Summary
“Nancy, we gotta go, we can’t save him,” he hears Jonathan say, and just as he watches Nancy raise her gun, something tears through his back.
It’s heat and pain and blackness ripping through his chest, it’s tears on Jonathan’s face, it’s Nancy pulling the trigger, and they need to move they need to move they need to move and he can’t move and everything is going black and breathing doesn’t exist anymore so with whatever breath his lungs can gather, he yells.
“Run,” he gasps out, more wheeze than word, and he feels warm blood soaking his abdomen. The thing in his chest is holding him up now, his body limp, every nerve screaming as his vision blurs. He can feel its body pulsing inside him.
Nancy’s wide eyes narrow. Steve hears a bang, and he’s dead.

Steve never really thought he'd get a second chance.

Summary
Any time he returned to mom, she was loose and laughing and had that smell again. One time she sloshed red wine onto his white trainers and laughed about it even though he was seconds from bursting into tears.
This time, though -- the last time he truly asked his father for anything -- she looked at him from her position on Mrs Diver's chaise-longue and allowed her face to soften in sympathy at his puffy bottom lip and half-formed tears. She pulled him into her lap, all silks and furs and wine on her breath and said:
"You walk around the world like you've got a layer of skin missing, Stevie. Like everything hurts you that bit more."
Steve doesn't remember much after that, figuring he fell asleep. But he wonders if that's how El feels; walking around this world that has taken so much from her -- that had given her so little in the first place. At least Steve has a mom, even if she is perpetually intoxicated. At least he has a dad, even if that dad hates him.
El had Hopper, and the Russians took him from her. From them. The Russians murdered him and god, Steve wishes it had been him instead.

Summary
Ms Byers hums at that, squashes the butt of her cigarette against the side of her house like it’s no big deal, and tightens the knot of his laces.
He hadn’t even noticed they’d come undone.
“Remember what I said about the kids being tough?”
He nods, struck speechless by her thoughtless affection.
“You’re pretty tough too. You take all these hard hits and then you stand back up and take another and another.”
Her small hands, stiff with the cold, squeeze at his foot before she rises; barely taller than him even though he’s still sitting down.
“You know you don’t have to do that, right?”

Hopper sighs. An hour ago he was watching blood gush out of Steve Harrington’s leg in rivers, so this isn’t even the worst case scenario of the night.
