    Summary

    Restless, wanting, defiant.
    Body, heart and mind at odds with each other,
    it's a dance Nancy Wheeler has gotten very good at over the years.
    But one sleepless night, she just can't take it anymore.
    And so she ends up
    freezing, yearning, exhausted
    in front of Steve Harrington's door.

    Summary

    "What he needs is a freaking nap and an ice pack. He needs to know what the hell he's going to do with himself the day after tomorrow, and next week, and the week after that, because right now playing basketball and working for his dad's company and doing keg stands at Tina's house seem like memories that belong to another guy, a million universes away."

    Steve deals with the aftermath. (Post-S2, a little angsty and vaguely shippy, but mostly Steve just trying to sort his stuff out.)

    Summary

    “... you selfish, chauvinistic meathead!” Jonathan bursts out, eyes flaring with a look Steve is familiar enough with to label as rage.

    Sometimes, Steve feels like the brunt of a cosmic joke. Like someone has put into everyone’s heads that everything is Steve’s fault, like yelling at him is going to solve things.

    “Call me a meathead, call me an asshole, call me… whatever the hell you like. But I’m going, Byers. You can come,” Steve pulls at the handbrake, throwing open the car door and jumping out.

    His shoes crunch against the loose gravel as he turns to glance at Jonathan, one hand tight around the door. “Or you can tell yourself we’re gonna find Hopper sitting here all night in this piece of junk. Because newsflash, Byers—” Steve braces his forearm against the doorframe, “We aren’t.”
