Summary
‘We’re good together,’ Harrington says to the darkness above. Not a question. Matter of fact. He turns to Billy, a smile sweet enough to make Billy want to do something reckless. Something stupid. ‘I’m telling you, heartbreaker. We’re gonna be unstoppable.’
Billy wants to ask. If he means tomorrow. If he means just for the game.
Wants to ask if he means forever.
He’s never wanted anyone to mean forever before.
or; falling (in love), the hard way

Summary
“Why are you sitting over here anyway?" Steve asks. "Haven’t you heard? I’m a social pariah who got beat up by Jonathan Byers for trying to beg Nancy to take me back.”
Billy flicks a disgusted look at the table in the far corner where Jonathan and Nancy are eating together. “Seriously? That’s better than having people know I whooped your ass?”
"I've faced down actual interdimensional monsters. After that, small town gossip really loses its threat."
"Sure, because it's better to be known as the loser that Byers tried to kill twice." Billy stares at Steve who has clearly lost his mind.
“Weirdly, I don’t hear you apologizing for nearly killing me,” Steve says pointedly.

Agitation (or disturbance of the mind) by Yikes_Writes

Summary
Steve Harrington is a liar.
He always has been.
Nearly everything about him is a perfectly crafted facade.
From the story of his family’s move to Hawkins when he was eight, to the smile that slides easily onto his face when he tells Robin I’m fine.
Steve is a liar.
But it's all out of necessity. All for the greater of some good he isn’t all that clear on anymore.
It was always about protection.
Protecting his friends and everyone in Hawkins from the truth about Hawkins National Laboratory.
Then it was about protecting himself from his powers.- Language:

Summary
Max rolls up on her skateboard. She’s got this serious look on her, with her brows curved down, her mouth a firm straight line. “I need a ride to the hospital.”
Steve’s up in a heartbeat, smashing his cigarette beneath his sneaker and fishing his car keys out of his back pocket. “Are you alright? Are you hurt?”
Max stops storming across his lawn. She sucks her lower lip between her teeth and Steve sees the battle in her clear blue eyes about whether or not to cry. “I’ve gotta go see Billy, okay?”

Summary
"And Billy – he died. He knows this.
Or, doesn’t know this. Not really. But he’s figured it out. Why else would he be sentenced to a hellscape like this, tossed away into nothing like the piece of trash he was.
And he had wallowed for, like, a week or something, after he'd been dropped in here. Maybe longer. Probably longer. Time is different here. Makes his head spin.
And then he bucked up and swallowed his tears because these bat-bird things were annoying the living fuck out of him. What else was he supposed to do? He wasn’t presented with another option.
And he toughs it out. He doesn’t know how long it’s been. Too long.
He makes do. He– survives. Maybe not thrives, but he survives, and that counts for something.
And now, Steve fucking Harrington is spit from the ground. Shirtless."
OR
Billy finds his way into season 4. He's stubborn like that.

Summary
‘I’m sorry’ will never be in Billy’s vocabulary. They are just two dirty words that liars and cowards use. But he knows what it means to be sorry.
Billy picks up a butterfly bandage, holds it between his fingers for Steve to see. Waits for Steve to drop his chin in a nod, and then presses it into place against Steve’s busted eyebrow. It’s the best Billy has to give.
This probably isn’t going to work out. This thing Billy’s been trying to have with Steve since he got to Hawkins. Steve’s got these soft edges where Billy’s all blunt and sharp.
Billy drags his fingertips down the side of Steve’s face, presses his thumb against the scar he didn’t leave, and lifts a brow. “How many fights do you lose, Harrington?”
Steve grins, a half-formed thing that is sharp and sad at the same time. “All of them.”

“Am I dreaming,” Billy fucking Hargrove says, all ripped leather jacket and blue jeans, and Steve spits out more blood because he’s getting nauseous about it, the image in front of him, mouth filling up awfully quickly. “Or is that you, Harrington?”

Summary
‘So,’ Tommy says around a mouthful of fries, ‘what the fuck is the deal with you and Hargrove?’
And that’s really the goddamn question, isn’t it?
He wants to know Billy. Wants to know why he is the way he is. Wants to be able to figure out what the fuck he’s thinking when he looks at Steve like that, when he touches him like it doesn’t mean shit and like it means everything all at once. Wants to know why he talks so much shit, why he needs to fight, where all that fire comes from. Why he’s so volatile, why he’s such an asshole, how he can be so fucking mean and so fucking sweet in the span of seconds, at the same time, even.

Don't Leave Me (Hanging on the Telephone) by Glitter_Bug
Fandoms: Stranger Things (TV 2016)
05 Oct 2022

Summary
Steve takes a deep breath and picks up the receiver, “Hello?”
The kitchen lights flicker once, so quickly that he convinces himself that he imagined it, and then there’s a crackling, a kind of static-y hiss against his ear, and the rasp of a voice, “Hey, I need, uh, police?”
There’s something familiar about the voice, something twitching at the back of his mind, the tip of his tongue, but Steve can’t quite place it.
“Hello? Anyone there? Please?” it comes again, laced with so much desperation that it has the back of Steve’s neck prickling uncomfortably, “I need- shit, I need help.”
AKA Billy is trapped in the Upside Down and somehow manages to call Steve's house.
