    Summary

    Jonathan Byers has always known what he is — a freak. Hawkins High made sure he never forgot it. Between a missing brother, a mother unraveling, and the weight of keeping his family from collapsing, Jonathan doesn’t have time to think about himself, much less the way his eyes linger on Steve Harrington.

    Summary

    Somewhere, suffocated by the rest of logical thought, Jonathan wonders if this is all just an extension of the pattern of his life. If this is his purpose, in a cosmic sort of way: things happen to him so that they don’t happen to Will. He got the worst of Lonnie so Will didn't have to. He got less of their mother so Will could get more. And now he gets this.
    It’s a terrible thing to think.

    In 2004, Will asks Jonathan to be his best man. Scenes from a wedding.
