   Summary

   “Is he like this with everyone?”

   Dustin pretends he can’t hear the question. Or the rest of the conversation.

   “Just… he’s always angry and yelling at me, and I was wondering if I did something to piss him off eternally, or if he’s like that with everyone.”

   Instead, he stares at the floor and holds the ice pack to his face. He’s held it there for too long and it hurts. He doesn’t move it away.

   -or-

   Steve and Dustin have a heart to heart in the car (crying ensues)
