Summary
Dustin takes the leap on an unassuming Monday afternoon in early May.
“You want me to– what?” Eddie’s voice squeaks a little on the final word.
“Kiss me,” Dustin says matter-of-factly, not bothering to hide the blush that has risen to his cheeks. “Look, I know you’re gay. I… think I might be, too. But I’m not sure. I need more data.”

Dustin asks Eddie to help him test two hypotheses:
Hypothesis 1: Dustin is gay. Hypothesis 2: Steve Harrington is gay.
Dustin thinks this may help him with his final (and most important) hypothesis: if both things are true, then maybe he has a chance after all.But Dustin may have forgotten some crucial variables. Namely, Steve’s feelings and his own. Emotional fallout ensues.
A story that takes place in a canon divergent world where Vecna never targets Hawkins after the events of Season 3. Events occur in May of Dustin's freshman year. Dustin is 15 and Steve is 19
