Summary
“It doesn’t sound dumb.”
“Nah, it does, but that’s about all I could get from it. Except for the bit that made me think of you.”
“What bit was that? The genitals?” The hand in Steve’s hair moves, fingers tracing lightly down his neck. He shivers. Jonathan rubs his back.
“No. Well, okay, yeah, that too, but it was… about heaven. Heaven and hell.”
“Oh.”

Summary
Steve's chest rises and falls with a sickening stuttered rhythm. His face shines, soaked with sweat, and Will remembers what it looks like wet with blood. Sweat is just as horrifying. Steve's enemy is no longer one that he can beat back with his fists, with a weapon in his hands and a loyal troop at his back. This time, the danger is coming from within. Will envisions strong, tanned hands grasping desperately at his own thin, pale fingers, imagines holding on as Steve mumbles and shakes in fever-induced delirium, thinks about how he would be the constant, the lighthouse on Steve's dark ocean as he fought back the infection and came clawing back into reality. After a long, sleepless night, Steve would blink his eyes open, looking first at the hand enfolded in his own, eyes following the arm up to find Will, the silent sentinel, by his side through it all. He would smile, an exhausted, exuberant grin, eyes shining with devotion, opening his mouth to say—
"You’re insane."
Jonathan heaves a long-suffering sigh, the same one Will hears every time they stop for gas and Jonathan sees the prices. "I've taken care of Will a dozen times when he came down with something just like this, I know what I'm doing."

Summary
“Hey, shithead.”
Max’s head whips to find Steve leaning against the doorway, hands deep in the pockets of his khakis and his ankles crossed casually, like he hangs out in this funeral home all the time.
“Oh.” She clears her throat. “Hey. Asshole.”
“If you’re trying to hide, you might want to shut the door,” he says, stepping inside and lightly pushing the door until it clicks shut. The room feels so much smaller.
“I didn’t want to freak anyone out.”

Summary
“Nancy, we gotta go, we can’t save him,” he hears Jonathan say, and just as he watches Nancy raise her gun, something tears through his back.
It’s heat and pain and blackness ripping through his chest, it’s tears on Jonathan’s face, it’s Nancy pulling the trigger, and they need to move they need to move they need to move and he can’t move and everything is going black and breathing doesn’t exist anymore so with whatever breath his lungs can gather, he yells.
“Run,” he gasps out, more wheeze than word, and he feels warm blood soaking his abdomen. The thing in his chest is holding him up now, his body limp, every nerve screaming as his vision blurs. He can feel its body pulsing inside him.
Nancy’s wide eyes narrow. Steve hears a bang, and he’s dead.

Steve never really thought he'd get a second chance.

Summary
Ok, so he's no Will Byers, but Steve thinks he can pretty definitively say at this point that he's got shit luck. Sure, he was born with a silver spoon and whatever, and he was loved by the smartest, strongest, bravest girl in the world (however briefly), and he's got a gaggle of preteens who look at him like he's Clark Kent and sometimes act like he's transformed into Superman, but still. Shit luck.
It happens on a Wednesday. His third day back at school since Billy kicked his shit in so badly that Chief Hopper was willing to leave his adopted super-child at the Byers' for three hours to drive him to the ER.
