    Summary

    "The other shoe hasn't dropped yet and he knows it. For crying out loud, Steve was working in the mall wearing nothing but a blue sailor ensemble, white tube socks, and a stupid floppy tie. (When Jonathan first saw it, he called it "cute" with the expression of a man that was trying and failing at hiding a laugh)."

    or, Starcourt, Robin Buckley, and taking care of the guy you love.

    Summary

    “Okay.” Steve buries his head in his arms face down on the coffee table in his basement. “Okay. A major lab incident I can get behind. Shit, the kid going missing I can understand. But what the hell do you mean there are monsters now?!”

    “He didn’t say monsters,” Paperboy rolls his eyes, which looks really funny since he is doing a headstand against the wall. “Don’t be dramatic, Finney.”

    “Griffin said the words ‘slimy tentacle vines of unimaginable cosmic horrors’” Steve deadpans, still face down.

    “That doesn’t immediately mean monster.”

    -

    Steve Harrington has heard the phone ringing ever since he got out of the basement. Moving to Hawkins, Indiana didn't do much to change that.

    Summary

    “Sure, alright,” Eddie agreed. His expression softened, and he rolled his shoulders back, opening up. “I’ll watch your little sheepies for you.”

    “Really?” Steve grinned, “Man, that’s awesome. Thank you so much—”

    “I just gotta ask one thing,” Eddie interrupted, leaning over the table and closer to Steve.

    “Yeah, man,” he said, voice tight. “Anything.”

    “Why’d you leave me down there, Steve?”

    ***

    18 months after the earthquake, Steve starts having bad dreams. Which wouldn’t mean anything if it weren’t for the nosebleeds and the headaches. Hearing that clock can’t be great. Then Will feels Vecna getting close, and Steve thinks it might be best for him to sacrifice himself. He’s nice like that.

    Summary

    He throws the car in park and removes the key before leaning forward slightly to rest his forehead on the steering wheel. The car shakes as the kids scramble out of it, slamming the doors closed behind them. Each resulting WHAM sets off fireworks behind Steve’s closed eyelids.

    He just needs a minute. One minute of silence. Then, he’ll go inside to wrangle the kids and clean up before Mrs. Byers gets back.

    A hand lands on his shoulder and he jumps, whipping his head to see who’s touching him. Pain floods over the left side of his head and down through his neck and shoulders. He presses a hand into his left eyebrow, trying to chase the pain away with the pressure.

    Dustin still sits in the passenger seat next to him. His hand tightens on his shoulder, eyes blown wide.

    “Steve, hey, you okay?”

    What happens to Steve after season 2 ends?
