I walk into school with thoughts of y/n in my mind. I just.. Can’t stop thinking of her. Her amazing personality, friendship with the kids… plus her cute face is a nice bonus. I’ve been wanting to ask her out for a few days but.. Fuck, i’m too nervous. What if she rejects me..? Or worse, calls me ‘buddy’. I can’t help but sigh out loud as I think to myself, i’ve never had this much of an intense crush. I mean… Nancy… yeah… but, y/n is different. I’ve known her for a while now, and I’ve been crushing on her for a while too. I can’t stop thinking about her, she’s all that has mattered to me recently. Suddenly I feel a hand grasp onto my shoulder and hug me from behind.
“Wha-!” I turn around quickly and see the smiling face of… her. y/n, as beautiful as ever. My heart felt like it was going to burst every time that I saw her. Her eyes seemed to shine, her hair fell perfectly, and… god that smile of hers.
“Sorry for scaring you, Steve. How are you?” she said happily with a happy smirk on her face.
“I was doing alright, but now i’m feeling..” I bring my hand up to my chin and act as if i’m thinking intensely. I hold up a few fingers, “three times better, thanks to you showing up”
She widens her eyes slightly, “Aw! I didn’t know a walking can of hair gel could be so sweet!”
“Hey!”
“I’m just kidding~! That was super.. Super sweet, Steve” she says joyfully, I see her cheeks swell up with a light pink.
My heart is going to erupt. That’s the first… first… ANYTHING i’d ever said to her that didn’t come out completely awful. I feel myself start to sweat, and quickly wipe my forehead. I turn around quickly, “Aha! Well- y/n we better get going, right?”
“Oh- oh God, yeah, I didn’t see the time”
“Pfft. Alright, let’s go” I say as calmly as I can. I.. I’ve made my decision.. I’m going to ask her out tomorrow after school! I just have to before some undeserving hound-dog of a boy asks her out. I can do this!
I walk out of school, the thought of y/n still clinging onto my thoughts. I look around the sea of students leaving to see if I can find her. I quickly find Dustin and y/n chatting it up near the parking lot. Mike, Will, Lucas, and Max behind him. I smile when I see y/n, and start jogging over to them. They all quickly turn to me, Dustin giving me a weird.. Glare?
“Hey, you guys” I say as I step up to them, smiling even bigger as I see y/n’s face. y/n blushes and turns to Dustin,
“Ok, Dusty, I’ve gotta go now~” she says waving her hand a little bit, she looks to me for a split second, “Sorry Steve, we can talk tomorrow!” she quickly runs of not saying another word.
Wha..? What was that about… Did I do something wrong earlier? I look over to Dustin whose glare hasn’t failed to weaken. “Hey bud..?” I say quietly. He steps closer to me and pats my arm gently,
“Hey.. pal’ he says smiling
“Uh..? What’s up with the smile?”
Max chimes in with a smug smirk on her face,
“y/n told us about how you’ve been acting lately! Do you have like a crush on her or something?” she steps closer “She said you’ve been acting kinda off! And she told us what you said earlier this morning! Gosh- she said it so calmly too! Like she doesn’t see what that means~” Mike pats her shoulder
“Max, calm down on lover boy” he says quietly.
I feel my heart stop. Have I SERIOUSLY been acting that obvious lately? I open my mouth to defend myself but Dustin speaks up before I can,
“Steve.. How about you come with us back to Mike’s house. We were going to play some games. But I think we have something else to do now” I look behind his shoulder and see the other three chattering with excitement behind him, I sigh and nod. It’s not like I can just not go with them. Knowing the four, one of them would probably blab to y/n about my feelings by tomorrow afternoon if I don’t oblige.
“Ok-ok but, you can’t tell y/n. I can’t let her know yet---” Dustin hushes me and purses his lips.
“Shh.. I know you’ve got a mega boner for y/n”
“DUSTIN”
“A MEGA HEART BONER” lucas says loudly. I see some weird stares come from some ongoing students, I step closer to them.
“Okokok- shut up, you guys” I say with panic in my voice. “Let’s just go” I see all their eyes light up, and they all begin simultaneously giggling. I sigh yet again, and start stomping over to my car.
“Wait!” Mike yells out to me, I turn around and stare at them like they’re insane.
“What..?”
“What about our bikes!” he said with an annoyed tone in his voice
I stop for a second, looking at my car then back to the four bikes.
“Grab my rope from the trunk”
“Why the hell do you have rope, Steve” Dustin asks
“To tie things to the roof”
I park the car in front of Mike's house, “Alright, we’re here” I grumble as I hop out of the car. They all jump out almost immediately, and they all start heading towards the house. Dustin stops and turns to me and looks at the car. There are three bikes being held onto the roof of the car by two ropes. Barely.
“Are the bikes gonna be alright?”
“Yeah. Mike’s is in the trunk. We can come back out and get them later.. I guess”
Dustin shrugs and guides me into the house. We’re greeted by Karen, AKA Mike’s mom, who’s starting dinner. She smiles at the kids and greets then and turns her head at me.
“Steven? What are you doing here?” she says tilting her head to the side.
I chuckle nervously, slowly following the kids. “Ha.. Just dropping off the group.. Lucas’ bike was actin’ wonky so they asked me to just pick ‘em up.” I give her a cheesy grin. “So now i’m just gonna hang out with them for a bit because they invited me to play dungeons and dragons!” She narrows her eyes at me.
“Oh..?” she looks out to my car and stares at the bikes that are being held onto the roof.
“O..kay” she nods “Oh- and Hopper dropped off Jane a little bit ago.”
“We still call her Eleven” Mike mumbles to himself as he starts going down the stairs into the basement.
I start following Mike down to the basement. They all start chatting away as I sit down uncomfortably in the corner. I see them greet Eleven, she’s just hanging out in the corner alone. Suddenly, she looks over to me and then over to Mike.
“Why is he here..?” she says quietly to the group.
“MEGA BONER” Will half yells, a playful punch quickly coming from Lucas.
“Steve-man here, has a crush on y/n!” Mike says proudly, as he delivers the ‘exciting’ news to her. Elevens eyes widen as she looks over to me quickly,
“Lucas explained to me what ‘Crushes’ are, once.” she says looking over to Lucas and Max. “Lucas your crush is M-” Lucas hushes her almost instantly and looks towards me.
“Yeah! Steve has a crush on y/n” he says, changing the subject. All of them except for Dustin start cackling quietly at the words.
“Come on guys, stop! We need to talk business” Dustin says silencing them.
“Business?”
“Yes, Steven. Business” Dustin whispers as he steps towards me. He motions for the others to come sit down and they do. Dustin clears her throat,
“So you gonna ask her out?” Max says leaning into the table, staring me dead in the eyes. I feel myself start to sweat waterfalls. Hell. I clear my throat in a panic and put my elbow onto the table.
“No-”
“What do you mean no?” Will asks leaning into the table, as Max did a few moments ago.
“I mean- I.. I just don’t know?” I say pathetically as I slump back into my chair. “I wanna but.. I don’t know if i’m going to.. I just have so much to th-”
“Stop with this bullshit, Steve” Dustin says, the others quickly turning to him.
“Bullshit” I hear Eleven whisper under her breath.
“You know you like y/n. You know you want y/n. You gonna GET y/n” Dustin runs his hand through his hair and sighs dramatically. “Ask. her. Out” he says tapping his finger onto the table with every word. The others all nod in agreement and shoot daggers over to me after a few moments.
“Come on! She’s so awesome!” Max shouts, nearly jumping out of her chair. “She’s super cool! And so are you! She can settle for a guy like you! Hell- she’s out of your league, even!” Dustin nudges her shoulder, silencing her.
“Nice way to give him that confidence, Max” he mutters, she sits down and sulks silently. Will leans forward and attention is guided to him.
“I agree with Dustin. If you want her, you’ve gotta go after her, Steve” his eyes are lit with ambition, a look I haven’t seen from him in a while. “You don’t have much time, anyways”
“What do you mean.. time?” I ask
“I mean. Isn’t y/n one of the most praised girls at the high school? Pretty, smart, good personality, AND gets along with us? Like.. a total-”
“BABE” I nearly shout
“Steve. Shut up.” Dustin huffs as he looks back over to Will.
“... a total catch.” he finishes. The whole group lets out a series of ‘Oh’s as he concludes.
My mind has ten million thoughts crashing around, and they’re all screaming at me. I know I have a crush on y/n, I don’t need a group of middle schoolers telling me to act on it. I will… once i’m mentally prepared.
“Steve- if it helps you ask her out quicker…” lucas leans closer into the table, and whispers. “I saw a few guys checking out y/n as she left.” An exaggerated gasp comes from Dustin almost immediately after.
“STEVE. Did you hear that?” Dustin yells, slamming his hand onto the table. “Other men were checking out y/n!” he sits back into his chair and looks at the others like they’re insane for not reacting the same way. “Steve- you HAVE to ask her out tonight” he proposes, surprising me and the others with his the idea.
“Dustin- maybe tonight is too soon?” Mike says leaning closer to Dustin, Dustin rolls his eyes in response.
“No. The ladies LOVE romantic and out-of-the-blue gestures, Mike”
“I’m not sure if that’s always true, love-expert-Dustin” Max says with a smug expression.
“Pfsh.. Listen. I have a game plan..” Dustin stands up and looks at each of us for a moment, “Mike has an old boombox. We have some good ol’ you know.. ‘Foreigner’.. To romance her” he says while motioning towards a boombox that's sitting in the corner with a bunch of crap thrown around it. Wait.. Wait a minute..
“Wait a minute Dustin- What says I want to do this? And- and a boombox? Foreigner?” I sigh with an annoyed tone in my voice, “I guess it is a good song..”
“Yes, Steven, It is a good song” he starts walking over to the boombox, “Your gonna show her what love is” he mumbles under his breath. He picks it up and stomps back over to the table, nearly slamming it onto the table. “Even if you don’t wanna go through with this plan, you’re gonna” he sits down again. “Just play the song, get into her house through the window, then..”
“Then?” Eleven asks as Dustin’s plan seems to crumble
“THEN.. you tell her.. ‘y/n.. Can you show me what love is?’.. She’ll be yours”
The whole group seems to gag in sync. Dustin groans, “Fine, fine. Then.. you just.. Do whatever seems right?” he grumbles. They all nod and then look over to me, as if they want my criticism.
“Uh.. ok.. Ok..ok..okok..” I say anxiously, “But i’m only doing this because I know for a fact if I don’t you’re all gonna go running to y/n’s house and blab about it” they all seem to light up at my words.
“Ok! Let’s all get going the-” Dustin starts but I quickly stand up and grab the boombox
“No, Dustin. I never said you could come. This is my moment, alright?” I say sternly, looking Dustin in the eyes. He sighs with a hint of disappointment within it, and nods. They all start whispering to one another and I stand up shakily to go confess to.. Her. Just the thought of asking her makes my heart skip a beat, not only because of the thought of her accepting. Because i’m also so damn worried she’ll reject me.. That she’ll feel awkward around me if she rejects me. I hear the kids yelling shouts of encouragement as I leave. I wave goodbye to Karen, and walked out to my car. Shit the bikes. I take about ten minutes to get the bikes off and out of my car, leaving them at Mike’s door.
I stomp back over to my car, grabbing the boombox off of the roof of the car, and speed off to see y/n. My heart is racing miles per minute, and I feel my head fill with excitement and unease as I get closer. I pull into her neighborhood and stop a few houses down from y/n’s. I grab the boombox and run to her house, sneaking around the back. I set the boombox down into the wet grass and look up to her rooms window. The light is on.. I take a deep breath and look down to the boombox. I pick it up gently… and toss it a few feet away. I don’t need foreigner to intrigue y/n. I look around and see a small pile of pebbles near the back door.. Perfect. I go and pick a few up, and glance back over to her bedroom door. It isn’t that high up… I think? I toss a pebble up to her window and wait to see if she heard it, and she doesn’t. I toss a few more, and I finally see a shadow appear at the window. Shit. Should I REALLY have done this tonight..? God..
“Steven~?” She says in a surprised tone as she looks down to me. “What are you doing here..? It’s like.. Nine now” she looks around me and tilts her head as she makes eye contact again. I take another deep breath and take a step forward,
“y/n.. I really need to talk with you. Now” I say as confidently as I can possibly manage. She gives me a concerned look and nods a few moments later.
“Okay.. we can talk but.. I don’t have any rope or anything. I don’t even know if we own a ladder..” She leans out of the window and looks towards the back door. “Oh! You can sneak through the back door. The stairs are right next to-” I immediately begin striding towards the door, I’m determined to tell her how I feel. It didn’t hit me as intensely as it did now but… she really is something amazing. I just can’t wait and expect for other guys to not ask her out, and I know that eventually she’d accept one of them. I can’t let that happen; I can’t let this opportunity slip out of my fingers. I open the door, surprised its unlocked, and step in quietly. I sneakily step towards the stairs… and begin sprinting up them as silently as I can. I reach the top and head towards the door at the end of the hall as quickly and hushed as I could. I quickly open the door and close it softly behind me, y/n walks over to me with a puzzled expression plastered onto her face.
“Steve- can you please explain to me now why you had to be here so.. Unexpectedly?” she says with deep concern within her words. I take a deep look into her eyes, and walk over to her bed to sit down. She follows me and sits beside me, never taking her eyes away from my gaze.
“y/n.. I.. i’ve really been wanting to talk to you about this for months now.. And- well.. A group of munchkins gave me the courage to talk to you about this earlier..” I gently take her hand and hold it softly. “y/n.. You’ve helped me learn so much over the past months we’ve known each other. You’re kind.. Brave.. Smart.. Creative.. And so much more. And I just.. Feel like you should know something”
She stares at me silently for a moment, before gasping and gripping my hand tightly,
“Steve- are you dying?!” she says with anxiousness swelling in her voice and gleaming eyes. Wha.. what? I tilt my head and raise one of my eyebrows,
“y/n, i’m not dying. I.. I think I love you” her eyes widen and she loosens her grip on my hand.
“Steve..?”
“y/n. I love you, so much. I need you to know that, and I need you to know that now. Tonight, so that even if you don’t return the feelings i’ll know that I at least told you” I lean closer to her, and grab onto her hand with a slight grip. “I wanted to ask you.. If-” I feel myself choke for a moment. I want her to be mine so badly, I want her to return these feelings and to let me protect her. I gulp down my nerves, “I wanted to ask you if you’d be okay with going on a date with me..?” I see her expression relax and her shoulders slump down, she gives me a warm smile.
“My walking hair gel..” she chuckles and rolls her eyes playfully, “I mean- Steve.. Of course I’d go on a date with you”
I feel my heart skip a solid 3 beats. I smile brightly and grasp onto her hand tighter, “Really?” I ask, with disbelief. She laughs and nods, God, that beautiful laugh.
“Yes, Steve. I’d love to.. I actually can’t believe you’d ask me..” she says, blushing an intense shade of pink. I smile and practically feel the joy oozing out of me, I lean closer to her and bring her hand up to my chest.
“y/n.. Can.. can I kiss you..?” I brush loose strands of hair away from her eyes. She smiles and nods a small nod. I lean closer to her and kiss her gently. Her face is warm and I feel my heart burst at the seam with pure joy. She leans away after a moment and smiles warmly,
“y/n.. I love you”
“I love you too, Steve. So… does that mean you’ll buy my popcorn if we go to a movie as a date?”
“What?” I raise my eyebrow and smirk, “is that all this is to you? You only want my popcorn money?” I say acting as if i’m offended.
“Pffft! No~ Steve I was kidding stop~”
I chuckle and kiss her forehead, “I know.. y/n… I love you”

Part 1 Part 3
To say getting an unconscious teenage boy to your bedroom at 2 am was hard would be an understatement. One, he was unconscious and heavy as Hell. Two, it was 2 am and getting him to your bedroom with your mother sleeping just down the hall in a quiet manner was difficult as fuck.
You managed to get Billy there safely kicking your door closed before tightening your left arm around his torso while your right arm held onto his hand that was hanging over your shoulder. You stumbled to your bed dropping him onto your bed causing him to groan in his sleep and roll onto his back with his feet hanging off the bed still in a deep sleep.
You stare at him for a moment taking his face in. Even though he was bleeding with dried blood on him he looked the calmest and at peace he's ever been. When he was around anybody he would be this tough hard exterior of a person and not show any emotion unless it was anger or sarcasm. With you he was better, sure he joked and was sarcastic but he was rarely angry around you. He smiled and showed you that he cared. Without going to far about his personal life or how he really felt.
Yeah you knew about his life at home, but that never meant you brought it up. If you asked anything remotely relating his at home life he shut down and pushed you away, that's the last thing you wanted.
You sighed and walked to your bathroom connected to your bedroom and grabbed the first aid kit under the bathroom cabinet and a wet towel before kicking your shoes off and walking back over to your bed. Setting the kit down on the bed you knelt down and pulled off his boots and socks before standing and crawling onto the bed and sitting criss cross next to his head.
You sat and cleaned off his face wiping off the blood before disinfecting his cuts and putting small patches on them before pulling him up onto the bed more so he was comfortable on the pillow.
You sighed climbing into bed lying next to him staring at his face. You couldn’t help but admire him and fall even more in love. You were upset at him of course for what he did that wasn’t okay. You couldn’t help your feelings, you could just live with them. Closing your eyes you drifted off to sleep exhausted from the day and excited for some much needed rest which came quickly.
Waking up with a start you realized immediately you were sweaty, like you had just had a nightmare except you couldn’t remember a thing about it. Then you remember one thing, Dustin. You shot up out of bed rolling out of it almost falling and running to your bedroom door throwing it open to see Dustin standing right there about to open the door. You let out a shaky breath tearing up slightly before grabbing him and pulling him into a tight hug holding him as close as you can. You could feel him shaking slightly holding onto your shirt with tight fists before burying his face into your chest.
“ Oh Dusty” You breathed out, closing your eyes feeling a tear roll down your cheek as you put a hand on his head. He chuckles softly sniffing before looking up at you with slightly pink eyes and a big smile that could win the hearts of anyone who walked by. You were so scared that something bad would happen. You knew Steve was fully capable of watching them and you knew he had a special relationship with your brother but you could never help but worry for him.
“ I stayed the night at Wills with everyone to make sure he was okay, are you okay?” He asked, being cut off by a low groaning noise. We both turn looking into my bedroom seeing Billy stir in his sleep. “ He’s here?!” He practically yelled making me shush him. He nods understanding before closing your door and walking back to his room. It was easily 4 in the morning as the sun hasn't risen yet and you still felt sluggish. You walk over quietly looking down on him on the bed as he came too.
He opens his eyes for a moment but closes them again quickly your desk lamp light apparently being enough to irritate his eyes in the dark atmosphere. You reach over clicking it off before looking back at him seeing his eyes peeking open softly. He stared at you and smiles softly, his rare little smiles making your heart flutter.
“ Hey princess” He speaks softly sitting up with a grunt not tearing his eyes away from you.
“ Hey asshole” he hums softly his smile fading all the memories of last night flooding into his mind all at once. He looks down at his hands seeing the cuts on his knuckles before looking back up at your sad and disappointed face. He didn’t want to see this face. He didn’t want you to be disappointed in him. He stands as quickly as he could facing you and walking as close as he could get before you hold your hand up stopping him.
“ Spill it Hargrove because I know you didn’t just decide to beat up a 13 year old boy for no reason.” You tear up softly shaking your head, “ What happened?” You whispered seeing his jaw clench as he looks away from you looking out the window at the dusk woods. He sighs rubbing his face before sitting back on the bed holding his in his hands as he sits on the edge of your bed. You walk in front of him taking his face in your hands making him look up at you.
“ Max went missing while on my watch and my dad found out before I could leave the house. I knew she was fine she’s fully capable of taking care of herself I just didn’t know where she was. He...got really angry as he does and was really rough and made me come look for Max.”
“ Did he hurt you?” You ask immediately. He chuckles sadly.
“ When doesn’t he hurt me? But Max...She doesn’t deserve that pain. She doesn’t need to be involved” He explains then it hits you.
“ You are mean and protective of her so she doesn’t have to deal with your dad?” You asked seeing him nod rubbing his cheek against your palm affectionately.
“ Oh Billy…” You whisper dropping your hands making him look up at you the lack of affection worrying him. You always showed him affection somehow. As far as holding hands to as little as a hand on his arm or back. “ You’ve messed up” He felt like his heart was breaking.
“ I know, I know how awful of a person I am and it won’t be easy to come back from something like this. My anger always gets the best of me….but I want to be better” he stands right in front of you before placing his big hand on your cheek rubbing his thumb against your cheek softly his eyes were obviously glossy. “ I want to be better for you” He whispers sniffing. Your lip quivers, your heart was breaking for Billy.
“ I know you can Billy” You place your hand on his tangling your fingers together. “ But it’s going to take time, I...I can’t just forgive you after what you did.” He nods sniffing.
“ I understand, I wouldn’t forgive me right away either...I’ll make it up to you. I promise.”
“ I know you will, let’s start with an apologizing to Lucas and Steve first.”
“ Of course.”
After Billy apologized to Steve and Lucas events were forgiven. None of them were friends by any means but it was a mutual forgiveness. The events of that day weren’t spoken about. He didn’t question why you were at Will Byers house with 4 children and Steve Harrington and the house being a wreck while as you didn’t bring up the fight.
Billy was better at school as well, staying out of trouble and keeping his grades average so he didn’t get questioned by the teachers about his future and present grades. That didn’t stop him from being the snarky sarcastic man that he was, which you didn’t mind. It made your school life a little interesting.
You sat in Chemistry with Billy beside you as you mixed the green liquid with the clear liquid causing it to foam up and poor over the test beaker. You push you goggles up your nose making sure they stayed secure on your face before you jotted down some notes in your notebook for the project you both were working on together. Billy sat staring at you a soft look in his eyes that you failed to see. He loved the way your nose scrunched up slightly when you were thinking about your work or when you bite your lip at the confusing problems you had to answer. He loved everything about you even the little things.
He was cut off from his admiring when a folded piece of paper landed in front of him having been tossed from another desk over. He looks up his eyebrows pulling together at the note in front of him before he looked up slightly to the right where the note came from. He instantly didn’t like what he was seeing. James, another school jock who was on the basketball team with him smirked at Billy from where he was sitting at his lab table leaning back against the seat not paying attention to anything that was happening with his partner or the experiment. He nodded towards the note then nodded towards you, where you sat minding your own business and enjoying the comfort of Billy's presence as you did your school work.
Billy growled softly before picking up the note, not looking or breaking eye contact with James, and crushed the paper between his fist a scowl plastered on his face. James narrowed his eyebrows before visible tensing and setting his feet flat on the ground before leaning forward resting his arms on his knees before cracking his knuckles. Billy could be considered a bad guy but James was extremely bad. He wanted James nowhere near you.
You look up noticing Billy’s sudden tense body his arm muscles visible tense. You frown resting your hand on his arm near his wrist.
“ Billy? What’s wrong “ You ask confused by his sudden behavior change. He looks at you his face softening at the worried look in his eyes. He shakes his head keeping the paper clenched in his fist but moved it into his lap for a brief moment dropping it to the floor before resting his hand on your knee.
“ It’s nothing.” He says smiling softly at you squeezing your knee softly before letting go. He knew he wasn’t redeemed enough yet to win your heart.
Little did he know he already held your heart.
You pulled your denim jacket tightly around you before lacing up your boots and walking out of your room. December in Indiana wasn’t very kind this year, so you bundled up with as many layers as you could without looking ridiculous.
You walk down to Dustins room just in time to see him walk out of his bedroom the smell of hairspray surrounding him in a subtle aroma. You smile down at your brother as he looks up at you smiling big.
“ look at you little brother, you clean up nicely” You say smiling at him before reaching out and straightening his bow tie. He frowns and swats your hands away before smirking.
“ I know I do, how do I look? “ He asks referencing to his hair. You smirk.
“ Steve tell you his secret?” Dustins eyes widen slightly, you chuckle. “ You look great Dusty. You’ll have so much fun.”
After bidding Dustin a fun night you watch as Steve drives down the road with him as they make their way to Hawkins Middle School for the annual Winter dance. You smiled walking to your car before climbing in. You would have taken him, hell you would have stayed and helped out at the dance. But you had somewhere more important to be.
After what seemed to be a long anxious drive you finally made it to the Hargrove home. You climb out of your car the cold winter air engulfing you in the darkness before you could even shut your car door. You make your way up to the front door noticing only Billy’s car was home. You knock softly on the hardwood door before stepping back a little and blowing out a breath seeing it clearly in the cool atmosphere.
The last thing Billy expected to see when he opened the door was you, bundled up in all of your layed your nose slightly red from being out in the december atmosphere just for a short amount of time. His eyes widen as his mouth opens slightly at the sight of you. He was wearing jeans and a light blue almost denim looking button up that of course wasn’t buttoned up all the way showing off his low hanging necklace.
You smile looking up at him a soft sparkle in your eye. “ Hi Billy “ you breath out making him smile. He gulps and takes your hand pulling you inside before closing the front door and walking into the house with you. He stops and turns around looking at you, the only light on in the room was the Christmas tree and from what you could guess was his room light from down the hall.
He was confused. Why were you here on a Friday night? You could be out doing something fun when instead you were at his home which was thankfully empty. He wouldn’t want you anywhere near it if his dad happened to be home.
“ Sweetheart, as much as I love having you hear, why are you here?” You smile softly before reaching into your back pocket pulling out a leather bracelet. It had multiple layers to it but was simple and beautiful looking even to Billy.
“ I brought you a gift.” You stated simple, grabbing his hand and placing the object into his hand softly before closing his hand letting his hand close around the bracelet. He frowns looking at you confused, you sigh. “ It was my grandfather. He loved this thing so much never saw him without it. Before he paced he gave it to me. Maybe he knew his time had come. “ Billy shakes his head in disbelief. Why would you give him something so special?
“ Why are you giving me this? This is something priceless sweetheart ” He asked confused looking up at you. All he could look at was the twinkle in your eyes reflecting from the light on the Christmas tree. You sighed and looking from the tree up at him.
“ Everyone deserves something special Billy, even you. Even though you’ve made mistakes and were kind of an asshole, you’ve apologised you know what you did wrong. So I’m giving you something from me that is special in hopes you’ll appreciate the special meaning from me to you…” You explained playing with your fingers.
Billy stared at you in disbelief. Someone actually cared for him, maybe even loved him. He put on the bracelet carefully not looking away from you before reaching up and cupping your face in his hands. He studied every aspect of your face. From the (e/c) to your eyes to the freckles and blemishes scattered across your cheeks. Your hair framed your face perfectly, and the color from the Christmas lights shined off your eyes as you stared up at him. Love written all over your face.
He couldn’t hold back anymore and pulled your face close connecting your lips together in a passionate first kiss. He moved his hands so one was holding your face gently as the other one was wrapped around your body holding you tightly to him as if you would disappear. Your hands bunched up on his shirt kissing him back just as passionately trying to poor as much love into the kiss as you could. You knew Billy didn’t feel like he deserved love, but he deserved your love and you were determined to show him.
When you both pull back you don’t pull away from each other. Billy rests his forehead against yours staring into your eyes as you smile softly.
“ I love you, Billy.” Billy almost didn’t hear you. He was in such disbelief at the words that just came out of your mouth that his breath caught in his throat.
“ Say it again.” He whispered tears welling up in his eyes. You tear up letting go of his shirt before reaching up without moving away from him and hold his face softly brushing a stray tear away that fell down his cheek.
“ I love you Billy Hargrove so much.” A few tears fell from your eyes to which Billy quickly wiped away. He breathed out a laugh smiling the biggest you’ve ever seen.
“ I love you too (y/n) so so much.” He pressed quick kisses against your lips making you giggle against him as you finally pull him close into a loving kiss.
This is the best thing he could ever ask for. You in his arms in love with him just as much as he was in love with you. He was a broken man from a broken home, he just needed someone to mend his broken heart and that was you. You already made him a better person in just a short amount of time who know what he’ll be like in the future with you. He felt that he didn’t deserve your love, but you thought otherwise. Billy was a man who was missing a part of him to keep him going, to keep him in the light of the world and to help build his future while also protecting him from everyone who tried to hurt him. You were everything he needed.
He never planned on letting you go.

Part 2 Part 3
“Hey, hey, hey!” Steve yelled gathering everyone's attention. He shakes his head. “ This is not happening” He stated firmly pointing at the askew of papers all over the house that laid out the tunnels for the demogorgons.
“ But-” Mike tried to explain but was quickly cut off.
“ No, no, no, no, no! No buts, I promised I’d keep you shitheads safe and that's exactly what I plan on doing. We're staying here on the bench and waiting for the starting team to do their job. Does everybody understand that?” Steve asks looking around at everyone, even you where you were standing behind your brother dustin.
“ This isn’t a stupid sports game!” Mike called out from where he was on the floor looking at steve where he was also looking at the map where the main section of the tunnels connected. Setting it on fire will give Eleven and Hopper the chance to get to the gate safely but also running the risk of getting four children and two teenagers killed.
“ I said does everybody understand that” Steve says sternly taking the towel from his shoulder and pointing it at Mike. You were conflicted.
On one hand going to the tunnels and setting it on fire gives El and Hopper the better chance of getting to the gate quickly and safely to close the gate and ending this hell once and for all. But again, if you all go and something goes wrong what are the risks of someone getting hurt? You wouldn’t let dustin get hurt and max, who has grown to be like a little sister, would do anything to do the right thing even if it meant getting hurt. You wouldn’t let any of these kids die. After last years events you thought this was all over, a bad memory that you wouldn’t have to think of again. Boy were you wrong.
You clench your fist and look at steve about to speak when you hear a loud roar and rumble of a car engine. Everyone's heads snap towards the front of the house when max starts running to the front window quickly. Thats immediately when you realize who it was.
“ Oh shit “ You breath out running behind her as everyone follows to the window and front door. Lucas and her jump on the couch seeing the blue camaro pull up on the driveway.
“ Its my brother, he can’t know I’m here he’ll kill me” Max looks at lucas who was sitting next to her. “ He’ll kill us “ She looks back at me quickly obviously nervous. I look at Steve who was next to me and see him thinking quickly before walking to the front door and shutting it quickly walking outside.
Everyone crowded around the window being sure to stay low so they wouldn’t be seen. You stood at the edge peering around the window frame standing above the kids as you see Steve stop at the porches edge waiting for Billy.
You and Billy had a confusing relationship. You always were interested in him and attracted but he never really had a good way of showing his feelings. He acted different around you, not being the total smart ass that everyone makes him out to be. You knew vaguely about his troubles at home but he was never open about it in the times you both hung out.
Letting you in would only get you hurt too. He doesn’t know what he would do with himself if he was the reason something bad happened to you.
As Billy climbed out of his car he smirked blowing out a puff of smoke before leaning against his car.
“ Am I dreaming or is that you Harrington? “ He smirks as steve rolls his eyes his hands on his hips.
“ Yeah it’s me don’t cream your pants.” Steve states obviously annoyed. He walks down the steps as Billy takes off his leather jacket throwing it in the car before walking up to Steve his chest puffed out his cigarette hanging from his lips.
“ What are you doing here Amigo? “ Billy asks his signature smirk plastered on his face still.
“ I could ask you the same thing...Amigo.” Steve replies calmly.
“ Looking for my step-sister. Little birdy told me she was here.”
“ Huh that’s weird I don’t know her ” He says shaking his head.
“ Small “ Billy pinches his fingers together. “ red head ” He points to his hair. “ Bit of a bitch.”
“ Doesn’t ring a bell sorry buddy “ Steve replies quickly. Billy nods twisting his neck.
“ Ya know I don’t know this “ He steps closer to Steve “ This whole situation Harrington, It’s giving my the hibigeebies.”
“ Oh yeah whys that? “ Steve asks confused but tries not to show it.
“ My thirteen year old sister goes missing all day and then I find her with you “ He motions his hands towards Steve. “ In a strangers house, and you lie to me about it “ He says furrowing his eyebrows at Steve obviously starting to get angry.
Steve breaths out a huff looking away from Billy, “ Man were you dropped to much as a child or what? “ He looks back at him watching him run his tongue across his teeth. “ I don’t know what you don’t understand about what I just said, she’s not here” Billy chuckles and takes his cigarette out of his mouth using that same hand to point behind Steve.
“ Then who is that? “ He asks matter of factly. Steve looks out the window quickly seeing all four kids lined up along the window before they all ducked down.
“ Shit! Did he see us?” Dustin asks quickly. You jump into action throwing yourself at the window just in time to see Billy kick Steve who was laid out on the dirt ground in front of him.
“ Everyone stay here “ You say quickly running to the front door and running outside slamming the door shut. Billy looks up at you as he walks up to the porch confused as to why you were there too.
“ Princess, you haven’t become desperate to be with Steve Harrington have you?” He asks now getting upset that you were with another guy let alone is archenemy. Yet his whole demeanor changed when he saw you, he wasn't as tense and he looked happy to see you. You huff out a breath the cool air nipping your bare arms.
“ Billy go home your sister is okay I’m watching after her. “ You state calmly looking around Billy quickly when you hear Steve groan from the ground. You rush over to him thinking Billy would listen to you as you help Steve stand.
“ Are you okay?” steve grunts and nods looking up after he hears a door slam shut. You look quickly to see that Billy had ran into the house successfully pissing you off. “ God damn it “
When you and Steve ran inside you found Billy hunched over slightly by Lucas who was backed up against the wall.
“ You are so dead saintclair, you’re dead “ Your eyes widened at Billy's harsh words to the poor thirteen year old. Steve stomped over quickly grabbing Billy spinning him around to face him away from Lucas.
“ No, you are” With that he punches Billy as hard as he could in the face successfully throwing him sideways making you gasp. Lucas runs to you quickly wrapping his arms around your waist making you look down at him and hold him close protecting him and calming him down before you felt Max and Dustin hug you from your sides and Mike behind you. You watched wide eyed as Billy laughed almost maniacally looking at steve his nose now bleeding.
“ Looks like you got some fire in you after all, huh? I’ve been wanting to meet this King Steve everybody has been telling me so much about. “ Billy gets close and up in Steve's face again making you tense up.
“ Billy please go home you can’t do this. “ You say looking at him with shocked eyes. He must have went through something bad at home to be in this anger state now. The fact that him and Steve don’t get along doesn’t help the situation either.
“ (y/n) it’s okay let me handle this “ Steve says not giving Billy the chance to respond to you.
“ Don’t tell her what to do.” Billy grumbles eyebrows narrowed. Steve poked Billy’s chest pushing him away from him a little bit giving themselves a little distance from each other.
“ Get out “ Steve all but growled staring at Billy. It was silent for a good 10 seconds before Billy swung missing as Steve dodged causing Steve to punch Billy hard again in the face.
“ Yes! Steve!” Dustin yells encouraging Steve. You shake your head quickly pushing everyone back away from the two fighting teenagers.
“ Dustin don’t encourage them!” You yell looking around to try and figure out something to stop them with without hurting either of them.
They didn’t last long in the kitchen and somehow ended up in the living room with Billy on top of Steve beating the crap out of him. You looked around quickly trying to find something to help knowing that if you went in to pull him off you would most likely get hurt. Before you could stop it Max grabbed the shot and stomped behind billy stabbing him in the neck with it definitely drawing his attention away from the boy underneath him.
He stood up looking behind him slowly seeing max right behind him and you walking towards them quickly. You push Max behind you pushing her towards the boys who grabbed her pulling her to them. You put one hand on the exposed side of Billy's neck to help steady him while you use your free hand to pull the shot out of his neck dropping it to the floor. He looked at you confused and you could tell he was starting to get delusional. He stepped forward looking at Max.
“ Shit what did you do “ He mumbled looking at Max before stumbling backwards and falling to the ground. You quickly caught him going to the ground with him to help break his fall having him practically lying in your lap as his eyes closed and soft chuckles escaped his lips. You look up as Max grabs Steve's trusty nail bat before she swings it over her shoulder looking at her brother on the floor.
“ From here on out you’ll leave me and my friends alone, do you understand?” She asks sternly. You look up at her proud to see she was finally sticking up to her brother. She didn’t know that he was trying to protect her from the dark world, but being a pissed older brother and emotionally abusing her wasn’t the way to go at it with her.
“ Screw you “ He mumbled eyes practically closed the drugs causing him to come in and out of consciousness already. Max quickly derailed his comment by slamming the bat right into the hardwood floor just missing his privates. That quickly got him to open his eyes and look up lifting his head to look at the bat right in front of his crotch. You looked at her in shock by her action as did the boys who stared at her in awh from behind her.
“ Say you understand! Say it! “ Billy’s head lolled back into your lap where you gently held his head tangling a hand in his curly blonde hair. He leaned into your touch his eyes officially closed.
“ I understand “ he practically whispered falling asleep in your lap. You look at his pocket seeing his keys dangling out of them before leaning forwards and wiggling them out of his jeans. You look up at Max who dropped the bat on the floor.
“ Max “ she looks down at me catching the keys quickly that I tossed her way. “ You’ll need those” She smiled looking back at the boys who were too shocked by everything that just happened to move.
After helping them get Steve in the back seat of the Blue Camaro you somehow were able to get Billy into the passenger seat of your Black 70 Ford Mustang before closing the door and looking back at the kids who were all waiting by Billy’s car.
“ Where are you going?” Dustin asked concerned his knee jumping. You wrapped your arms around him hugging him.
“ Go to the tunnels and burn these son of a bitches. You all are amazing kids I know you can do it, Steve will wake up and help you guys to I know it. “ You explained making them all look at you confused.
“ Where are you going (y/n)?” Mike asked again confused. You sighed trying to avoid the question failed.
“ I need to get Billy out of here and away from you guys. I’ll be okay I promise.” Max looked at you with a small smile.
“ Do you love him?” Dustins question surprised you. As much as you wanted to say goodbye to the blonde hot head you had a little piece of yourself that was with him. Him was with you too.
“ It’s complicated Dusty.” You sigh petting his head. “ You guys be safe alright if any of you get hurt-” You were cut off when Max practically ran into you hugging you tightly.
“ Thank you, (y/n). I know you can change Billy’s ways.” You hug her tightly looking off to the side at the knocked out boy in your passenger seat, he was bloody and needed to sleep for a while but you couldn’t help but feel your heart flutter just looking at him.
“ I hope you’re right max” With that you all went separate ways. The kids drove off with Steve in the back seat planning on distracting the demogorgons and saving El and Hopper. While you got Billy away from the hell that you all have been dealing with for the past couple days. You couldn’t stop checking on Billy. What he did was awful and he needed to explain himself. He goes through hell at home but is that an excuse anymore after what he just did?
Damn it Billy Hargrove why did you have to make me love you?
