Steve: There's demodogs at the Hargrove house. Don't ask me how I know and no one look at my phone. Ever.

I need billy moving to Indiana but instead of Hawkins it’s a neighboring town so he and Steve are on rival basketball teams and they HATE each other because their schools have this long storied beef and Billy and Steve have always been at the top of their games and when they get on the court it’s like they’re only playing against each other and Billy is SO smug about his game, his looks whereas Steve constantly flaunts his wealth and status in the community which pisses billy off because he’s got this chip on his shoulder about being poor and having a shitty dad and all outward appearances suggest the Harringtons are a happy little family

So anyway the only time they really run into each other is at games but there’s also the occasional house party they both end up at and it always devolves into battling keg stands and one upping each other on stupid dares and typical teenage boy idiocy, they’ve also been known to start throwing fists

The great harringrove feud is legendary round these parts.

What’s lesser known is that sometimes at parties or games, when the tension gets thick enough, billy and Steve sneak around to a bathroom or bedroom or empty parking lot to take out their hatred in a more euphoric way… still biting and snarling and clawing at each other but with a lot more dick stroking and sucking and fucking and it’s their little secret that DEFINITELY doesn’t mean anything and they’re DEFINITELY not into each other, it’s just a way to let off some quick steam, it’s not like they’re gonna fall in love with each other and mourn the end of the basketball season senior year when they won’t have an excuse to see each other ever again 😔

Harringrove thoughts but it’s just the thought of them tangled up under the sheets while they sleep, Billy pressing his nose and mouth to the crook of Steve’s neck because he’s cold, Steve’s arm around his shoulders to keep him close, Billy’s leg draped over Steve’s hips, grounding him in just the way he needs for a deep sleep, the two of them snoring and not moving a muscle until their alarm goes off in the morning

i just think that if billy and Steve had gotten to be friends, Steve would be dizzy about how aggressively billy is on his side. Billy’s not good at having friends instead of lackeys and so he’s too honest, too passionate about it. They didn’t even know each other and billy was telling Steve not to worry about finding someone else because he’s so pretty, yes there was a veneer of dickishness about it but that’s just billy.

Billy compliments Steve on his rich boy cologne, his sick keg stand stance, is the first one to notice when he gets highlights. He’s the first person to ever call Steve smart. Once he yells it at Dustin who is leaping into a ridiculous plan to fight the demodogs. Dustin is mad as hell and snipes “you always take his side!” And billy yells “yeah! Because you idiots don’t have his strategic mind, maybe if you listened to his plan we’d be alright!”

Steve says shit like “um, maybe Vecna was a …clockmaker?” And the kids snigger and billy is like “DO WE KNOW THAT HE WASN’T A CLOCKMAKER? You tiny bastards. You know nothing.”

Just insanely on Steve’s side. And Steve is so fucking loyal in return that they’re basically each other’s greatest defenders. No loyal knight/king dynamics here. They’re both insane. Attack dog 4 attack dog.

Eddie leaps out of the boat and jams a knife into Billy’s neck and Steve is already whaling on him with an oar. Mike is whining about how Billy sucks and Steve is like “you don’t get his sense of humour, it’s not his fault you’re not funny.”

Max is complaining about how fast Billy drives and Steve is like “uhh, skate then? Selfish.”

Robin asks him if Billy wears eyeliner and Steve is like “I don’t know, maybe he’s just that beautiful naturally.” But he does know. He’s just not gonna let anyone assume anything, even his kinda fun new coworker. And maybe it makes Robin’s eyebrows raise but she’s not wondering if Billy’s the kind of guy who wears makeup anymore, she’s wondering about Steve, and that’s fine.
