Steve’s little jab made a wicked smile blossom on her face. “Oh, I know how to shut up, it’s just no fun.” That was the truth. Her mother had taught her to be extremely polite but seemingly skipped over the lesson on actual kindness. That resulted in the girl’s generally terrible attitude whenever a favorable opinion of her wasn’t absolutely required. The vast majority of Carol’s cruel, spiteful, and irritating tendencies were completely by choice.

‘I still don’t get why Tommy dumped you.’  Steve’s words delivered a solid knock to her confidence when he mentioned her nasty breakup. The effect was only visible on her face for a split second, her smile faltering before her guard was quickly back up. A more lasting effect was sparkle of joy in her eye, gained by picking on Steve, burned out. In it’s place was a cold and angry gaze, perhaps even vengeful, despite the rest of her expression still looking quite pleasant.

“Funny, it seems like we managed to rub off on you too,” Carol pointed out with a small smile. “Is that why little miss perfect got sick of you?” Tucking her hair behind her ear, she sighed for dramatic emphasis, “Well, I guess what goes around, comes around… maybe you should have stuck with your real friends.”

   Steve knew that was he said about Tommy was a LOW BLOW and he wasn’t exactly proud about that. The change in Carol’s tone wasn’t hard to miss. And, obviously, he could count on her to deliver.

  Now, as much as he tried to move on, Nancy was still a rough subject. After some time passed, he could see why they didn’t work out the way he hoped they would, but he couldn’t help to think WHAT IF. 

   Carol’s perfect mask cracked just a little then and there -- in Steve’s case there wasn’t really a mask to begin with. Even Hopper said to him, a few days prior, that he’s a terrible liar and SO easy to read. (It was after he spilled coffee on some important papers and claimed it wasn’t him. Didn’t work out.)

  He huffed out a small laugh, but the smile didn’t reach his eyes. Jaw clenching a little, Steve finally turned his face towards the girl and looked at her properly. “At least my breakup wasn’t a complete SHITSHOW for the whole school. --

-- Also, real friends? Please, spare me. For you and the other asshole, I was FREE BOOZE and a BIG PARTY HOUSE.” Okay, that got a bit too personal, but at this point -- Steve just couldn’t shut his damn mouth either.

The corner of Carol’s mouth tugged up into a smirk at the tone of his reply. She got a small amount of satisfaction from being able to get under people’s skin so easily and their past friendship didn’t take away from that.

“Aww, what happened?” Carol cooed, feigning a sickly-sweet concerned tone that would quickly be negated by her next words. “Let me guess, you ran out of your FAVORITE hairspray and couldn’t stand to leave the house looking like a used mop?” She huffed a quiet little laugh at her own joke. Carol’s attention was now completely on Steve and not at all on the assignment they were supposed to be doing.

  At this point, Steve was surprised that the pen he was holding didn’t snap in half in his hand. Jesus, he almost forgot how GOOD she was at pissing people off. Sure, Tommy was a show-off, but it was Carol’s bad side that people from their school tried not to get on. 

“ It’s good to see that some things don’t change. You still don’t know how to just shut up. ” Steve was still way more grumpy than actually aggressive. Since the breakup with Nancy and hanging out with the kids, he learned how to stay above some things, just mind his own business and not get involved in petty arguments.

   So why did it seem impossible in this situation? “ I still don’t get why Tommy dumped you, you know? I mean, you two assholes were perfect for each other. ”

[ carol - damnmouth ]

“Not cool, actually.” Carol corrected him, annoyed by his sudden appearance. She rolled her eyes before taking a moment to look him over briefly. It had been a while since the last time they spoke. Sure they had seen each other on campus grounds or the grocery store but neither had put forth an effort to actually talk until now… and even that was more of an accident than an intentional choice.

“What are you doing here?” Carol asked ambiguously. She wanted to know if he was really in this class, she hadn’t seen him last week, and why on earth he chose to sit near her. Obviously he hadn’t recognized her before sitting down but she would have thought Steve would just pick a group and fit right in, easily making new friends. It didn’t seem to be a problem for him to do that back in high school.

GOD. steve was really hoping that this awkward as hell greeting would be the end of their conversation. it wasn’t really a shocker, though, that CAROL kept on talking.

he sighed heavily, eyes still on the table, he started playing with the zipper of his bag just to do anything. “ what do you think i’m doing here? ” it sounded very grumpy, but he didn’t really care. their relations aside, steve didn’t get much sleep the past night, so it only added to his sour mood. 

“ i’m taking this class too. just -- skipped the first one. not that it’s any of your business. ” he could FEEL her judging gaze but chose to ignore it as much as he could. after he took off this silly king steve persona, carol was one of many people mocking him behind his back. or straight into his face, occasionally.

but a very similar thing happened to HER, later on. and, even though he could empathize, he couldn’t make himself feel sorry for her.

[ carol. - @damnmouth ]

he is late. AGAIN. working part-time at the sheriff’s office and trying to be somehow decent in college isn’t the easiest of tasks but, hey, nobody is MAKING him do it. it’s his own choice on this exhausting quest to PROVE himself.

it’s the first time he’s attending this particular class too, he overslept last time. when he walks in, everyone is already sitting down, divided into small groups. if it was high school, KING STEVE would have just joined any of them, really. this steve doesn’t really feel like it.

he’s not really looking when he sits down, like two chairs away, from the only other person that’s on their own. “hey --”, he just says, looking up, and cuts it short. it’s CAROL. “oh, it’s you.” steve looks away. “cool, cool.”

‘ sorry, but -- KING STEVE is not really available at the moment. i don’t feel like PARTYING. i’d rather just fucking sit at home and watch a romance drama. ‘

‘ I’m sorry ? What the HELL am I sorry for ? ‘
