"You're a real character, Steve Harrington." You glared with a clenched jaw at your boyfriend after he and Jonathan made it back to solid land after racing each other up the radio tower. Steve had the audacity to look surprised as you stormed away to meet Nancy and Robin at Murray's truck.
"Wha—hang on a minute, y/n! What's wrong? What did I do?!" Steve ran ahead of you and stopped you in your tracks some-odd feet away from the rest of the gang, Jonathan wincing at the sight. "Y/N, come on. Did I do something?"
"Did you do something?" Your eyes widened at his audacity and you pulled away from his touch, scoffing that he could be this dense. "You and Jonathan just put on that show for Nancy! I knew you still had feelings for her!"
"I-No-I didn't—" Steve stammered, eyes wide and head on a swivel as if the audience had the answers for him. "Y/N, that's ridiculous. I went to fix the radio tower for Robin and Jonathan raced me. I said I was going up there first! It's his fault!" You two had drawn the attention of the whole crew at the truck now, and they were all feeling the tension.
"Lover's quarrel. Never gets old." Murray commented with a wide smile. "They'll get over it. I hope! You think Harrington deserves his peanut butter Boppers?"
"Definitely not." Robin shook her head as she stared at the screaming couple.
"Maybe I should step in..." Nancy sighed and looked at Jonathan with worried eyes, who himself felt guilty for starting the "competition." She walked up while you two were still arguing and lightly grabbed your shoulder. "Hey, Murray's got something for you. How about we grab it and head inside for now." You took a deep breath and relaxed your shoulders, letting Nance lead you away from your boyfriend. You didn't notice her turning back towards Steve and mouthing "idiot," but you wouldn't have stopped her if you did. Steve stood there in awe as he racked his brain for solutions.
"Not great optics, man." Jonathan walked past him into the station and Steve rolled his eyes.
"Shit."
