Summary
Eddie straightens at that and spins on his heel to face Steve, who had given up on sleep and was rubbing his eyes gently, blearily looking around the room. “Harrington, you didn’t tell me your long-distance kid got possessed. Nor have I been told what a Mind Flayer is. Is it like the thing from D&D?”
“My long-distance kid?”
“Baby-Byers. What’s a Mind Flayer, Steve?”

Summary
Steve was late to work.
It wasn’t the end of the world. He’d been late before plenty of times. It’s just… He was in a bit of a predicament.
He had a problem. A big problem. Beginning with E. Ending with E. With a double D and an I in the middle.

Summary
For some reason, Eddie’s face goes about ten times redder at that thought, and for a moment, Steve is terrified that his friend can suddenly mind-read. After a beat, and the sound of metal hitting wood as Eddie drops his fork, Steve puts two and two together and realises that no, Eddie is not a mind-reader, but that yes, he did say that he wanted to kiss Eddie senseless out loud.

“We’re getting allowance?” Will beams, making grabby hands at Steve as he pulls into a free space and stops the car.
“Don’t call it allowance,” Steve mutters, pulling out his wallet and pulling out two crisp fifty dollar bills. “Clothes are expensive, and you both deserve something nice. So—knock yourselves out.”

“What exactly is the problem?” Steve ventures, praying to a higher power that the kid would give him a straight answer.

Summary
If Eddie had to guess, he’d say that Will had gotten out of the shower and walked directly to his trailer. His hair was damp, he was wearing older, crinkled clothes and he only had a pair of socks on—“Oh, Will...”
The boy in question turns around slowly, that awful, vacant look still in his eyes. They stare at each other for a few minutes of uncomfortable silence before Will breaks it.
“Do you want me to leave?”

Summary
“He made it pretty clear that he didn’t want to see me,” he scoffs, gesturing at the red mark on his forehead. It looks vaguely like the sole of a shoe. “He finished in the shower and bolted out of his window. Then he threw his shoes at me, and by the time I focused again, he was climbing through the bushes like some—some feral forest child.”
“Why?”

Summary
Eddie had bullied him into reading something, claiming it would feel refreshing and relaxing. Steve—being the annoying shit that he was—had bought a kids book. However, surprisingly, he seemed pretty engrossed in the story of The BFG, so Eddie counted it as a win.
The only downside to it was that he wasn’t getting any attention from his boyfriend.

Summary
“Mike, you’re not doing a very good job at hiding,” she calls out, crossing her arms and smirking when Mike flushes red and scowls at her. Nancy glances over her shoulder with a look of suffering, before turning back to Robin with a smile.
“Robin.” She messes with a button on her cardigan. It’s a nice pastel blue today—Robin liked it. “Mike—well, both of us—need some advice. And I know you’re more knowledgeable about… the sort of stuff we need help with.”
Robin nods slowly. “Sure. What is it?”

And it will always be Mike.

Summary
“It was never your fault.”
A gentle breeze ruffles their hair, and the distant tweeting of birds fills the short silence.
“Are you sure?”
A hesitant hand lies on his knee, sending electricity shooting through his veins at the contact. “I’m certain.”

post-st4. apologies and dandelion seeds, floating in the breeze.
