    Summary

    “It’s Jonathan Byers,” Eddie continues. “I don’t get it! You, Wheeler—What’s the appeal with this guy? What’s the allure? No offence, Byers.”

    “None taken,” Jonathan says, unfazed.

    “I mean, it’s like being attracted to a piece of paper,” Eddie says.

    Jonathan frowns. “Some taken.”

    Eddie can't wrap his head around Steve dating Jonathan. Jeff is an involuntary witness to, apparently, every single discussion about it.

    Summary

    “What do you mean what happened?”

    “I just…” Jonathan’s eyes flicked up past Steve at the sound of the backdoor creaking open. “Mom.”

    Steve turned to see Mrs. Byers’ in the doorway with a glass of water and a bottle of something. Probably the painkillers she’d promised. She gave him a matching look of concern and confusion, although she was quicker to conceal it.

    He started to feel hot and embarrassed with the reaction he was getting. It hadn’t been meant to slow anything down, let alone draw everyone’s eyes to his bare chest. He leaned down to grab his soaking wet shirt off the back steps, although it was really just an excuse to look down and away from everyone’s gazes.

    Mrs. Byers’ put out a hand as if to tap him on the shoulder and then drew it back like she was worried about hurting him.

    “Steve, honey, you can borrow one of Jonathan’s shirts."

    Summary

    Fate has a funny way of flipping everything on its head. It has a way of calling back to moments that felt so… nothing at the time, so utterly insignificant, yet brought a whole entire person into being.

    Steve gets a mandatory blood test following exposure to the demobats. It changes everything and nothing at all.

    Summary
