    Summary

    Steve was a protector, first and foremost—he’d do whatever it took to protect the party, regardless of whether or not it was fair he was the one responsible for a bunch of kids when he was seventeen.

    What happens when all that results in one too many hits to the head, and more concussions than the brain can safely endure?

    Or, in which Steve protects, is tired, under appreciated, and far too caring to not carry responsibility and blame.

    Summary

    Shortly after that Christmas in 1983, Chief Hopper catches Steve Harrington wandering the woods with a bat in his hands, patrolling the area behind his house. In that moment, Hopper decides to try and help Steve cope with what they all went through in any way he can. In doing so, he ends up noticing a few things.

    It's amazing how one act of kindness can highlight the difference between family and blood.

     

    Or

     

    Hopper takes Steve under his wing shortly after season 1, Eddie might just get to graduate, and Henry Creel died before the show ever began. This is how things might change as a result.
