Summary
“On the list of things I never want to do again, at the very top,” Steve says, strolling next to Robin in the center of Hawkins proper, “is being trapped in a tunnel with Mr. Hargrove.”
“Yes, of course,” Robin says somewhat absently as she looks into the front display of the bookshop. “This is why you keep bringing it up, even three days after.”

Summary
“You said you still dream of what happened, don’t you?” Robin’s voice was soft as she knocked the toes of her sneakers together. “About Billy at the mall. When he died.”
Steve pressed his lips together and nodded. He had confided in her once after coming into work with deep set circles under his eyes. He hadn’t slept in days it felt like, his mind constantly replaying what happened each time he closed his eyes.
Robin pushed herself off the counter and turned toward the stack of videos, picking up the scanner. “I’m just saying Steve, you said you didn’t really understand Billy. And you don’t know why you still dream of what happened. Maybe the answer is inside that box.”

Thanks to Max, Steve becomes the keeper of Billy Hargrove's things after he dies in Starcourt and learns more than he ever thought he would about his old rival. It doesn't take long for Steve to realize that maybe he was wrong about Billy, which begs the question: how should he feel now?Series

Summary
“Ok. Maybe you could… come visit her? Next week is spring break, so the timing is pretty perfect. It, uh— it’d be nice to see you.”
Hm. Yeah, that… that’s actually not the worst idea he’s ever heard. He could probably handle a visit back to the hellhole that is Hawkins. It will be hard, sure, but it’s been quiet there, and it’s not like he’s moving back. He’s got a comfortable home here now and—
Wait.
“It’d be nice to see me?” Billy repeats before he can stop himself. “Nice for Max? Or are you saying that you miss me too, Harrington?”
//
Billy survives Starcourt, hitches a ride to California with the Byers, and ends up staying with them indefinitely. When it seems like Max may be having some trouble back in Hawkins, Billy is convinced (by Steve Harrington of all people) to visit her for spring break. He should be able to manage a week in Hawkins. It’s not like the Upside Down is a threat there anymore so… yeah, he’ll be fine.

Summary
‘What else can you do?’
Billy tries to pour all his exasperation into the smile he flashes, make it undeniably feral. Judging from the outstanding lack of flinching from Harrington, he’s something less than successful. ‘Wouldn’t you like to know?’
‘I would, I genuinely would,’ Harrington says, in the most punchable way conceivable. ‘How long has this been—is it since you came back?’
‘Get the fuck out of my way.’
Realization dawns on Harrington’s face. ‘You don’t know how to control it, do you?’
or; Billy has powers. Steve is trying to help, sort of. Things get messy.

Summary
Steve Harrington can talk to ghosts. Sometimes. More accurately, ghosts can talk to Steve Harrington, and this fact has already saved his life once. He's really hoping they feel up to helping him a second time around, because it seems like the Upside Down isn't done with Hawkins yet.
