Summary
Tutoring Steve Harrington was supposed to be simple. It wasn’t supposed to involve late nights, soft confessions, or his protectiveness turning sharp when Billy Hargrove starts paying you the wrong kind of attention

Summary
Yet now, sitting in this beautiful, hollow house, with its too-soft carpet and cold expensive art, you’re realizing just how lonely that story must have been.
It’s strange, isn’t it? How someone so surrounded could still end up carrying this kind of quiet.
Even now, with Robin’s constant orbit. Even with all those kids that pop in and out of the center, loyal and rowdy and halfway adopted. There’s still a loneliness here. Something left behind.
You look at him again. Barefoot, sweatshirt gone soft with wear, hair falling into his eyes. He’s staring down at his hands like they’ve done things he’s still apologizing for.
It really is strange, how someone so clearly loved can still look so lonely.
⟡
After a 7.4 earthquake swallows half your hometown, you start volunteering at your old high school gym turned relief center. That's where Steve Harrington shows up—soft, kind, earnest, and nothing like the guy you thought you knew. You’re both carrying some heavy baggage (you're not calling yours trauma, he's not calling his heartbreak), but whatever's starting to bloom between you... you think it might just change everything.

Summary
He doesn’t scream.
You kind of hate him for it.
Because you know this type.
Boys who bleed quiet. The beautiful, tragic kind who carry pain like it’s a penance.
...
It’s the age-old fall from grace: high school royalty faceplants into reality, and the Burger King crown starts hanging heavy. (Sailor hat, in his case.) Heir to the Hawkins High hierarchy, ruler of keggers and hallways alike, Steve Harrington used to be untouchable. Now? He's shaking under your hands, bleeding from battles no trophy could ever commemorate. You've stitched together plenty of broken people before—but never one that left a scar in you, too.
