Summary
A strange string of parties held out in the deep woods of Hawkins, Indiana, plays host to Steve Harrington and his doubts about his future. Every weekend the party is relocated, and somehow Steve is always privy to the knowledge of where it’s going to be. What he doesn’t know is who’s hosting them, or why. There’s something weird about them that he can’t quite place, but he still finds himself drawn to them week after week, if only to use them as an escape from his stressful post-Upside Down reality. The weirdest part of all, however, is the fact that Billy Hargrove seems to be invited to them as well, and-
There’s something in the woods.
OR: Some weird low-key occult parties start popping up that Steve can’t in good conscience ignore and takes it upon himself to investigate. Billy gets caught up in the consequences of his meddling, and isn’t it funny? For all the strange things the Upside Down has thrown his way, it’s werewolves that Steve has trouble accepting exist.

Summary
A quite moment at a party and an invitation of safety starts them on a new path.
-
Steve pushes away from the siding, tuning and pausing, Billy can feel the weight of the stare even as shadows obscure his face. “You know I have stairs at my house but no one will push you down them. You know if you ever needed a place to go."
"Shut up." Billy frowns, lip curling up in a sneer even as his heart pounds heavily in his chest, aches throbbing as his body goes tight again.
"Alright." Steve nods, accepting, fingers brushing against Billy’s fiddling with his pack of cigarettes as he digs out another one, needing the distraction. "Offer stands."

Summary
Robin and Carol want to go to a gay club, dragging Steve and Billy along with them and the two finally get that push they need to get together.
-
As soon as Steve has his drink in hand Billy is pushing him back toward the table, glaring at anyone who looks like they might be interested in chatting either of them up. “Don’t wander off again, lots of predators in the bar tonight, pretty boy like you will get eaten up."
"Just not the guy I want to eat me." Steve snorts in front of him and Billy would have missed it if not for the lull in the music. “What?” Steve hisses, drink sloshing out a little as Billy abruptly twists him so they are facing.
"What was that?" He asks, heart rate kicking up, as far as he knows the only people Steve knows here are the ones he came with.
"Nothing." Lie.

Summary
Steve needs a soul. Luckily Billy has a few to spare, and he's feeling generous.
--
"I need a soul." Steve watches as Billy raises his eyebrows. Impressed, maybe. Surprised. "I want an exchange."
The laugh that Billy gives is a pleasant sound. Steve supposes that's par for the course - Billy is designed to tempt, after all, to be attractive enough to lead others down a dark, dangerous path. "Sweetheart, you know that's not how it works," he says, like he's patiently explaining. "No refunds, no exchanges. It's all in the fine print."

Summary
Steve ripped his shoulder out of his grip, putting distance between them, and Billy’s eyes flickered down to the knife still in Steve’s hand, grinning like they were just playing a game. He grinned like he wasn’t a murderer, like Steve wasn’t his captive, like that girl deserved any of this.
He licked over his bottom lip like they were still in a standoff outside of the Byers’ house, like this knife wasn’t used to kill some innocent eighteen year old girl, like Steve didn’t want to fucking stab him over and over, and over again until Billy got it.
Steve wasn’t the Bonnie to his Claude. He was never going to be.
“Behave, pretty boy,” Billy said with a raise eyebrow, almost challenging him. “Better put that down before you get yourself hurt.”

Summary
Steve's face looks golden in the light of the setting sun, and when he drops his eyes from where he was holding Billy’s gaze, his eyelashes paint shadows on the light flush of red in his cheeks.
He looks so fucking pretty that Billy’s breathless with it. Doesn’t know what to do, just holds still and can’t tear his eyes from his face as Steve leans in close, too close, to put lotion onto the front of his shoulders, rubbing it in carefully, so carefully, as if he’s trying not to hurt Billy. Touching Billy’s chest, staring at it where it rises with every shallow breath under Steve’s hands.
Then he looks up, straight into Billy’s eyes, and Billy’s sure his brain stops working for a second.

Summary
Steve is absolutely happy in California, with the weird palm trees and the salty ocean breeze and the grainy sand always between his toes. He really is. He doesn’t miss small town Indiana at all.
(Alternatively: Billy pretends to be a drug dealer so that he can see more of his hot neighbor Steve. Steve apparently thinks his customer service is spectacular. Not that it's all too hard, with just one client, but whatever.)

Summary
"He’d tried not to worry all week, really - but telling Steve not to labor over situations until his luxurious hair turned gray and his fingernails were chewed to the bone was like telling a baby it couldn’t cry - it was impossible.
Old habits die hard, and some never die at all, and whether that be referring to the drinking or the drugs or the worrying, Steve didn’t know."
OR
Steve's just slightly insecure about wherever him and Billy stand, and he can't do a single thing without wanting - needing - something illegal and powdery white flowing through his veins, and now lives are at stake with a mysterious monster lurking around every corner. Maybe this could be one of his best summers yet, without his abusive parents berating him every chance they got, but not everything in Hawkins is as it seems.

Summary
Billy started shifting blankets, finding Steve’s face. “Talk to me.” One of Steve’s eyes opened, big and round and full of something Billy couldn’t place. “You okay?”
“I went to the doctor today. I was up all night throwing up.” Billy kissed his forehead.
“What’s the verdict? You alright?” Steve shifted, sitting up, holding a soft pillow to his chest. “Flu? Strep? Hand-foot-and-mouth disease?” Steve didn’t laugh. Didn’t even smile.
Billy was fucking worried.
“I, um, I’m, I’m pregnant.”
Billy’s heart fucking stopped.-

"What's your name?"
"My name?" Billy hisses. "Fuck that, who the hell are you?"
The boy with a face that's way too pretty shrugs. Pops a maraschino cherry into his mouth. There's whipped cream smudged above his lip that makes Billy want to do filthy things.
"My name is Seven." He nudges his empty glass forward. "Can I have another strawberry milkshake?"
