    He would never admit it outloud (and hated admitting it internally), but he really missed Steve.

    Summary

    Between 1983 and 1986, Steve Harrington lands himself in the hospital 4 separate times. He doesn't want to keep getting into shenanigans, but he keeps tripping into it. Three of those times, he lies and evades questions and leaves a lot unsaid. One of those times, he can't hide it from his parents anymore.

    Summary

    "I need you to train me."

    He's pretty sure his brain just malfunctioned. 

    "Me? I- I don't know how any of your..." he gestures at her wildly, "how your magic juju works."

    "It's not magic."

    "Same difference. I don't know shit about it."

    She huffs, frustrated, bouncing on her feet with anger, a teenager again. An annoyed teenager, at that. God, no wonder she and Dustin are friends. 

    "It's not that. It's... Lucas said... Lucas said you helped him train. For his basketball trials last year."

    ********

    Or:

    Eleven asks Steve for help training to beat the obstacle course. Enter: Coach Harrington. Turns out they have way more in common than they expected.

    Summary

    Steve made his choice, hiding behind his too-big Letterman jacket and later that overpriced Members Only while his friends went out of their way to make Jonathan’s life hell; or what he thought, in the ninth grade, was hell.

    Hell actually came two years later, when they dragged Will’s body out of the quarry.  When Lonnie came home.  When his mother sat him down like he was three years old again and said, smiling tightly, I’m going to have a baby.

    Benjamin, the magnificent life-fixing-grief-resolving-replacement-baby, was born nine months later.

    Summary

    The Squawk had become their cover, their communication hub, their war room. Robin did the actual broadcasts mostly playing music and reading pre-written community updates approved by the military presence in town, but the real purpose was the coded messages. Steve had helped her set up the whole system, spending hours figuring out how to get all the sound effects she wanted, taping things to walls and attempting to MacGyver random things around the station. That was just who Steve was, but looking around the room now, Robin wondered more and more if anyone else actually saw that.
