Chapter 21:
March 21, 1986

Steve's POV:

I was driving Robin to school. She was doing her makeup in the car as I'm ranting to her about Y/n. "I find it so crazy that Y/n and I have been dating for almost a year and we haven't had sex. Every relationship I've been in I have made love to, other then her. She's just never horny. She is never in the mood."

Robin hums in response.

"Does that make sense to you? Robin are you listening?"

"Uh, yes," she stammers.

"What did I say?"

"Something about not have sex with Dustin."

"What? No, I'm talking about Y/n. Why the hell would I say that about Dustin?"

"Cut me some slack please! Your love life is so complicated and it is 7:00 in the morning. We have to go to this stupid pep rally, and I woke up looking like a corpse," Robin drags her face down with her hands.

"You're worried about a basketball pep rally? You expect me to believe that?"

"Yeah? So?"

"So we both know what this is about. Okay, I'm not buying that bullshit. This is about Vickie."

"Absolutely not."

"Yes, it is. You know what else I think?"

"No I-"

"I think you gotta stop pretending to be someone else when you're around her. Okay, you just gotta be yourself."

"You're literally quoting me to me. You do realize that?"

"Well, maybe you need to listen to yourself. You ever think about that, Smartypants?" I say. "I listened. Look at me. Boom. Relationship."

"It's not the same thing, okay?" Robin says.

"Well-"

"You ask out a girl and she says no. Big deal. Nothing happens. Maybe your ego's a little bruised, but I ask out the wrong girl, and bam, I'm a town pariah."

"I'd buy that, except Vickie is definitely not the wrong girl."

"We just don't know that, do we?"

"She returned Fast Times paused at 53 minutes, 5 seconds. Do you know who pauses Fast Times as 53 minutes, and 5 seconds? People who like boobies, Robin!"

"Ew! Gross."

"Boobies!"

"Don't say boobies!" Robin says in embarrassment.

"Its not a big deal, okay? I like boobies. You like boobies. Vickie likes boobies. Definitely." Robin shakes her head. "It's boobies!"

"You are so embarrassing," Robin groans. I drop Robin off at Hawkins high and drive over to Y/n's house. I open her door to see her making something in the kitchen.

"This is rare," I joke.

"Hey, I just got the random urge to make something." She says.

I walk up and give her a peck on the lips, "can I help?"

"Yeah, just wash your hands and work on the crust while I work on mashing these blackberries."

I walk over a wash my hands before going to the dough she left rising in a bowl. "Have you ever even made a pie?"

"No, but I wanted to try." She takes some sugar and mixes it with the berries. "Put some flour on your hands before you knead the dough in a circle."

"Oh," I look at my hands and Y/n sprinkles some flour on my hands. "You are going to the game, right? 'Cause I am not going alone."

"You'll have Robin," she replies.

"Yeah, but she's in the band so I won't exactly be with her. Besides she's beside her crush Vickie and she's going to try and talk to her some more."

"Oh, Vickie is a cutie," she smiles and shakes her head. "I actually think Vickie's gay."

"Really?"

"Yeah, could be wrong though."

Y/n spends about an hour trying to help me get dough off my hands after she helps me lay the crust in the pan. I enjoyed her having to touch my hands. I still get butterflies and static when she touches me.

I look down at her and she looks up at me. We both get lost in each other's eyes. My eyes flicker down at her lips at up at her eyes. We both connect our lips. I use my hand and put it gently on her jawline to deepen the kiss. As our kiss grows deeper and deeper-

Ding.

Someone rings the doorbell and she quickly releases from the kiss. I try to kiss her again when Y/n flicks flour in my face before leaving to get the door.

"Hey," I smile at her while wiping the flour off my face. She just laughs and opens the door.

"Shouldn't you guys be at school?" I hear Y/n ask someone. They help themselves in and it happens to be Dustin and Mike.

Y/n's POV:

"We need your help," Dustin tells me with a serious face.

"What's up?" I furrow my eyebrows.

"Can you sub for Lucas for D&D? Everyone told us no and you're our last resort." Dustin says. "Steve told us no by the way."

I look behind me to see Steve looking around the kitchen acting like he didn't hear what Dustin had just told me. "Of course I'll play D&D with you guys. When?"

"Tonight. During the game," Mike says.

"What? No, no, no," Steve comes rushing over here.

"Why?" Mike and Dustin both ask.

"Yeah, why?" I look up at him and cross my arms.

"Dude, you're gonna miss Lucas' game and Robins performance. Along with leaving me alone up there."

"I'm sorry, but these two need me. You have to tell me what happens and if Lucas wins." I turn back to the boys, "yeah, I'll play. Just tell me what time and I'll be there."

"7pm," Dustin says. "We'll meet you at the gates."

"You got it. Now, go back to school before your moms kill me," I push them out of my house and shut the door. "Now, where we're we?" I ask Steve.
