Wonderwall // Steve Harrington (COMPLETED)

"You play that game. How do we defeat Venkman ?" she asked her brother as she drove him and Steve to pick up Robin. "Vecna" Dustin corrected as Steve shrugged. "It sounded right" he said honestly as Dustin face-palmed for the millionth time. "Venkman is who Lucas and Mike fought about at Halloween. Vecna is a monster killing teenagers. There is no similarity" he lectured as Robin got into the car and they began the drive to Max's. "Where is Lucas ?" Delilah asked as the boy groaned. "Probably hungover with all the other assholes. This isn't our main concern and you just hit  a mailbox" he observed as she nodded as if she was supposed to do it and kept her eyes on the road.

They collected Max and then began their second drive to Lovers Lake. "Steve should be driving" he eventually said as Max rolled her eyes. "Give her a break Dustin" she shouted as Steve nodded. "You've been really up her ass recently" he observed as Dustin turned to Robin, the only voice of reason in the car who also nodded. "It's true" she said honestly as the boy shook his head. "Oh, I'm sorry that I don't want my sister to die because she can't drive a car or throw herself into dangerous situation where she could be murdered or be taken away by St- just end up dead" he ranted on as she smiled. "You care about me" she taunted as he rolled his eyes and looked out the window at nothing because they were going to the middle of nowhere.

They arrived at the house, each grabbing a bag of the food they were supposed to deliver to Eddie and headed into his hiding place. They didn't bother knocking, they thought he'd know. "Delivery service" he announced as they all held up their bags. "Weapons Eddie, Jesus" Delilah scolded as the boy put it down and ran over to see what they'd brought up. He was sitting in the boat he'd been hiding in with a box of cereal and a drink, he was like a rogue animal, he was obviously starving. "Alright so we have some bad news and some good news. Which one do you want first ?" she asked him as he looked at her like the answer was obvious. "Bad news first always, come on, do you not remember ?" he asked as she turned to Dustin who said he'd deliver it on the way there.

"We tapped into the Hawkins P.D dispatch with our Cerebro, they're definitely looking for you" he explained as they all watched to see how he'd react. "Also they're like pretty convinced you killed Chrissy" Dustin added as if it was a minor detail. "Like 100% kind of convinced" Max told him as he looked to Delilah. "What's the good news ?" he asked, just wanting her to the be the light of the situation. "Your name hasn't gone public yet" she said through a smile, she turned to Robin to reveal the rest. "But if we found out about you then it's only a matter of time before others do too and if that gets out then everyone and their shallow-minded mother  is going to be gunning for you" she explained as Delilah got up and walked over to Steve who'd been too quiet with everything to do with Eddie. "Hunt the freak right ?" Eddie asked as Robin nodded. "Exactly" she said honestly as he stuffed more cereal into his mouth. "Shit"

"So before that happens we need to find Vecna, kill him and prove your innocence" he explained like it was nothing but they all knew it was near impossible. "That's all Dustin, that's all ?" Eddie asked, he sounded annoyed. "Yeah, no, that's pretty much it" he said in the same voice that made it all sound like nothing. "Listen Eddie, I know everything Dustin's saying sounds kind of delusional but we've actually been through this kind of thing before. Well, I mean, they have....a....a few times and Delilah and I have once. Ours was more human fleshed based there's was more smoke-related but bottom line is collectively, I really feel like we've got this" Robin explained as Steve wrapped an arm around Delilah and nodded. "We usually rely on this girl who has superpowers but those went bye-bye" he began as Delilah nodded back at him. "So, we're in a...a um, brainstorming phase" she commented as the boy she completely adored clicked his fingers. "Brainstorming phase"

"There's nothing to worry about" Dustin said through a smile as all of them nodded but Eddie looked to Delilah who sighed. "Okay, there is...for now until we exit the brainstorming phase so stay here, eat your cereal and-" she began until the hall heard sirens, they were near. "Tarp" Robin ordered so Eddie quickly got back under it. They all ran to the window to see it was just passing by but they all know, something else had happened. "Car" Delilah ordered as they all ran to follow the chaos.
