Meeting Steve Harrington (X Reader)

019

"Jesus" Eddie shouts as Dustin pushes the makeshift door open "Delivery Service!" he shouts as we all walk inside. 

We all sit around him as he sits in the boat, eating the snacks Dustin brought for him. "So uh we got some good news and some bad news" Dustin winces as we have to tell Eddie what's been happening. "How do you prefer it?"

"bad news first, always." he says while stuffing some honey comb cereal in his mouth. "Alright bad news, we tapped into the Hawkins PD dispatch with our cerebro and they're definitely looking for you" Dustin lets out a sigh at the end of his sentence. 

"And the good news? y/n wants me back?" he chuckles to himself "keep wishing" Steve groans while leaning against the wall. 

"You name hasn't gone public yet" I say as he turns his head towards him as I stand just under Steves arm. "But if we found out about you, its a matter of time before others do" Robin finishes my sentence for me. 

"Hunt the freak, right?" my heart breaks for him. "You're not a freak Eddie" I frown at him. "So... before that happens we need to find Vecna, kill him and prove your innocence!" Dustin says with enthusiasm. 

"listen Eddie, I know what Dustin is saying sounds crazy, delusional but we have all gone through this before, them more than me I just got captured by Russian spys and had to watch my twin be killed..." the room stays silent

"But, they all know what theyre doing, collectively I really feel we got this" I reassure him. 

"Yea uh" Steve finally starts talking "We usually rely on this girl who has super powers but uh, those went bye bye so" Robin then jumps in "so we are in the brainstorming phase" she smiles at him. 

"Alright, well I trust you guys, some more than others" He turns and looks at me. "Come sit down, lets all get comfy here in the shed and boat" he opens his arms "shouldn't we get going?" Steve asks. "No we've got some time to kill" Dustin bursts Steves bubble as we all sit down together.

"Why did you come to Hawkins?" Robin asks forcing me to look over at her. "I kept failing in my other school and got told to go somewhere else if I wanted to graduate and this was the closest place" he sits back in the boat. 

"Whens the next d&d game" Dustin asks "I thought you said Friday?" Steve answers "Wow he knows Henderson's schedule, how sweet" Eddie claps his hands together. "Steve probably knows Dustin the best out of everyone" Max laughs.

"I know y/n the best though, sister best friends sort of thing" Max looks over at me. "Okay, quiz her y/n" Robin laughs "what?" I chuckle a little "ask her a question that she should know" she shrugs.

"Ultimate Sister quiz" I say as Max sits opposite me. "Let me ask first" she gets comfortable. "Whats my favourite song" she sits back crossing her arms. "oh come on that's so easy, running up the hill Kate Bush" Max lets out a loud sigh as I get the question right. 

"Okay, y/n go y/n go" Dustin says as I sit thinking of a question. "Okay, how did I get the biggest scar on my body" I raise my eyebrows at her, only Max would know this as we were together when it happened. "You were stupid and tripped over your own feet and fell into a glass bottle" she bursts out laughing.

"Okay okay, bonus question, where is that scar" before Max can even answer... "Top of your left thigh" Eddie answers, causing everyones head to dart to him, including Steve. "Uh.. well I was going to say right leg but guess I got that wrong" Max lets out an awkward laugh.

"Yea, well some of us have had a close inspection" Eddies eyes look up towards me, causing my stomach to drop slightly. "Dude what the fuck" Steve shouts and stands up "Im just say-"

Sirens start blaring down the road, ending our conversation "shit get under the tarp!" Dustin shouts, throwing it over Eddie as we run to the window to see what's happened, but all the cars drive straight past. "what the hell" Max whispers. "Alright, lets go" Dustin demands.

"Come back Soon" Eddie jokes as we all get into Steves car and follow the sirens. "Holy... is that Nancy?" Dustin says as we pull up, noticing Nancy talking to some cops. 

"So you're saying that this thing, that killed Fred and Chrissy, its from the upside down?" Nancy asks as we all sit at a bench, not far from mine and max's trailer.

"Our working theory is that he attacks with a spell or a curse" Dustin starts to explain. "All we know is that this is something different" Max starts speaking. 

"This doesn't make sense, Fred and Chrissy don't make sense" I look up to Nancy confused, "Maybe they were just in the wrong place?" Dustin tries to make sense of the situation we are in. "They were both at the game and the trailer park?" Max says.

"We're at the trailer park now..." Steve mumbles. "Uh, should we maybe not be here?" he looks around. "Yea lets just remember me and Max live here, please, thanks" I turn and frown at him.

"There is something about this place..." Robin looks around at the park. "Serial killers stalk their prey before they strike, right?" Robin continues to talk "So maybe Chrissy and Fred saw this vena?" everyone shakes their heads. 

"what if one of you two are next?" Dustin looks to me and Max "wow, thanks for that Dustin" I raise my voice slightly. "They will be fine. but I know if I saw some wizard thing, id tell someone.." Steve looks up at Max.

"They may not have wanted to tell the cops, it wouldn't make sense, but I saw Chrissy leave ms Kellys office", "you'd go to your shrink" Robin looks at Max as she nods. 

We all start walking back to Steves car when Nancy and Robin split from us "Where are you going?" I stop and turn to them "I have one more thing I need to check out, Robin will be with me its fine", "Alright, well be careful" Steve shouts as we get back into his car and drive off. 

"I cant believe Eddie said that" Max starts of the conversation as we drive away. "Thanks for mentioning that again max" Steve looks at her in the mirror "Sorry" she shrugs and laughs. "What even happened with you and Eddie, seriously" Dustin asks "its too long to explain and im tired of this subject" I turn and look at Steve as he drives.

"Hes such a douche" he shakes his head. "Plus... ive been to there more than he has, paying attention to other things instead of a scar.." Steve turns and smiles at me "Oh that is very true, many more times and a lot more attention" I place my hand on his leg with a grin across my face "Ew guys, seriously?! kids here!!" Dustin shouts as Max covers her ears. "What? its natural!!" Steve shouts at the two of them. 

I turn and look at Max "what? haven't you and Lucas-", "NO!" she shouts at me "okay okay, just asking you never know" I throw my hands up and turn back around laughing with Steve. "I had to listen to Billy and all those girls for years, I don't need to know about you two going at it" she shivers, forcing myself and Steve to burst out laughing again.
