Steve wrapped his arm around Beth's waist and pulled her arm around his shoulders, supporting her as he headed for the backdoor, so she wouldn't be seen like this by the rest of the teenagers, although most of them probably wouldn't remember anyways.

Steve unlocked his car and opened the passenger seat door before helping her in, "You're not going to throw up, are you?"

"Honestly I hope so." Beth groaned, leaning against the window.

Steve ran around to the other side and got in the driver's seat, "I'd rather you didn't."

"I feel like shit." Beth said as Steve started the car and drove to her house. She glanced at Steve, "Shouldn't you be fixing things with Nancy?"

Steve looked over at her, "What do you mean?"

"I figured you fought when you stormed out of the bathroom earlier." Beth said slowly, "Is everything okay? What happened?"

"Don't worry about it." Steve shook his head, "It's nothing."

"You can tell me you know. I'm not going to spread rumors or anything." Beth said.

"I think we might have broke up or something." Steve said.

Beth's eyes widened, "What?"

"I don't know. She was drunk and mad." Steve shook his head.

"I'm sorry." Beth said and she honestly meant it.

"Yeah. Thanks." Steve said, looking over at her, meeting her eyes before looking away.

Beth was silent for the rest of the ride, keeping her head on the window, sneaking glances over at Steve every now and then, but he kept his eyes focused on the road until he pulled up outside of the Byers house.

"Your mom's home." Steve said, nodding to Joyce's car being outside in the driveway.

"Yeah." Beth muttered and turned to face him, "Don't tell her what happened tonight."
