Say You Won't Let Go (Harringrove)

Chapter 8: Telling the rest of the crew

(Steve: 11 weeks)

Steve was eleven weeks pregnant when he started to have a little bump, it wasn't really noticeable, he looked like he was more bloated than pregnant, which was good since He and Billy had yet to tell the rest of the kids.   Dustin was the only one who knew that Steve's pregnant and about he and Billy expecting twins. Steve did call Dustin and told him to act surprised when they tell Will, Eleven, Mike, Lucas, and Max, on top of that, they had to tell Joyce and Hopper since Joyce always paid Steve when he babysat Will and how Joyce is always nice towards him and Billy; which the two of them really appreciate it. Joyce was always nice towards them even though Johnathan took Nancy away from Steve, which the older male really didn't care about anymore since he's with Billy now and having twins with him, he didn't care about Johnathan nor Nancy anymore, they didn't bother him, he didn't let them either. Billy treated him good, way better than Nancy did, Billy didn't like Nancy, he would say it to her face, he didn't care, he hated her, but He loved Mike, He could sit and talk to Mike for hours on end, Mike didn't do anything to him to make him hate him nor anything to make him mad, he just didn't like his sister, which Mike knew not to mention Nancy around Billy. All the kids liked Billy, He understood Eleven and her past, he's very patient with her since she talks slow and quiet, Which Mike liked and Eleven really appreciate it and Billy surprised her once with a box of her favorite thing in the world besides Mike: Egos. She acted as if he gave her a million dollars that day.  Plus Lucas and Billy have been getting along well too since Max and Lucas are now dating, Lucas really did like how Billy changed after he and Max started to date, and Max was so happy, all the kids did notice a change in Billy since him and Steve got together, well, he was dating their babysitter, why wouldn't they be nice to him and him being nice to them, and Will even told Billy how to play Dungeons and Dragons, which Will was really happy that Billy thought the game was pretty cool, Billy had no issues with Will either, He just didn't like Johnathan since he put Steve threw hell of him taking Nancy away from him, but just like Mike, WIll never brought his brother up to Billy. Dustin even tells Billy everything when something isn't going the way he wanted it to in his life, and Billy always gave him the best advice, if you mean by best advice is that you hit someone with a crowbar; Steve really didn't think it was funny, but Dustin thought it was hilarious.  All the kids just loved Billy and that made Steve really happy and they were all accepting of their relationship as well, Max really was happy to see her brother happy and see her babysitter so happy too. Max even told Steve, 'If you break my brother's heart, I'll break your face." he hasn't broken that promise since he and Billy were happy together and loved each other very much and Steve already got beaten up twice already so, he didn't need to get beat up by his future sister in law. 

  Steve and Billy were watching TV when they heard a knock at the door. "I'll get it," Billy said, kissing Steve on the side of the head, his lover nodded, not saying a word; When Steve woke up today, he felt terrible,  he was throwing up more than he had through the three months of his pregnancy, he barely ate anything since it kept coming back up, and the only things he could keep down were water and other liquids that Billy basically force him to drink since he didn't want Steve to get dehydrated over how much he threw up that morning; Steve was almost out of the woods before today, all he wanted to do was just rest and not do anything but he knew he had to tell the rest of the kids since He told Dustin and Max being Billy's sister. His thoughts were chased off when Billy walked in with the kids. 

"Hey, Steve, how are you feeling?" Eleven asked, looking at the older male. "Not too good," Steve replied, knowing Billy will have to do all the talking since he was feeling so nauseous. "Are you still sick with that stomach bug?" Will asked, "My mom told me you were sick."

"Well, it's not a stomach bug, Will," Steve replied, finally getting enough strength to talk. "Billy and I are expecting." Max's eyes grew big. "What?"  Everyone looked surprised too.  "Steve, are you saying, you guys are having a baby?" Mike asked.
