Wonderwall // Steve Harrington (COMPLETED)

38

"What psychedelics of Eddie's have you gotten into ? You can not go through with this" Delilah scolded, she had pulled Max away from the group, the girl could not go through with it. "None. I just know..it can't be you" Max said honestly as Delilah shook her head. "Oh yes it can. I'm older, I'm saying it's me" she said adamantly. "You have your boyfriend, your best-friend and-and..your brother here to look after-" she began as the older girl cut her off.

"You have Lucas, all of the boys and you have El. If this is some sort of method to get rid of the Billy guilt. It's not working. I won't allow it" she kept scolding as Max shook her head. "And Eddie's clearly in love with you. You're more needed in this group then me. If you're there, waiting to be killed or actually being killed. This group will fall apart without you" she said softly as Delilah scoffed. "Dustin's dumb big sister. Nice try" she began as Max kept shaking her head. "I know damn well, if you go to Vecna's house, Steve will want to go too, then Robin will want to go too and eventually Nancy will. That leaves us and Eddie to fight Vecna. It's a loosing battle. Plus, if you do go through with it and fail, Dustin will literally fall apart" she said honestly as Delilah sighed. "You're one badass little kid. Sorry, sorry, one badass little bitch" she said, still not entirely sure that Max should be the one to go through with it.

"Del, get your ass over here. You need to help me with these directions" Eddie hollered so both girls walked over. "You remember the WarZone ?" he asked as she rolled her eyes. "Briefly" she lied, the Parking Lot they'd never be noticed at. "I've been there once" Eddie lied. "It's huge. They got everything you need for, uh, well, killing things really" Eddie explained as Robin smirked. "Do you think fake Rambo has everything we need ? Is that a grenade ? I mean, how is any of this legal ?" Robin asked, confused as to how Delilah knew anything about the place.

"All you guys need to know is, it is. It's outside of Hawkins, as long as we stay clear of main roads, we ought to be able to avoid cops, angry hicks, anyone after Eddie's ass" she explained, she could feel Steve's eyes burning through her but she stayed focus on the ad. "If we're trying to avoid angry hicks, maybe we shouldn't go to some store called the War Zone" Erica said, it was a question on all of their minds but nobody asked. "Normally I'd agree but we need the weapons so I think it's worth the risk" Nancy said as they half of the group agreed. "But is it worth the time ? It'll take all day to bike there and back" Dustin complained as Eddie and Delilah looked at each-other with a smile, they had the same idea.

"Who said anything about bikes ?" the banished boy asked as Steve looked at him confused. "Either of you got some car we don't know about ?" he asked, he wanted to be angry that the pair were communicating telepathically and both knew about a gun shop outside of town but couldn't. "It's not exactly a car, babe" she said while tapping his shoulder. "And it's not exactly mine, but uh..it'll do. Hey, Red, uh, you got a ski mask or a bandana, something like that ?" Eddie asked as Max smiled, she knew exactly what he needed.

They appeared from behind Max's house, Eddie wearing Max's Michael Myers mask and began their mission. They followed Eddie all around the trailer park until he stopped at one in particular. He opened the window, climbed in and took off his mask. Steve was next, he pulled Delilah in and the pair helped the rest in. "Woah, woah. Eddie, you can't drive that" Delilah whisper-yelled once she saw him about to hot-wire the vehicle so she and Steve ran up to him.

"Where'd you learn how to do this ?" Steve asked since the boy was a pro. "Well, when other dads were teaching their kids how to fish or play ball, my old man was teaching me how to hot-wire. Now, I swore to myself I wouldn't wind up like he did but now I'm wanted for murder and soon grand-theft auto so I'm really living up to that Munson name" he said Delilah rolled her eyes. "You still can't drive this thing" she scolded as he smiled. "Harrington's got her, don't ya big boy" he said as the vehicle started so Steve jumped into the driving seat and they began their journey.

They were out of the trailer park, she was sitting on the couch next to Eddie. "What's the big plan once your name is clear ?" she asked, genuinely curious. "I told you 86 was my year, it still will be. I'll get my diploma. Get the fuck out of this town" he said honestly as she titled her head. "And leave Corroded Coffin ?" she asked as his whole face lit up. "You remember ?" he said, trying to contain his joy as she nodded. "I was a groupie for you guys for a while" she joked as he nodded back, she was, she went to every show for three months. "I think I want one more gig before I go out" she said softly as he kept smiling. "One more gig and then an honorary game of D&D, both of our dying wishes fulfilled. I can do that" he said as she noticed Steve and Nancy talking. "Go get him" he said sadly as she walked up to them.

Steve drove, Nancy was in the passenger seat while she sat on the floor between them. "I've always had this dream that I'd have this really-really big family. I'm talking like uh, full brood of Harrington's. Like five, six kids" he explained as Nancy furrowed her eyebrows. "Yeah, six little nuggets. Three girls, three boys" he began as Delilah smirked. "Four boys, three girls. You forgot Will" she joked as the boy smiled back at her. "Every summer, I figured all of us Harrington's, we would pack up into something like this" he began as she kept smiling. "A Fleetwood Southend" she whispered, she thought nobody heard her but he did. "We'd just see the country. You know the Rockies, Grand Canyon, maybe Yellowstone" he listed as she closed her eyes. "Hawaii if our little shit box would take us that far and I had my licence. You couldn't do all that driving" she began before covering her mouth. They weren't together, she couldn't just say all of that.

"End up in some beachside town in California. Spend a week parked in the sand, learn how to surf or something" he explained as Nancy looked to both of them and smiled. "That sounds nice. Except for the six kid part, that sounds like a total nightmare" she said as Delilah laughed. "As if he's not been a mother for years" she joked as they all laughed with her. They had it all figured out, they just needed to get rid of the monster in their way.
