16 and in love
in which two friends have to come to terms with the fact that they'll never be normal
or
in which romantic feelings blossom between two boys who are terrified of confessing to each other
the only characters i own are nathan burns, car...

"you guys ready to go monster hunting?" kasey asked excitedly as she climbed into the backseat of nathan's car. "not today we aren't, today we prepare for battle." dustin explained, his knees pressed to his chest as he sat in the trunk with eleven and mike. "why couldn't steve pick some of us up?" mike complained as nathan began driving towards the wheeler's house. "steve was getting us shit from the army supply store, be a little more grateful for him." dustin replied angrily, as if defending steve's honor.
"why are you guys friends with him? isn't he like 25?" kasey asked curiously, looking back at dustin. "no, he's 20, and he used to get put on babysitter duty on our monster hunts." he explained, rolling his eyes.
"steve's kind of cool." nathan said simply as he parked in the wheeler's driveway. "okay, once steve gets here we split cars and go back out to that field from last time, and we make better weapons for dustin and mike." he explained, watching for the car. "dustin, lucas, erica will go with steve and robin, the rest of us will take my car. understand?" he asked as steve pulled up. "bye losers." dustin complained as he climbed out of the trunk. mike and eleven took lucas and erica's spots in the backseat, and then everyone was off.
"who knows how to shoot a gun?" robin asked, looking at everyone. will slowly raised his hand. "you know how to shoot a gun?" lucas asked, his eyebrows furrowing in confusion. "yeah, when vecna kidnapped me the first time i was gonna shoot him with my dad's shotgun but he, you know, has powers and went behind me." will explained with a shrug, before taking the shotgun from robin's hand. "do you need me to teach you?" he asked, earning a nod.
nathan couldn't help but stare as will showed robin and steve how to shoot. he couldn't help it, will was so attractive. he shook his head, a smile on his face, when suddenly, he heard a clock. chime. chime. chime. chime. "your time is running out." he heard will say to him, turning to face him. "he's gonna take you too. and i'm gonna be so happy when he does." will said with a smile growing on his face. "i mean, do you really think i like you? nathan, you're a freak. i just feel bad for you. this is all out of pity." he laughed, shaking his head. "fuck you, henry!" nathan shouted, tears spilling down his cheeks.
"nate! nate!" will's voice shouted. nathan turned his head and saw himself hovering above the ground, but he didn't hear queen. all he heard was will's voice. "i can't reach him!" will sobbed, trying to grab nathan's ankles.
"you really do love him, don't you?" vecna asked slowly, a confused look on his face. "more than anything. please, let me tell him i love him. then, after that, you can kill me, but give me a few more hours." nathan requested, turning to the grotesque man. "you're lucky i see myself in you. go tell him." he said through gritted teeth.
nathan ran faster than he had ever ran, thankful the - probably also autistic - man had pity on him. he fell to the ground into will's arms, panting heavily. "wh- but there wasn't music?" will asked, a confused look on his face. "i just sang, he hadn't started choking me yet." nathan lied, a smile forming on his face. "okay, you're listening to queen the whole time we're here, go with dustin to make shields." mike ordered, placing the headphones onto nathan's head.
