Steve Harrington Imagines

Dare pt. 4

Y/n POV

I woke up to the sound of birds chirping, the sun was peeking through the thin covering over the tent and I moved my arms to stretch. Yet I was trapped, I felt around my waist. 2 large arms were wrapped around me and I gently turned over, making sure not to wake the sleeping boy in my tent.

I looked at his features, so soft and simple as he snored lightly. He really was cute, and very sweet, and also really good in bed. I smiled softly at him, leaning down and placing a light kiss on his lips. I watched his eyes flutter open. He woke up, looked at me for about 3 seconds and flew out of bed.

He quickly put his clothes on and basically ran out of the tent. I didn't even have time to react he was dressed and out so fast. I furrowed my brows and sat confused for a little while, before I myself got dressed and walked out.

It was a beautiful day, the sun was already shining and the river sounds were so peaceful, I couldn't tell if the river helped me sleep so well, or if it was Steve. I saw him, pretty far away at the edge of the river all by himself.

"Hey." Alexis came up next to me, she shoulder bumped me and nodded towards Steve.

"What's up with him?" I looked at her and shrugged.

"How should I know?" She smiled.

"Well he slept in your tent didn't he?" I rolled my eyes and smiled as she shook me.

"I'll go check on him." She nodded.

"Good choice." I walked along the rocks, careful not to fall and break my ankle as I made my way to Steve. I sat next to him and brought my legs to my chest.

"Hey you." I said to him, he just kept looking forward. I nudged him a little and he looked over at me.

"Hi." I studied his face for a minute.

"What's wrong?" He sighed.

"Nothing." I nudged him again.

"Oh come on, you love camping and you're pouting in the corner. What's wrong?" He looked at me, for a little while before he looked back at the river.

"I like you." He said.

"Me?" I questioned back. He looked at me and nodded.

"Yah. You. I've liked you since the second grade when I pulled your hair that one time and you decided to hold an eternal grudge against me." I slightly frowned and looked down at my feet.

"All my friends told me if I pulled your hair, you would know I liked you cause that's what all stupid second grade boys do. But you didn't, you hated me after. And sure, it's always been fun to tease you and get the reaction out of you that drives me crazy but I don't want to do that forever. We got dared to sleep together and honestly it wasn't my intention. I was going to lie and say we did it because I want something more with you. I don't want to be sex buddies. I don't want to be a midnight hook up. I want to be partners, best friends, lovers, that gross PDA couple that everyone hates because with you, nothing else matter..." I was too stunned to think of something to say. I had no idea he ever felt this way about me.

"...and if you'd rather hit me on the head and tell me gross then so be it, but I can't pretend I don't like you. Because I do. And it feels so wrong just having sex with you."

"Steve you've had sex with a lot of people under the same circumstances. A one time thing." He looked at me.

"But they weren't you." We held eye contact for a few moments.

"Ew." I said.

"This is why I wasn't going to tell you." He heavily sighed and went to leave but I grabbed his arm.

"I'm kidding I'm kidding. I'm sorry, I'm not good with feelings, or expressing emotions." He sighed again.

"Steve, I do like you. I've liked you since you pulled my hair in the second grade, and I've always liked you teasing me. It's our thing, and I always look for you in crowded rooms or at parties because you make me comfortable. I know you'd never hurt me, or put me in danger and honestly it means more to me than you could imagine. I'm sorry I'm a bitch, and a grudge holder. But it was in good fun I promise." He studied me.

"I need a little time, but being lovers and partners and that gross PDA couple sounds like a dream. Doing anything with you does. And I'm sorry I never mentioned it sooner, I just never thought you would like me in the same way, but I'm sure happy you do. Because you, are a dream come true." He smiled at me, and opened his arms.

We hugged for a little while, and I smiled into his chest and watched the river flow next to us.

"So, what is this?" Alexis asked from behind us. I pulled out of the hug and stood next to him, he looked down and at me while I looked up at him.

"Yeah Y/n, what is this?" I laughed and looked at Alexis.

"This, is us being friends." He let out a loud laugh as well as Alexis and I stood confused for a moment.

"Okay what's so funny?" Alexis was doubled over in laughter and Steve was too focused on trying to calm his breathing that he couldn't answer me.

"Hello? What's so funny!" Alexis caught her breath and looked at me.

"This is us, being friends. HAHAHA" she let out another laugh and I glared at her.

"Sorry Y/n, but 1.) that was the cheesiest thing on the fucking planet and 2.) you two are not just friends." She explained to me. I let out a huff and looked at Steve who was nodding next to me.

"I second the cheesy ness of the statement, it was pretty gross." I threw my arms in the air and went to walk away.

"Okay, fuck off you guys." Steve grabbed my waist before I could walk off and he spun me towards him.

"Oh you're so dramatic!" He said before connecting our lips. I pulled away and looked at him.

"Yeah but you love it!" He laughed while I heard Alexis squeal. I stood up on my tip toes and kissed him again.

Thank god for a dare.
