It was a classic Steve Harrington party that everyone would be at. Fall was coming up with the leaves falling faster to the ground every day. The ground was covered in the colors red, orange, and light brown. I knew everyone would be there, but I was waiting for her. I was waiting for the girl that had taken my heart, not even Nancy had taken me by chance like that. She was a dazzling girl, one that gripped my heart and ran with it without even knowing.
It had taken longer this year to get the normal support to come to my party. Ost were seniors like me, but parties weren't everybody's idea of spending their Friday night. My parents were never home, and they weren't coming home for another two weeks. A call had confirmed that this morning before I drove the two of us to school. I had been planning this party for the past few weeks with Robins's help, we were able to get most of it planned before I needed to go out and ask some people to bring the usual stuff.
"Beer, kegs, cigarettes, and weed." I listed off to a group of my friends. With a shake of their heads, we went out separate ways at lunch. Everybody had a job and knew what they had to get and bring to my party later in the night. When I looked around the thinning lunch room, there she was.
Y/n, a beautiful, breathtaking view of a person. Always had a happy smile on her face, and with not a single mean bone in her body. She was kindness wrapped up in a person. She shined bright in the dull Hawkins town. I was pushed towards her in the halls by Robin later in the day. "Go get her or she might not come all at Dingus!" Robin squealed as she pushed me away from her and towards Y/n.
I'm fucking Steve Harrington. I shouldn't be this damn scared to jsut invite a girl to my party. I had done it a hundred times... Well, that makes me sound super bad, but my point is that this shouldn't be as hard as it is for me right now. 'Get it together Steve' I said to myself. Of course. Buckley was rubbing off on me. I stumbled as I was pushed and accidentally stumbled into Y/n. Her books didn't fall rather she held them close to her chest as if she was protecting herself.
"Shit I'm sorry Y/n!" I said quickly. I brushed my jeans down getting rid of any dust that had gathered from near landing on my ass. "Steve? What's up" Y/n asked her voice was so sweet even though I had just bumped into her. "I was just..." My hand coming to rest on the back of my neck my nerves getting the best of me, and yet out of the corner of my eye. I see Robin urging me on, forcing me even from far away to continue.
"I just wanted to let you know that I was hosting a party, and was thinking you could stop by if you wanted that is." I said quietly, almost as if I was talking to myself in the mirror. The words come out in more of a ramble than a question or even a statement. 'Fuckin' hell get your shit together Steve' I thought to myself. Y/n's head moved her head to the right ever so slightly. She was so damn cute looking, looking up at me. Wide eyes. "Are you telling me or inviting me personally?" She asked. She was so fucking witty, and quick with her thinking. It was like a breath of fresh air. Every other girl in this damn school besides Nancy, and Robin never I don't even think used their brains. I was more confident with my words this next time around. If I said that I was just letting her know Y/n probably wouldn't come, but if I said that I was inviting her personally maybe just maybe she would come. I lick my lips and look over at Robin in the corner of my ear, she is smiling that giggly smile. "It's a personal invite, Y/n." I said. The bell rang and the hallway was getting clogged like every bell.
"I've got to be going now to 4th period, but I'll see later right." Y/n said, she reached up on the tips of her toes. Kissing me gently on the cheek. I short-circuited for a moment. She's so damn innocent like Sandy from 'Grease'. I wasn't taken out of my trance until Robin was pulling me away from the overfilled hallway and outside. "Damn Steve what's got you in a tangle of lovey-dovey emotions?" Robin asked. "She kissed me on the cheek, Rob. Like that innocent kiss feeling you see in the movies." I rambled on. Robin was looking at me like I had three heads. "The lovey-dovey movie shit?" Robin questioned me.
