Imagine this song coming on the radio, Silver doesn’t even hesitate and takes Gold in his arms, dancing around the kitchen as Gold softly sings along

King of My Heart Chapter 10 - Trick or Treat, Freak

Author: @stiles-o-dylan24  Pairing: Steve x Summer Byers (eventually)  Word Count: 6.4k Warnings: canon violence and themes, bullying, language, mentions of partying, drinking, smoking, hint of not letting an implied non-con situation happen  SERIES SPOTIFY PLAYLIST

|| << PREV ||  MASTERLIST  || NEXT >> ||

My alarm clock blaring instantly pulls me out of my sleep and has me rolling over to hit the top of it. I check to make sure I actually turned it off and didn’t hit the snooze by accident, yawning as I roll onto my back and cover my face with my hands.

Groaning into my palms I figure I should probably get up and help with breakfast so I pull off the covers and go about getting dressed.

Once I pull one of my Rush t-shirts over my head, I put on a pair of knitted dark grey tights before I pull on a pair of black jean shorts. I grab a faded orange flannel for the holiday and my walkman and head out of my room. I set my shirt and walkman on the dining room table and head into the kitchen, seeing Jonathan already there and grabbing the mixing bowl for the eggs.

I open the fridge and hand him the eggs, grabbing the butter for me as I start on getting the bread ready for the toaster. Once that’s ready and waiting for Jonathan’s cue that the eggs are almost done I go about grabbing cups for the juice, hearing mom yell Will’s name a few times.

She comes into the kitchen a few seconds later saying “Guys–”

“Yeah?” Jonathan asks and looks over his shoulder at her while I set the plates on the kitchen table and look expectantly up at her in my silent question of what’s up.

“Where’s Will?” she looks between us and I make a noise, trying not to let the deja vu feeling of this time last year playing out exactly like this completely crush my entire being “Wha– what do you mean?”

“I mean where is Will?” she repeats and Jonathan moves the spatula around with this question “He’s not in his room?”

“No he isn’t” mom stresses and I follow behind her as she spins on her heels and heads towards the hallway. She knocks on the bathroom door, opening it without a second thought “Will?”

The way she said his name this time makes me realize that she definitely found him in the bathroom so I stop and press my back against the wall in the hallway, looking at the back of her head as she asks him slowly “What are you doing?”

“Peeing?” comes his reply and I snort, reaching up and covering my mouth with my hand to hide my silent laughter. Mom makes a noise, stepping back out into the hallway as she responds in an embarrassed tone “Okay.”

We hear the toilet flush just before she closes the door and she sighs, looking down to the ground and setting her forehead against the closed door.

I try to stifle my laugh behind my hand, I really do– however I completely fail. Mom immediately looks over at me, trying to fight off a smile of her own and I soften my face towards her “Hey, it’s ok– that damn anniversary effect, I tell ya right?”

Mom snorts and sets her arm around my shoulder, leading me back towards the kitchen, “Yeah, great– how about we finish up getting breakfast ready.”

We sit down to eat breakfast and Will talks about his costume he’s wearing for Halloween today and the plan for trick or treating tonight after school. He’s dressing up as one of the Ghostbusters along with Mike, Lucas and Dustin and the smile never leaves his face for how excited he is about getting to dress up with them today.

After breakfast mom helps Will get the proton pack of his costume onto his back while Jonathan grabs his camera. He gets the camera all set up with the film to take some photos of Will all dressed up while I sit on the arm of the chair in the living room and put on my black converse.

Once Will and mom walk out into the living room Jonathan guides him over towards the window and has him stand a certain way before he lifts his camera up and counts down “Three, two, one…”

He snaps the photo, saying “Great– hold up the proton blaster,” and Will does as instructed before Jonathan snaps another photo.

Mom smiles brightly as she stands next to me and looks at Will, taking in the bright and excited smile on his face that he directs towards the camera.

Jonathan lowers his camera down a little and nods towards the window with his next set of instructions “All right, now turn to the light.”

Will does as he’s wanting, smiling and striking a perfect Ghostbuster about to save the day pose for one last photo.

    ⋇・.・゜゜・.・゜゜・.・゜゜・.・゜゜・.・⋇

I get set up at one of the tables in the library for my study hall, joined today by Nancy and Steve who sit across from me at the same table.

“So Byers, did you decide on tonight?” Steve asks and I nod towards my notebook making a mhmm noise “We talked about it this morning.”

“You did?” he asks, the excited tone making me lower my head a little more to hide my smile as I nod, slowly looking up at him “Yeah we’re taking Will over to the Wheeler’s at six”

The smile on his face falters a little and he shifts back in his seat, clearing his throat “Then you’re– you’re going to be at the party around…” he trails off and I scrunch my nose up into a soft grimace at him, the smile dropping off his face completely “Why do you have to be such a pain in the ass?”

I make a mock offended face, jerking my head back a little “What? Me? A pain in the ass?”

“Yes” he mocks, making a face right back at me and I roll my eyes playfully, going back to my notebook “I told you Harrington, we would see after trick or treating but I’m not agreeing on a set time with you.”

Steve scoffs “Why not?” and I snap my eyes back up to connect with his “Because you actually are a pain in my ass and if I couldn’t stick to that time I would never hear the end of it.”

“That’s not true” Steve makes a noise and Nancy nods her head to the side, “It kind of is true”

“Really?” he turns towards her, the offense he’s taking with her not being on his side written all over his face and she shrugs “You are unbearable when your plans don’t go your way”

“Unbearable” Steve scoffs, raising his brows at her “Are you being serious right now?”

“Oh no, you’re right– you’re totally being reasonable right now as I don’t completely agree to your plan you’re trying to make for tonight” I sarcastically jab and he snaps his mouth closed, looking over at me.

I smile innocently and he sighs, the argument written all over his eyes, however, he stays silent.

Nancy snorts and goes back to her homework, writing quickly over the page as Steve continues to look at me. He narrows his eyes at me and I keep the innocent smile plastered on my face until he caves and holds up his hands at his sides. He shakes his head slowly back and forth, trying to sound indifferent, “Fine– come to the party or don’t come to the party, it makes no difference to me.”

“Sure it doesn’t” I mutter quietly and go back to writing my notes, missing the look Steve throws my way.

We’re quiet for a few minutes as we focus on our homework and note taking until Nancy’s pencil snaps loudly at the end and she sighs, lifting it up to look at the broken off graphite piece “Dammit”

I look at her and her pencil, noticing that the look on her face seems to say that there’s something more wrong than just the state of her pencil– so I ask, “Hey, are you okay?”

“No–” she answers, slamming her pencil down onto her notebook as she connects her eyes with mine “I can't keep doing this”

“The sharpener is just over there– do you want me to go for yo–” Steve starts to offer, however, Nancy just shakes her head and sets her elbows on the table, resting her hands against the sides of her face “No that’s not– I can’t keep doing this like you guys.”

“Doing what exactly?” Steve asks, looking between us and Nancy slaps her hands down onto the table again with her response “Pretending like everything's okay. It's like everyone forgot– it’s like nobody cares… except her parents”

“Nance” Steve tries while I furrow my brows and try to keep up with what she’s trying to say “Barb’s parents?”

Nancy nods with my guess and her face scrunches up in her agony “And now they're selling their house– and they're going to spend the rest of their lives looking for her”

“I know” Steve says and moves his arm behind her chair to rub her back comfortingly. I look between them and try to get a little more information “Wait what’s happening with Barb’s parents?”

Nancy makes a sad noise and covers her face with her hands again. Steve licks his lips quickly and scooches back in his chair, elaborating for me “We had dinner with them last night and they told us that they hired some guy named Murray Bauman or something like that...”

I shake my head like the name doesn’t ring any bells if that’s what he was hoping for and he shrugs, continuing “Yeah we didn’t know who he was either, but apparently he was this pretty well known investigative journalist for the Chicago Sun Times. He’s freelance now so he agreed to take their case”

“What case is that exactly?” I ask slowly and Nancy lowers her hands once more, sniffling before she answers “Them finding Barb– apparently they think he’s the man that’s going to find her.”

Since we know exactly what happened to Barb last year, and that we can’t talk about it– I’m figuring out very quickly why Nancy is so upset after hearing about their plan last night.

“Oh” I make a face, asking gently “Why do they think he’s the man that’s going to find her?”  

Nancy shrugs, crossing her arms in front of her and resting them on the table “They aren’t too happy with Hop or the rest of the cops not really doing anything and supposedly this Murray guy has leads.”

“What leads could he possibly have found?” I ask without really thinking and I grimace at her “Sorry– it’s just– well you know”

She shakes her head at me to forget it “No you’re right and that’s exactly why it doesn’t sit right with me because he’s probably lying to them and that’s not even the worst part” she scoffs, “He’s costing them a lot of money too, they’re selling their house to pay for it but they’re fine with it because for the first time since Barb disappeared they’re hopeful.”

“Jesus– he sounds exactly as I would imagine a reporter would be like” I grumble and Nancy groans, lifting her hands up once more “Yeah exactly and all this is going to do is destroy them even more.”

“I know– okay?” Steve says, drawing her attention to him and he softens his face towards her “I get it– but listen, there's nothing we can do about it.”

“Yeah, we could tell them the truth” Nancy says without missing a beat and I sit up a little with that, looking around without really thinking about it as Steve does the same.

I make a noise and lower my voice towards her “I wish we could, but you know we can’t do that, Nance.”

“I know” she matches my whisper of a voice, drawing her brows in sadly towards me “But hear me out Summer, we don't have to tell them everything. Okay I was think–”

“This isn't some game, Nance,” Steve interrupts her, moving closer in his chair towards her as he also lowers his voice “I’m sorry but it’s not, okay? If they found out that we told any…” he stops, looking around and sharing a look with me before he continues “They could put us in jail. Okay? Or worse, they could destroy our families. They could do anything they want. Okay? Just think about what you're saying.”

Nancy ponders his words for a few seconds, moving her eyes between the both of us before she sighs loudly and sits back in her chair “Yeah okay, you guys are right– I’m sorry.”

“You don’t have any reason to be sorry” I correct her without hesitation, waiting until she looks at me again before I continue “I get it, okay? The same way you want to make this better and take this pain away for them is exactly how I feel about wanting to fix everything about this for you.”

She smiles gratefully at me, nodding through the tears gathering in her eyes. Steve smiles softly as he looks between us, clearing his throat before he sets his hand on the back of her shoulder again “Hey, look all of this is hard, but let's... let's just go to Tina's stupid party... wear our stupid costumes that we've been working on for a stupid amount of time, and just pretend like we're stupid teenagers, okay? Can we just do that, just for tonight?”

Nancy looks over at him, waiting a few moments before hesitantly nodding towards him and he smiles a little more “There we go.”

I smile at her like it’s a good enough place to start and she rolls her eyes, smiling back and adding “On one condition– you definitely have to be there.”

Steve lifts his fist up, trying to hide just how excited her joining his side is making him and I roll my eyes “Fuck, you two are relentless.”

“So that’s a yes?” Steve asks and I throw him a look “Not even close to what I said besides I haven’t been working on a stupid costume for a stupid amount of time so based on your final requirements I can’t go be a stupid teenager tonight.”

“I can easily create a stupid costume for you” Nancy chimes in and I throw her a you’re not helping look which she laughs at.

Bob shows up about a half hour before we’re set to take Will trick or treating and he announces as soon as he walks through the door that he brought his video camera for us to use tonight.

“Here come here you guys” he says, waving us over. Jonathan and I share a look before we slowly head over towards him.

Bob turns the video camera on and holds it out for one of us to take, the smile never leaving his face as he waits to explain to us how to use all the buttons and gadgets on this thing. I set my hands on my hips and nod towards Jonathan, who I have deemed videographer for the night, as I smile cheerily at him “All yours.”

Jonathan sighs and looks at me quickly before he reaches out and grabs the video camera from him, grumbling “Thank you.”

Bob smiles and lifts his hands up indicating Jonathan should do the same with the video camera, which Jonathan does and places the eyepiece over his eye. Once he’s in the correct holding stance Bob lifts his hands up and moves his finger with his words “Okay so you hit ‘T’ to zoom in, and ‘W’ zooms back out. See? Easy-peasy”

“Yeah cool” Jonathan mutters and lowers the video camera from his eye while Bob points towards it again “Just make sure to turn off the power to save energy there.”

He continues to offer bits of advice on how to use this thing and since I won’t be touching it at all I move down the hall where mom is helping Will get his costume all set up again.

“Listen, stay close to your brother and sister, okay? And listen, listen, listen... if you get a bad feeling or anything, you tell them to take you straight home” mom instructs, Will nodding along– however that’s not cutting it for her and she throws him a look.

I hear Jonathan tell Bob “Okay I got it” before they walk closer towards us at the same time mom stresses Will for an actual answer to her previous request “You promise?” 

Will finally nods as his answer towards her and she says “Okay,” before breathing out a worried breath as she looks up at me. 

I nod and breathe in deeply, smiling over at Will to get this show on the road, asking him “Alrighty, you ready little man?”

“Yeah” he smiles relieved to be out of here and we open the front door, the three of us walking out and down the front porch steps while mom and Bob stay standing in the open doorway.

“Be safe” she calls after us and Bob puts on his best imitation of Dracula as he follows up with “I hope it doesn't suck!”

We look back with that, seeing mom force a smile at us to hide her worry and Bob chuckles. I wave at them and climb in the backseat while Will gets situated up front with his bag. Jonathan places the video camera in the middle seat and starts up the car, backing up along the driveway a minute later.

“I just don't get what she sees in him,” Jonathan says once we’re driving down the road and Will looks back at me, muttering “What?” as I shrug and he looks at Jonathan again.

Jonathan looks between us, making a noise before he groans out incredulously “Bob.”

I snort through a chuckle, lifting up my shoulder in a half shrug “All that matters is he makes her happy.”

Jonathan rolls his eyes, moving his hand around the steering wheel “Does she really seem all that happy?”

“At least he doesn't treat me different,” Will states, looking out his window as he continues, “I mean, I can't even go trick or treating by myself. It's lame.”

“What? You think we’re lame?” I scoff and he shakes his head, answering back quickly “No, but,” he pauses, his voice sounding so worn down “It's not like Nancy's coming to watch over Mike, you know?”

Jonathan sighs and shares a look with me in the rear view mirror, silently agreeing we need to do something to brighten his mood for the evening.

I frown and chew on the side of my lip, looking out my own window as I try to figure out how to fix this. My eyes catch on a bright folded up piece of paper on the floor and I smile to myself as an idea forms.

We pull up to the Wheelers and notice Dustin, Lucas and Mike are walking across the front lawn. When they see our car they wave and Dustin shouts “Will! Hey!”

Jonathan honks three quick times in hello before he stops the car on the right side of the cul-de-sac and shoves the gear into park. Will grabs his bag before he turns and starts to get out of the car, however, I stop him with a hand on his shoulder, “Hey listen”

“Yeah” Will asks quietly, looking over at me and I cross my arms, leaning forward to rest them on the back of the front seat “If we let you go on your own, you promise to stay in the neighborhood?”

Will’s face clears from the previous bummed out look and he smiles instantly, perking up as he sits up a little higher “Yeah! Yeah, yeah, totally”

“And be back at Mike's by nine” Jonathan adds, Will making a face as he counters “Nine thirty?”

“Nine” I confirm, keeping my face as serious as I possibly can in order to drive my point home and he nods, smiling and conceding instantly “Yeah.”

“Deal?” I ask, lifting my hand out towards him and he reaches out to place his hand in mine “Yeah, deal.”

“All right” I mutter quietly and Will opens his door as quickly as he can, climbing out and grabbing his proton pack.

“Hey Will” Jonathan calls after him, holding up Bob’s video camera “Don't let any of your spazzy friends use this, all right?”

“Okay” Will breathes out a laugh, reaching forward to grab the video camera from him.

“I hope it doesn’t suck” Jonathan imitates Dracula much like Bob did and I snort, dropping my forehead onto my arms. 

“Shut up” Jonathan grumbles as Will chuckles and closes the door, shouting bye towards us before he runs towards his friends.

“Will!” Lucas shouts and they animatedly talk and bounce around each other, swinging their pillow cases around that are just waiting to be filled with candy.

Jonathan sighs and taps his fingers on the steering wheel “Well that was probably the right call.”

“Yeah I thought so too” I agree quietly, watching the group before us and smiling at how happy they all are.

“So what are we going to do now then since we can’t go home?” Jonathan asks and I swing my eyes towards him, smiling widely as I slowly bring up the folded up bright orange flier in my hand.

Jonathan notices the flier and rolls his eyes playfully “Fine”

“Yes– let’s go” I laugh out and climb over the seat to sit up front as he starts the car and we head towards Tina’s.

As soon as we pull up to the house we notice the small groups of people scattered around everywhere really out front. We get out of the car and are immediately hit with the music blaring from somewhere in the house, along with the noisy chatter from everyone out here. 

Jonathan looks across the hood of the car at me like I can’t be serious about this being fun and I smile wide at him “Come on, it’ll be great.”

Jonathan rolls his eyes, trying not to smile as we head towards the front door. Once we walk inside the noise is even louder, between the music and all the drunken people yelling at each other I don’t know how anyone is actually achieving talking to each other.

“Hey nice costume” this girl’s voice says as she walks up behind us, Jonathan turning around and smiling at her “Huh?”

The girl who is dressed up like one of the guys from Kiss smiles even more and nods her head towards him, repeating “Nice costume.”

I raise my brows in my silent laugh towards him and he chuckles, turning back towards her “Oh, uh, yeah. I'm going as a guy who hates parties.”

I snort under my breath with that, setting my hand on his shoulder as I walk past him “I’ll leave you to it, guy who hates parties.”

“Stay in here” he calls after me and I lift my arm up to indicate I heard him. Walking away I hear them introduce themselves and I smile, hoping this Samantha person will hopefully be able to change his mind about being at the party being fun or not.

“Summer, you came!” I hear being yelled across the living room and my eyes quickly move around for the source of the voice, seeing Nancy with her arms in the air as she smiles and jumps with her words.

I laugh and make my way over towards her, noticing she keeps her hands in the air as she looks me over “This isn’t a costume, you were wearing this earlier.”

“That I was” I answer and she drops her arms back down to her sides “I was serious about coming up with a costume for you.”

I chuckle and throw her a look “Damn Wheeler, how much have you had to drink?”

“Not much” she states and I scoff out a laugh “How much exactly is not much?”

“I’ve just had like a few sips of pure fuel” she confesses and I widen my eyes “A few sips of what now? Pure fuel? Is that why you smell absolutely flammable right now?”

She laughs and wraps her arms around my shoulders “No, no, no– some guy– oh that one over there” she points over towards this guy dressed in leaf crown and a sheet wrapped around him like a toga, who hits his hands over and over on his chest like Tarzan “He told me the punch bowl was filled with pure fuel.”

“Well he sounds very knowledgeable” I mutter and she smiles up at me “Come on– I’ll get you a drink”

“Oh I’m probably okay–” I say to no avail since she is already pulling me towards the kitchen where this bowl of pure fuel is.

She grabs a cup and shoves it into the punch bowl, handing it out towards me and lifting it with her words “Here– drink.”

I tentatively grab the cup and bring it to my nose, sniffing the alcohol fumes and already feeling a little tipsy from those alone. I make a noise and pull the cup away from me, grimacing as I look at her and her nodding like I just need to drink it.

“Oh you definitely shouldn’t smell it” comes a voice from behind me and I look over my shoulder, seeing Steve take off his glasses.

He stops next to me and I take in how he and Nancy are dressed, smiling as I nod towards them “Risky Business– nice.”

“You got it!” Nancy shouts and I raise my brows with how loud she said that, pointing at me and Steve laughs, filling in for me “No one got it when we first got here and she got tired of explaining it to everyone.”

“Oh” I laugh, shrugging my shoulders “Well sure, it would have been too obvious if you were just in a white button down shirt and socks.”

Steve raises his brows at me, his humor filled eyes moving between mine and I clear my throat, turning back to look at Nancy “But this” I point between them “Definitely a you had to have actually seen it to know where it’s from– and it’s awesome.”

“Thank you” Nancy boasts, smiling proud as she looks down at her white tennis outfit.

She goes to grab another drink and Steve makes a noise before he reaches out towards her “Oh no, no, no–”

“Get off” Nancy snaps and pulls away from him, Steve quickly trying to stop her as he argues gently “No you’ve had enough, okay?”

“Screw you” Nancy succeeds in grabbing a full cup from the punch bowl and tries to walk out of the kitchen. I slightly widen my eyes at how quickly the whole situation changed and Steve makes a noise “Nance, put it down” he follows after her and tries to grab the cup from her, which she immediately fights him on “Steve, stop!”

With both of them yanking back and forth on the cup, the inevitable happens and the cup snaps back against Nancy. The bright red drink spills all over her chest and drips down the front of her white shirt. I grimace, drawing my brows in sadly at the sight especially with how excited she was about her outfit just a moment ago.

The music still blares around us, however, everyone in the same room as us stops in their dancing and talking to look over at what just happened.

“What the hell?” she states, looking up at him in her fury before she walks quickly through the group of people. Steve tries to stop her, calling out “Nance” to her retreating back as he walks just as quickly after her.

Everyone follows them with their eyes until slowly they all go back to their conversations or their dancing and I set my cup down on the counter. Deciding I don’t want to end the night in that state I walk through the crowd inside and head towards the door that leads onto the back patio.

I walk outside and instantly feel like I can breathe again, especially since the music and talking noise is significantly less out here and I can actually hear myself think again.

Walking around the pool I head for one of the pool loungers that is unoccupied and I sit down, leaning back to look up at the dark night sky.

“What are you doing out here? It’s freezing” comes a familiar and unfamiliar voice at the same time. I look over my shoulder and see the California transfer from yesterday smiling down at me.

“Well California, I’m sure this is freezing to you but I call this a perfect fall evening” I quip back and he smiles even wider, pulling his cigarettes out and placing one between his lips. I look away as he lights the end up and I feel the lounger jostle as he sits down with me. I slowly look at him out of the corner of my eye and watch as he takes a drag from his cigarette, smiling after he blows the smoke to his other side and away from me.

He offers the pack towards me and I shake my head “No thank you.”

He makes a noise and shoves the pack back into his jacket pocket “So I can’t help but notice you haven’t been enjoying yourself tonight” he remarks and I scoff under my breath “You would have noticed that how?”

“Well for one you reek of someone who is sober” he smiles again and I throw him a look, not saying anything as he continues “And second you are out here all alone as the party goes on inside.”

“You’re out here,” I remind him and he smirks, taking another drag “Yes,” he breathes out “However I was labeled King of the Keg earlier so I had a pretty eventful evening so far.”

“Well who could compete with that” I sarcastically jab and he chuckles deeply “I’m sitting out here with you so you don’t have much you’d have to compete for”

I snort and look back up at the sky, grumbling “Charming.”

“Thank you” he laughs once and I swing my eyes back towards him, asking “Is there something I could help you with?”

My question just makes him smile even wider and he chuckles, leaning closer towards me “Well now that you bring it up– there’s definitely something I think you could help with.”

Understanding what he probably means has me widening my eyes a little as I lean back away from him “I doubt I can help with much– I don’t even know your name”

“Really?” he asks, surprise written all over his face and I make a noise “Yes really– you left before telling us yesterday.”

“How rude of me” he chuckles once “Billy– Billy Hargrove” he finally offers and I nod my head towards him “Well Billy– Billy Hargrove, I don’t think you should be looking at me to help you with anything.”

“Oh but Summer,” he chuckles softly, connecting his eyes with mine “I just think you maybe are writing this off before you even give me a chance.”

“A chance with what exactly?” I ask and he smirks, tilting his head to the side as he slowly roams his eyes over me.

Well if that wasn’t enough of an answer, I don’t know what is. I make a noise and scoot even further back from him “Yeah, I’m not interested.”

That seems to surprise him even more and he jerks his head back a little “You’re not in–”

“Nope” I interject and he looks completely flabbergasted so I lay it all out there for him “I may not know you but I know your type.”

“Is that so?” Billy questions and I nod “Yeah and your type is one that I will be staying far far away from.”

“Just for tonight or–” he trails off and the way he says that all presumptuous like makes me want to punch him in the face. Steve was right, this guy might just be an even bigger douchebag than last year Steve.

I plaster on my customer service face and try again to knock his arrogance down, replying as brightly as I can manage “Now that you mention it– I won’t be interested tonight or ever really.”

Billy clears his throat, trying his hardest to keep the smug look on his face as he chimes back with “You know when you change your mind, I might just give you a second chance–”

“Doesn’t sound like she wanted even the first chance from where I’m standing” comes from my knight in shining armor standing behind me.

I stand up and turn towards him, smiling gratefully at Steve who keeps his eyes locked on Billy’s as he also stands up and faces Steve.

“You know, Harrington I do not remember asking you what your opinion on the matter was” Billy snaps and Steve fights off a smile as he replies “Well if it involves Summer– then you can guarantee I’ll be right here to give you an opinion.”

They don’t say anything else, just stare daggers at each other and I nervously look between them. Billy has definitely been drinking, I can’t say the same about Steve especially if he was monitoring how much Nancy was drinking– but either way he can not fight Billy in this state, especially over something as unimportant to him as me.

“So” Steve starts, nodding his head to the side “Why don’t you go on back inside and find someone else who you wouldn’t have to commit a crime to get them to sleep with you”

“That’s clever, Harrington” Billy laughs once with no humor behind it and Steve shrugs as his answer.

They look to be one move away from west side story-ing it up out here so I huff out an aggravated breath and move to stand in between them “All right well this has been fun, really in the mood with the holiday but let’s just go our separate ways now.”

Steve steps defensively closer towards me, his eyes never leaving Billy who looks between us with a quiet murderous rage building behind his eyes. That look has my defenses on high alert– I’ve seen it one too many times and I quickly go over our options and how likely it is I could get a knee shot into him to take him down before he starts swinging. 

Thankfully I don’t have to test my lackluster self defense moves as he seems to flick his anger off with a switch. He clicks his tongue against the back of his teeth, smiling wide like he doesn’t have a care in the world “Yeah– that’s actually a good idea.”

Billy keeps his eyes on us as he starts walking backwards and just when I think he’s going to step back in the pool he spins on his heels and walks back towards the house.

Only when he’s disappeared into the house does Steve face me completely and sets his hands on my upper arms “Are you okay– he didn’t try anything did he?”

“I’m okay, really–”I reassure him, shrugging a little "He was making me uncomfortable but you came out here just at the right time” I reply, moving my eyes between his and seeing them looking a little red “Are you okay?”

“Yeah I’m fine” he answers, shaking his head like it’s crazy for me to think he’s not as he drops his hands back down to his sides.

“Where’s Nance?” I ask and look back towards the house, Steve makes a noise and scratches behind his head “She had too much to drink and wasn’t feeling too hot– Jonathan is taking her home.”

“Jonathan?” I say, completely shocked and I furrow my brows with my confusion “But he’s my ride home.”

Steve nods, smiling softly at me “Don’t worry– I told him I would find you and take you home myself.”

I clear my face with that, jerking back ever so slightly “Oh, well I guess that works too– thank you.”

“Yeah” Steve says and shoves his hands in his pockets, looking down towards his feet and not saying anything else.

“Well I’m ready when you are” I say in the silence that follows and he huffs out a relieved breath, looking up at me “Oh thank god, let’s go.”

Steve holds his arm out for me to walk towards the house first and he sets his hand on my lower back as we make our way through the crowd inside.

Once we walk outside and get to his car he opens the passenger door for me, chuckling and nodding towards me “So, I didn’t hear earlier but what were you supposed to be?”

“A groupie” I reply without missing a beat and climb into the seat, hearing him snort and laugh loudly as he closes the door for me and walks around the front of the car to his driver’s side.

He climbs into his seat and closes the door, laughing once more as he points towards my Rush shirt “Well at least you have good taste to be a groupie for.”

I look over at him in my shock, which he notices and he clears his face “What?”

“Nothing– I’m just surprised you agree” I confess and he scoffs lightheartedly, stressing out slowly “Rush is awesome”

“Oh I’m aware they are– it’s just…” I trail off and he turns towards me a little more “Just...” he shakes his head softly “What?”

I don’t answer him right away, taking in a deep breath before I slowly breathe out my answer “You and me having things in common is still weird to find out, Harrington.” 

My words hang in the air for a few quiet moments while Steve moves his eyes between mine. He makes a noise and smiles brightly, for the first time since I’ve seen him tonight might I add, at the same time he looks out the front windshield “See I told you, Byers,”

“Told me what exactly?” I chuckle out at his reaction and he looks over at me quickly before starting the car up “I told you this friendship is going to work,” he winks at me and shoves the gear into drive “Now let’s get you home.”

[theowritesfiction]

How’s it going @theowritesfiction ?

I know you posted it a while ago, but I wanted to give a review for chapter 18 in Azula’s kitchen nightmares. I hope it is okay to use an ask as the medium for the review.

I’m sorry that I hadn’t given a review before now, I’ve been listening to a fan audio book of the Worm web serial on Spotify. What can I say? The Queen of escalation has captured my imagination. Today though, I only had one class at campus, so I had more time to get caught up to date for Azula’s kitchen nightmare. And I’ll be reading the other chapters promptly.

Now onto the review!

I really enjoyed this chapter. Jealous Katara who wants Azula all to herself is my bread and butter.

I also loved Azula just being flattered that Katara was stalking her and Katara being flabbergasted that she was cool with it all. The talk about Azula becoming part of the Northern lights family between Azula and Katara was sweet. June was absolutely right, Azula and Katara are “adorable”.

I also enjoyed Katara internally panicking when she realized that she was paying too much attention to Azula and none to June during the conversation.

Of course June then just throws Azula under the bus, that Azula thinks her co workers (Katara, Yue, and Suki) are the most sexy people she has worked with. Katara grinning at Azula and teasing her about it made laugh and smile myself.

Azula and Katara complimenting each others outfits and unabashedly eyefucking eachother made me grin.

Azula disappointment and Katara’s jealous reactions too June saying “anyway, maybe you two want to finish your drinks and we can get out of here” made me smirk. Those two are goners for each other already! My smirk only widened when June clarified that all three of them should leave together for June apartment, only for both Azula and Katara to turn into blushing messes.

And I laughed at June’s “their’s only so much of you two fucking with your eyes that I can take”. Ain’t that the truth. June got a first face impression of Azutara’s mural obsession with each other. From stalking, to being okay at being stalked (so long as it was Katara), to staring dreamily into each other’s eyes while they should include June in conversation. Not gonna lie, this line made my Azutara heart flutter.

The morning after the Daisy chain” was a fun read as well. June being guilty shocked at seeing Azula “so into someone, it’s disgustingly cute” was sweet. Katara just has that effect on Azula. If neither the OG show, nor the Netflix recreation weren’t cowards, Katara would have definitely seduced Azula to the good guys. But I digress,

Katara immediately denying the (obvious) truth and saying that June was “exaggerating” caused me to grab in unison with June in exasperation.

I burst out laughing (again) when June (knowingly) replied “I woke up in the middle of the night and it took me a moment to realize that you two were going for another round” and since neither thought to wake June for it, I have to concur that Azula and Katara are “both seriously into each other”. Azula and Katara thrusting for another and secretly going for “another round” kind of lends credence to my belief that Azula and Katara mostly focused on each other (mutual obsession and all that) during their “encounter” with June. Though the two would have made sure that June had nothing to complain about. Azula and Katara are both gentlewomen after all.

Azula and Katara being bitter and “sounding stiff” when agreeing to heel things professional and just “being friends” is making me roll my eyes. Ladies the two of you are obviously ready falling for each other! So just cut out the middle man (Ozai), screw each other’s brains out (again), and get together.

Of course, we wouldn’t have your awesome fic @theowritesfiction , if it was that easy. And half the satisfaction of seeing Azutara finally start avoiding the idiot stick and getting together, is the journey there! (With all its ups and downs!)

These lines made me laugh out loud too

“It was… defined some next level fun, compared to I’m used to” -Azula (which is either a hilarious commentary on Katara’s skills in the bedroom, or the lacking showing from Azula’s “usual hookups”, or both!)

“Katara didn’t exactly regret the act itself because it had been the best sex she’d ever had” -Katara (both Azula and Katara giving glowing reports about the other gorgeous women’s (who they are totally not falling for[sarcasm]) bedroom abilities… just admit your feelings girls!)

“As good as sex with Azula had been (also June was there too, Katara supposed), Katara still intended to apologize to Yue and Suki” (This was funny. Azula and Katara really are obsessed with each other. To the exclusion of everyone else (sans Suki and Yue of course). And I love that for them. Let’s go Steam(y) Queens!)

I’ve got a feeling that it’s going to take a while for all the idiots (affectionate) to figure it and get together. Particularly for Azula and Katara. And I am here for it!!

I loved chapter 18, and can’t wait for the next update. Well done @theowritesfiction !!!

On to the next chapters!

Hey, no worries, I’m always happy for reviews, doesn’t matter when 😉 And sure, using ask is totally fine!

I have heard about this Worm web series before – I read a brief synopsis of it somewhere, but I’ll be honest, while some parts seemed like something I would really enjoy, I could tell that some aspects would annoy me too much. 🤣

This chapter was a little different because it was almost pure Azutara throughout, and I haven’t had any chapters with such heavy emphasis on them. There are always spicy moments between them, but this was a really big escalation, and I hoped that Azutara diehards would love it. Seems I wasn’t wrong about that. 😊

Yue and Suki will remain in the picture for a good while longer, even if we all know that Azula and Katara are the endgame. But hey, it means more jealous Katara, so hopefully that’s fine. 😊

You’re exactly right that Azula and Katara made sure that June had no grounds to complain about the threesome. 😉

Azula and Katara falling for each other is just the first step to them actually being together. We wouldn’t want to make things TOO easy for them, would we? Pining is part of the fun, too!

Lol Azula and Katara both giving each other glowing reports and high scores 😉 I didn’t intend that to be a diss on their previous partners. Especially in Azula’s case, it’s probably that for maybe the first time she was with someone who she has genuine feelings for, and that adds a lot.

Tiny spoiler, but I am currently working on a chapter that is a big next step in Azula’s relationship with Katara, but also Yue and Suki. 😉 Unfortunately, it’s going to be slightly delayed because of the live action remake distractions, but it’s still coming along nicely and you’ll see it soon!

Anyway, thank you so much for this review, and I’m glad you’re excited to read more! 😊

Name: Lyds

Where in the world are you? Somewhere in Europe

Do you have a favorite towel? I have two sets of the same ones in different colors, I prefer the teal ones

Can you skip rocks? Not that I know

Tell me about a weird slang term from your area: We have very creative curse words in my native language and use "dick" instead of fuck for most things, like "what the dick is going on", "that's dicked up" and so on. We also send people into genitals as curse phrases, my favorite being "go into your mother's cunt" or even better, "go into three mothers' cunts", and all of this is a socially acceptable way of speaking from puberty onward

Favorite toast topping: I'm a savory type of gal and usually butter it and make it into a ham and cheese sandwich, or put pâté on it and some fancy cheese

Thoughts on bread pudding: I don't believe I've ever tried it, but I'm down for pretty much anything when it comes to food

City or country living? Somewhere in the middle, I live in a town with a 15 min walk to the center and am happy with that

How do you cheer yourself up after a bad day? Put on a comfort show or funny clips on youtube

Are you a pessimist or an optimist? I'm one of those annoying bitches that considers herself a realist. It's hard to tell due to my tendency to catastrophize things because of anxiety, though I generally know in my bones that things will work out

👩🏼‍🎤 Next tattoo you want (or would consider if you're not a tattoo person): I've never been brave enough to get a permanent tattoo, but I've been feeling zodiac constellations with your zodiac flower instead of stars lately, which would be a formation of (blue) lilies in my case. Definitely in the flowers, pixie/fairy and celestial art camp

🧐🆓 What's living in your head rent free this week: Same as the last four weeks, Our Flag Means Death, with a dash of Con O'Neill side obsession. My love of season 2 continues to consume every part of my brain and I fight the urge to rewatch it all (yet again) on a daily basis, it was glorious and gave me everything 💖

rules: shuffle your likes or your favorite playlist and post the first ten tracks

i'm doing my spotify liked playlist that has all the music ive liked since i was like 16, there's several thousand songs. but as we all know spotify doesn't actually know how to shuffle so

do I look lovely - gestalt : ok so this is one of my favorite songs of all time. is it good? idk. it's about crossdressing.

the same things happening to me all the time, even in my dreams - teen suicide : i was majorly into teen suicide as a teen. really solid angst music.

blister in the sun - violent femmes : a classic 🙏

if it makes you happy - michael cera palin : i used to sing this loudly in the shower and piss off my roommate when i was 20

bang bang bang - we butter the bread with butter : did i ever tell you about how when i was 15 i was obsessed with wbtbwb? during my hetalia phase? yeahhh

kiss me hard - swain : solid song. not much to say, its on one of my sex playlists.

doma molchat - molchat doma : i recurring favorite on my russian playlists

once in a lifetime - talking heads : whenever i hear this song i picture one of those jerma edits

bloody mary kate and ashley - pup : pup is in my top 5 fav bands so it's not really surprising to see at least one song here

wrath pinned to the mist and other games - of montreal : i learned to place this on bass once, its catchy.

tagging: whoever wants to do this... and @idonotblogatall

[tiefling-queer]

i want to go back to downloading all of my music and carrying an MP3 player and not having spotify, but my current dilemma is that i have yet to find an MP3 player that will let me create playlists without redownloading songs. If anyone knows a workaround for this, because playlist and mixtape making is my bread and butter and the death of 8tracks and playmoss hit me hard, please let me know
