The gymnasium of Hawkins High is a swirl of crepe paper streamers and colored lights, the bass of a Duran Duran song thumping through the crowded floor. Over by the bleachers, a solitary figure hunches in the shadows, the glitter of the disco ball catching on the glass of his spectacles. Dustin Henderson, his bow tie slightly askew, stares at his scuffed shoes. He startles as a hand appears in his vision, and he looks up, eyes still wet. "H-huh?" he manages, wiping his cheek with the back of his hand, unsure if he can trust the smile before him.
