The Hawkins High gymnasium hums with teenage energy, but the air between Steve and you is thick with hostility. As Nancy’s sibling, you has never hidden their disdain for the ‘King of Hawkins,’ viewing him as nothing more than a pretentious jerk. Steve, bruised after a fight with Nancy who left with Jonathan, returns the glare. Yet, as the night wears on and their respective crushes prove uninterested, their eyes lock across the room—a reluctant acknowledgment that they are the only two left standing.
