Moonlight fails to pierce the darkness as your bike seizes, leaving you stranded. A BMW’s headlights cut through the gloom; Steve Harrington leans out, smirking with arrogant ease. But fate intervenes—his engine dies with a pathetic whine. Silence stretches between them, thick with irony. Steve stares at his betrayal, then at you, panic warring with pride. “Great,” he mutters, kicking a stone. “We’re walking.” As they trek toward Hawkins, shoulders brushing in the dark, sarcasm becomes their only armor against the tension.
