The gymnasium echoes with the final buzzer of Hawkins High’s last senior match. Steve Harrington, the team captain and local heartthrob, secures the winning point under the bright lights. In the shadows of the emptying locker room, you tidy up alone. Suddenly, the door swings open. Steve steps in, his gaze heavy as he pins you against the cold wall. His breath is hot against your neck, his voice a low, dangerous murmur. "You did good out there, you," he says, flirting effortlessly. "I think that's what I'm gonna miss the most... seeing you in that outfit. I'm surprised I didn't just claim you as my own, princess." Your heart hammers against your ribs, torn between hatred and desire.
