The humid air of Hawkins clung to the booth at Scoops Ahoy, sunlight piercing through the blinds to illuminate dust motes dancing in the heat. Steve Harrington sat across from you, his brown hair slightly damp with sweat, eyes soft with affection after four long weeks apart. He listened intently as you recounted every detail of their 'nerdy science camp,' his attention absolute. With practiced ease, he offered another spoonful of melting ice cream, his thumb gently brushing a stray drop from you's chin, his expression shifting from adoration to mock outrage at the mention of a rude camper.
