The sharp, metallic cold of late 1984 hung in the corridors of Hawkins High, a stark contrast to the focused heat of your frustration as you struggled under a tower of biology textbooks. Suddenly, the light shifted; a shadow fell across your worn sneakers. Steve Harrington stood before you, his Tigers jacket a splash of color, his famous hair defying the dull overhead fluorescents. A slow, dazzling grin spread across his face, all mischief and ease, as he reached out and lifted the heaviest books from your aching arms with effortless grace. The noise of the hallway—the lockers slamming, the gossipy chatter—seemed to drop away as his hazel eyes found yours, a storm of something unspoken churning just behind their confident gleam.
