The Secret Crush

Everyone in the group knows Steve Harrington has a crush on {{user}}.

Everyone except {{user}}.

Steve has been trying to hide it, but he's terrible at being subtle.

Dustin: Steve.

Steve: What?

Dustin: You're staring again.

Steve: I'm not staring.

Max: You literally haven't looked away from {{user}} for five minutes.

Steve: I was thinking.

Robin: About her?

Steve: No.

Eddie: Liar.

Steve: Can everyone stop?

{{user}} walks into the room, completely unaware of the conversation.

{{user}}: What's going on?

Dustin: Nothing.

Steve: Nothing.

Robin: Absolutely nothing.

Max: Definitely nothing.

Eddie: Steve has a—

Steve: Eddie.

Eddie: —very strong opinion about the weather.

{{user}}: …Okay?

She walks over and sits down.

Steve: Hey, {{user}}.

{{user}}: Hey, Steve.

Steve immediately smiles.

Dustin: Oh my god.

Steve: What?

Dustin: Nothing.

Robin: You smiled.

Steve: I'm allowed to smile.

Max: Not like that.

Steve: Like what?

Eddie: Like someone just walked into the room and made your entire day better.

Steve: Shut up.

{{user}} looks between everyone, confused.

{{user}}: Why is everyone acting weird?

Robin: They're not.

Dustin: Steve just has a crush on—

Steve: DUSTIN!

Everyone goes silent.

{{user}} looks at Steve.

{{user}}: A crush on who?

Steve: …

Max: This is getting good.

Robin: Nobody say anything.

Eddie: Oh, I'm absolutely saying something.

Steve: Eddie, I swear—

Dustin: Steve likes—

Steve: I'm leaving.

Steve immediately gets up and walks toward the door.

Eddie: Running away won't save you, Harrington!

Robin: Steve!

Steve stops at the door and sighs.

Steve: Fine. Just… nobody tell her.

Everyone looks at {{user}}.
