I guess I'll take it. You're like the goofy little brother I never had anyways.

It's so weird having you as my wingman, do you know that? But yeah, bowling sounds good. There's also that carnival next town over if you two want to go.

[nocollarbones]

Exactly.

Oh....carnival could be better. And away from Hawkins means no one there knows Eddie or will be confused as to why you two are hanging out.

Smart suggestion.

[hairsprayed]

Yeah and a ferris wheel is a little more romantic than a bowling alley. Just a little.

[nocollarbones]

Exactly!

Okay so
I will let him know about the plan.

With that out of the way....
....
It's Will.

1/2

[hairsprayed]

You're definitely being held responsible if this plan goes south.

What will?

2/2

[hairsprayed]

YOU LIKE WILL?

[nocollarbones]

I will take full responsibility if it does.

[ Waiting for it.... ]

....yes....

[hairsprayed]

Since when? For how long? Does he know?

[nocollarbones]

Since we started hanging out after he got back and he decided to start changing up his look and it really cute

And no...he doesn't know....yet.

[ He is NOT about to tell Steve that Eddie was the first to find out.

He'd feel like shit. ]

[hairsprayed]

Do you know if he's gay? Are you gonna tell him you like him?

[nocollarbones]

Yes I know he likes guys

and...

Yeah I was thinking I might tell him? I have a plan...sort of.

[hairsprayed]

Ok good. What's your plan? Please tell me it's not the same as your plan for me and Eddie.

[nocollarbones]

Nope.

We're going to go see a double feature at the drive in.

They're playing the Lord of the Rings movies and we're gonna set up a tent and my radio and watch them. Just us and a bunch of snacks.

[hairsprayed]

Hey that's pretty cute, and if it's awkward you can focus on the movie. You gonna kiss him if he's into it?

[nocollarbones]

I mean
That's the plan yeah...

[hairsprayed]

Do I need to talk to you about protection?

[nocollarbones]

NO!

GOD NO!

JESUS FUCK NO!

[hairsprayed]

DON'T YELL AT ME! It's important ok and not just with chicks.

[nocollarbones]

Steve I appreciate you
But
It is way too weird to have you trying to give me the safe sex talk
Almost as bad as if it were Eddie
Wait
No
It's worse.

[hairsprayed]

What happened to me being the cool older brother?

[nocollarbones]

I mean you ARE
it's still...
I don't know.

[ Look Steve it's nothing to do with you and completely to do with the fact he is an awkward teen and he honestly hadn't even been thinking that far ahead with Will. ]

BESIDES
There's a chance that will never happen
AND
Even if it does it's so far from now

[hairsprayed]

Ok that's fair, it's important that both of you are ready and into it. Just... promise you'll ask if you need something and don't want to talk to your mom about it.

[nocollarbones]

Yes Steve
I promise if I have any questions about having gay sex I will come straight to you
.....
....
Thanks for being here.

[hairsprayed]

It's not just about the sex but yeah. You're welcome.

Thanks for trying to set me up with someone important to you.

[nocollarbones]

Yeah
I mean
You're both important to me and you both being happy is important to me.
