Cute Little Headcannon #1

Steve soon realizes he likes himself in pastel colors. He figures it out when he’s playing with chalk (read that story by searching #stevehcolors) and he gets pale blues, pinks, and greens smeared up his arms. He starts wearing softly colored t-shirts and pastel yellow and blue jackets. He’s always excited for a rare occasion to mess around with hair chalk. One day he’s sitting on the couch with his legs swung over Billy’s lap, watching the TV.

“So, pink huh?”

“Hm?”

Steve looks over at Billy who’s playing with Steve’s hair. There was still some barely noticeable pastel pink hairchalk left in Steve’s hair from a party he’d been to earlier.

“Oh, well, that’s-”

“It’s cute.” Billy mumbled with a grin. Steve blushed a little. He liked it when Billy called him cute.

“I mean, I think you look like a child, and it’s stupid, and you might as well ware a sign saying that you’re a princess waiting for a prince, but-” Steve cut him off by kissing his lips softly and slowly.

“…but what?” Steve raised an eyebrow, daring Billy to go on with any other list of reasons he shouldn’t ware pastel colors.

“….but I think you look adorable…”

I feel like part of our fandom is like Steve Harrington and Joyce Byers and Hopper and Mike and Dustin and ect. We just strait up adopted Billy’s charecter because we saw the wrong he did, but also his potential. We didn’t excuse the harm he’s caused, but we understood the source and determined that he can have a chance at getting better. Because this side of the fandom is full of people who would give an abused teenager with anger issues a gentle and loving chance of hope to be better.

And then there’s that side of the fandom. It’s very small, but it’s full of Niels and Brenners and motherfreakin Tommys who not only won’t give him a chance, but would give anything to see him die.

But we will not mention them, as we are learning to ignore them.

Numb

Steve and Billy need to feel numb every once and a while. ‘Cause at the end of the day, they’re both two boys, who’ve been through some shit. Steve can’t take the pressure and his future as he sees it is crumbling apart. Billy is abused but can’t scream for help, and has some uncontained anger and pain. So once every week, maybe twice, they just lay on the couch together, turn on some music, and get high off of nicotine cigarettes. They don’t talk that much but it’s a comforting silence. They just lay on top of each other, sometimes Billy’ll hold Steve when he’s had a bad day of yelling and Niel kicks him around a bit. Steve’s been known to stop in the middle of a conversation between the two and almost collaps because of a rough day. Then Billy picks him up and lays him down and plays gentle music. And they just lay there, sometimes smoking nicotine until their brains go comfortingly numb, and sometimes fully sober and awake. It feels good on those days. When it’s too hot for couches, they go out into Steve’s pool, dangling their feet in the water or sometimes fully floating in. Steve likes it when Billy slowly pulls him underwater to the pool floor and they stay down there for as long as they can. Then, they feel like they can really block out the world, with just each other and no one else.

32nd Street AU (Crime Boss!Billy and Trophy Husband!Steve)

Billy started out as one of the top drag racers in Cali. He gradually evolves into running a huge operation of highly talented smuglers and racers who’ll ship things for cartels, assassinate people for mobs, and provide security for other crime bosses traveling through the state. It’s an underground and illegal operation, but Billy’s been doing it a long time, and he’s pretty happy with how it turned out. One day, one of his guys decides to recruit some kid named Steve Harrington. He’s real fast in the right car, and a hell of a shot with a sniper rifle. Billy keeps a close eye on him, not because he doesn’t trust him, but because he’s interested. Very interested.

It’s only been a couple months before Billy claims Steve as his. And Steve’s perfectly happy with that. They’d grown to love each other and the life style they’d been creating so well. Steve likes to appear easy to take advantage of, a bit like a doll that everyone wants to play with. And sometimes, clients can get a little too interested in Billy Hargrove’s husband. Sometimes they watch him for too long. Sometimes they get a little too close to touching him. But Steve never let’s them. He often puts a gun to their head before that happens. And besides, if they ever did, Billy’d take their hand clean off.

One time some stupid, sorry motherfucker acctualy tries to threaten Steve to get what he wants from Billy. Oh, Steve enjoyed getting a front row seat on Billy’s lap as he was killed, right after they made sure his entire empire fell. In fact, Steve’s the sharpshooter who took the shot.
