    Summary

    So here’s the thing, he thinks, splayed out on the floor with unknown drugs making the whole world a red-tinged haze and a handful of terrified, wide-eyed, furious middle-schoolers gazing down at him like he’s a slug that they somehow stepped on.
    This? Right here? He lays his head back against the floor, breathing hard and tasting copper. This is rock fucking bottom.
    *
    Billy Hargrove hits rock bottom, but the universe has a pick-axe and the will to dig. When he comes out on the other side, miraculously alive, Steve Harrington is there. Because of course he is.
    The weird part is, he stays.

    Summary

    The first time was in November, months ago.

    Like, two weeks tops after Billy rearranges Harrington’s face on that creepy house’s living room floor. The bruises are still there, faded, yeah, but still visible, dark splotches around his eyes and nose and mouth, brands of Billy’s fists, clear evidence that Billy’s king, now, that Steve Harrington's been, blinking and shaking and teary-eyed, demoted to princess.

    And yet.

    And yet, fucking Harrington didn’t get the message, even though it’s written all over his fucking face, and Billy’s seething.

    Or: what to do when you're all worked up from basketball practice and Steve Harrington's there and willing. (Fall kinda in love, of course, but fight it all the way down.)

    Summary

    Still, he is getting really desperate. He needs help with his essay or he's SOL for college. So Steve asks, “Who?”

    Robin flashes him her brilliant smile. “Billy Hargrove.”

    “Billy Hargrove, as in the douchebag with the mullet who literally brained me with a plate and left me with a nifty scar that I am only so lucky my gorgeous hair covers?” Steve tugs back his hair line, revealing a small, snaking, white scar.

    Robin pushes up on the table to get a better look. “I mean, I’m not disagreeing with anything you’ve said. But, he’s also the top student in Honors English.”

    Summary

    “You’re okay when you’re not getting on my nerves.”

    “Only okay? You wound me, Harrington.”

    “I think,” Steve changes the subject before he does something stupid like tell Billy exactly how he feels about him. He’s drunk, sue him. “I think the fresh air is good for us, we’re like undisciplined dogs.”

    “Yeah, what’s up with that? Why do we fight so much?”

    You want me to tell you? Like, you really want me to tell you?

    Steve shrugs. “No idea, man.”

    Summary

    That’s when Billy realized the true extent to which he had miscalculated, the absolute shit storm he'd gotten himself into. This was a risk which he had in no way been prepared to deal with.

    Harrington was teaching this class.
    This class, which Billy had paid money to attend.
    This class, which was going to take place twice a week for the rest of the semester.

    He had hoped time would kill his stupid crush on Harrington, or at least dull the edges of it, but his longing burned sharp as ever.

    Billy had miscalculated, and he was totally fucked.

    = =

    Karma.

    It was one of those things Steve knew about because all the wellness blogs and yoga instructor certification courses talked about essential oils and chakras and your third eye. It was a thing.

    This, right here. It had to be karma.

    He was currently trying to guide an intro vinyasa sequence while pretending not to notice that Billy fucking Hargrove was wearing unnecessarily short shorts. His thighs made it clear the man did not skip leg day.

    Steve would have had better luck ignoring him if Billy wasn’t so goddamn bad at yoga. Part of Steve wanted to write Billy off as a lost cause. He knew he wouldn’t.
