Summary
The whole class had instantly erupted into cheers and chatter when Mr. Fitzgerald instructed them to find their own lab partner, rather than assigning the pairs himself.
Max didn’t even have time to think before Dustin was whirling around in his seat to beam at her with his fist outstretched, and she hesitated, uncertain. But just as quickly her chest was tightening as she realized she was hesitating for Dustin. So she swallowed the lump in her throat, forced a half-hearted smile, and bumped her fist against his.
“Partners!” He exclaimed, too loudly, of course.
“Partners,” she agreed.

Summary
“I’m telling your mom on you for bullying me,” Steve whined, taking a stupid silly tone that made Robin huff out a soft laugh and snuggle into his side impossibly further, both of them lapsing into a comfortable quiet that erased whatever lingering fear had been trying to take up space in Steve’s chest.
Quiet, not silence. It was a tiny distinction, barely there for most people, but it meant everything to the two of them. Steve and Robin were both motormouths- people who obsessively needed to fill empty spaces with music or talking or whatever sound they could find. They didn’t do well in silence.
But on nights like this- nights where Steve woke up with a gasp, shaking and stuttering out answers for questions that only ghosts were looking for answers to- he needed quiet, and he needed the only person in the world who could make quiet bearable.

Summary
Steve drives quietly for a blessed few minutes, then he clears his throat and darts a look at her again. “You know, I get bad dreams too. After all the hell we’ve been through, I don’t know how we couldn’t have bad dreams.”
“Steve, seriously, I don’t want to talk about it.”
Steve’s quiet again and Max’s head is starting to feel fuzzy, but she refuses to give in and ask to be taken home. Not after she made such a big stink about it.
“I went to a gay bar tonight.”
Max blanches, mouth dropping open, and she gapes at Steve. She’s awake now.
“What?”

5 times Max doesn’t think Eddie is good enough for her stand-in brother/new mom, + 1 time he earns her blessing.

Summary
Michael Afton and El have enough secrets and hardships to last a lifetime. There's no real reason these secrets should ever interact.
There's no reason that Michael should ever see a land filled with ash and strange creatures that seek to spread like a virus. There's no reason El should ever see that monsters don't just come from hidden dimensions; they can also come from the house down the street.
But things are never so easy.

"He was going to. A mo-tel," Jane sounds out the syllables carefully, a child repeating an unfamiliar word.
Joyce's heart drops.

Everyone's favourite platonic soulmates learn life lessons and get into shenanigans together while figuring out that love doesn't have to be romantic.
"She’d throw herself in front of anything if it meant not having to hold her breath to try and feel his body moving against her back, giving some sign that he was still pulling oxygen into his lungs. She’d spit in the face of anything that laughed at his pain. Two weeks ago the sight of his stupid hair and stupid face filled her with something red and hot, now she thought she might die for him if it came down to it. Love was weird like that, even when it was platonic."

Summary
“Alcohol is very traitorous,” Boris points out, “Good with friends, bad with family. My buddy in Las Vegas had been going through the same thing. His father never hit him, I think, but he had serious problem.”
“Wow.”
“It’s more common than we think… Bastard dads.”
“That’s true,” he mumbles, thinking of Eleven and her Papa.
