Tension (Steve Harrington)

Chap. 42; The Case of the Evil Russins Invading Indiana

"So what are you doing on the fl-"

"Top secret spy craft." Glancing to the boy and back to John. "You know hush hush kinda stuff can't say." John couldn't help but scoff at her, neither could Steve. When Steve noticed John laughing and he gave him a look a look that was unnoticed by everyone but Dustin.

"Sounds Secret. Is this a whole summer thing, or can you actually tell me how that's been?"

"It's been very enjoyable." Lauren said with a smile quickly, glancing at Steve, who wasn't umfavt smiling. Instead, he was scouling. When her eyes went back to John, she couldn't help but look back to see Steve's sour look. "How... about yours." Lauren said reluctantly.

"Good, good. You know great now that I don't have to go to advance trig every day."

"Oh my god," she felt like someone took her bag full of text boxes of her back when someone said this. "Yeah, like, you know how much I love math, and I hated that class."

"But it wasn't even the class it was..."

"Mr. Atkins." The said at the same time, which was a long time coming. Steve may have been getting a tad on the irritated side. They said things at the same time, not them.

"Are you taking AP Calc next year?" Lauren nooded. "Good, good, i'll actually have someone I like to talk to." Steve stood up and grabbed Lauren's wrist softly.

"God man, does the bracelet gotta say Steve on it?" Both John and Lauren had a confused look on their faces. "She's got a boyfriend."

"Umm, yeah, see ya, Lauren." Lauren nooded as he walked off. Lauren turned to Steve, her face read of slight excitement and slight anger.

"Damn jealous much? He's just a friend, and we were just talking." Lauren patted yis chest kneeling down next to the boy with the binoculars.

"I tried to stop him, but they never listened." Dustin whisped to Lauren.

"Thanks, kid." Lauren scoffed, giving Steve a fake distausteful look. Truth be told, she kind of liked him being a little jealous, but there was a difference between this and crazy jealous boyfriend that she didn't like. This, this made he feel something she couldn't describe.

"Hop, I think I could be inside of you, and you'd still look so goddamn charming, and guys would still "just talk" to you." Steve added air quotes to the just talk.

"What do you mean?"Just talk." There, Steve?"

"I mean... he wanted to fuck you."

"What? No he didn't." Steve nodded holding her hand softly like she was naive before she pulled it away. "No Steve."

"I'm afraid so. You're hot, you're smart, you're my little weirdo." Lauren laughed a little she couldn't, not Lauren at his stupidity. "Who. Wouldn't... want to fu -" Before Steve finished his sentence, their lips were already touching for a quick peck until a hand slapped across both their arms.

"Guys, Russian detected."

"Really, let me see." Lauren sounded very interested and pulled the binoculars away from Dustin but in turned pulled him to as they were an a string around his neck. Steve pulled tnem aswell trying to see through them, too. The binoculars and the eyes behind them followed the tall blond man with a duffel bag through the mall. Both teens felt a hand pull them to their feet to follow with their legs and not just their eyes.

Running passed people and pushing through others the reached the top of the escalator. They remained unseen by the quote endquote Russian geeting as far as the could. Unsee by others, however, was hardly a fact. "Watch it dickwad!" A man yelled at Steve as he bounced off him.
