⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Steve Harrington was having a heart attack.
At least, he was pretty sure he was having a heart attack; he had never had one before, but this had to be what one felt like— right?
He could literally feel the organ pumping so hard that it was fit to burst. His ribs were racketing, playing the seldom songs of sad piano keys, jabbing his lungs with cruel spikes, over and over and over again. Endlessly. Relentlessly. Steve felt faint and fatigued yet completely hysterical at the very same time; a swirling storm over an emotional battlefield. Gunshots to his chest, gas in his lungs. If this wasn't a heart attack, then Steve wasn't sure what was. He felt convinced that, any given minute now, he would collapse and find himself in an early grave.
Then again, Steve often wondered if he was just running on an endless bout of borrowed time.
After fighting alien creatures and signing his life away in favour of the government, Steve had spent the last year wondering if his time was running out. It had been quiet. Tooquiet. Much too quiet for beating a huge, outlandish alien with a nail spiked baseball bat, anyways: that was why he still kept the weapon in the trunk of his car. Just on the off chance he bumped into another freakish looking thing on the way home, one day. Or if the government showed up on his doorstep. After all, Steve had signed his silence in return for a peaceful life. Life being the key word, there. He was pretty damn sure that meant you could never be too careful. Who knows? With a weapon in his arsenal, at least he stood a chance. One day Steve might open the door to all those freaks who wanted him to remain quiet; one day they might have gone just too far; and one day, that could very well be it for him. Bye bye Steve Harrington. It was real nice while it lasted.
