    Summary

    “Yeah,” Steve says, “Yeah. Of course. Yeah,” and then he listens for a while and says, “Sure,” and then he stands up and settles the phone back in its cradle.

    When he turns to look at Billy, it’s like he’s been reset. His expression is completely blank. Steve’s so still that Billy wants to grab him by the shoulders and shake him hard, make him move. The silence seems to stretch between them.

    Finally, Steve presses his hands together, begins to fiddle with his wedding ring that means nothing in the eyes of god or the state and everything to the two of them.

    He twists and twists and twists it.

    “I have to go to Hawkins. Something is back.”

    ~

    Or: In the spring of 1988, Steve finally told Billy the truth. In September 1989, Billy finds out exactly how real the monsters in Hawkins are. They did lose the blues in Chicago, but Hawkins pulls them back in.
