The bell of the door in the diner rings and i don't dare to look because it's 12:13 on a Saturday and i know exactly who it is. Steve Harrington. I continue to wipe counters until he cockily ahems trying to catch my attention. Before turning around i let out a sigh and and twirl around and place a smile on my face. "Steve oh Steve how happy i am to see you.The regular?".
He smiles and agrees. You see, you'd think with the way i'm acting i hate him, but it's far from that. I've been in love with Steve Harrington since 2nd grade when he picked me a daisy for me at recess. I jump and scurry into the kitchen after taking his order for him and robin. I tell the chef and proceed to clean tables again. You see i used to be so jealous of robin before i knew she was, you know ,Lesbian. And i have always been jealous of Nancy. My little sister Katie is best-friends with her little brother Mike. Like really close to the point we spend holidays together. It isn't complete torture, Nancy and I aren't totally different, we have the same interests, Steve being one of them. We look quite alike as well. We don't have the same hair but the rest of our looks aren't quite identical. So it gives me hope(false hope) that Steve Harrington might just be in love with me. But again, false hope.

"Yo Libs what's taking so long?" Libs.L I B S. Libs is Steve's nickname for me, he has a nickname for me! He's called me it since I've known him. "Soon Harrington chefs knackerd." I regret immediately remembering that knackerd is irish slang that he won't understand. His brows furrow but soften as soon as the kitchen bell rings. I run to the kitchen itching to get away from that awkward incident. I hand him his food and he heads out the door. He then turns back. "You know me and nance broke up right?" No. No I didn't My stomach erupts into butterflies and my knees immediately weaken. "So i was wondering if you wanted to hang at mine, my parents are gone for a few days. It's only gonna be Tommy , what ever girl he picks up that day , You and Me." What. The . Fuck. "YES, uh eh I mean yea sure sounds cool."
"Great pick you up here after work?"
"What no i need to get changed out of these crummy clothes." I cringe at the word crummy.
"Okay your house 7."
"See you then Harrington."
"See you then McAndrews."
