girls, will you please take the wheel?

steve harrington x fem!reader

summary: fresh off of a breakup, followed by getting laid off from your teaching job, you’re down on your luck and two inches away from being flat broke. your friend gets you into a bottle service gig at her swanky bar, The Goldfinch. you show up to your first shift, unsure if you’re cut out to schmooze patrons, unclear on the expectations of the extent of your duties, and most definitely not expecting to meet a quiet man with kind eyes who’s feeling beaten up by a string of relationships that never lead anywhere, no matter how desperately he wants them to. as you and steve get to know each other over late night drives, shared dinners, and one swanky gala, you realize you just might have found your knight in shining armor.

a/n: this is my submission for @moonstoneandmoonlight and @graywrenhart’s summer sleepover event! Pretty Woman is one of my favorite romcoms and the inspiration for the series :)
