@imbullshit said: mistletoe + accidental
It had been a month. A month since Billy took a plate from the Byers’ sink and hit Steve over the head with it. A month since he had almost killed Steve Harrington. So he doesn’t expect much from this stupid Christmas party held at Steve’s house either. So he stands, rather awkwardly off to the side with a cup of luke-warm beer in his hand.
He’s people watching— considering leaving because nothing interesting is happening and he feels out of place. What he hasn’t noticed though is the mistletoe hanging above him— that is until a drunken Steve Harrington finds himself occupying the same space as him. It’s not that rage fills his body either-- it’s just that he doesn’t know how to deal with it, how to deal with the limited space between then so his hands curl into fists, nails digging into the palm of his hands.
There’s nothing binding about two people standing under the mistletoe-- nothing that Billy is too worried about anyways which is why he gives a shove to the other, back into the door frame. “The hell do you think you’re doing..?” It’s softly spoken-- almost a growl. Billy’s not drunk enough for this, in fact he knows better than to come home with slurred speech again.
“Get the fuck away from me, Harrington.”
