"HEY DINGUS, YOUR CHILDREN ARE  here," Robin called out and Steve opened the windows and looked at them annoyed. 

"I swear if anyone hears about this-" Steve said and the kids all walked away.

"-We're dead!" They all finished his sentence and Steve turned to Bea.

"See you in two hours," she said, kissing him quickly. He pulled her back in for another kiss which lasted longer.

"Come on Bea, We're going to miss it if you keep kissing your boyfriend," Will yelled out and Bea laughed.

"Coming Peanut," she yelled out, running after him but not before one last kiss.

They snuck in, walking to the theater. They squeezed through everyone else and Bea sat on the end next to Will. They all shared out the snacks Bea had grabbed before the movie started.

Suddenly the movie stopped and the whole theater looked around annoyed.

Then the movie turned back on and the whole crowd cheered. Bea turned to look at Will who was staring vacantly at the screen, his hand on his neck.

"You alright Will?" She whispered as she saw him look panicked.

"Yeah," he replied and she looked at him annoyed.

"You'll tell me if something is wrong ok," Bea whispered and Will nodded his head.

"I'm fine really," he whispered, leaning his head against her shoulder.

SHE DROVE IN THE COP CAR WITH Hopper after lunch since he was giving her the rest of the day off.

"You going to rant to Joyce?" she asked and he sighed.

"No, we are just going to talk," he said and then he had a brilliant idea.

"When did you have your first kiss?" He asked and Bea looked at him confused.

"Uh, 13," she said, still wondering why he asked about it.

"With who?" He asked and Bea just stared at him, "Steve. I was pretty pissed. He just kissed me and then out friendship went downhill," she explained and he nodded his head. "Why'd you ask?"

"El and Mike, they kiss constantly, its got to be an issue," he explained and Bea laughed, turning to look at the man who had been more like her father than her actual one had been.

"What about you and Harrington. You two kiss a lot?" He asked and Bea cringed.

"That's a weird question chief. But I guess so, enough to make Dustin uncomfortable all the time," she explained and Hopper nodded his head.

Bea took a sip of her water and Hopper turned to look into the distance.

"You two having sex?" He asked and Bea nearly spit her drink, turning back to look at him quickly.

"Huh!" She exclaimed and he realised what he had said, Hoppers face going red.

"No, I mean like. You think that Mike and El. I just thought if you and Steve now then them now I just-" Hopper rambled on awkwardly, realising what he had said.

Bea laughed to herself.

"I'm going to ignore your first question Hop. But Mike and El. They are too innocent for that, I think you still have a few years," she explained and Hopper let out a relieved sigh.

Hopper parked outside of StarCiurt Mall and turned to Bea who was collecting her stuff.

"I wasn't going to mention it Officer Henderson but you have two options here," he said and Bea turned to him confused as she stepped out of the car. "You tell Harrington to stop or you hide your hickeys better," he said and Bea looked at him annoyed.

"I hate you Hop," she said, closing the door.

"Love you too Bea," he yelled out after her, smiling as he watched the teenager skip off.

She walks up to Scoops Ahoy to wait for Dustin as Hopper gave her the rest of the day off

"Hey captain, can I buy an ice cream," Bea said and Steve smiled, leaning over the side.

"Ahoy Bear," he said, throwing his hat away.

"Oh my god, you're a whole new man," Robin said and Bea smiled at her.

The two kissed quickly before she slid along the bar stools to allow other customers to pay. Once they were done Steve turned back to her.

"Would you like to set sail on this ocean of flavours with me. I'll be your captain," he said, winking and she leaned over the table.

"Sir, yes, sir," Bea said, kissing him quickly before walking to the other side of the counter.

"I love this," he said, placing his hands on her hips as she wrapped her arms around his neck. "This outfit I mean," he said as he looked at the blue button up shirt. She had unbuttoned about three of the top buttons but not too low that it showed anything.

He held the key from her necklace delicately in his hands before kissing her.

Suddenly the bell went off.

"Dingus, get that," Robin yelled out and Bea walked back so he could give the person their ice cream.

AFTER HE HAD FINISHED UP THAT night Bea and Steve walked out to the car park, hand in hand.

"I wonder where Dustin is, he said he'd meet us here," Bea said as she sat in the passengers seat, Steve driving the two back to her house.

"I'm sure he has a good reason," Steve said, kissing her on the head, never taking his eyes off of the road.

They opened the door, walking into her house and Steve watched as she called out Dustins name, nobody responding to them.

"Lets wait for him here, watch a movie or something," Steve suggested as he walked over to Bea who was sitting on the sofa.

"Yeah, alright," she said. Both of them got changed into spare clothes - Steve always kept a spare pair at Bea's - before she walked into the living room, snuggling into his side and flicking through the channel until they found a movie.

Dustin walked in later that night and saw the two asleep on the couch, Bea's head lying in her boyfriends lap. Dustin smiled at the two, sad that he couldn't visit the two as soon as he got back.

He pulled a nearby blanket over the two, watching as they eased into the warmth, before walking off to his room.

BEA WOKE UP THE NEXT MORNING,  slowly easing away from Steve who was still fast asleep on the sofa.

She checked in Dustins room to see he was already gone and so was their mum so she just got changed, noticing how hers and Steve work uniform was both sitting in their laundry room. She walked towards it suspiciously and picked up a note on top.

'Thought you two would need these washed, love you, from mum' it read out and Bea smiled to herself as she walked into her bedroom.

When she turned around she saw Steve in the doorway, rubbing his eyes as he looked at Bea, his hair messy from last night before the movie still.

"Morning Sleepy head," she said, kissing him on the cheek before handing him his clothes.

"My mum washed them. Now hurry up, you have to get to work," she said and he smiled at her, grabbing his clothes. "Turn around Harrington, I'm getting charged,' she said and he chuckled, closing his eyes out of respect as he walked into the bathroom to brush his teeth.

The two then drove to his work, sitting together and chatting aimlessly.
