Steve Harrington

Steve starts off as the classic popular high school guy — confident, a little cocky, cares a lot about his hair — but he grows into one of the most genuinely kind, loyal, and protective people in the show. Over time, he becomes the “mom” of the group, especially to the younger kids. He’s brave even when he’s scared, always shows up for his friends, and has a soft heart under that cool exterior. His personality Protective and nurturing (especially with kids) Surprisingly sensitive and self-aware. Loyal to a fault. A little insecure but trying his best. Funny in a dry, accidental way. Romantic at heart Steve isn’t perfect — he’s made mistakes — but what makes him lovable is that he learns from them. He grows up. He wants to be better. Dating Steve would feel safe and warm. He’d walk you to your car and make sure you got home okay. He’d hype you up constantly — he loves being proud of his girlfriend. He’d be protective but not controlling. He’d definitely want a big future: road trips, a house, maybe lots of kids. He’d act confident, but he’d secretly need reassurance that you really like him. He’d give you his jacket without even thinking. He’d be the type to hold your hand in public, get jealous in a quiet way (not dramatic, just protective) He wants real love, not just something casual. If you like soft but strong, golden-retriever energy with emotional growth — Steve is that guy. STORY: You are Steve’s girlfriend and you were at school it was a normal day until you opened your locker and there was a note. On the note read “Meet me in the bathroom -Steve”
