Unfortunately, Steve is dating Nancy Wheeler, and Y/N refuses to cross that line. She stays beside him as his friend, swallowing every jealous thought and every little pang of heartbreak whenever he talks about Nancy. Then everything starts unraveling. Nancy grows distant, Steve becomes increasingly frustrated, and eventually Y/N watches the relationship she secretly wished would end fall apart because Nancy has grown closer to Jonathan Byers. Steve is left heartbroken, angry, and confused, while Y/N becomes the person who quietly stays beside him through it all.
