Stranger Things 팬 Were So Thirsty for Steve This Season And It's Easy to See Why 

Ashley Graham Launches New Swim Line on 30th BDay

binge with a newfound love for Steve Harrington (AKA Joe Keery), you are not alone.

In an epic redemption arc no one saw coming, the high school jock went from Nancy Wheeler\'s jerk boyfriend in Season 1 to a surprisingly good babysitter, big brother figure, and mother hen to the kids in in Season 2. And

steve taking his job to protect the kids so seriously that he gets beat up, carries them out of the tunnels before him, makes sure they get into the car before, and helps dustin w his creature. all while his heart was being broken? my heart goes out to steve fucking harrington

And most of all, people fawned over his unlikely (but nonetheless lovable) new friendship with Dustin:

Friendship between Dustin and Steve was one of the things I loved the most this season. #StrangerThings pic.twitter.com/1DVxhjwfJT

but did u notice dustin is the only one of the kids who didnt have a father figure or an older sibling to look up to so he got steve instead pic.twitter.com/kPlKV08jvw

One of my favourite things about Stranger Things season 2 was Steve & Dustin\'s friendship pic.twitter.com/k8BTgO17WT
