A/N: So these two chapters weren't in my original plan at first. As I thought about it, I figured Dawn would want to spend the weekend with her best friend's. I do have another chapter in the future planned where she comes back that's right before the chapter where it catches up with where we last saw the group. I'm pretty sure The Byers and El moved in November so I just had to have at least one chapter bringing Dawn back. I also tried to find some fics to read so I could get a better grasp on Robin's character as I'm not the most confident when I write for her.

The plan for this weekend was spending it with Dawn as she was going to be moving into her dorm Monday. I was going to miss her and I planned on going up to see her when I could as her college was two and a half hours away. I knew that we both didn't want to make that trip all the time and it was going to be hard when I found a job. Steve, Robin and I still had no luck, but hopefully when everyone was going off to college, there would be openings. Dawn had wanted to spend the majority of Friday with just Robin and I, so she had told Jake that he should ask Steve if he wanted to hang out with him and Danny.

The plan for later tonight was going to be something we did often, drink beer, smoke joints and eat a lot of junk food. I had guessed that Jake and Steve would be joining us later tonight. Tomorrow the plan was to just lounge at Steve's pool because it was going to be nice.
"You still haven't told us about California." Dawn had looked to me as I was dunking fries into my milkshake,
"I already told you that I wanted to save the details for today. I knew it would bring you some joy." I smirked. She raised her eyebrows as she was waiting for me to tell her everything,
"I found out that my dad was dating a twenty-five year old who was hitting on Steve the entire time we were there. She even came out in a satin nightgown." I rolled my eyes,
"She was interested in dingus?" Robin asked as it was hard for her to believe, "I mean I still don't know what you see in him but a twenty-five year old?" She asked,
"Please, you think we are the cutest couple ever." I smirked as I knew she was joking

"So what did you do?" Dawn asked
"We were all over each other." I shrugged, "We also ran into the people I was hoping we wouldn't see." I shut my eyes,
"Did Steve kick their ass?" Dawn asked,
"He didn't kick their ass, but he did stick up for me." I looked to the two of them
"What did they say?" Dawn asked,
"I found out that Nick was cheating on me the last few months of our relationship, most likely with Bella because they were holding hands." I rolled my eyes, "Then Kayla had asked him how much I was paying him and that she could show her a better time. Steve had cut her off and told her that he wouldn't choose to be with anyone but me." I told her, "Max had mentioned the next day that they were jealous of me." I added
"Of course they are! You are hot and amazing with a hotter boyfriend than your ex." Dawn rolled her eyes, "But if you do decide to go back, take me with you because I will kick their asses." She was serious,
"I know you would. Max said that she would want to come just to see that." I laughed. "I also learned that the kids call me, dad and Steve, mom." I looked at the two of them. Dawn and Robin started to laugh,
"I can totally see that." Dawn looked at Robin, "I have to get him one of those number one mom mugs." Dawn looked over to me,
" I'm never going to let him live it down." Robin shook her head,
"He actually talked to the kids when we got back. It was the cutest and funniest thing." I told the two,
"Then that must make you the cool aunt." Dawn nudged Robin before Dawn made the face when she had an idea, "When you three get a job, you could all rent an apartment together! It would be so much fun!" Dawn exclaimed,
"I don't need to be hearing the two of them in the middle of the night." Robin shook her head,
"I can be quiet." I crossed my arms,
"Bullshit." Dawn gave me that devilish smirk of hers
"I'm not taking my chances." Robin rolled her eyes.

We had finished our meals and headed to the store to pick up junk food before going back to Dawn's. We were all hanging out in her kitchen before Dawn had brought up Robin's love life again,
"One thing you have to promise me, is to be Robin's wingwoman while I'm at college." Dawn looked to me as Robin let out a disgusted sigh,
"I don't need a wingwoman or for you to play matchmaker." Robin looked to her friend,
"I just thought it would be fun for all of us to go out on a triple date some time." Dawn looked over to Robin with her puppy dog eyes, "I was even planning on keeping an eye out for anyone at my school." She added before the doorbell rang,
"I'll get that." I said before I quickly went to the front door to see Steve on the other side,
"I thought you would be more excited to see me." He smiled as I was confused,
"Sorry, Stevie." I gave him an apologetic smile, "I just thought Jake was going to be with you." I told him before I leaned in for a kiss,
"I told Jake to go to Steve's tomorrow. I thought it would be fun to spend tonight with the original four." She shrugged, "I'm going to miss hanging out with you guys so I figured one night without Jake would be fine." She waved a hand before going upstairs. As I turned back to look at Steve he held up a few joints, I took one before running upstairs after Dawn.

The blow up mattress wasn't set up for Steve and I to sleep on and that was because Dawn had said we could sleep in her brother's old room as it was now a guest bedroom.
"Oh! I have a present for you Steve." Dawn had told Steve, he had looked at me confused. I pinched my nose as I didn't know that she meant she was going to get the mug and give it to him tonight. Knowing Dawn, she hid it from me so I wouldn't stop her. Dawn had handed Steve a small gift bag with some tissue paper in it, "Think of it as an early Christmas present." She smiled as she watched him open it. As soon as they saw the look on his face, Dawn and Robin burst into laughter,
"You told them?" He asked me as he was now holding the mug,
"They're my best friends." I shrugged, "Besides, if I wouldn't have told them, Max would have at some point." I explained. I watched him sigh, "Think of it as a compliment." I touched his arm, "It just means you're going to make a great dad someday." I told him. Steve was taken aback at first as he wasn't expecting me to say that to him. I could tell that he didn't want to be anything like his dad when that day would come, but just watching him with the kids was enough for me to know that he wouldn't be anything like him,
"You two would have cute kids." Dawn commented,
"I think it's a little too soon to be talking about kids." I looked over to her, "We already have a bunch of teenagers to watch after. We don't need any babies added into the mix." I told her.

"Just saying." She shrugged

As the four of us were watching the movie, we had drunk a few beers and had gone through a joint each (except Robin). I could already feel myself wanting Steve, as it usually happened when the two of us drank and smoked. I was sure he could tell as I was being a little fidgety as he was rubbing my leg and drawing small circles on it (I could swear he was teasing me on purpose). When the movie ended Dawn insisted that the three of us take a shot before we all went to bed.

I did my best to make it not seem like I was rushing out of the room as I didn't want Robin or Dawn to think anything. Steve was lingering as I was squeezing his hand,
"Jake knows where I live, right?" He asked Dawn,
"I think so." She yawned, "He's picking me up anyway so, if anything I know where you live." She shrugged. "Your parents are going to be out tomorrow, right?" She asked as I knew Dawn didn't want to meet Steve's dad,
"Yeah." Steve nodded. I let out a sigh as I wanted to get Steve alone. When he looked at me, he smirked, "Do you need to go home first?" He asked me,
"Yeah." I let out a big yawn, "I'm starting to feel really tired. I'm gonna head to bed." I started to take a few steps back, "Sweet dreams." I smiled at Dawn and Robin as Steve started to follow me out.
"I'll be right there." He kissed my cheek before he went off to the bathroom. I groaned as I went to the guest room. I had changed into one of Steve's shirts that I took from his house and sat on the bed as I waited for him. When he came in and shut the door, I got up quickly and started to kiss him,
"You are the worst, Steve Harrington." I said between kisses,
"You don't mean that." He pulled away to take off my shirt. I raised my eyebrows as he smirked,
"Maybe I do." I teased before I attacked his lips again and started to take off his clothes, not really caring where I threw them.

The next morning my head hurt a little bit from the drinking but it was nothing that some water and aspirin couldn't fix. I had moved myself closer to Steve as I was still reveling in how amazing last night was. Steve had pulled me even closer to him as I figured he was starting to wake up,
"Morning." I whispered before there was a knock on the door,
"If you guys don't get up, we're eating your breakfast!" Dawn said cheerily,
"Be down in five." I called back,
"I'm timing you two." She said before I could hear her go downstairs,
"She couldn't give us five more minutes?" Steve groaned before he slowly got out of bed.

That's when I had noticed there were some scratches on his back. It must have happened last night, and it was the first time (to my knowledge) that I left marks on him,
"Stevie." I spoke,
"Yeah, Ty?" He asked me,
"I left uhm...some scratches on your back." I told him as I felt my face was getting hot. He looked at me smiling,
"It's fine, Ty." He reassured me (it probably wasn't the first time he's gotten scratch marks). I sat up in and noticed that he was looking at me,
"I left a mark on your chest." He pointed. I looked down to see a bruise was starting to show. I bit my lip as I didn't mind that I had a reminder of last night. I looked at Steve and smirked before I remembered that we were going to go swimming later today.
"Fuck." I swore as I got out of bed,
"Sorry Ty, I-"

"I'm not swearing because of that." I gestured to my bruise, any other time would be fine, "It's just that we planned on hanging out by your pool." I looked at him as he shrugged.
"Dawn will be fine." Steve reassured me, "If anything, she'll tease us but that's it." He came over to kiss my forehead. What Steve was saying was true, it just felt kinda weird because Dawn and Robin were just down the hall when it happened, "Dawn probably had us sleep in here on purpose." He told me. I chuckled as it would be a Dawn thing to do,
"You always know what to say." I hugged him before I got dressed, "I'll meet you downstairs." I told him before I left the room.

When I had gone down the stairs, I could smell french toast, bacon and coffee. Robin was carrying a plate to the dining room table,
"Took you long enough." Dawn commented,
"Sorry that we're not early risers." I rolled my eyes before I took the coffee mug out of her hand,
"I'm just saying that I thought you guys would have been up before me." She shrugged as that was usually the case,
"It's not the first time you've been up before Steve and I." I pointed out as I could see Steve come down the stairs,
"Morning, Harrington." Robin smiled, "Coffee?" She asked as she held out the mug Dawn got for him,
"Seriously." He looked at her before taking the mug,
"It's just a mug, Harrington." Robin shrugged as I walked over to the table to grab a piece of bacon. The game plan for after breakfast was for Steve and I to stop at my house and then go to Steve's afterward. Dawn made sure to wash the mug for Steve to take home.

As we pulled into my driveway, I looked over to Steve.
"You can give the mug to your mom." I shrugged, "Just don't tell Dawn because it will break her heart." I kidded and I saw a smile grow on his face. Max was waiting outside on the front steps, probably for the rest of the party.
"What's the plan for today?" I asked Max as I walked up to her,
"Go to the movies and then go to Mike's or something." She shrugged, "What are you doing home? I thought you were spending the weekend at Dawn's?" Max looked between the two of us,
"I had to stop at home, forgot my swimsuit." I smirked before she moved so I could get past her. I quickly ran to my room to grab my swimsuit, and heard that the shower was on. My mom probably had plans to go out with Neil or something, I shouted a quick 'love you' before going outside to see the rest of the party.
"Hi Tyler!" Dustin smiled as he came over to give me a hug, "Can you please convince Steve that we should try doing a dungeon and dragons campaign again?" Dustin asked. I looked over to Steve as his arms were crossed with that 'no way' look. I pulled away and looked at him,
"I'll see what I can do." I smiled before winking at him. I had an idea of how Steve could be roped into another attempt at the game.
"No way, Ty." Steve shook his head,
"Well we do need to hang out with the kids again soon." I looked at him. I turned back to the kids,
"We have to go but I'm sure Steve and I can plan a day where we do something." I gave them a smile before going back into Steve's car, so we could head over to his house before Dawn, Jake and Robin got there.
