Steve was sitting on his knees, looking up at Billy with desire and uncertainty. "What are we?" Steve asked finally, Billy grinned as he looked down at him.

"What do you want to be sugar?"

"I-."

"Do you want to be mine?" He asked, it was soft but dangerous. Steve wondered if he accepted his offer of a relationship that he was shaking hands with a devil. Yet he wanted it.

"Yes.... But I want to have.. I want to give consent for things."

"I can handle that, do you want me to still drug you?"

"Yes." Steve grumbled after a moment of silence. His face was as red as a tomato. "I do... and I-.. Well I want.. I want to be yours, not just a toy."

"Oh darling, you are far more than a toy to me." Billy promised as he pulled him onto his feet, he pulled Steve into a hug. At first Steve was frozen in his arms, Billy grinned as he leaned to the side softly, holding Steve close. He swiped his switchblade off the table. Steve yelped as he was turned with speed, the blade was held against his throat. "If anyone tries to hurt you, they will have to answer to me."

Steve was breathing heavily, the feeling of the cool blade against his throat was making him crazy, his cock twitched at the feeling. Billy dropped the blade back on the table. "Now princess," Billy picked him up and swiftly sat on the bed, pulling him onto his lap. "With the.. Climate of our world... we will have to keep this on the downlow."

"Yeh.. yeh..." Steve mumbled. "I get it."

"Good I'm glad you do... I don't want you to think I hate you though, you're my everything now but I don't want people to figure it out. If they do, we could be in danger."

Steve nodded, he leaned his head against Billy's shoulder, Billy took a deep breath. He was so fucking cute. "I have some things I need to take care of today okay? Aren't you babysitting today?"

"Oh fuck yeah I am.. I'm babysitting like four of them taking them to the arcade. Long as that one kid who keeps fucking with Dustin doesn't show up."

Billy chuckled a bit. "You're a protective mommy aren't you?"

Steve nodded, his cheeks growing hot at the statement. "Yeah.. I guess you could say that." The kids called him mom for the most part, at first he knew it was a joke, something they did when he was nagging. Now it seemed like their nickname for him. Billy calling him mommy felt good though, in a way. He liked it.

"Well, you go have fun with the kids, mommy. I've got some things to take care of, see you then okay?" Steve only nodded, Billy stood and plopped him on the bed with little effort. He tipped his chin up and kissed him roughly. "I'll see you later okay? Maybe you'll know it's coming, maybe you won't."

Steve felt a shutter run down his spine.

He watched Billy pull his clothes on, he noticed a bit of red on the hem of his T-shirt but assumed it was from the party last night, wine or a jello shot that got spilled. Billy waved to him as he slipped out and ran down the stairs to his car.

Steve got himself dressed, the taste of cum still on his tongue. He hummed to himself as he thought about everything that had happened in the last hour. He felt himself growing hard at being called princess, having his ass referred to as Billy's pussy. He wanted to be drugged again, used for Billy's pleasure.

He tossed water in his face and looked at himself in the mirror. "You're a sick fuck." He said to himself in the mirror. His reflection stared back, hungry for more. He ran down the stairs and grabbed his keys. He would need to hurry and pick up each kid from their house and then head to the arcade for their day of fun.

He enjoyed babysitting but at their age he felt it was more a formality than actually babysitting, he knew their parents trusted him to keep them out of trouble. So the pool or arcade was usually their place to hang out. He also knew they liked DnD so they had a set at his house or he watched them at the Wheeler's, Joyce always offered her place as well but he hated intruding.

The arcade was packed, Steve followed the kids about trying to keep all of them under watch. He wanted to let them have their fun and not be hovered over but Steve also knew the four boys were easy pickings for bullies and strangers in general. He kept his eyes on them from the coin machine. They tended to stay together like a little pack, all four came up to him for the need of coins and to show off their current tickets.

Steve was stooped over them, trying to keep them close so he could hear. He was slightly yelling, to ensure they could hear him over the game machines and other people. Eddie and the corroded coffin boys were there as well, Eddie looked up spotting Steve talking to a group of kids, his eyes darkened at the scene. Steve yelling at his DnD kids. Eddie jumped off his chair, the swivel seat creaking as he left it. He was storming over, about to offer the kids a helping hand and to yell when he heard Dustin.

"We know mom, we won't leave one anothers side."

Eddie stopped, interested in the current conversation now for different reasons. He spotted Steve shiver at the word mom. He could tell by the giggles the kids gave he they thought he was annoyed, but Eddie was almost sure it was something else.

"Thank you, I'm going to go order a pizza for us to be ready when you are all done okay?"

"Okay mom." Will said, his voice was softer and sweeter than the others. He still hadn't hit full puberty yet. Steve smiled, his cheeks a bit pink, he shivered again and Eddie was convinced there was something more to him being called mom by the kids.

"I will be right back okay?" Steve remarked. He ran a hand through his hair, clearly trying to calm himself down.

The four boys waved him off already turned as they yelled back. "Alright mom, don't forget we like pepperoni."

Steve bit his lip clearly holding something back.

Eddie stepped out of the way of another patron coming into full view. Steve looked up and saw him. He let out a sigh of what seemed like relief. "Hey Munson, would you mind keeping an eye on those four. I gotta get a pizza before I take them home."

"Why are you trusting me with them?" Eddie asked, his arms crossed and his brow cocked.

"They said you play DnD with them, they sit with you at lunch. It's not like I don't know that, thanks by the way."

"I never said I would watch them," Eddie said, looking him over carefully. He spotted a bit of a bite mark poking out from behind his jacket. Eddie cocked his head curious about it but he didn't pry. Maybe Billy didn't use the pill on him after all, maybe he had just been really drunk.

Did he swing that way?

"You haven't said you wouldn't, I promise I'll be right back. I just gotta run down the street and grab a pizza. They eat like they are grown."

Eddie tried to hide his smile, but fuck the way Steve was acting like he was their mother was something new. He seemed to blush, and shudder, when he was called mom. Steve waved and raced out, the kids now Eddie's responsibility for a few moments.

Eddie could handle that, he was curious about Steve Harrington, a lot more curious than he had been before last night.

Returning to the arcade Steve waved to Eddie in thanks as he called for the kids. They didn't even really realize Eddie had been 'watching' them for Steve or that he had even been there. They only noticed him as they were leaving, Eddie grinned and waved goodbye as well. Steve was something else, he had always been a bit of a fascination, something to watch and think about. Now he was a bit more.

Steve piled the kids in his car, handing Lucas the box of pizza in the front seat. "My house for pizza and a movie then I've got to drop you all off. I've got to go to my tutors tonight. Math is not going well."

"We could easily help you with that." Dustin said with a grin. Steve rolled his eyes.

"And what, face social suicide Dusty? I mean yeah you guys are smart but can you imagine what people would say if they knew I was being tutored by you four? They'd think I was stupid."

The kids giggled, but they knew what he meant. All of them had dealt with bullies enough to know that being seen as stupid or weird was something that could make or break them. Steve drove towards his place, he looked over Dustin from his rearview and realized he looked a bit sad. As they pulled into his place he sent the kids in while he grabbed the pizza. "Dustin, will you help me?" Dustin waited to do whatever Steve asked of him. The older teen handed Dusitn the box of pizza and cocked his head. "What's going on? You look upset."

"That guy, who used to make fun of me for my teeth, started up again. Not just on my teeth now but on like my appearance and just everything in general. Started being an ass..."

"I'll take care of it, good thing we have the same gym class."

"I don't want you getting hurt or in trouble."

"Don't worry I won't. I will just talk to him. Make sure he knows he can't mess with you."

Dustin smiled at him, thankful that Steve had always been there for them. They were older now, officially in high school, but it still felt like he was their older brother or their mother. "Thanks, Mom."

Steve grinned. He would do anything for his kids.
