Fics like An Unconditional Odyssey

In the most fundamental way, Hawkins’ mothers were a lot like they had been in California, with plenty of time on their hands now that their children were in high school: bored and restless with their husbands and looking for an orgasm. Billy figured it was a small enough price to pay. That if he played his role and played it well, he’d be rewarded afterwards. That for a few brief moments, before and after, when they swooped in to kiss his cheek or offer him bus fare, Billy would be able to feel the ghostly imprint of what it felt like to be in the presence of a mother who cared. (Or: Billy is drowning on dry land and Steve, having watched Billy from the sidelines for as long as he has, realizes just how much Billy needs somebody to care).
