Making Plans

~Will~

Looking at Max's wounds gave me many unwanted memories. She looked at me, clearly disgusted with what was on her. "Will, what does this mean?" She asked. When I didn't reply, she asked again, rising to a shout. "I don't know!" I shouted. "Well.. How do- What do we do now?" She asked. I shook my head, not knowing what to do. It can't be back. Right? Max stood up, wincing in pain. She started pacing the room, clearly in pain. "It's probably, fake. Right?" She asked. "I doubt it. The black vein things are still there, aren't they?" I asked, getting a bit frustrated. "Should we tell the others?" "No!" I shouted. She looked at me in surprise. "I didn't mean it like that." I said, sighing. "I just don't want to worry them unless it's a big deal." 

She shrugged before continuing to pace around the room. "What if.. we look for it?" "Yeah how are we going to do that, Max?" I replied. She shrugged. "Maybe.." I started saying, before stopping. "Nevermind, It's dumb." She stopped, turning to me. "Will, anything you have, Tell me. I could be the new host..or die." She said, getting quieter. I hesitated before at last talking. "What if we break into the lab?" I asked. "We're in the lab already." She replied. "We do it at night, less people. We check if the gate is open." I said. "And if it is?" She asked. I said the thing we were probably both thinking.

"Then we're screwed."

When Will and Max came back to the room, they seemed different. Lucas and Dustin had already left, probably to go make out or something. Something had clearly happened between them but I didn't bother to try ask about it.  Max seemed paler as she grabbed her clothes on the table. "Is everything okay?" I asked. She shared a look with Will before nodding. They were definitely hiding something from me. I sighed, realising that she wouldn't tell me anyways. Ever since Billy died, she had a tendency to push the people she cares about away. I wished I could help her but she cared about Billy a lot. Even if he was a bad person, he didn't deserve to die. I had gotten through to him at the end... I shook my head, not wanting to think about him right now.

"So are you going home?" I asked Max. She nodded again. She seemed unwell but she'd probably try hide that too if I asked. "Can I come along? We can have a girl's night." I said, smiling. "Uh.." Max said before Will finished it for her. "We have a school project to do together. So no girl's night. Sorry girlo." He said, smiling. What the hell? He's never called me 'girlo' before. Something is definitely up with them. I'll find out later. "Well okay! Guess, I'll get going now." I say as normally as I can. I put on a fake smile before walking out.

I watch El walk out, leaving us three in the room alone. "I should go too." I say, getting up. I avoid eye contact with Will. The dream I had was weird. It's just a friendly thing, obviously.. As I walk  out I see Max and Will talking in hushed whispers. Will seems to be pale and looks a bit scared. I wonder what's up with them. I shrugged, leaving the lab. I looked over my shoulder, getting one last look at the lab. When I turn around, two girls walking, crash into me. I fell to the ground, sighing. "Oh my god, I'm so sorry!" One of the girls says, looking down at me. I look up at them both. I would be blind if I didn't admit they were both really pretty. One of the girls is really short. She's pretty pale with long dirty blonde hair and blue eyes. She looks like a model or something. 

The other one has dark skin and long black hair with flowers in her hair that top it all off. She's a lot taller than the blonde one. She's really beautiful but is hiding behind the blonde one. She's probably very shy from the looks of it. The blonde one holds her hand out to help me up. I get up, clearly avoiding her hand. "Just watch where you're going." I say, frustrated. I look at them more closely, noticing I only recognise the one with black hair. I see her talking to Max sometimes. I assume they're friends or something. I turn to the blonde one who I don't recognise at all. She must be new to Hawkins. Why she'd want to move here is not my problem. "What's your name?" I ask them both. "I'm Erin. This is Gabby." The blonde one, Erin says. "We're here to see Max, do y'know her?" She says. She's the only one talking as the other one, Gabby, stands there. "Uh yeah, I'm her.." I stop to think. I wouldn't say we were friends since we constantly fight eachother but we're not exactly enemies. "I know her." I say at last. "She's in room 4 on the third floor." Gabby nods in a thank you. 

"Why'd you wanna know?" I say raising a brow. "Well I'm her friend and Gabby is her girl-" She tries to say before Gabby shoves her, causing her to stop talking. "We're both her friends." Gabby says quietly. I look at them confused. "It's ah..nothing." Erin says, starting to walk off with Gabby. "Well okay- See you!" I call out, waving at them. "Bye!" Erin calls out before I hear her whisper to Gabby. "Aren't you dating her?" "Yeah but she doesn't want her friends to know just yet. She's not ready to come out." She whispers back. I stopped in my tracks, my eyes widening. Max is gay? And Gabby is dating her? That's.. weird. And disgusting. I shake my head, taking in a deep breath. Will probably corrupted her. Now they're both gay freaks... It's not my secret to tell though. I sigh, walking back to my bike.
