LENNON was losing her shit. One day she was in California, learning how to hunt with her father. He wanted to impress his friends, who always brought their sons along. And she wanted to make them see that girls could hunt too, and even be better than them. She was partying with her friends. She was fighting with her mother. Fighting with Billy. Doing teenage stuff... And then, one day she was at her new friend's house. Trying to save his possessed brother and possibly, the world, from a creature from another dimension. Also, she was seeing Mike and Eleven, a girl with superpowers, hugging. The girl had blood dripping down her nose, after using her powers. Dustin and Lucas had explained to the Mayfield sisters it happened after she used her powers.
"I never gave up on you. I called you every night. Every night for-" Mike told Eleven, who finished his sentence for him.
"353 days." Lennon's eyes widened at the number. How could someone be as whipped as that kid was to do that? "I heard."
"Why didn't you tell me you were there? That you were okay?" Mike wondered.
"Because I wouldn't let her." Hopper spoke up, walking towards the girl "The hell is this? Where you been?"
"Where have you been?" He didn't answer. Instead, he gave her a hug. Lennon though back to what he said to her, about being in that mess because of the people he loved. Eleven seemed to be one of those people.
"You've been hiding her." Mike stated, shocking everyone "You've been hiding her this whole time!" He hit Hopper's arm, causing the adult to grab his hand and stop him.
"Hey! Let's talk. Alone." He took him to another room, leaving the air in the room awkward.
Lennon pursed her lips together, grabbing a tissue from her leather jacket and passing it to Eleven. She glanced up at her confused "You have blood under your nose." She pointed at her own nose.
El took one glance at the tissue before nodding at Lennon "Thank you." She cleaned her nose while the redhead went back to her sister. Eleven watched her kissing Max's head. And the way she wrapped her arms around her. Lennon loved Max more than anything, and she didn't need much time to learn that.
Lucas and Dustin quickly pulled her in for a hug, making close her eyes. She wanted to enjoy the moment, not to think about other's people happiness "We missed you." Lucas told her.
"I missed you, too." She replied.
"We talked about you pretty much every day." They pulled away.
Eleven went to touch Dustin's mouth, confusing him "Teeth."
"What?"
"You have teeth."
Lucas and him looked at each other, laughing "Oh. You like these pearls?" Dustin purred, and Lucas shook his head at him.
"Eleven?" Max approached her, Lennon watching them carefully "Hey. Um, I'm Max." She held her hand out for her to shake "I've heard a lot about you." Eleven just walked past her, going to hug Joyce and ignoring her completely.
