It was a secret

Amelia's pov
After everyone told them everything Eddie looked terrified so I was holding his hand as comfort. Jenny wasn't as bothered because I already told her a summary of everything.

"So now we need a plan" I say and everyone agrees

"Well obviously their "suspect #1 is Eddie" Mike tells us "so he should probably hide out for a while" he says once again and Eddie groans "this is bullshit" he says "It's the best thing to do right now" hopper tells him

"Hop aren't you a cop, can't you do something?!" Jenny asks and he shakes his head "I'm not anymore, but I can try to talk to them" I shake my head "no matter what you say to them, even if you tell them the truth they wouldn't believe it. I mean who in their right mind would believe it?" I say

"She's right no one's gonna believe any of us" Nancy says "So we all just need to act normal and try to figure out what the hell is going on"  she says again "we also need a place for Eddie to stay" Dustin says

"I have a cabin far far far in the middle of the woods that pretty much no one knows about" hopper puts in "that could work" I say, looking at Eddie and he nods

"But Um will I be alone?" He asks nervously

I frown and look at everyone "I'll stay with Eddie in your cabin hop. They'll probably think I'm a suspect since I'm not gonna be at my trailer for a while"

"Why would you stay with Eddie?" Will asks curiously "because I think it's best" Jonathan rolls his eyes from the corner of the room "We will also need someone to deliver food like every week or so, I could go out but it'll be risky" they nod "yeah we will figure that out" Robin assures

"For now everyone just needs to relax and figure stuff out, come to the cabin if you have any information" I tells them as we all walk out of the house "stay safe guys!" I yell while me Eddie and hopper walk to hoppers car so he can take us to the cabin

"We will!" I few of them say back

Me and Eddie get in the back and hopper sighs

"Can't ever catch a break can ya kid?" I smile a little "seems like I can't" he laughs "it's a long drive so get comfortable" I look out the window and feel Eddie put his head on my shoulder

It's scary to have to hide because you saw one of your friends die from some hell monster and now the cops think you did it. It's all terrifying and I hate that Eddie and Jenny are now involved.

"So are y'all a thing?" Hopper asks me "Oh um well yeah.. we are and have been for a year" he nods "why haven't I been told this information" I shrug "Never came up"

"I feel like it should've" he jokes "whatever"

Hopper is like a father to me, when I first moved here he was always nice and then we got closer over time. I'm also close with eleven but we just don't hang out that much.

"You think we will be ok?" He sighs "I hope"

Eddie puts his head in my lap and it makes my heart gush, I quickly realize he wants me to play with his hair. So I do

"How are you and Mrs.Joyce" I smile and he rolls his eyes "I don't think right now is the time to date" he shrugs "that's a load of bull, don't let no upside down bitch get in the way" he just laughs "Just go to sleep like your boyfriend back there" Eddie groans "I'm not asleep"

"Well you're being quiet so maybe teach amelia" Eddie laughs and I smack his head "ow" he yelps "We're here" hop announces

We get out of the car and I look at the small cabin in front of us "this is... homey?" My boyfriend says as we walk inside "it'll do, would you rather be in jail for a murder you didn't do?" Hopper asks "nope"

"There's food that should last for a week or two, and here is a walkie-talkie Dustin told me to give you guys" he hands me it and smiles "now don't get into any trouble" he says "you too" I say back

"Someone will come by tomorrow, I'm not sure who but you guys will get weekly visits." I nod and frown a bit

I hug him before he leaves "stay safe kid" he whispers "I will"

"Alright well bye you guys" he walks out and I look at Eddie "welp, home sweet home" he flops onto the couch

Eddie is my favorite person ever, end of story

Love y'all
