Steve's pov
It's been about 3 days since Eddie and Amelia went to the cabin so me and Robin decided to go and visit them

As we walk up to the front door Robin looks at me "this place is giving me a bad vibe" I shrug "oh well" we knock and Amelia opens the door a few seconds later "hey guys" she hugs us and lets us in

"Where's Eddie?" Robin asks "outside smoking I think" I nod "how've you been?" I ask and she sighs

"Bored,scared,sad,worried. All the fun stuff" Amelia tells us "how's Eddie holding up?" I ask again "he's terrified, but he's not showing it because he feels like he needs to protect me and if he's 'weak' he can't" she frowns "I hate that he's in this now" I notice her eyes start to get glossy and so does Robin

"Amelia it's gonna be ok I promise" Robin says "that's what I was told last time then my brother died" at this point she started crying so we both went over and hugged her "I'm scared" I look over and see Eddie walk in from the back door and he looked concerned as fuck

He walks over and hugs Amelia "what's wrong sweetheart?" She just hugs him and doesn't respond

"We could stay the night if y'all want some company" I smile "yes yes!" Amelia says with excitement "tv?" Eddie asks and we all agree. We sit on the couch and turn on the tv

It's the news and it's talking about another 'murder' of some kid named Fred "he works with Jenny and Nancy for the school newspaper" Amelia says "I need to talk with Jenny" she says "is there any way y'all can go get her?" She asks and I nod "I'll go, it's only 7pm so she's probably awake. What her address?"

Jenny's pov
I'm pretty shaken up by this whole thing and now it's even worse. Chrissy and now Fred, what the fuck is wrong with this damn town.

I'm getting ready for bed when I hear a knock at my door "who is at my door 8:50 at night?" I groan as I walk to the front door. "Steve?" He nods "Um Amelia said she needs you and send me to come get you" I from "is she ok?" He shrugs

"She pretty upset but Eddie and Robin are with her right now, trying their best to comfort her. But she specifically asked for you" I nod "yeah just let me put on some shoes" I quickly put them on and walk outside "cute pajamas" He jokes and i turn a deep shade of pink

"Shut up" he shakes his head and keeps driving

"You've done this before right?" He looks at me "like been through all this shit before" I ask and he nods "manyyy times" "and you're still alive?" He laughs a bit "surprisingly" I look out the window, starting to fidget with my hands

He grabs one of my hands and looks at me core a second "it's gonna be ok" I smile a little "we just gotta be strong right?" I nod "yeah just gotta be strong" I repeat While looking at our hands that are intertwined. "Me and Robin are staying with Eddie and Amelia, if you wanna stay. Tomorrow we're going to meet up with Dustin and all them." I nod "yeah I'll stay"

He puts his focus back on the road but then decides to speak again "do you wanna talk about what happened today?" I sigh

"Yeah"

"Me,Nancy and Fred all decided to go to the trailer park to see if we could get a good story for the newspaper. We somehow got let in and we decided to talk to Wayne . Me and Nancy went over to him and Fred stayed back. Then next thing we know he's crumbled in the middle of the road" he squeezes my hand

"You're so strong, I'm so sorry all this is happening" his words are calming and made me feel safe

Soon we get to the cabin and I hurry inside, seeing my best friend crying while her head is in her boyfriends lap. He's playing with her hair and trying to calm her and then her legs were over robins lap.

"Jenny!" She cries and I immediately go over "I'm here I'm here" she sits up and hugs me tightly "you're ok! I was so fucking worried something happened to you, I love you I'm sorry I wasn't there for you" I start to cry as I hear my distressed best friend ramble

"Hey it's ok, I'm ok and so are you" I pull away and wipe her tears "I'm so scared" I shake my head

"You're the strongest person I know, you've done this before like a badass and you can do it again. But now you have me and Eddie and we will protect you no matter what" she smiles slightly "so will we" Robin adds motioning her hands between her and Steve "And everyone else princess you're gonna be ok"Eddie says to her sweetly

"I'm not worried about myself I'm worried about my frie- no my family" I smile "Don't, everyone is safe and ok" now I couldn't guarantee that forever but right now I'm just comforting her

"We're all gonna be ok I promise" Steve says "And we all have each other" I say as she hugs me again "we love you darling" Eddie says as he runs her back

"I love y'all too"
