Confused [Stranger Things]

Chapter 2

*Authors Note; The F Slur is in this chapter so be warned.

You stare at your locker with anger, what had you done to deserve this? Was it because you were mean to Steve? Sighing you grab your textbooks and slam your locker shut, your eyes landing on your biggest annoyance that just happens to be the locker right next to yours. The new kid was standing there flirting with a bunch of the dumb girls that seemed to flock around him. You catch the eye of the new kid and he smirks at you. Rolling your eyes you turn onto your heels and start walking to your first class, homeroom. There is no way this can get worse for you.

Sitting at your desk you lay with your head on top of your arms, having your eyes shut for the few seconds of silence you'll get before the other, louder, students arrive. Your first class of the day was homeroom, and luckily for you, everyone mostly ignores you. Hearing the bell ring signaling class staring you sit up and let your eyes lazily roam around the room to see all the boring faces your use to seeing. Hearing the classroom door creak open, you turn your attention to the front of the room, a small frown etching its way onto your face as you watch the new kid walk in.

"Sorry I'm late miss, got lost" The new kid says to the teacher, flashing her a big smile that just screams 'I'm a fuck boy'. Rolling your eyes you let yourself sink into the chair slightly. You can't hear what the teacher is saying but you watch at the new kid nods at what she was saying and his eyes dart towards your direction.

"Alright class" The teacher starts, clasping her hands in front of her waist. "Today we have a new student, His name is Billy Hargrove and he's a senior" She says, letting her eyes roam the class before making eye contact with you. "Ah! We have an empty seat right next to y/n, why don't you sit there Billy?" The teacher says smiling as she turns towards Billy. You see Billy glance around the room again, obviously not knowing who that is and out of pity you raise your hand and gesture to the empty seat next to you. The empty seat that use to be Barb's. Billy grins and starts walking towards you, sitting down next to you and dropping his bag on to the ground next to him. You roll your eyes and look towards the front of the room again, watching the surprised look on his face and he realized you ignored him. Up close you can now see he is probably 4 or 5 inches taller then you and is quite handsome. But still scary no matter how much charm he showed. Letting yourself zone out for the rest of the class, almost falling asleep, you slightly jump at the sound of the bell. Standing up and grabbing your backpack you scoff quietly as some of the popular girls com up and surround Billy, what whores. You catch Billy's eye and he opens his mouth as if to say something to you but another girl from your class nudges you out of the way to take your spot. Shaking your head you turn towards the door and leaves. As if he would want to actually talk to you when there are so many females surrounding him.

Later after all of your classes have ended your standing at your locker, thankfully you haven't ran into Billy again, shoving your school books into the box and grabbing your bag, you slam your locker and turn to your left, jumping at the sudden appearance of your sister, Nancy.

"Lets go" Nancy says, grabbing your arm as she drags you along behind her. You make a noise of confusion. "Go where?" You ask, speeding up your pace so you are no longer being dragged and instead walking next to Nancy. Letting go of your arm Nancy looks at you with bewilderment. "The gym dumbass" You take a second to figure out why the gym. "Oh" you mumble. Steve is your ride home and they have basketball practice after school every now and then.

Reaching the gym, you and Nancy quietly enter and strand at the end of the bleachers near the door, you make a noise of embarrassment as your eyes land on a shirtless Billy. You see Nancy raise an eyebrow at you and you fake a cough, giving her a small smile you mumble "frog in my throat"

Turning your attention back to the game you watch as Billy and Steve seem to be having a 'whose dick is bigger"' competition. "What is he doing?" You hear Nancy ask you and you tilt your head towards her. "Who?" You ask confused, you didn't know anything about basketball but whatever they were doing seemed fine. "That new kid" She replies "Why is he being so harsh? This is supposed to be practice"

You Glance at Nancy and then back to the boys. "What are you talking about, it seems fine?" You ask and then latterly 5 seconds later Billy slams into Steve, knocking him to the ground. "Oh" You mumble confused, shrugging you shoulder's. "This seems pretty gay to me not gonna lie" You say, a small grin appearing on your face as you turn towards Nancy. "Careful Nance, the new kid might steal 'Steve the Hair' from you"

Nancy rolls her eyes, smacking your arm "Shut up" she says, and you cant tell if you've made her mad or not but before you could apologize a whistle is blown signifying the game was over. Walking towards the locker rooms with the rest of the players you call out to Steve. "Aye Stevie boy give me your car keys"

You see Steve roll his eyes as he stops and turns towards you, waiting for you to catch up. "They're in my locker let me grab them for you" Steve says as he turns back and starts walking into the locker room again. Standing near the exit of the locker room you wait for Steve to get back and jump when you feel a sudden hand grab your shoulder.

"We don't allow Fags in here" You hear a voice from behind you say and you roll your eyes. "Tommy" You reply, instantly recognizing the voice and you feel the grip on your shoulder tighten.

"Haven't I told you before to get lost" Tommy asks and you sigh, getting ready to make a dumb remark when suddenly Steve is standing in front of you holding the keys. You grin, saved by the knight in shining armor. "Fuck off Tommy" Steve say's, taking a step forward and you fell the hand let go. Tommy scoff's "Whatever" He says as he walks past you, shoulder checking you on the way, and goes into the locker room. Sighing, Steve hold his car key's towards you, "I'll be right out" he say's and turns to go into the locker room. You snort as you clutch the keys in your hand and leave the locker room, heading towards the exit of the gym where Nancy was standing. Grinning you hold the keys up and jingle them.

Sitting in the car waiting for Steve come out you glance at Nancy and clear your throat. "Uh Nance?" You say, it coming out more as a question then you meant it to be. You wait until you get her attention before you continue. "Sorry if I uh upset you earlier" You say, a small frown appearing on your face. Nancy shakes her head and gives you a tight lipped smile, she's about to say something when she's interrupted by Steve getting into the driver seat, holding an orange piece of paper.

You start to say something before Nancy asks about the paper in Steve's hand and he grins. "Well there's a party tomorrow night and I thought we could go, to feel a little more normal again." You look from Nancy to Steve and back to Nancy, they were talking about this last night but it wasn't really any of your business so you decided not to take part as they started to argue, Steve wanting to go and Nancy wanting to stay home. You're brought back into the conversation when Nancy grins and say's "I'll only go if Y/n goes." She compromised, knowing you didn't care for parties and usually avoided them. Steve turned to you and putting his hands together as if praying. "Y/n please go, I'll do anything" He begs while shaking his hands up and down. You grin and raise your eyebrow. "20 dollars and you have to babysit Nance when she gets drunk" you say, and immediately Steve says "Deal" and you shake hands as if to confirm it. You hear Nancy make an exasperated sigh as she shakes her head "You're a traitor" She mumbles, crossing her arms across her chest as Steve starts the car, driving towards the Wheelers house to drop us off.
