Mention of sex, but no actual smut (sorry guys)

"Hey- Eddie. Eddie. Eddieeeee..." Mira said, sighing when he was indeed sound asleep, and definitely was not gonna wake up for a while.

There's not really much to do honestly, so they mostly just talked, slept, maybe they also did some *cough* other adult things as well... ANYWAYS-

She sighed and decided to at least clean up some things. If they were staying at this guys house.. might as well just make everything clean at least.

She went into the living Room and organized everything Eddie had taken out, mostly food in his cabinets and stuff, and putting the pillows back where they originally were on his couch.

She plopped back down on the couch and sighed, and grabbing the envelope that she had read the other day, or yesterday, not like she remembered.

She went through all the photos again, she's pretty much on the depression stage at this point.

She feels she moved on too quickly, but over the years she's learned to deal with death pretty quickly.

First it was her aunt, who was more like a mom than her actual mom, then it was billy, her friend, then it was Hopper, and now Dj.

They all hurt her, but she learned to accept death quickly, she wasn't really affected by it anymore and knew that everyone would want her to move on from them.

Besides, Dj wanted her to move on, to live a normal life, but they didn't want her to forget about them at the same time.

And Mira would never.

Her thoughts were interrupted by Eddie kissing her head from behind.

"Well, look who finally woke up."

"Sorry. I'm just really tired, not much to do here is there?" He laughed.

"Yeah, you got that right. We've been doing absolutely nothing but sleeping, watching shitty movies, and fucking." She said, leaning her head back to look up at him.

"And I would have it no other way." He grinned, kissing her forehead this time and rummaging through the cabinets in the kitchen.

"I wouldn't either munson."

"I just had a very interesting conversation with Professor Brantley. Perhaps we should discuss in my office while we wait for the police." Dr. hatch said to Robin and Nancy.

Well, they were fucked.

Max sat at Billy's grave, staring at it.

She took out her note, skimming through it and then reading it.

"Dear billy, I don't know if you can even hear this. Two years ago I would've said that's ridiculous that's impossible but that was before I found out about alternate dimensions and monsters, I'm just going to stop assuming I know anything. So much has happened since you left. Your dad was- a total mess. He and my mom started getting into fights. Bad fights. I don't think he could stand being here without you. So he left. And he didn't leave mom much. She's taken an extra job, and we moved to that lovely trailer park off Kerley. Mira is... doing okay I think, her other friend died recently. The one that you didn't like, Dj. I just never understood why- why she kept trying with you- she- she never gave up no matter what, even in your last moments. She truly believed you could change. Honestly, I think she's at peace knowing you died changing, and that you weren't as cold as everyone thought you were. Basically, since you left, everything's been... a total disaster. And the worst part is, I can't tell anyone why you're gone. I can't tell them you saved El's life. That you saved my life. That you saved your friends (Mira) life. I play that moment back in my head all the time. And sometimes I imagine myself running to you, pulling you away.."
