Chapter 2: The Weirdo On Maple Street
This is all your fault Y/N.
You did this.
You're crazy.
Your eyes fluttered open as the sound of your alarm woke you. You lay there staring at the ceiling for a few minutes before shutting off the alarm and making your way out of bed. You were so used to those dreams now that it didn't phase you as much as it used to. No point living in the past anymore. At least that one wasn't as bad as the rest.
After cleaning up last night's dishes, you packed your bag and made your way to next door; you had promised Nancy you'd have breakfast with her. She knew you didn't have much food in the house anyway but she also wanted to make sure you weren't mad at her for Steve's intrusion. If anything, you were just mad at Steve. Man, did you hate Steve.
Mike opened the front door, smiling at you, and led you to the dining room before rushing to the kitchen. Karen had already made you a plate of waffles and you smiled graciously at her as you took your place next to Nancy.
"Y/N, how did you sleep?" Karen asked, handing Nancy her plate. Karen was more of a mother to you than your own and you felt so lucky.
"Okay." You responded, passing the syrup around the table.
"You need to tell me about that boy today, I am dying to know." Nancy whispered, waggling her eyebrows and making you chuckle.
"What boy?" Mike asked as he sat on the opposite side to you, his mouth already filled with waffle as he attempted to finish his breakfast quickly. Where did he need to be so early?
"Slow down, Mike. Thats disgusting." Nancy noted at her brother shovelling food into his mouth, barely leaving time to chew. Their constant bickering was normal in this house. It made you miss your sister even more.
"You do a lot of studying last night?" Mike asked, sarcasm dripping from his voice. He knew. Of course he knew.
"Yeah, actually, I did." Nancy replied, narrowing her eyes at him. You took a bite of your waffle, already amused at the conversation.
"What was your test on, again?" Mike leaned in, "Human anatomy?"
You choked on your food, quickly gulping down the water in front of you as Nancy kicks Mike's chair.
"Hey, whats going on?" Karen asked. Oh, if she only knew.
"Nothing." The three of you chorused, finishing your food and leaving before anyone asked any more questions.
As you and Nancy left, you saw Mike head towards the Wheeler basement. Curiosity filled your mind but you decided to leave him be. It cant be easy knowing that one of his best friends might never come back.
As you entered school grounds, Barb joined you both and you all walked side by side into the building. Nancy, being her usual self, was still freaking out about the chemistry test despite the fact that she gets straight A's without even trying. You, on the other hand, don't. But you do well for yourself, still getting an A in certain subjects, maybe a B in others. You were smart, but Nancy was smarter.
"When alpha particles go through gold foil, they become?" Barb quizzed, waiting for either of us to answer.
"Unoccupied space." You and Nancy both said, high-fiving eachother with a smirk. At least you learnt something last night.
Barb flips to the next card, leaning on your locker.
"A molecule then can-" Barb started before the cards were snatched out of her hands and into the palms of Steve Harrington. Could he not interrupt at least one study moment?
