Just like a dream

6

I threw the die and we all breathe heavily because this might change the all game.

It goes on a 6 and we all don't immediately realize that we won.

I hand my hand to Eddie and say :
"- That'll be all for me, master,
- I never doubt you could it, he gently respond me

I give him a smile and Dustin hug me saying :

"- You're clearly the best, we've been trying to finish this for a week and you did it in one night
- That was thanks to both of you, I say adding mike to the hug

I see Eddie looking at us and I laugh to him saying :

"- Wanna join the collective hug for our victory of tonigh ?
- I mean why not, he says shrugging

And as we're all hugging, Nancy open the door and look at us :

"- Does this hug means the game is over because sorry to bring that up, but tomorrow is a school day and Mike you better go to sleep or you're gonna wake up late and I'm not waiting for you
- Yeah it's getting kinda late, I'm gonna head home too, does anyone need a drive ? I ask
- I got my bike so I'm fine
- Okay but be careful Dustin, isn't how the little Byers disappeared?

Suddenly, no one talks and the atmosphere is getting kinda weird

Shit I messed up

"- So sorry, I shouldn't have bring that up especially when I don't know what happen. So Eddie do you want a ride ?
- Euh, if that's okay to you I would say yes but I'm sure it's not on your way
- Don't worry I don't mind driving and I want to make sure you're home safe
- Okay as you want but I live in the Forest hills trailer park
- Really ?
- Yeah why would I lie
- Omg you're so funny, no because I actually leave near this
- Okay, really ?
- Yeah I'm not a liar either but I'm poor and to proud to ask for money
- At least you got someone you could ask to
- I wouldn't say that it's cool when they knows they can fucking ruin you life
- Okay, the two, interrupt Nancy, stop acting like lovers or something like that and maybe start considering leaving
- We are not acting like that, I say innocently
- Yes you are, respond Mike and Dustin together
- No we are not, they're just dreaming  don't worry Nina, tells Eddie
- Yeah they're just fantasizing about their own live life, we should get out of here before they start thinking we're like them
- Yeah let's do that

I give a hug to both mike and Dustin and then remember the homework I gave them for tomorrow

"- Okay guys, I just remembered I'm a teacher and that I gave you homework but I'll pass on it for all because it's my fault I took y'all the evening. But his it is the first and last time I do that
- God, stop thinking about work for 2 minutes, it's not like we would have done them, respond Dustin
- Oh believe me you're gonna them, I say shoving his arm

Then I go to see Nancy, who's still at the door and yawn.

"- Sorry to take you so long
- It's fine, you all spent a great evening and that's all that matter, I'm glad you came back in town
- Me too, you don't know how much. What about we go take a coffee tomorrow. Anytime, I only have one class at 11.
- Sounds good we could even eat lunch together
- Of course, if you have the time
Then I'll go pick you up at 12:30 and we spent the afternoon together
- Perfect, see you tomorrow

And I gave her a hug

"- Eddie it's now or never, I'm leaving
- Not ready for never, I'm here

We head out the house and both got into my car.
