Mike, Lucas, and Dustin come down the stairs. mike is holding a tray of food and dustin is holding the other.

" no adults. just us and some meatloaf." while they were having dinner you and el went back downstairs and into the basement.

dustin and lucas were a bit wary but they were okay. if you wanted to hurt them you would've done it by now.

he stands in front of them and smiles a little. watching his every move the two of you just stare at them. you had to check on will soon, he could be hurt and you need to know if he is or not. 

you didn't want dustin finding out you have superpowers but it was too late. el and you finally figured out what a friend is.

" friend?"

" yeah. friend. will?" lucas explains seeing your confused faces. 

" what is 'friend'?" el asks.

" are they serious?" lucas asks turning to dustin, dustin just shrugs.

" um- a friend is-"

" someone that you'd do anything for." mike interrupts.

" you lend them cool stuff, like that comic you liked ' n/n' " dustin smiles.

" and they never break a promise." mike says.

" espically with their spit." lucas adds.

" spit?" you ask confused and a little grossed out.

" a spit swear means..." he spits in his hand " you never break your word." he takes dustins hand and shakes it.

" it's a bond."

you laugh at dustin grossed out expression while el just stares at them taking in the new information.

" that's super important because friends tell each other things. things that parents don't know." he looks at you then el.

you squint your eyes at mike. " what if a friend tells?"

" what do you mean?" dustin asks, sitting down in front of you. this might be where your trying to tell them something- from your past.

looking down your eyes grow glossy, it happened in the lab.

you thought you were friends with 005 but she told on you, told lie's.

looking down below you seeing the hurt five. she was crying. you were playing around and laughing when five hit you. thinking it was on accident you brushed it off but she hit you again but much harder and with much more hate.

you fell to the ground and held your cheek from the stinging pain.

" i don't know why papa likes you more. your a brat and stupid. your weaker than me and yet he picks you. why? i want to know why!" she glares at you picking you up off the ground choking you.
