"BILLY" Max screamed. Then Max got impaled my the mind flayer along with Billy, and Dustin.
Then me. I didn't feel it. There was no blood and then i fell into a black void. Then i woke up.

What kind on fucking bad dream was that?

What the hell. I went back to sleep and didn't have a nightmare for the rest of the night.
*****
I woke up in Eddie's arms just like every other morning.

Except this morning when i woke up all i could see was Max floating.

I'm scared for her. Idk how she wasn't scared.

She has to be scared. She just wants to act tough.

What the fuck are we gonna do.

Then my nose started to bleed. I got up fast and ran to the bathroom. I wiped my nose and then i had a bad headache.

I started remembering the bad dream i had last night. I guess it was just me remembering Billy dying.

A lot of people that were there have trauma which made me think. One of us could always be next. We all have trauma.

Wait. Max had nightmares, i had a nightmare, she had nosebleeds, i have nosebleeds, she gets bad headaches, i'm having a bad headache.

It must be a coincidence.

I'm not next i'm just being stupid. Once my nose stopped bleeding I went back to Eddie and he was awake.

"Where'd you go?"

"I had a nosebleed"

"Oh what happened"

"Nothing it was just random"

"Ok well Good morning"

"Morning"

I kissed his cheek and got changed into new clothes.

Eddie got up and changed too.

I went into the bathroom and started brushing my teeth.

Eddie came in while i was in there and then i remembered. It's my dads birthday. May 28th.

"It's my dads birthday I'm probably gonna take Dustin to see his grave today"

"Don't start floating like Max"

"I won't" i said.

I used the walkie talkie and i said "Hey can i talk to either Steve or Robin or someone who can drive"

Steve answered by saying "I'm here what do you need"

"I want to take Dustin to see my dads grave, it's his birthday today"

"Ok well i'll bring Dustin to you but i'm gonna be in the car just in case something happens"

"Ok that's fine just come pick me up and bring Dustin"

"Ok i'm on the way"

I put the walkie talkie down and Eddie said "Let me know if anything happens ok?"

"Ok i will, I'll hang out with you till he gets here"
******
When Steve got here i went outside and got on the passenger seat while Dustin sat in the back.

He dropped us off and parked the car as he waited for us to come back. I made Dustin stay back so i could go to Dad alone.

When i got to the grave i started talking

Hi Dad it's your favorite child. I miss you so much i wish you were still here. I got a boyfriend and he's really good to me. You would love him. He loves guitar just like you and he likes me mostly. He has long brown curly hair and he wears rings. I've been through a lot recently and he has made me happy throughout all of it. Happy birthday dad. I miss you so much and i always will. I love you and i don't know if you can hear me. Dad just know that you'll always be my dad even if mom finds someone new.
I love you dad Happy birthday.
