(I listened to 'Always' by Bon Jovi while writing this bit)

"What did you say?" Y/n asks Eddie, turning around and looking at him confused, as they both walk into the trailer.

"Nothing, except for the fact that was insane!" He shouts looking at the two excited, as they catch their breath, his face lighting up with happiness.

"Dude! Most metal ever!" Dustin shouts.

"Oh my god!!" Eddie shouts, moving his hands so they hold Dustin and Y/n while they jump around excited, partially celebrating the small victory, forgetting for a second the situation they are all in.

"You have to play that with the band at prom!" He shouts at him excited, thinking about the band's reaction to Eddie's solo.

"First I need to graduate, which seems very unlikely given the fact I'm the number one suspect for a murder," He says chuckling as they stop jumping, his smile slightly fading as he remembers the trouble he's in.

"We'll deal with that once we're out of here don't worry, your name will be cleared, trust me," Y/n says holding Eddie's hands with a reassuring smile.

"With a smile like that, how can I not believe you," He says softly smiling back at him, gazing at his eyes, moving his hand to hold his cheek.

"Alright lover boy let's go, we've got some bats to fight," He says moving his hand on top of his and moving it down as he grabs his shield and takes out his machete.

"You guys ready?" Dustin asks them, grabbing his spear and shield.

"Let's make them pay"

~~~

"How many do you think there are?" Eddie asks, looking around worried, holding his spear close, as he thinks back to the colony of bats that tried to attack them a couple of minutes ago, questioning how likely they are all to make it out alive.

"How are we supposed to know?" Dustin asks him, looking at him as if he just asked the most stupid question in the world.

"I don't know, you could estimate" Eddie explains.

"Well, I'd say that it's something in between fifty and a hundred, maybe more" Eddie's and Y/n's eyes widen as they process what Dustin just told them. They could barely put up a fight to eight bats back when they first got stuck in the upside down, how are they supposed to fight six times more bats than they did last time?

"Could there be less?" Y/n asks panicking at the huge number of bats.

"Once again I have no idea how many there are, it could be less, it could be more, I'm a genius, not a wizard," Dustin says rolling his eyes, losing his patience.

"Well you never shut up so I thought you were a know it all" Eddie tells him sarcastically.

"Very funny asshole," Dustin says pushing Eddie.

"Can you two just be quiet, we need to focus-" Y/n begins saying before being interrupted by the bats becoming more aggressive.

"Oh shit, they can't break the walls right?" Dustin asks, panicking at the rising slamming against the walls, the shrieking from the bats getting louder and louder by the second.
