Hawkins... A new town for y/n. You needed to get away from everything, and here, in Hawkins, you will have a fresh start. New people will come into your life, and you want to be the best version of yourself. The best part of it all? No one knows you...
Your eyes shoot up at the guy standing in front of you, you just give him an awkward smile, almost wanting to punch yourself because you didn't manage to even act normal in this situation. "Oh.. Uhm...hi! No need to apologise, I was just in my own thoughts." You let this breathy giggle, looking down at the guys shirt.. it was the same from before. The Hellfire club.
"I'm Dustin! You see my shirt? Yeah, I'm a part of hellfire, cool right!?" The guy smiles widely at you, pinching his shirt and basically showing it off to you. "Yeah I can tell, what is it tho?" You ask, kind of nervously, scared it should be something you should know. And your fear becomes reality as he lets out a dramatic gasp, almost falling down on the bench, sitting down next to you. «YOU DON'T KNOW HELLFIRE?" He says quite loudly, making you look around to see if anyone noticed.. luckily no one turned their heads towards you. You sigh. "No I-I'm sorry, I'm new here so I hav-" you didn't even get to finish before this very enthusiastic boy started talking again. "Oooohhh! That makes sense! Well we play D&D! You know? Dungeons and dragons? The game? Board game? Fantasy? Roleplay? No? No bell is ringing?" He looks at you slightly disappointed, even before you got to answer. Dustin probably thought you didn't know the game, he just assumed so at least. "I have heard of it yes, but no, haven't played it." You smiled at him, he was actually very nice and sweet, his energy just made you smile. You could tell that he was the sunshine in his friend group without even meeting his friends.
As he was about to respond, someone started talking into a microphone in the middle of the room. "Silence everyone... silence." Dustin looked at you and smiled widely "we will talk later.. Uhm..?"
"Oh! Y/n, my name is y/n" you smile at him in a very shy way. "Nice to meet you y/n, now you have a friend here! I could tell you needed one from the moment I saw you enter the room! Bye!" He said and walks away quickly and back into his friend group.

What the hell was that supposed to mean? Could tell that you needed a friend? Was it that obvious that you were there all alone, new, fresh to all of this? You let out a huge sigh as you look down and into your palms, starting to fiddle with your fingers.
You honestly didn't focus for a second on the speech that the principal held, it was way to boring. All that was on your mind was the things that Dustin said to you, and suddenly, when you were very deep in your thoughts, everyone got up and started walking away. "Oh.." you say to yourself as you stand up, you didn't know where to walk so you just stood there, people started to crash into you, which made you anxious. You turned around and saw people walking towards you, heart starting to race because you had absolutely no idea where to go. Where did you even belong here?
You decided to just walk somewhere, knowing that you had science this day, so you decided on heading towards that room. At least try to find it, you didn't even know if it was the right class at the right time. So you just walked and walked and walked, being way too anxious to ask somebody about where you were going. Suddenly you bumped into someone "shit sorry! Oh.. hi again Dustin" you say as you see the familiar smile across the boys face.
"Hi again y/n! You look slightly confused, do you know where you are going?" He asked with a little giggle, making you nervous again. You really didn't want to seem stupid or anything like that, you wanted to show to a little boy that you had fully control, but honestly... you didn't. You could use some help. "I don't know where the fuck I am or where the fuck I'm going." Dustin laughs and starts to walk down the hallway, you just assume that you should follow him. "So, pretty much everyone has a free period now so the new students can walk around and get to know campus and some new students. I can give you a little tour if you want to?" You smile widely and feel your heartbeat going back down. "Oh my god, please! I would really appreciate that."
So you start waking. Dustin shows you pretty much everything on campus, throwing in some good stories on the way. He was very nice, but definitely a lot younger than you. You really needed to meet someone your age. Dustin started asking about you, and you just answered very simple. You just moved here, live all alone, going into your last year, you tried your best to make it very simple so he wouldn't ask more about it. He seemed to understand it, so he didn't ask much more, instead he started talking about himself and his friends. Mentioning hellfire yet again. "Some of the guys are actually your age I believe, you should meet them. I think you would become great friends. Specially one of the guys, you remind me of him in a way."
You look at him and smile. Who could it be? This.. guy..
