Eddie
It's been four months since hell came to Hawkins. Four months since life has never been the same. Four months since people turn around and walk the other way when they see me. Since my name has been cleared. Like that even mattered. They still look at me like I'm guilty.
My freshly healed skin burns from Overexertion as I load the last of the amps in the back of my van. I stand up straight and I feel the worst of it burning on my chest. Where two tattoos used to sit now sits thick scar tissue. Scar tissue. It now covers my body like patch work. I can't decide if it makes me look more bad ass or just like a monster every thinks I am. I roll my eyes as I make my way to the driver side of my van. Sliding in and starting her up. When she roars to life, I grin to my self. She never lets me down. She has been beat to all hell but she never fails to start. As the music starts to blare I remember that the new shipment of tapes should be coming into the record store. I needed to pick up a new copy of Iron Maiden's somewhere in time. Having accidentally stepped on it two days ago to trying to get out of the house in time for band practice. I mentally smack my self upside the head.
I speed off which causes some looks from people on their porches, pulling their children closer. I can't stand this town anymore. I have to get away. To LA maybe. Get some gigs playing the whiskey. Maybe the troubadour. Like a lot of up and coming band. New bands are making a name for themselves playing the clubs. Hear a newer band called Guns n roses are making a lot of noise. Opening for some pretty cool bands. I just have to get out of here.
My breaks squeal as I come to a stop I front of the store front. Just as i am closing my door to the van the door to the stairway that leads to the apartment above the store flys open. Out flies
a disheveled girl with shoulder length brown hair.
"Thanks mrs. Mcnealy!" She yells as she runs to the door and unlocks it throwing the door open with a ding of the bell. As the door closes I can see she lets out a long breath throwing her head back. I scrunch my eyebrows wondering what had her so frazzled this early in the morning. As I step forward I look at her cut off jeans shorts and black shirt with the sleeve cut off. She is definitely ready for the July heat wave. As the door dings as in open the door she looks over her shoulder with a smile as bright as the sun and eyes as green as tree leaves with the sun shining threw them she calls out..
"Good morning! I'll be right with you! Feel free to browse"
