(y/n) - your name

The Hawkins group all casually split up to look around the house, looking for any kind of information or clues to help them on their mission on taking down Vecna. (y/n), Max and Billy stuck together, the girls stopping short when they both saw the grandfather clock standing against the wall in front of them. 

"Hey, guys?"

"You all see that, right?" (y/n) and Max ask the others and they all stand behind them, nodding that they could see the grandfather clock.

"Is this what you saw? In your visions?" Nancy asks and the girls nod.

"Why is this wizard obsessed with clocks? Maybe he's, like,a clockmaker or something?" Steve asks, confused as Robin inspects the clock to see it was just an old and regular grandfather clock.

"Congrats Harrington," Billy rolls his eyes, clapping his hands mockingly. "You really solved the case here." he scoffs and Steve glares at him.

"Either way," (y/n) stands between the glaring guys, moving them away from each other so they don't kill each other. "the answer is here somewhere like Nancy said." she nods at (y/n)'s words and suggests everyone split up but stay in groups of 2, taking Robin with her upstairs. Max and Lucas head off, Billy being stopped by his love when she holds onto his arm.

She shakes her head and he sighs. "Yeah ok fine." he really didn't like his little sister being around a boy by herself. "Let's go darling." Billy gently takes (y/n)'s hand and they both walk away from Steve and Dustin as the older one sighs.

"Did you just sigh!?"

(y/n) and Billy head up the stairs, going the opposite way from Robin and Nancy, searching in the eery rooms and creepy hallway. "If we get jumped by something, I swear to god..." (y/n) mutters out, gripping her flashlight tighter as Billy pulled her close. He swatted away the cobwebs in disgust, his love pulling the hoodie over her head tighter to avoid spiders getting in her hair.

"These fucking things are everywhere!" he hisses, annoyed by his hair being messed up.

"It's an old house love, creepy crawlies are bound to live here... even though I want to fucking torch the place-" a violent shiver ran up (y/n)'s spine from the thought, a shudder leaving her lips.

"You and me both princess." the couple roam around together, music drifting from the headphones (y/n) was wearing as she sighs in slight pain from wearing them for hours.

"Wearing this for hours is pissing me off..." she mutters out, rubbing her ears and stretching her jaw to pop her ears. 

The music suddenly stops and she quickly rewinds it again. "There needs to be a longer loop." Billy says, hearing the song playing again.

"62 minutes is legit over an hour and a bit. It's not that bad."

"What if you get sick of this song?  Listening to it over and over again?"

"I am sick of it." Billy blinks at (y/n) in panic.

"What-!?"

"-but that doesn't mean I don't love the song. I love listening to anything, this is the song I just really like at the moment until I find a new favourite and listen to that over and over again."

"So you have multiple favourite songs?" Billy asks (y/n).

"Yeah, who doesn't? It's impossible to pick just one. I'm sure you have your favourites from your rock and metal bands." he nods at his love's words. "I'm surprised you and Eddie haven't bonded over your same music tastes." he scoffs at that.
