Halley's pov
Today is gym and I have it with Billy. He kisses me softly "see you in a bit" I blush "yeah" looking him over he had a bruise this morning on his face he must've covered it up. He mutters "I'm okay" I nod and take a seat as he goes to change and I sit and think and write down ways I can help Billy get away from his father.

Tell hopper and have him arrested

I write that first but cross it out realizing he doesn't want anyone to know about it. He trusted me with the information so I can't break his trust and say something even though I want to.

Anonymous tip to hopper?

I write the word maybe next to it not completely sure.

"So you're seeing the freak and Billy?" It's Tina. She's not happy. I reply "I don't see how it's your business Tina. We're not friends and telling by this morning Billy isn't interested"

she glares "it's my business because he's mine. Now all of a sudden he wants you of all people? You're a freak just as much as eddie is" I snap "don't call him that!" Referring to eddie. She smirks "whatcha got there" reaching for my note book and I pull it away "none of your business Tina" "you don't seriously think they actually want you do you? They're just fishing for Emerson's sloppy seconds. You'll be dumb enough to fall for it too I bet" she snaps.

Billy comes over "was my warning earlier not enough for you Tina. Back the hell off and away from her. Now" she does and mutters "this isn't over"
He glares her way and sits with me "what she said isn't true you know. You mean more to me, more to Eddie than a bet. I don't care about whether or not we have sex. If we do it'll be your call and we'll still be with you and still have you as much as you allow" he sees the notebook "what are you working on" "just brain storming" I say and he kisses my cheek "hold my shirt for me yeah?" With a cheeky smirk. I nod and he takes it off and I blush when he winks at my stare "like what you see baby?" He makes me look at him "it's okay to stare. I'm all yours" and he kisses me.

I watch him play the game and blush when he says "this one's for you" and he takes the ball from Steve and makes a shot and he winks and flexes. I open the notebook and think and an idea comes to mind. One that'll work but I'll have to wait until after my birthday.

Use college fund to get Billy a home.

I circle it and smile. I know he won't approve but I'm not going to college. I don't want to. The money is just going to sit there. I want to use it for some good. For him. So he doesn't have to worry about his father and him being hurt. He'd do the same for me if I were in his shoes. I want him safe.
