Only Love Can Hurt Like This - Paloma Faith

Only love can hurt like this

Your kisses burn into my skin

...

The plan was set. They would go to War Zone a new shop full of guns and other items that would come into use when killing Vecna. The others were inside now while Eddie of course was hiding out in the stolen RV, alone with Lucas and Dustin. Fel sat in the front watching Eddie carefully. She could tell he was still not okay with this idea. And she wished she could read his mind and see what he was thinking. Figure out which part was troubling him the most. Hoping she could fix it somehow.

" How are you doing?" Felicity was brought out of her thoughts looking over to see Dustin sitting beside her now. She gave him a soft smile taking in a breath. " I'm doing good" Dustin only looked at her, waiting for a real answer. The girl chuckled slightly under her breath and tilted her head to the side. " You know me too well Dusty." Dustin laughed a bit too.

" I don't know how I am." she ran a hand over her pink dress. It's funny cause just days ago she had wished for nothing more then to wear this dress just once. And now all she wanted was out of it. And maybe a shower too. But instead, she was forced to figure out how to save the world. The change of clothing and shower would have to wait.

" I'm scared" She frowned hearing Dustin say that. She reached over grabbing his hand. " You have nothing to worry about Dustin, I'll make sure nothing happens to you." Dustin turned his hand in hers and linked their hands completely. " I know you won't. And I'm not scared for myself. I'm scared for you. I can't lose you. You're my sister" Fel's eyes widened slightly. Dustin has never really said the words before. He always said she either wasn't his sister or just brush off whenever it was brought up.

She quickly reached forward engulfing him in a tight hug. " He almost got you once, and I wasn't there to help." Dustin's voice was shaky and weak and Fel could feel her eyes watering. " I promise Dusty when this is over I'll still be here. I always will be here for you." Dustin nodded slightly and pulled away. Felicity's lips still held the soft smile and when she saw a single tear on her brother's cheek she wiped it away.

" Just to be clear my eyes are sweating, I'm not crying" Dustin sniffled and Fel shoved him away jokenly. " Right totally" She giggled watching him walk to the back where Lucas was sitting nervously.

Felicity looked at Dustin happily speaking to Lucas. Even in the hell, they were in right now. Somehow, they could still smile and laugh. Eddie was also looking at the kids. And an ever so slight smile on his lips too. And for some reason that just warmed Fel even more inside. She could see how clear it was that Eddie cared deeply for the kids. Just another reason she fell so hard for him.

But Dustin was right about something. Though he never said the words, Fel could read them off his thoughts. He was scared of her dying during this all. Cause her chances weren't looking the best. Days go a part of her wasn't ready to die. But for some reason watching them knowing the kids, especially Dustin would be safe. And knowing the group would always have each other. That fear of death wasn't there anymore.

...

" Before she died she told me this plan, if everything doesn't work out completely she would write a note. For every event. My 30th birthday, my wedding, my graduation. All of it." The girl closed the box of clothing with a sigh. " That sounds nice" Hopper sighed clearing his throat. " Yeah, it would have been nice. If only she didn't grow too weak to hold a pencil." Fel kicked the box with her foot, sliding it over to Hopper who stood in the doorway of the girl's now old room.
