87

(y/n) - your name

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Jesus fucking christ..." (y/n) mumbles out as she covers her mouth with the sleeve of her plaid shirt, disgusted by all the dust and the vines that covered the inside of her house. "This is disgusting..."

"You said it." Robin agrees, Eddie looking around and avoiding touching the vines that crawled over the walls.

"Where are these so-called guns you have (y/n)?" he asks and Billy walks past the group.

"They're stored in her bedroom. (y/n) keeps all her personal belongings in her room which leaves the rest of the house looking unlived in." he snickers as his love wacks his arm. "What? It's true."

"Yeah yeah. Lead the way since you know better." She rolls her eyes with a smile, the group hustling it up the stairs. "Besides the bat I own, I have something in close proximity in case someone decides to break in."

"What was it you said, wack someone in the head with your bat?" Billy mocks lightly, swinging his arms like he was pretending to swing a bat over someone's head.

"You're very funny, ha ha." (y/n) says dryly but stops short noticing a strange portrait she doesn't remember having on the wall by the stairs. "The fuck is this?" there was more than one, all of them portraying a family of four. "Who are these people?" she takes the picture off, wiping the dust.

"Uh (y/n), you sure this is your room?" Robin asks, opening the door to reveal it being filled with nursery and baby stuff. "You didn't tell us you and Hargrove had a kid together!" Robin gasps as (y/n) runs upstairs and enters what was supposed to be her bedroom.

"This... this isn't right. None of this is supposed to be here." she scrambles to open the sliding mirror wardrobe doors, kneeling to the floor for the loose carpet where she hid the guns beneath broken wooden floorboards. "They're not here!" the whole compartment was empty, just filled with dust and cobwebs.

"Maybe they're somewhere else? Maybe you put them in a different spot-"

"-I never move my stuff, they would be here." (y/n) shakes her head at Eddie before standing up. "Let's go to Nancy's, I don't want to waste our time trying to look around my place."

"Are you sure?" Nancy asks and (y/n) nods. "Let's go, it's just a couple blocks away." The group hustle it out of the house, Billy looking at his own home just across the street and seeing the lease sign on the front yard.

"Wait, why the hell is there a lease sign when we live here-this is before we moved in!" Billy realises and everyone stops to look at him.

"Is that why there's family stuff in my place? Is that the previous owners before I moved in?" (y/n) asks. "But how is that possible?"

"Are you both sure-?"

"-Max and her mum are living in (y/n)'s place now and there's a new family living in our old place. There wouldn't be a lease sign there unless it was before we both moved to Hawkins last September." Billy explains.

"The Upside Down is in the past?" Eddie asks.

"But how far in the past?" Steve says, everyone looking at each other before booking it to Nancy's place. They made it in time, stumbling into the house and quickly heading upstairs. Steve stops short, turning around when he hears something and Billy and (y/n) stop as well.

"What's wrong-"

"-shhhh."

"Did you just shush me?" (y/n) gasps at Steve but stays quiet when he shakes his head.
