Els POV

We finish up at the diner and Jonathan goes up to pay, Max has been acting so weird.

"are you alright Max?"

"yea yeaaaaa" she giggles, I look closely at her face,

"why are your eyes red"

"oh cuz I'm sto-"

"lets go" Jonathan grabbed Max and we followed them out to the car,

"I wanna go to Robinsss" Max says,

"I thought we were gonna hangout?" I ask,

"Robin has all my we-"

"All her weights!!" Jonathan butts in,

"Max doesn't workout?" Will questions him,

"Uh yea she does now" Jonathan starts up the car, pretty soon we arrive at Robins,

"Can I come?" I ask,

"YESS" Max grins

"No El you have homework"

"Come on Jonathan! They just became friends again!" Will agrued,  

"Yea JONATHANN" Max laughs,

"No, now wait here" Jonathan takes Max and helps her inside.

"BYE ELLY WELLY BYEE WILLLLY" Max yells before Jonathan and her head inside,

"uh well she was acting weird" Will says,

"so was Jonathan" I reply.

Max's POV

"ROBIN" Jonathan yells,

"uh what? oh hey max"

"SuPP" I laugh,

"holy shit your so stoned" Robin grabs my arm,

"I accidentally gave her my strong shit and I can't get caught with her, can she stay here?"

"Oh yea sure" Robin sits me down,

"thanks robin" Jonathan leaves,

"bye BITCH" I yell and pull the finger,

"jeez max what did he give you??" Robin laughs,

"weeed" I laugh,

"no shit mayfield" Robin lays me down on the couch and tucks me in with a blanket,

"HEY" I yell,

"Lets just watch a movie alright? I'll tell Susan you're staying the night" Robin walks off to the kitchen,

"fineee" I groan, 

"Hi Mrs May- I mean Hargrove" I hear Robin on the phone so I take the chance to crawl off to the bathroom, it hurts like a bitch but i make it and pull myself up. I open the cabinet and take out a bottle, I open it and put 4 on my tongue,

"Max??" Robin yells, I quickly swallow them and shove the bottle in my pocket, 

"I'm pissing biatch" I flush the toilet, Robin runs in and opens the door,

"god you need to watch your ankle Max!" She takes me back into the lounge and we sit back down on the couch,

"Do you mind if Nancy comes over?"  Robin asks,

"As long as you two don't FUCK in front of me" I chuckle.

"Wow okay, I'm praying your sober by the time she gets here" Robin rolls her eyes, theres a sudden knock on the door,

"SHIT! Max I swear to god you better behave, or else I'll flush everything and I'm not even kidding" Robin frowns,

"If you give me my weed I'll be good!" I grin,

"NO" Robin runs to the door and lets Nancy in,

"Uh I hope you don't mind but Max is here, she is a little loopy from her painkillers"

"hey" I smile,

"it's fine Rob! And hey Max how are you?" Nancy smiles,

"Mm could be soo much better" I stare at Robin,

"Oh look at the time! Maybe you need a nap?" Robin fake smiles,

"I actually need to pee" I get up and crawl over to the bathroom, I look behind and the other two are making out in the kitchen, perfect. I hobble to Robins room and grab my school bag, without thinking I jumping out the window, I try my best to land on my good foot but it doesn't really work. 

"fuck oww" I say to myself, I look around and see Robins bike, I guess it will do. I hop on and glide down the road, I stop at the edge of the forest and dump the bike before limping towards the lookout. I have to stop for a breather at the bottom of the stairwell, shit I'm tired, I roll my eyes and drag myself up the stairs. After what seems like hours I reach the top and sit down, my shirt soaked in sweat, gross. I rest for a second before unzipping my bag, I smile at the sight.

Robins POV

"We should probably check up on Max" Nancy pulls back,

"Whyyy I'm sure she's fine" I groan, Nancy gives me a small peck before dragging me to the bathroom, 

"Max?" Nancy asks, no reply,

"Maxxx open up dummy" I knock on the door but it opens, no ones in there,

"shit" I run to my room and the bags gone, I look at the now open window,

"SHIT" I go over to it and look outside, my bikes now gone,

"NANCE SHES GONE" I yell,

"what? how? she can barely walk??" She comes over to the window,

"Well my bike and her bag are fucking GONE" I ramble,

"Shit I'll call Steve and Jonathan" Nancy runs to the phone and I follow quickly behind,

"Hi uh Steve are you with Max??" Nancy talks into the phone, 

"No? Okay um call back if you do see her" Nancy hangs up and dials in the Byers,

"I'll call the others" Nancy starts to dial them, I go back to my room and sit on my bed. It's my fault. I should've got rid of that stuff. 

"She's not with anyone" Nancy sits down beside me,

"I'm sure she just went home" She says,

"Yea probably, how about we pick her up before school tomorrow? Just to know she's okay?" I sit up,

"Yea sure" Nancy grabs my hand and we go back to making out.

-the next day-

Max's POV

"Ugh shit where am I?" I sit up and look around, I'm still at the lookout. 

"SHIT SCHOOL" I quickly get up and look in the bag, I throw a hoodie on and hop down the stairs. Fuck my ankle hurts, I reach back into my bag and grab a random bottle, I open it and poor some into my mouth before somewhat running to Robins bike. I clamber on and ride to school, I drop the bike and hobble into school. When I arrive the hallways are packed so I put my hood up and make a beeline to the bathroom,

"Max?" Someone grabs me, I look up, it's Mike.

"What?" I gulp,

"Where have you been? Everyone thought you were missing and now you just show up in 4th period?" He says, 

"I accidentally slept in okay?" I angrily push his arm off,

"Okay well hurry up we have science" He pulls me by my bag until we make it into the class, I dump my bag and sit down, I can tell everyone is staring at me.
