They both heard the secret knock, signaling that he was home. She opened the door from her room with her mind, unlocking the locks. They heard his shoes clomp across the floor, most likely walking over to the dining table that was just big enough for three people.
"Hey, what'd we talk about?" He called out to the sisters.
"No signal," one of them responded.
"What?" Hopper asked confusedly.
"No signal. It's 8-1-5. Your late," the other said.
"Yeah, I lost track of time. I'll signal next time, all right? Uh, and it's 8:15. It's not 8-1-5."
Both of them sat down at the table in front of their food. "Eight-fifteen," Eleven repeated.
"I told you," Cass told her.
"Now, what did we talk about?" Hopper asked the girls. "Dinner first, then dessert. Always. That's a rule. Yeah?"
The girls nodded, replying with "Yes."
They unwrapped their dinner, eating it together.
"You see Lucas today?" Hopper asked Cass as she nodded.
"I did, before you came." She responded.
"You see Mike?" He asked Eleven as she nodded. "How's he doing?"
"Good," she responded, taking a bite out of her meal.
*Skipping to Cass finding out about Max*
Max? Cass didn't know a Max. This was someone knew. Was it someone Lucas had a crush on?
Thoughts started flooding her head of Max and Lucas and if something was going on between them. She started loosing connection, everything fading away into nothing. It ended up going into a dark void, her starting to panic. She closed her eyes, them moving back and forth underneath her eye lids.
She took the blindfolds off, setting it into her lap. She felt some stray tears leave her eyes, also freeing the semi-thick string of blood fall down from her nose. She wiped her nose with a tissues, stopping the blood. She then wiped the stray tears from her cheeks with her hand, taking a deep breath.
There was a knock on the bedroom door, Cass telling them to come in. Eleven walked in, looking at her sister.
"Are you okay?" She asked Cass.
"I'm fine," she lied. "I just miss Lucas."
