"So when did you and Eddie start getting along?" Dustin asked
"We dont"
"I mean you guys were outside for like half the movie, what were you guys doing?"
"Nothing just- mind your own business Wheeler"
"Do you have a crush on him?" Dustin teased
"Henderson I swear to god I will make you walk home"
"No you won't Im your favourite"
"No you're not, I'm obviously the favourite" Mike argued
"Uh huh, sure buddy"
"You hang out with Eddie more then you do Steve now, do YOU have a crush on him?"
"NO! He's like a brother to me"
"What does that make Steve?"
"My mom" the Two laughed when suddenly Steve slammed on the breaks "don't kick me out I was joking I swear" Steve didn't answer instead he started at the road and breathing heavily. "Steve?"
"Hey man you good?"
"I- i can't breath" he finally said. Steve was panting as his chest burned his body felt heavy and his mind was scattered.
"Steve what's going on?"
"I can't-" Steve gripped the steering wheel till his knuckles turned white
"Steve just breath" Dustin tried to calm him down but nothing was working
"I can't breath, I can't breath, I can't breath!" He put the car into park and got out trying to get some fresh air but instantly fell to his knees and held his shirt tightly "I- FUCK!" Dustin grabbed the walkie-talkie from his bag and changed the channel
"What's going on?" Mike asked
"Robin? ROBIN! ROBIN ITS A CODE RED!"
"What's happening?!"
"I don't know Mike" Steve covered his ears trying to drown out the ringing but nothing was helping. He trembled as that dark murderous feeling was drowning him. Sweat dripped from his forehead as he gripped the dirt. He couldn't get up, he couldn't move his chest burned nothing was working. The feeling, that unsettling feeling spread through his body like a disease it was controlling every nerve making them throb at the same time.
"ROBIN ITS STEVE ANSWER!"
"What's going on?" Robins voice said from the other side of the walkie-talkie
"I don't know Steve is freaking out! He says he can't breath"
"Shit, make him count down from 100"
"Steve count down from 100" Dustin told him
"I can't. I can't. Everything is too loud!"
"Tell him to take it off" Robin said
"Take what off?"
"DUSTIN YOU KNOW WHAT HE HAS TO TAKE OFF. It restricts his air flow you know that!"
"Mike is here though"
"Take what off? what's going on!?" Mike yelled
"Shit, Steve take it off"
"I can't" he panted out. His ears rang loudly he could barely hear the boy telling him to take off his wing strap
"Steve you need to breath take it off!"Dustin got out of the car and knelt down in front of him
"Steve look at me. You need to take it off, you can't breath properly without it you know that, no one is around us. We are surrounded by trees, it's ok"
