Natalie didn't even bother to join the rest. She just took her own car and left. She couldn't stop thinking about Robin and Steve. The thought of them two together just makes her sick. Natalie kept switching the stations because she wasn't in the mood to listen to sappy love songs.

Natalie let out a huge sigh, she gave up and just let Love Is A Battlefield play in the background. She got home and closed the door, not noticing her mother sitting on the couch.

" Estas bien" ( Are you ok)

"Mama,I'm fine. I'm just tired from work"

"Mijita, You know it's normal to have stressful days?What happened"

"I'm jealous of Steve Harrington and I don't know why, I swear I didn't feel this way when he dated my cousin. What the hell is wrong with me."

Natalie snapped out of her thoughts. "It's been a long day, I'm going to bed.

" Buenas Noches" ( Good night)

" Buenas Noches"

" Te Amo" ( I love you)

" Te Amo, también, mama"

Natalie shut the door in her room and changed out her Scoops uniform to fresh pajamas. She passed a blow dryer to her hair. Natalie felt the urge to scream but didn't want to frighten her mother. She landed face flat on her pillow as her screams sounded muffled. No one could hear her.

The three Scoops Ahoy workers listened as Dustin explained what he saw on the rooftop this morning. He is pacing back and forth over and over again. Steve is spinning his hat around while Robin and Natalie sit down "That keycard opens the door, but unfortunately, the Russian with this keycard also has a massive gun. Whatever's in this room, whatever's in those boxes, they don't want anybody finding it."

"But there's got to be a way in," Robin questioned

Steve blew on his hat and leaned on the counter. "Well, you know...I could just take him out. "

Natalie gave him a skeptical look. Steve Harrington against a Russian guard. No way-

"Take who out?" Robin asked

"The Russian guard,"

Now all three of them were staring at him weirdly

"What? I sneak up behind him, I knock him out and take his keycard. It's easy. "

"Did you not hear the part about the massive guns?" Natalie spoke up now

"Yes, Natalie I did." He positions two fingers on the table to signal walking. "Which is why I would be sneaking."

She shook her head and rolled her eyes in disbelief.

"Well, please, tell me this, and be honest, have you ever actually... won a fight." Dustin asked.
