I was standing feet away from the same thing I saw that night. The same thing that made my mother swerve the car over the edge and right into the quarry. The same thing that no one believed me when I told them what I saw. The same thing that is the reason my mother is dead. I froze as it's mouth opened and it came towards me. I couldn't even move. I was going to die. I was going to die and my father was going to be alone. I shut my eyes tight and heard a loud thud and then silence. I opened my eyes slowly.
The creature was gone, the lights flickering as Steve Harrington stood in front of me. He looked down at me and said something but I couldn't even register it. He continued to speak but I still just sat there staring. Before I knew it he was grabbing my hand, pulling me up.
"August!" He shouted, his hands on my shoulders as he looked at me with concern.
"Y-yeah."
"Are you okay?"
"I'm...I think so. Yes. I'm sorry. I don't know why I- I'm sorry."
"It's okay. It's okay. Just don't freeze up on us again? Alright."
I looked into his eyes as I nodded. What was I getting myself into?
