y/n's pov

the trip to the duffers office was long and suspenseful, instead of listening to the radio, angela played poem readings. the unknown voices were calming, i got lost, hoping the thought of finn would go away. angela's hair was fixed into a tight bun while mine stayed messy and lose, it was a good look though.

"we're here, are you excited?" she asked merrily, i shook my head, knowing she was disappointed. angela grabbed her coffee mug out of the cup holder and opened the car door, we exited and stared at the small room in front of us. "where are we?" i asked as i fidgeted with my jacket sleeves. "we're at the netflix offices, it's only a small part of it, the big stuff is in some other state! but right now this is the duffer brothers part time offices, as they are moving soon," she lead me to a small room where the duffers and shawn levy sat, drinking soda and discussing something in secret while the five kids my age sat on the couches, all on their phones laughing.

"you're here, we've been waiting," ross said, raising his eyebrow, coming off as a strange and weird man. i caught finn and angela greeting each other with open arms, botch disgusted. "shut up ross, you're scaring her!" matt warned, "hi, i'm matt duffer, this is shawn, ross, sadie, gaten, millie, caleb, and finn. unfortunately noah couldn't come today," he added, "now sit down y/n, we need to go over your character and relationships to these guys over here!"

"i'm y/n y/l/n, and hi... i like food and shit like that?" i realized that i had cussed in front of four adults, but at this point i wanted to feel comfortable. the cast and adults laughed, even finn, i caught him staring but rolled my eyes instead of smiling. i took a seat next to millie who was slapping the couch signalling me to sit with her. "i'm millie and you're awesome! i really hope we can all be friends!" she smiled as everyone agreed, finn looked down. 

"y/n will be playing darcy herrington, dustin's love intrest! she becomes close with millie, i'm sorry, eleven and max. unfortunatley max and eleven have some dramamamama," ross extended his words. caleb elbowed gaten, i blushed a bit, but i have jack, and that's honestly all i need right now. "yay! i'm super excited," millie said in her sweet british accent.

"okay, lunch break, i know we just started but im really hungry! get to know each other okay," they all sat up and exited the cramped room. "y/n let me and sadie get to know your pretty face!" she grabbed me but before i could leave with them finn stopped me with his arm, soon i was staring at his freckles. "y/n.. i-i'm sorry!" i rolled my eyes.

millie and sadie were pretty, and i mean really pretty, was it wrong to be some sort of jealous? they way they talk is perfect, millie has her calming brittish accent and sadie has her powerful one, my voice is of a dying pigeons. we sat down in a sort of break type room, there was a large soda machine in the left corner and a huge tv next to it. "what's the beef with finn?" millie asked, sadie looked at her annoyingly, "don't ask her that?!" i shook my head, "just kid stuff," they understood and slacked it off. we all got to know each other, i felt comfortable, maybe even as happy as i was with jack. (sorry im lazy to write that stuff)

"girls it time to go back to the office, we're going to do trust and improv excercises," angela directed us back towards the cramped room, and this time i sat between millie and sadie who were both tugging my arm. "everyone close your eyes, this is an excercise we have used before but now with y/n, so the first thing i need you to do is walk around the room, just calmly," my eyelashes covered my open eyes, i saw angela turn the lights off, suddenly it was a pitch black. millie giggled and touched my arm, "i love this!" there was a huge beeping noise and everyone stopped, caleb became alarmed and squealed, like he did in the actual tv show. "now, i need you to link arms to whomever is in front of you, when the lights come on begin to talk to your partner like friends," the lights came on and i blinked, realizing the soft, freckled, arms that i was touching were finns. he stared at me in awe, i stared back in disgust.
