'He gazed into her teary eyes, she ran her thumb over his bruising cheek. Smoke blew through their lips, mingling in their air. She couldn't stand to see him hurting, he couldn't stand to see her cry.'

' We're all fucked. '
^^^^^
Eden felt Will's eyes on her as she came into his line of sight, keeping her head low as she walked behind Jonathan. The boy all but slammed the boombox onto the ground, shoving the tape in before he sat down as it began to play.
'Do you remember the first time I played you this? Mum and Dad were both arguing in the next room,' Jonathan kept his gaze directly on his brother; 'So I played you the mix tape I made you. And it was the first time you got into music. Real music.'
The girl watched as Will's fingers tapped on the side of the chair, Hopper watching them carefully. And once Jonathan stood, she was shoved into the seat. She cleared her throat, threading her fingers together as she leant forward onto her knees.
'You remember Halloween a few years ago?' She asked; 'When we hid from Jonny when we were trick or treating. He was calling for us, so worried. Then we jumped out and scared the crap out of him. He squealed like a little girl, remember?'
She waited until she heard Will's fingers tapping before she got up, Mike taking her seat. And that was how it went. Mike and Joyce going next, telling their stories to bring Will into his mind. Eden held Jonathan's hand as they watched the younger boy's pained face as he looked at whoever sat before him, listening to their story as he tapped out different letters on the leg of the chair.
His fingers stopped once the music did, Joyce finished her story in tears. They all waited to see if he would tap anymore, before the distant sound of a phone ringing sounded. Eden's heart leapt into her throat, having a pretty good feeling as to who was ringing at such a time. She raced forward, slipping out the door and jogging across the yard. She pushed the door open, letting it hit the wall behind it with a bang; just managing to catch Nancy pegging the phone to the ground.
'Billy,' She croaked.
The blonde boy strode across the room, meeting her within three strides as the others looked toward the kitchen window; waiting to see what would happen.
'What?' Billy asked her.
'Dad's coming,' She whispered.
'How do you know?'
'That would've been him on the phone.'
'Do you think he heard that?' Max asked.
'It's just a phone. It could be anywhere... Right?' Steve suggested.
'No, fuckstick. He's gonna know the sound of his landline. We're all fucked,' Eden snapped.
'Come on. Honestly. He can't know. He's possessed.'
'Fuck, you're dumber then I thought.'
'You little b-'
'Hey,' Billy stepped in front of his girlfriend as Steve took a step forward; 'Touch her and I'll beat you to a pulp.'
