"But I wanted to threaten him." I heard Max mumble under her breath.
"You can when he wakes up." I patted her shoulder. Max blushed when she knew I heard her.
"Well, what do we do now?" Dustin asked. Max walked towards her step brother and grabbed something out of his jean pockets. She held up Billy's car keys.
"Oh, I'm liking where this is going." Danny grinned. He went to grab the keys out of Max's hands but she drew them back. "What?"
"I'm driving his car." Max pocketed the keys.
"What? No! Why?" Danny crossed his arms.
"We're not all going to fit in his car so we need two drivers." Max stated.
"Yeah. One. Two." I pointed to Danny and myself. I held out my hand. "Now hand them over kid, we gotta help El."
Frowning, Max took out the keys and put them in my hand. I gave her a small smile.
"And Steve?" Dustin pointed towards an unconscious Harrington.
"I'll put him in my car. Dawn, you have the kids." Danny started to walk towards the front door.
"I'll go with you Danny, there won't be enough room in the car." Dustin said.
"Woah, guys. What about Billy? What do we do with him?" Lucas asked.
"We can just leave him here." Max shrugged. The younger boys exchanged looks. Max rolled her eyes and looked over at me. "Let's get out of here."

Before we left, we cleaned Steve's bloodied face and applied butterfly bandaids to his cuts since that was all the Byers' has in their first aid kit. Then we hit the road. Danny, Dustin and Steve (still unconscious) were in Billy's car while everyone else was with me in our car. We left Billy alone in the Byers' house.
"Okay, you're going to go straight for half a mile." Lucas informed me as he held a map in his hands. I nodded and pressed on the gas a little more, breaking the speed limit. "Then left on Mount Sinai."
"Just so you know, you will never experience this type of driving from me again." I quickly glanced at everyone in the car. "And don't drive like this. You will get a ticket and most likely hurt or kill someone. Capisce?"
"Got it."
"That's Mount Sinai! Turn left!" Lucas pointed to the road.
"Shit. Hold on guys!" I moved my foot to the breaks and eased into it before turning into Mount Sinai. Knowing that Danny was behind me, I put my turn signal on. The young teens grasped onto something and held on tightly. The car roughly drifted before smoothly going down the road. "Guys! Did you see that!? I drifted! Do you think I should go to those drag races?"
