We arrived not too long ago at the Junkyard. I took a step down for a moment to rest which the two boys allowed. I looked out to the hill for a bit, noticing the old cars and the big bus. Steve wants us to help and move things around so if Lucas comes around, I'll probably start being a bigger help when he shows up.

"I said medium-well!"

A voice shouts from the top of the hill. I look over and see Lucas! Max too. My eyes widen and I grin, Max waves happily.

"Who's that?" Steve asks.

Dustin hesitates as the two walk in our direction. He doesn't answer and Steve gets me and Max to help out. Dustin gets Lucas behind a red car.

"At least I know someone here..." She sighs.

"You know Dustin and Lucas." I shrug.

"Let me rephrase that. At least I'm not the only girl here."

I chuckle at her statement and she smiles as she yeets a box down.

Max grunts and I help her move the yellow thing she carries. "What do you think they're talking about?" She groans.

"Probably shouldn't ask. You never know. They could be listening to us." I shrug.

We both end up flipping our heads back. Dustin and Lucas quickly duck down behind the car again. Max rolls her eyes. "How convenient."

Steve suddenly bangs a chair against the back of the car and I shift my eyes to look. Max does the same.

"Hey, Dickheads! How come the only one helping me out is Y/N and this random girl? We lose light in fourty minutes. Let's go!"

Lucas and Dustin look over toward us silently, as if not hearing Steve properly.

"Let's go I said!"

"All right! Asshole! God!"
"Okay, stupid!"

Me and Max both giggle to ourselves. "Boys."

We laugh again before continuing with work. Me, Steve, Max, Lucas & Dustin put scrap parts off to the side and clean the place up a bit more. It's tiring, but we got no other choices. We also put things inside the bus and push barrels of gasoline.

Steve pours gasoline on the meat pile and leads it off where he has the distance to light a match. Once we're done, we all step into the bus one by one. I step in last, looking behind me.

"Come on, Y/N."

I face my head forward again and Steve lends his hand to me. I politely take it and he helps me in the bus. The doors shut and now...we have our shield base.

"See anything Lucas?" I whisper asks.

He gets up through the top and sits on the tires, using his binoculars to look around. "Nothing yet, but a lot of fog."

I sigh and sit down by Steve. He clicks his lighter boredly, before looking down at me. Lovingly. His eyes want to tell me something. But we've got the other kids here. I bite my lip and look away.

Dammit...I should've listened to what he wanted to say before.

"So you really fought one of these things before?" Max asks Steve with her arms crossed.

He nods silently, before going down to look at me again.

Does he...love me?

"And you're, like, totally, one hundred percent sure it wasn't a bear?"
