School was definitely on June's list of her least favorite things ever. The entire eight hour day could he summed up into one word; hell. The halls were too narrow, the kids too loud, and the teacher too demanding. She absolutely hated sitting at a desk all day everyday and the countless detention slips she had received in the past showed it.

She supposed there was a few silver linings. The main on was, of course, being able to see her friends for long periods of time. Some of the boys were also pretty fun to look at. But other then that, no other positives really came to mind.

There were some people who thrived in the stiff, tense environment. June Henderson just didn't happen to be one of those people.

The brunette tried not to roll her eyes when a high pitched voice called out to her— she really, really did. But she only knew one freckled face girl who would be calling her loudly over the seas of people in the hallway. One she wasn't all too fond of.

Carol grinned as June turned to face her, the girl's skirt swinging around her thighs from the movement. June was hesitant to join whatever conversation that was going on, but she knew Carol would drag her by her elbow if she didn't.

In a weirdly, mismatched circle stood the least likely group of people to be found together— aside from if Jonathan Byers was thrown into the mix. Carol stood leaning against the green and yellow painted strip wall, Tommy H. proudly by her side. Next to him was Steve along with Nancy Wheeler are her friend Barb.

It looked like a sad rendition of a low budget Hollywood chick flick. A tad too cliche for June's taste.

"Yes?" June questioned the red head, getting straight to the point. June tolerated Tommy and Carol at best, having been forced to get used to their presence.

She had been to parties with the duo. June couldn't lie, they were fun to be around when they wanted to be. It was too bad that their default setting was asshole.

"Steve's parents went out of town for the week," Carol smirked, clicking her tongue as she continued, "—we were planning on getting together later. You should join. You can even bring the other Golden Girls if you want."

June looked over the group with furrowed brows, focusing in on an uncomfortable looking Nancy and Barb. The two didn't exactly radiate party-goer energy.

Steve looked over expectedly, waiting for the short girl to answer. June Henderson wasn't exactly the type to turn down free booze.
