"I'd like to believe that when he said it she was still in the void, like she'd found Billy and was ready to leave but then Mike shows up and she hears it and rips the blindfold down like :0"
this is based off a conversation with my best friend I'm sorry it's short
El had been given the task to find Billy and all the other flayed. Not a big deal. She could get through it, she found people in the void all the time.
With the pictures laid in front of her, the small TV continuously playing static, a pile of tissues next to her, her breathing was less than steady. She was scared about what she'd see.
But she kept going. Trying to be courageous. She could've gotten out of there immediately, and said she was scared. But, well, only one person would be okay with that. Someone who was more concerned about her health more than anyone.
But in the eyes of everyone else she knew she'd be a coward, so she continued. Her feet splashing against the watery floor of the endless void.
That's when she saw Billy. He was just sitting there, on his bed. Expressionless. It sent an eerie chill down her spine. It was Fourth Of July, she'd have to ask Max if that was normal. She didn't deem it normal.
She thought of it as wrong just like everything else with Billy. From the moment she saw him with Heather and he sensed her. He seemed wrong.
With that, she thought she was okay to go. He was the host after all. So she turned her back on him as he turned to mist. She was closing her eyes when two other figures entered the dark space.
Her eyes were blown wide, it was, Max and Mike? They were in the kitchen with the others, and they were arguing. She took a moment, walking closer to them as the others developed in as well.
"Oh she didn't tell you this? Your girlfriend used El's powers to spy on us."
"No, no no no, I did not make her, it was HER idea. And why are we even talking about this?" Max retorted.
"Yeah, who cares?" Will added.
"I care!" Lucas replied.
"Yeah I guess girlfriends don't lie they spy." Mike had turned back to Max.
"We were just joking around!"
"Wouldn't it have been so funny if I was taking a massive shit or something?" Mike replied.
El couldn't help but roll her eyes, but still giggle at his stupid comebacks.
"You weren't."
"Well what if I was?!" Mike shot back.
"Then, gross!" she scoffed.
"Seriously Mike?" Nancy asked, clearly fed up with the stupid argument.
"I'm just trying to demonstrate how careless Max is with Eleven's powers. In fact how careless all of you are! You're treating her like a machine when she's not a machine, and I don't want her to die looking for the flayed when they've obviously vanished off the face of the Earth,"
Everyone was visibly irritated.
"So can we please just come up with a new plan; because I love her and I can't lose her again!"
Love. That little word in all her soaps that Hopper said she wouldn't understand until she was older.
She took a sharp breath in, collapsing backwards and back into the real world, tearing her blindfold off, her mouth hung open in shock, her cheeks barely blushed. She took in his words, standing up.
She opened the door to her room, walking out. The way Mike looked at her made her nostalgic, taking her back nearly 2 years before.
"What's going on?" she asked, knowing what had just occurred but remaining silent about it.
"Nothing. Nothing." Mike replied.
"Just family discussion." Lucas smirked.
Well that certainly wasn't nothing.
