SKY COULDN'T SHAKE the erring feeling that will gave off as he walked to the car with a concerned Joyce Byers. He was quiet, yes, but he was silent like a mouse. As if he had never talked a day in his life, which was enough to give sky the creeps. Her friend seemed more than silent, but different in a way she could never relate or sympathize with. Something was off with will Byers and they all knew it. Well, everyone except the oblivious, max mayfield. "Okay, that totally freaked me out."
Max looked at the group around her, "Did that not freak you guys out?" Sky chose not to be hostile and to give the girl a sympathetic smile. "Two episodes in one day." Lucas spoke first. "It's getting worse." Mike didn't stop staring at his best friend.
"You think it's true sight?" Lucas asked, glancing at mike. Sky, Mike and max looked at him. Mike shook his head at him while sky stared at him, only before max asked, "What's true sight?"
Lucas gave max a small smile, "It's nothing."

The next day, the party and max stood around the garbage bin behind the school as Lucas searched inside the bin for dart, which made sense since Dustin found said he found him in the trash. Sky stood far from the trash, not wanting to smell like garbage for the rest of the school day.
Lucas complained, "It stinks in here!"
Mike rolled his eyes, "Just stop being a baby and do it already!"
Sky grimaced as her brother held his nose and dived into the garbage once again.
"This is so disgusting. Is this really necessary?"
Sky stared at the garbage, "Well, considering my brothers in there, yeah. It's necessary."
"What the hells going on?" Dustin stood by the garbage. Mike scrunched up his nose, "What do you think? We're looking for dart."
Suddenly, a bag of trash and extra orange peels were thrown out of the garbage. Sky jumped and moved quickly, bumping shoulders with Dustin. She didn't notice the contact, but Dustin had and his cheeks heated up as she stepped away after the stuff landed on the ground. "Jesus!" Sky shouted at her brother who jumped out of the garbage.
Lucas smelled of complete and utter trash, and Sky was not feeling it. She stepped back a few feet as he crossed his arms, looking at Dustin. "Well, well, well. Look who finally decided to show up. After I drew the short straw. Real convenient."
Max commented in disgust, "You stink!"
She moved and stood next to sky. Dustin leaned back a bit and smiled in her direction, "Hi, max."
"Hi?" Max looked at him weirdly. Sky shook her head and muttered curse words before slapping Dustins hat off his head. He scrambled, but retrieved his hat. Max snickered, as Dustin turned to mike, "Where's Will?"
"He'll be here." Mike assured. Lucas picked up another stick and threw it to Dustin, "Are you just gonna stand there? Or are you gonna help?"
Dustin caught it and soon, the group started poking the trash bag, sky yelping when she saw a cock-roach escape the bag.

Sky munched in her skittles, she ate every color except red. Always. Lucas usual ate her red ones, complaining about how wasteful she was but it didn't change anything. After a while, if he complained, she just threw red ones at him until they were all gone so she'd have nothing to give to him.
Mike jogged from the phone booth and towards the group, "We need to talk. AV room. Right now."
Sky stuffed the last yellow skittle in her mouth and folded the bag up, only the red left. She closed her lunch box and slugged her bag over her shoulder. Max got up, collecting her things as well when mike saw her.
