Bite me | Harringrove

Chapter Ten

"STEVE!?" 

He called his name over and over again throughout the house, getting no answer. After a while of searching, he called him, it picked up after the third ring. "Steve Harrington's phone." A deep voice answered, a smirk evident in his voice. 

"You bastard, where is he!" He yelled, the man shushing him on the other line. "Now now, wouldn't want to wake up the princess now would you?"

"What'd you do? Chloroform? Very cowardly of you." Billy taunted, grabbing a baggy shirt from Steve's closet and getting into his car. "No, that would be way too easy. I simply knocked his down with his hammer here, very useful in these situations. "No.." Billy pleaded, pulling out of the driveway and getting on the road. 

"Where is he?" He gritted through his teeth, done with this guy's shit, and needing to get to the point. "Love to hear you so worried Hargrove, never thought you could have feelings of a distressed partner." He laughs, Billy, putting his phone on speaker and put it in the side compartment.

"You sadistic bastard, Where are you keeping him? The old Barn? The House?!"

He clicks his tongue at Billy, chuckling after. "I wouldn't make it that easy on you."

"How do I know he's not already dead?"

He hears movement over the phone then heavy breathing. "B-Billy..?" He hears, the voice broken and hushed. "Steve, baby. Are you okay? Where are you?" He asked, trying to track the location of the call. "I-It's dark and- and cold. Smells like- like-"

"Like what Steve?!"

"Ah, isn't that nice? Little sign of life huh? Hurry Billy, he won't last more than three days without water." The bastard hangs up, Billy throwing it into the backseat and speeding to the outskirts of Hawkins. Going to visit an old friend. 

He pulled up to the Quarry and dialed the number, needing privacy for this call. "Jess, it happened. I need your help." He says, the girl on the other line sighing. "I'm coming, stay right there." She then hangs up and leaves Billy to sit at the edge of the cliff, throwing rocks down into the water. 

He hears the wind move behind him, turns around to see Jessica Adams. His life long best friend. "Hey Billy, come here." She says, hugging him tightly. Jess isn't any normal person, she has been Billy's friend since he became a vampire. She helped him with the potion to keep him from dying in the sunlight. She trained him to use his abilities to not hurt others all of the time. 

"So, what happened. I need everything you have on Steve and what happened right before he was taken."

Billy choked on nothing, sending him into a coughing fit. "Jesus, Billy you good? He break up with you or something?" She asked, patting his back. "I don't think you wanna know what we did before he was abducted." He smiled, Jess immediately starts to fake throwing up. "Okay okay. You're right. Keep your naughty details to yourself. Just tell me about him."

Steve gasped as he woke up, his head throbbing when he blinks. He passed out immediately after he talked to Billy, his body week, and fatigued. He sees the sun poking through the small window in the room, wanting to move his hands but finds them tried to the bed. 

"That won't work Steve." He hears, the man in the corner of the room now sipping on a bottle of water. Steve moves closer to the edge of the bed, swallowing nothing as he opens his mouth to speak. "Please. let me go. I-I won't tell anyone, okay, just please let me out." He begs. The man sighs and walks up to him and pours out the rest of the water in front of him just out of his reach.
