Since Eddie has moved to Hawkins high, you and him had been inseparable. He loved you, you loved him, it was a simple as that. Steve and Robin were in a ‘gang’ with you two and you lot were usually found hanging around behind the school together.

It was the normal Monday morning, you were all late as usual because the 7/11 had caused a delay (you went to get slurpees). Steve was on the radio to Dustin, who was bunking out in the toilets to avoid going to lesson, Robin was sat in silence as she leant against the door of the van and Eddie was humming along to Metallica which was turned down to a volume that felt strange in the van.
