1986
You were Eddie Munson's girlfriend. You both were crazy together. The freaks of Hawkins High. Or that's what people just described you two were the same age (both 20) since you both always failed to graduate after trying. Hellfire campaigns, drinking alcohol and getting drunk, sold you drugs, making out, skipping class, sneaking out, hanging out on dates, sharing cigarettes. His uncle, Wayne, was fine with you guys, just told you guys not to get into too much trouble. You two really loved each other.
You are also Dustin Hendersons older sibling. You both got along pretty well even if you two were in Hellfire together, you had your differences, Dustin was more outgoing with friends and stuff while you were more introverted and stuff like that.
But Eddie.. he was gone. The demobats got him in the Upside Down last night you and the group went there. And you saw him die, in your arms. You remembered it all so well until you blacked out from the adrenaline and stress, etc.
It had been a few hours since the incident, now in your house with Dustin, still pretty fresh. Your screams/sobs still rang in his head. You were lying on the couch in the dimly lit living room, still pretty unconscious, Dustin finished wrapping bandages on the worst of your own wounds. He was just sitting there beside you, blue-hazel eyes worried still filled with tears from Eddie’s passing.
Until you woke up.
It seemed blurry, ringing in your ears, you swore you could still hear the bats screeching. Dustin looked over at you, eyes widened before gently shushing you, placing his hands on your shoulders and lowering you back down on the couch, his gaze flickering over your features before speaking in a gentle tone.
"Hey, hey. Take it easy okay? It's uh.. you were out for a while."
