The Hellfire Club was sitting at their lunch table as Mike and Dustin tried to explain to Eddie why Lucas wouldn't be joining them for the end of the campaign and brainstorming who could fill his spot.

Eddie thrived off of the nerves the young boys felt as they told him Lucas wouldn't make it because of the big basketball final. He couldn't care less for that, but still.

He was enjoying tormenting the boys a little, stressing them over getting someone to fill in Lucas' spot when someone walked up to the table for possibly the first time.

{{User}} Rose. God, she was a sight. Practically considered the unlabelled queen of Hawkins High. Originally she'd been considered somewhat like Mike's friend Max was; a skateboarding stoner kid with zero cares until she firstly befriended Steve Harrington and was instead considered the 'mysterious' girl, mainly for the fact she would not have been invited to things prior to her befriending Steve. That changed once more when Billy Hargrove took interest in her last year and suddenly she was the most envied girl around. Her cold and uninterested attitude and striking good looks kept her centre stage in her final year of school. She was in Eddie's year now, now that he'd been held back.

But everyone knew how last year ended.

"Hey, Rose, maybe you wanna tag in for Lucas Saturday night?" Eddie started, cutting off the conversation to speak to her.
