Four children walk up to the counter oh great, I think. "Steve your children are here!"
I yell, steve comes running through the door letting it slam behind him "what are you evening doing with your children anyway?" I ask
"We're going to see the new movie" eleven replies while grasping onto mikes hand like she would never let go
"Well we're going to go now, Thanks for covering my shift," Steve says
"You owe me one!" I say

Steve and his children all start walking away Dustin is in front talking with Steve, of course, eleven, and mike holding hands like they always do and a young boy with an atrocious haircut follows behind quietly suddenly the young boy stops walking and just stands there for a minute

"Uhm guys I think I'm going stay behind, you guys know horror movies aren't my thing."
"Yeah Mk!" Steve just replied quickly without stopping or turning back to look at him, I felt quite bad for the boy if I'm being honest no one even cared that he wasn't going really.

The young boy sits down at a table just looking down at the ground, okay now I truly do feel bad for this kid he looks so sad and lonely over there.

I walk over to the table where the lonely boy is sitting
"Hey," I say
"Hi." He says
"I'm robin Buckley, and yours is?" I couldn't think of anything else to say so I thought the name question would be my best bet.
"I'm will Byers."
"Oh my gosh like the actual will Byers? Steve told me so much about you!"

I keep going on and on with my words, sometimes I should just calm down and not talk so much, but Will didn't care he didn't tell me to slow down or to shut up he just sat there and listened

We started talking more and more about random things will started going on and on about dnd which in my opinion is boring as hell but I just sit there and listened as he did to me.

Our conversation gets interrupted by a girl ringing the bell, it was Erica, Erica is one of our loyal "costumer" even though she's technically a customer because all she ever gets is samples and never actually pays for anything
"Erica were closed at the moment."

"That's not what the sign says." She said in a snarky way
"Go away Erica you're not getting the samples."
"Fine, but I'll be back." Erica and her squad stroll out of the room quickly

Both I and will chuckle at the interaction

"Hey, uhm robin?" Will says he looks worried
"Yes Will what's up?"
"Well uhm there's this b- person that I uhm like, but this person likes someone else and it's just been really hard do you have some uhm advice?" He said looking down at the floor
"I wish I had some advice for you." I chuckled "I mean it's kinda like my situation, there's this girl and well she's a really good friend of mine and I have started to like her but I don't think she's Into, you know people like me."
"D-did you say that you like a girl?"
"Yes I'm uhm well I like girls, and only girls I believe."
"Really?" He said with a lot of enthusiasm in his voice
"Yeah so you better not be homophobic" I chuckle

"No, no I'm not! I uhm like boys I think." Wills says he looks as if he's about to start crying.

My smile widened and give will a huge hug
"Have you uhm ever told anyone about this before?"
"No, have you?"
"Only Steve knows actually."
An idea pops into my head yes I know this idea is insanely stupid, like most of my ideas
"You know what will, let's show are people what they're missing."
"What?"
"Let's try to get with are people, or well something besides sitting on our asses."
"That doesn't sound like the best idea."
"Will none of my ideas are really the best." I say chuckling "so you in or not?"
"Fine, but nothing too crazy."
"I am crazy." Will gives me a look "but I definitely won't go too crazy."
