I sit in the shed across from Eddie as he asks me.
"So can you tell me something about yourself instead of sitting in dead silence?"
"A girl." I say bluntly
"Wha-what?"
"I'm a girl, there I told you about myself." I smile sarcastically.
"Okay I'm serious, what do you like to do?"
"Well um, I work at the video store. I've been friends with Steve since 8th grade and um I like to sleep, I don't know man? I can answer specific questions if you want a more detailed answer." I say shrugging my shoulders.
"Hmm okay. You and Steve aren't dating at alllll?"
"No way!" I laugh "Um it was really funny this one time he tried to kiss me and I was just like 'yeah, no sorry' he was like sooooo embarrassed."
"Never heard of a girl rejecting Steve the hair Harrington before."
"Oh trust me, it happens on a daily basis."
"Good to know. Anyway you dating anybody?"
"Why are all these questions about my love life?"
"Well you all got me curious when you were all laughing before."
"Oooohhh right. Um well uh-I" I stutter over my words, I've never really had to tell anyone about me Robin. I haven't told my mum and that's for a good reason.
"You seemed to stressed by that question so I'll allow a free pass but it's your only one." He laughs
"Thanks."
"Okay nextttt question. What is your favourite food?"
"Tacos or Sushi, easily."
"Ooo okay, I see I see. Favourite colour?"
"F/c. It's just so I dunno comforting? I guess."
"Nice, I like f/c too."
"When did you move to Hawkins?"
"8th grade, 1980." (I very much could've done my math wrong so don't come at me if it's not the right yr)
"Nice nice okay. I think I'll enjoy your company."
"Um thank you?" I say giving a proper smile.꧁T͏i͏m͏e͏ s͏k͏i͏p͏꧂
"Robbbiinnn? Robin!?" I yell into the walkie talkie as quietly as possible even though I'm yelling.
"Your girlfriend isn't here Y/n but Steve is so you can talk to him" my younger brother says.
"Hey Y/n, what's up?" Steve asks
"Why isn't Robin there!?."
"Woah calm down girl, she's safe, she's with Nancy."
"Nancy? Nancy wheeler? She is with Nancy wheeler?" I ask with an unbelievable amount of shock.
"Don't worry they're doing it to defeat Vecna. You've got Robins heart don't worry about that besides if something goes completely wrong between you two you'll always have me as an option."
"Wow Steve. I've never felt more thrilled in my life." I say with no expression in my voice at all. "Anyway if Robins not there that's okay, just tell her I said hi."
"You know I won't."
"Yeah I know you won't." I say as I hang up."What are you doing!?" I whisper yell as Eddie gets up and walks towards the doors.
"What? We gotta eat you know?"
"Fine. Let's go." I say getting up and following him into the house.
Eddie's looks through all the cupboards for food but finds almost nothing. Eventually he finds some type of sauce and some type of pasta.
"You sure that's in date?" I ask him as he puts it into a pan.
"Ehh it's close enough." He shrugs
"Alright but if I get food poisoning you're taking me to the hospital."
"I'm on the run Y/n."
"Well Um then you can yeah okay I give up."
He laughs at my weak attempts of threatening.
"Here you go." He says to me as he places our bowls down on the table.
"Why thank you kind sir." I say in an overly posh voice.
"You're welcome your royal highness."
Once we're finished eating Eddie grabs the walkie talkie.
"Dustin? Henderson? Dustin you there?"
"Hey Eddie, it's Nancy."
"Oh hey Wheeler, listen um I'm gonna need a food run unless you want me going out into the world."
"No, no it's fine we'll get food." Nancy says through the walkie talkie.
"And could you please get me a six pack? I know it's bad because I'm on the run but it would just make me feel so much better."
"Yeah fine whatever."꧁T͏i͏m͏e͏ s͏k͏i͏p͏꧂
"Shit shit shit!" Eddie whisper yells as he looks out the window.
"What!?"
"It's stupid Jason and his friends."
"Holy shit um okay you stay here try and contact the others while I distract them."
"And what if the others don't answer?" He asks before I leave.
"Um escape on the boat or something?"
"Okay."
I sneak out of the shed as quietly as possible.
"Hi Jason and Jason friends just thought I'd let you know that Ricks in jail so you can't buy drugs from here." I smile at them as they look at me like 'what the fuck is up with this bitch?'
"Uh we're not here to buy drugs." The one I think is called Patrick says.
"Oh. Why are you here then? It's not safe to be out while there's a murderer on the loose you know." I use my a high pitched girly voice when talking to them.
"Yeah." Jason says "we could say the same to you."
"Well I'm technically not out, my aunties is just over there." I wave my hand off to the side.
"Okay, well if you've been here, have you noticed anything strange like any people hanging around here?" Jason says
"No." I say shaking my head. "Only seen people who live here. Why's that?"
"Listen kid-
"I'm literally older than you." I say in my normal voice, they all seem shocked when I do.
"Um right sorry, listen girl, the thing is, we think the murderer could be hiding here."
"Oh no, goodness me, do want to look inside to check?" I say going back to the girly voice.
"Um yea sure, you got a key?"
"Yeah, its right there." I point to a nail stuck onto the door frame, it had lots of keys on it.
"Which one is it?" Jason asks
"I dunno probably the first one." I say with a smile as I shrug my shoulders.It takes about seven keys before we get the one that unlocks the door, they look around the house and I follow them trying to act as casual as possible.
We've checked everywhere except for the main bedroom, the place I was trying to avoid, the window looks right out onto the shed. Jason turns the light on then looks around the room a bit before pulling the blind up. He looks straight at the shed, I see Eddie quickly duck out of view but I'm sure Jason saw it too.
"I think we got our murderer."
Shit.I think this was a boring chapter also sorry that Y/n stayed with Eddie it's just easier to write.
Pls vote :)
