cuz you and i - [Max Mayfield]

Morse code

They all walked out of there, with Belly on Steve's back, she was half concious, Steve's jacket was now being used to cover her wound

She couldn't hear anything properly, but she knew, they were walking out of there, and she was on Steve's back, she kept her eyes close, feeling too weak due to the blood loss to even open them 

She felt Steve abruptly come to a stop, and she heard yelling, they were probably arguing, she opened her eyes to see, Max, Dustin and Lucas standing in a circle, all the three arguing, she let out a groan

"Hey you are awake" Steve asked her softly looking over his shoulder

"Yeah, let me down" she whispered

"No, you're too weak-" she grabbed his hair cutting him off

"Let me down, or I'll pluck your hair and mess them up for good" She warned and Steve sighed letting her down, he still held her hand helping her stand, which she appreciated, Steve turned towards the forest where they both heard screeching noises, they shared a look before calling the others and heading towards where the sound was coming from

They came to a stop as they looked at each other, as Lucas took out his binoculars to take a closer look

"It's the lab, they were going back home" he mentioned

They all walked towards the location, between the woods, Belly held onto Steve's arm for support which he didn't mind at all, they came to a stop where they saw two people staring at them

"Steve?" they both said

"Jonathan? Nancy?" They said as the two noticed Belly's stomach, Nancy's instinctively going forward to check on her, as so did Jonathan, they suddenly heard creature's screeching from the lab

Hearing that, Belly grew more worried by the second, if Will and Mike were in there, it'd be a nightmare, they all ran towards the door, Jonathan went inside the small operating room, to try and open the doors

But nothing worked, they all panicked, Dustin went inside and pushed Jonathan, pressing the same buttons he did just with more rage, a couple of tries and nothing worked when suddenly the gate opened, Jonathan ran outside to his car and drove inside with Nancy beside him

The five of them waited outside, Belly on the ground with the small operating room supporting her back, she was dizzy, much more than what she'd like to express, Steve looked at her with concerned eyes when suddenly, Jonathan's car passed them at full speed, behind which was Hopper's car, he stopped right beside them as he told them to get inside, they all did, Steve and Belly staying close

"What happened?" Hopper asked Belly

"One of the creatures stabbed her, it's a long story" Steve explained for her

"But I am perfectly fine" Belly butted in making both Steve and Hopper glare at her

Hopper drove fast and stopped only once they were in front of the Byer's house, Belly got out with Steve's help, getting inside the house, Hopper headed towards a room and getting as much first aid as possible, he made her sit at one of the chairs, and treated her with Steve's help

"So luckily it isn't any serious wound, it'll hurt a little now, tell me when it's too tight" Hopper said pulling the bandaid on her wound, tightening it until she groaned "Alright you'll be okay kiddo you are strong" Hopper said patting her on her head and walking towards the phone to call for help

Belly leaned her head back sighing, her hands on the table, Max put hers on top of Belly's, she in return held her hand, smiling at her, Max gave her hand a little squeeze

"You'll be okay" Max whispered softly

"I am okay, didn't you hear Hopper? I am strong" she said making them both chuckle, Belly closed her eyes feeling a little worn out from all the walking she did after being stabbed, but she was listening to every word

How it was the mind flayer controlling everything, even Will and the demo-dogs, a name Dustin gave the creature from earlier, now Will was basically the one who knows everything about it, and a spy, so they decided they'd tie him up in some room at the back of their house and interrogate him

Belly worked with Steve covering the walls of the small place of another side, as Steve and Nancy worked on one, she didn't wanna be the thirdwheel between them so she kept her distance

When all this was ready, Jonathan brought Will, from inside the house, and tied him to the chair placed in the middle, Belly checked everywhere around to make sure everything was covered, before walking back inside the house, she sat down, the wall supporting her back, when Max took a seat across from her, a moment of silence passed between the two

"If he finds out where we are, will he send those dogs after us?" Max questioned, her hands crossed across her chest, Belly straightened her back

"If he does, yes, but no he won't find out" Belly answered nodding multiple times trying to convince herself

"But if he does" Max asked scared, Belly looked into her eyes shrugging before looking down "Does it hurt?" she asked pointing at her stomach

"Oh yeah, just a little bit, when I talk or move" she explained making Max nod

"About what you said earlier, before passing out, in the bus" Max started Belly looked at her with confused expressions, which made Max sigh "Nevermind" she said they suddenly heard the door open and Hopper come in, he started writing something

"What happened?" Dustin asked the question that was on everybody's mind

"I think he's talking, just not with words" Hopper said before going back to writing the Morse code again

"What is it?" Steve asked from behind him

"Morse code" Belly said looking at the paper, Hopper figured out and translated, which was 'H-E-R-E'

"Here" they all mumbled Hopper dropped the pen on the table

"Will's still in there, he's talking to us" He looked at Joyce, Jonathan, Hopper, Joyce and Mike went out to Will again to continue whatever they were doing, while the rest stayed there trying to translate whatever Will was trying to say through Morse code

"Close gate" They all mumbled from behind Nancy when they were done translating, the phone suddenly rang, and rang again, Nancy unplugged it and threw it to the ground

"Do you think he heard that?" Max asked from behind Belly

"I mean, it's just a phone, it could be anywhere right?" Steve asked the group

"It's the Byer's phone" Belly mumbled before stepping towards the door as everyone followed, they heard creature's screeching

"Oh that's bad" She mumbled
