Adira let out a groan of boredom as she threw her head back against the head rest. "Oh my lord I'm bored as bat shit right now man," Adira whined, hitting the back of her head over and over again on the head rest, causing Robin to snort softly in amusement as she looked over at the girl, brushing her hair behind her ear with a gentle smile

They had been sitting in the van for over an hour and this was just about the hundredth time that Adira had lost the game of chopsticks to Robin in the last 30 minutes.

The van was pretty divided. Steve was at the front of the van by himself, Max and Lucas were sitting in an awkward silence at the back of the bus, Dustin and Eddie were talking to each other over in the corner behind Steve's seat, Nancy was sitting by herself, staring outside the window in silence as she watched the trees pass, exhausted from the events from before  

Robin and Adira were sitting together and had tried multiple methods to try and keep themselves occupied as the time ticked past and they stayed in the van that smelt like cigarettes, sex and mould.

At first, the two girls had started singing, clearly enjoying themselves as they clenched their fists and held it up near their mouths as if they we're microphones, however this didn't last long as a scatter of 'shut ups' were thrown at them from around the bus.

They had then decided to try and plait each others hair, but there were way too many knots in their hair since neither of them had had the time over the last couple of days to properly brush their hair out. And then they had both tried to play charades but they gave up as they continued to fail to guess what the other person was acting out, and then lastly, they played chopsticks.

"This place fucking stinks," Robin whined as she tried to open the window next to her even more, but it was jammed and there was only a small gap, allowing only a small amount of fresh air to come through, "why couldn't we have stolen a nicer caravan than this one?"

"Tell me about it, it smells worse than Steves bedroom," Adira retorted with a snort of amusement, "and that shit is nasty as hell". The two girls stopped talking as they watched Nancy stand up from her chair.

Adira's eyes followed Nancy as she walked past Adira and Robin and made her way over to the passenger seat where she began to talk to Steve. Adira furrowed her eyebrows softly and refrained from letting out a small sigh, knowing that this was only going to end up with her brother getting hurt

"they're cute arent they?" Robin asked Adira softly so that nobody else could hear their conversation. Adira turned to look away from Nancy and her brother to look at Robin instead, forcing herself to not roll her eyes.

"Are you kidding Rob? Look, I love Nancy... don't get me wrong, she is a good friend of mine, but she doesnt deserve my brother," Adira whispered to Robin so that only the short haired girl could hear her, "she completely crushed his heart... and yes I'll admit my brother is far from being a saint, but he really fucking loves Nancy and he tried to make up for the theatre incident over and over again, hell he did more than enough to make up for it, but instead she left him for that Byers kid," Adira explained to Robin.

Robin nodded her head softly, she could definitely see where Adira was coming from. "Anyways, I should probably just stay out of it, its not really any of my business and I dont want to be the annoying overbearing sister who doesn't know how to keep her nose out of her brothers business, he's old enough to choose his own path and make his own decisions," Adira muttered out with a small sigh. She was clearly getting upset over the conversation as she began to fiddle her fingers anxiously before standing up, "anyways enough of the overprotective sister shit, I'm gonna go and hang out with Ed's and Dustin for a bit, wanna come?" She asked Robin
