A snack-sized gate

-Y/N's pov-

"What do you mean?" Dustin asked kneeling down next to me

I looked at Lucas "He got Patrick." then I looked back at Dustin "He's counting them."

I sit leaned against Dustin's shoulder in the far back of the car with Steve across from us. I'm listening to the music and everyone talking.

"Not to be a wimp, but can I maybe sit in the car for this visit? Cause this is gonna totally and royally suck." Robin asked

"It'll be fine." Nancy reassured

"I can't stand to see those dull eyes of Eddie's break again. I really, really can't."

"At least he can drink himself into feeling better." Steve held up a six pack

"That's what my mom does." Max added

"Why don't we just give it a try? 'Hey,  Eddie. Good news first this time. We got you some 
Y/N-and-Dustin-approved junk food and that six pack you requested. Oh yeah, and we found Vecna. Only that the bad news is that he's in that other, darker, much scarier dimension that we told you about, and the gate's closed, so we have no way of getting to him. Like, he's entirely shut off to us, so basically you're screwed. I know that you're already screwed but now you're doubly, triply screwed!'" Robin rambled

"Wait, wait, wait. Maybe we don't put it like that." Lucas said

"'we're one step closer to finding Vecna.' that's what we say. That's what's important." Nancy kept her eyes on the road as she spoke

"See, Robin? Positive spin can make all the difference." Steve said before shoveling Pringles chips into his mouth.

"Give me that." I said snatching the can of chips and starting to eat them

"Hey!"

"Oh, Shit." Nancy cursed causing us all to look out the front window, we pulled up to a crowd with the sheriff there. We all got out the car and followed Nancy somewhere. We went over to the caution tape and listened to the chief talk. He released Eddie's name.

This was never meant to happen. They weren't meant to know Patrick died! Shit!

"Shit! This isn't good. He can't be here anymore, the police would've found him." I looked around at the house, studying the ground for any idea of where he could've gone.

"Dustin, can you hear me? Wheeler?" Eddie's voice sounded through my walkie

"Eddie. Holy shit. Are you good?" I asked quietly

"Nah, man. Pretty goddamn far from good."

"Where is he?" Dustin asked

"Where are you at?"

"Skull rock. You know it?"

"Uh," I looked at Dustin

"It's near Cornwallis and Garrett."

"Yeah, I know where that is." Steve ran for the car, everyone following

"On our way." I said in to the walkie as I ran

_______

"I'm telling you, you're taking us the wrong way." Steve complained as we walked

"It's North. I'm positive, I checked the map." Dustin said

"You do realize Skull rock is like a super popular make-out spot?" Steve asked

"What would you know about a make-out spot? You go and make-out with the air?" I crossed my arms and looked up at him
