Y/n's pov

Steve, Dustin, Lucas, Max and I were currently walking down the dark train tracks at night, clad with jackets and flashlights and having previously fought a bunch of Demogorgon babies in a junkyard.

Max was walking up front with Steve and Dustin while Lucas and I walked behind.

"You're positive that was Dart?" Lucas asked, filling the silence that hung around us.

"Yeah, he had that exact same yellow pattern on his butt. Gotta be dart." Dustin replied.

"He was tiny two days ago." Max said.

"Yeah, well he's molted three times already." Dustin said.

"M-malted?" Steve asked, confused at his simple nerd terminology.

"Molted. Shed his skin to make room for growth like hornworms." I elaborated for the clueless high school boy.

Steve nodded his head slightly, but still looked a bit confused.

"So when's he gonna molt again? Lucas asked.

"It's gotta be soon." I said.

"Yeah, and when he does, he'll be fully grown, or close to it." Dustin said. "So will his friends."

"Yeah and he's gonna eat a lot more than just cats." Steve said.

Dustin froze as Steve said that and Lucas's eyes grew wide.

"Wait, a cat? Dart ate a cat?" Lucas asked, stopping Dustin and standing in front of him.

"No, what? No!" Dustin said, sounding very unbelievable.

"What are you talking about? He ate Mews." Steve said, confused as to why Dustin was trying to lie.

"Mews? Who's Mews?" Max asked, confused at the mention of Dustin's cat.

"It's Dustin's cat!" I shrieked.

"Y/n!" Dustin yelled at me.

"I knew it! You kept him!" Lucas shouted.

"No! No, I...no, I..." Dustin tried to think up another lie.

"He missed me, He wanted to come home." Dustin said.

"Bullshit!" Lucas yelled.

"I didn't know he was a Demogorgon, okay?!" Dustin finally said.

"Oh, so now you admit it!" I rolled my eyes.

"Guys, who cares? We have to go!" Max tried to end their bickering.

"I care!" Lucas shouted at Max.

"You put the party in jeopardy! You broke the rule of law!" Lucas said to Dustin.

"So did you!" Dustin shouted, pointing at the two of us with his flashlight.

"What?" Lucas asked.

"You told a stranger the truth!" Dustin shouted, pointing his flashlight in Max's face.

"A stranger?!" Max asked, now also furious at Dustin.

"Wow. What a nice choice of words, Dustin." I said sarcastically, defending Max. "Why are you such a little asshole to her?"

Steve rolled his eyes and wondered if he should just keep walking and if the herd of bickering children would even notice let alone follow him.

A sound in the distance peaked his interest, and he slowly walked toward the sound, ignoring the screaming match that was going on behind him.

"You wanted to tell her too!" Lucas said, continuing the fight.
