Y/N'S POV:

I was sat on my swing, as I played music on my walkman.

Why didn't El come back?

A familiar curly-haired boy fills my vision.

''Dustin.'' I say.

''C'mon.'' Without any warning, he grabs my hand and pulls me with him.

''Where...?''

''To Mike's house. Then we are going to Lucas. And we'll find your girl.'' Dustin quickly says.

''What are you talking about?'' I ask.

''Come on!''


He drags me to Mike's house.

''Mike, remember this isn't your fault, nor Y/n's.'' Dustin begins.

''Yeah, it's Lucas's.'' Mike responds.

''It wasn't his fault either.'' Dustin defends.

''It wasn't his fault?'' Mike asks. ''So, you're saying he wasn't way out of line?''

''Totally. But so were you, and you too Y/n, and so was Eleven!'' Dustin replies calmly.

''You take that back.'' I scoff.

''No, you take that back! All four of you were being a bunch of little assholes. I was the only reasonable one.'' Dustin states. ''But the bottom line is you two pushed first. And you know the rule. You draw first blood...''

''No way in hell.'' I decline, shaking my head.

''I'm not shaking his hand!'' Mike quickly disagrees.

''You guys are shaking his hand!'' Dustin decides.

''I'd like to see you try to force me.'' I cross my arms stubbornly.

''We aren't shaking his hand.'' Mike says.

''This isn't a discussion. This is the rule of law!'' Dustin reminds. ''Obey or be banished from the Party. Do you want to be banished?''

''No.''

Dustin slings his jacket on.

''Where are we going?'' Mike asks.

''Where do you think? We're going to get Lucas. And then we're going to find Eleven.'' Dustin says.


We biked to Lucas's house.

I raised my fist up and knocked on the front door.

Lucas answers with a cold glare.

''What do you guys want?'' 

Dustin nudges both Mike and I.

''We drew first blood, so...'' Mike extends his hand.

Dustin nudges me once more.

I sigh before also extending mine out.

''Come in.'' He sighs, not accepting my handshake yet.


Lucas paces around his living room.

''Okay, I'll shake.'' Lucas decides.

A small smile grows on my face.

''On one condition.'' He adds as my smile fades. ''We forget the Weirdo and go straight to the gate.''

''Her name is Eleven.'' I hiss.

''The deal's off.'' Mike snaps.

''No!'' Dustin groans. ''Guys, seriously? Do you guys even remember what happened on the Bloodstone Pass?''
