"I heard you got a new neighbor."
"That's not even the best part- she's a total babe." Dustin gave a suggestive wiggle of his eyebrows while Lucas frowned. "You'd think a walking slice of pizza was a total hottie too." Dustin scoffed before smiling widely. "I'd marry it if it had extra pepperoni."
"What's this total babe of a neighbor look like?" Max inquired as she walked beside Dustin and Lucas. "She's got shiny blonde hair and ocean eyes." Dustin mirrored a lovesick puppy while Max scoffed and Lucas elbowed his arm. The trio managed small talk as they neared Mikes locker. "What are the plans? The usual spot?" Dustin inquired while Mike and Will greeted them. "What is she doing here?" Mike hissed as he zoned in on Max who could only glare back. "She's tagging along, that's okay right?" Dustin questioned. Mike opened his mouth to retaliate when another voice broke off his attempt. "You're blocking my locker." The group turned to face the source of the stern tone only to be faced with a girl befitting of Dustin's description. "It's her." Dustin squeaked. "Are we just gonna gawk all day or what?" The girl glared fiercely causing Lucas to bump into Max as he moved from in front of the locker. "Hiya neighbor." Dustin greeted while quickly smoothing down his curly hair. The girl only spared him a glance as she stuffed her textbook for biology into the holding area. "I suggest the next time you want to call impersonating a pizza guy, change your voice." She commented with a lift of her brow before slamming her locker shut.
"Really a pizza guy?" Mike scoffed with a roll of his eyes, Will could only stifle a laugh at Dustin who threw his hands up in the air. "I was trying to be suave- and appealing." Max snorted in disbelief. "How is being a pizza dude, suave?"
"Look all I wanted was her name, don't shit on my parade."
"Well did you get it?" Will piped up. "No, he didn't. He barely managed a pick up line before choking then hanging up." The girl retorted sending a sly narrow of her eyes his way. "Look, in my defense- I produce a more than average amount of saliva and-"
"Let me save you the half ass explanation your about to give to save what little ego you have left. It's TJ, plain and simple." The blonde, TJ sent a cross look at each of the kids before shoving past them, her silver boots making a faint thumping sound before she stopped to peer over her shoulder. Eyes piercing of hidden secrets.
"See ya' later, losers club."

Hello! This is my second story and definitely a treat for everyone who has supported me and Sciamachy~ I know this first chapter is short but I at least wanted to start on it so the rest of the chapters flow more easily.
I know in the series, Stranger things take place in 1984 but I feel like it's more advanced than that year so I decided to switch the year to 1988.
And something else to its original year of 1986, can you guess what that is?
