Chapter four:
Confessions...... To The Wrong Person

"Only think about him on the weekdays and weekends,Only in the mornings and evenings,Only when I wake up and sleep in, oh my god"

"i don't wanna hurt her"

Nate had went to the Byer's house after school, which was something that occurred often. The two could just spend hours talking about anything and everything or nothing at all.

Nate was sitting in a spiny chair in Will's room, spinning around while throwing a baseball that he had may or may not of stolen from Steve's car this morning.

"so..... what's up with you and Max?" Will asked with an innocent smile, Nate stopped spinning in his chair and stopped throwing the baseball "there's nothing going on between us, she's new i wanted to show her around, be her friend. It's not fun being the new kid"

"so you just wanna be her friend? no make outs underneath the bleachers or anything?" Will questioned "i- i don't know, but it's not like she'll want much more after she hears all the rumors." Nate responded sadly keeping his eyes on his shoes

"don't be so quick to judge, besides it seems that you like her, and she doesn't seem like the type to be so quick to judge."Will responded "i don't like her, i just met her, besides i barely know her" Nate corrected "doesn't mean you can't like her"

Nathaniel was silent for a moment " ok, fine i might like her, but that doesn't matter i don't want her involved in the whole supernatural upside down thing. i don't want her hurt, and i don't wanna hurt her. i might want her, but that doesn't mean i can have her."

Will froze up at the mention of the upside down "understandable" Will responded "do you think that it's over?" He asked quietly

Nate shot him a sad smile "if i'm being honest no, i don't think it's over. It's been quiet for almost a year, but the gate was never closed and there's several portals to our world" Will nodded "you believe me right about the boy, about Zero?" Will questioned, he hated it, he hated that no one seemed believed him about the boy with yellow eyes,the boy that could produce fire from his hands, claws from his nails, and fangs from his teeth, and while it happened his eyes would glow yellow.

"i believe, i do. we faced one demagorgan and almost died. no offense to you, but i highly doubt that an 12 year old would be able to survive 100 or more of them, without
any help or protection." Nate responded

"what do you think Zero is?" Will asked, he had been trying to figure it out for a almost year, yet he never could. "you said he had claws,fangs and glowing eyes, so my first thought was werewolf, but wolves can control fire and you would expect him to have some type of hair growth, but you said he didn't. so i think the best bet might be a HellHound. But his name zero is like el's a number, a subject. So he might've been give his powers or something." Nate explained

" i think you might be right, there's no way that it's a coincidence."Will said

"Nate, Steve's here to pick you up" Ms.byers said entering Will's room, Nate nodded "ok, thank you for telling me Ms.byers, bye Will" Nate responded as he grabbed his backpack of the ground.

Joyce nodded as Will waved and Nate walked out house to Steve Harrington's car. Steve would normally give him rides to and from school, because they were neighbors and Nate's mom worked insane hours at the hospital and his dad was a managing partner at the only law firm in Hawkins. And he goes into work right after training is finished, so Steve offered to drive him and it's been that way for three years.

A/N: just in case you guys were wondering Zero is from my other ST book control. Also i just realized that none of my oc's get easy love.
