Chapter Four {Edited}

It's been a month since then.

I've been spending some time with Hopper. He's been teaching me things I should know to prepare me for when I go to school. It's been pretty easy, besides history. I can't focus when it comes to that subject. Hopper was surprised at my knowledge for some reason, but I wasn't offended by it.

Speaking of Hopper, he adopted Eleven. Now she's officially Jane Hopper. He wanted me too but I declined, not because I don't like him, but because I already have something in mind. But even so, I still live with him.

Eleven told me that I can call her Jane or keep calling her Eleven. I didn't really like calling her Eleven because it already felt wrong to begin with. So now that she has a name, I will call her Jane.

I told her to call me Ten though, I'm not going to go by (Y/N) until I find her. My sister. If that memory of my parents fighting is true, Big R, or Robin, might be in more danger than she was before I left.

Max came up to me the day after she left and told me that she wanted Billy to know what happened. So Max, Jane and I went over to Max's place and told him the whole thing. He didn't believe us at first, but seeing how serious we were and our tattoos erased all of his doubts. Seems like he understands why Steve hangs out with a bunch of kids now.

I told Billy that he could talk to me if he needed to. Later on he talked to me about this guy named Neil I think. I never really wanted to memorize his name, who wants to remember someone's name with that kind of reputation. I wanted to burn him from the insides painfully slow and the feed him to some pigs. But I kept my cool. I think that's how you say it, it's a thing Lucas taught me.

I hugged him, even though the only people I let touch me was Will, Jane, Hopper, Joyce, and Steve. But he's like me, and just like me, he needed one. Now I treat him and Max like siblings or family, depends on how you see it. They do the same with me and Jane. Even though I haven't opened up to anyone, they know I will eventually.

Lucas is a cool friend, I went to his place a couple times. I think it's funny how him and his sister is always bickering. He's been teaching me a bunch of things to sound 'epic' or 'cool.'

Mike is different than the others. He doesn't trust a lot of people, just like I don't. But he doesn't seem to dislike me, just doesn't trust me yet. Max said that it was normal, which I can understand. Maybe giving him space will help.

I'm not sure though...

At first, Dustin and Steve were always hanging out together. So if I was with one, I was most likely with the other. But after a while, if anyone was hanging out with any of us, you probably wouldn't be away from each other. Their kind of weird, but in a good way. The only reason I haven't hugged Dustin yet is because it just never happened. But if he did want one, I wouldn't hesitate to give him one. 

Remember how earlier I said I have something else in mind about adoption? Well I was thinking of asking Steve. Maybe I can ask when he graduates. He might say no but I'm really comfortable with him. He's like the mother I never had. I'm pretty sure he hates it when I call him Mom, but it suits him! Dustin agrees!

Jane seems to always question what's on my mind. But I can't tell her, she might leave me and I'm too afraid. 

Will, out of everybody, he's my favorite. He seems to understand me. So instead of trying to get me to talk about these things, he gives me distractions. That doesn't mean he won't listen if I do want to talk about it. He just doesn't ask me to explain. There's this game that he likes called D&D or something like that, but I don't fully understand it. It seems really complicated.

My favorite game is Bingo. Every time I win he gives me a prize. Most of the time it's Poptarts. But there's other prizes I liked. Once, it was a box of crayons. At first I didn't know what it did but he showed me how and I've been fascinated with it ever since. I knew what drawings were, but I never knew how to make them.
