A/N: Heyo! I'm back!
So, I kind of made you guys wait a bit, but who cares? You're getting an update now fir this because this is season two! ...Okay, maybe not because I'm not the Duffer Brothers. I'm not even a brother! Fine, it's ReyEleven011's idea of season two which will probably not be as good as the great Duffer Brothers!
Okay, so this chapter will be focusing on the teens in the show and maybe switching off a bit now? I don't want to just focus on the kids because the adults and teens are just as important. Even though the kids are my favorite part because... MILEVEN AND FUNNY STUFF! Okay, shut up. I need Mileven or I'm going to die! But Mileven fluff needs to wait! *runs away and cries for about a million hours*
Here we go!
Nancy walked through the hallways in school, alone. Normally, she would be talking to her best friend, Barb, in the hallways. But now she couldn't ever since what happened last year. Barb had been abducted by the Demogorgon and had been taken to the Upside Down, where she was killed. They had never retrieved a body so there was no funeral and everyone in the town believed she ran away due to a cover the government made. Nancy wished that she could tell everyone what happened to Barb, but she couldn't. She had sworn to keep it a secret from everyone. Now she would have felt alone if not for Jonathan and Steve.
Steve was still her boyfriend after he helped her and Jonathan greatly. She really liked him and he seemed to have redeemed from his old ways. Nancy was glad because he only seemed to like girls to be able to sleep with them before everything changed. Jonathan was a different story. At first, he seemed like a creep to everyone in the school, including Nancy. But then she got to know him during the incident. They teamed up to find Will and Barb and to kill the monster. Now they were really good friends, but no one could replace Barb in Nancy's heart.
The teen opened up her locker to put her stuff in her locker for her first class. She looked over her shoulder, used to seeing Barb there, but no one was there. Nancy looked down and closed her locker, quietly. She looked down at the ground, memories of her best friend forming in her mind, both good and bad.
Nancy was broken out of her thoughts when the bell rang and she had to go to class. She walked off to her first class, but then got blocked in her path. There was a tall, buff man in the way. He had light brown hair and he was growing in some facial hair too. He was also wearing all black and he looked like he was a rebel kind of student. Nancy had never seen him before, so she guessed that he was new.
"Hello there pretty lady. Where are you going?" He asked her.
Nancy raised an eyebrow. "I have to go to class. Who are you? I've never seen you here before," she asked.
The man smirked. "The name's Billy. I just moved here from California," he introduced himself.
"Nice to meet you. I'm Nancy. Well, I have to go," Nancy replied, trying to leave. Billy grabbed her arm, preventing her from moving. She looked up him with a confused look before he spoke again.
"Wait, before you go, I would like to invite you to my party. It's on Halloween night and I'm inviting practically the whole school. Costumes are allowed and there will be plenty of fun. Here's an invite," Billy said, handing her a piece of paper. Nancy quickly glanced at it and shoved it in her purse. She shot him a quick smile before going off to class.
...
Later that day, Nancy was on the line for lunch. She kept on thinking about Billy and his Halloween party. She felt a little intimidated by him and she wondered if she should even go to the party. There were many reasons why. One, her mom probably wouldn't let her go. Two, she needed to be there for Mike just in case he had another nightmare or vision about Eleven. Three, she just didn't want to.
Once she got her lunch, Nancy walked over to a table where Steve and Jonathan were. She sat right between them and smiled at them. "Hi guys," she said.
"Hey Nance," they both said. Then Steve spoke up for himself. "Did you guys get this invite from that new kid? About the Halloween party?" He asked.
Nancy nodded at her boyfriend. "Yeah, but I don't know if I'm going," she answered.
"I'm not going. I'm not really one for parties. That Billy guy gives me some bad vibes," Jonathan said.
Steve nodded, but then he realized what Nancy had said. "What? Why don't you want to go?" He asked. Nancy sighed and stared at her lunch sitting in front of her. All she wanted was to just give a long speech on why she didn't want to go, but Steve wouldn't understand like Jonathan would.
"I just have a lot going on lately. My brother and stuff. The incident from last year had a huge effect on him. I just have to be there for him. That's all," she said. There was so much more she wanted to say. Steve had no idea that her brother was upset because of a girl. He just suspected that it was some trauma from the monster, which was technically a part of said girl disappearing and possibly dying.
Steve gave her a look. "Come on. You deserve a break after everything. I'm going and so is the whole school, mostly. You should go! We can wear a couples costume?" He said.
Nancy just shrugged. "I'll think about it," she said, "I also don't want anyone disappearing again like your party last year." She added that in because the last time she went to a party, it resulted in her best friend getting taken by a monster. She didn't want anything like that to happen again.
Jonathan then brought up a new conversation. "How is your brother doing, Nancy? Is he any better?" He asked.
Nancy just shrugged at her friend. "He's not doing any better. Well, when he went to the arcade yesterday with his friends, he seemed excited. But when he came back he looked like his glum self and went straight for the basement. He wouldn't come out until this morning when he had to go to school," she explained to him. Then she sighed, growing even more worried for her brother. "How's your brother, Jonathan?" She asked.
Jonathan sighed. "I don't know. He's acting more quiet than usual, which scares me. He won't talk to me or my mom though. When he came home from the arcade, he looked like he had seen a ghost or that monster. Which is impossible, right? We killed it. It's dead," he said. He was extremely worried about his brother. What he didn't bring up was that Will was sometimes in a zombified state when he woke up or just in the middle of the day.
Nancy gave him a sympathetic look and he gave one back. Both of their brothers were in trouble and they desperately wanted to help them. The only thing was, they didn't know how to.
A/N: Well, that was something!
I know not a lot happened in this chapter. At least I did some justice for Barb! This chapter was some filler and some setting up for later stuff. Such as Halloween where everything changes!
So, next chapter I'm still deciding. Should I go to Will and Joyce together? Should I go to Mike being emo because of Eleven? Should I do an Eleven chapter? Should I do the kids at school? WHAT THE HELL SHOULD I DO?! Let me know in a review!
I hope you enjoyed! Please review!
