Andie hands clasped the steering wheel as she trembled, her thoughts consuming her as she recalled what took place moments ago.

Her eyes frantically searching the bare parking lot that surrounded her, she couldn't afford another presence to witness what she was about to undertake.

Taking a few deep breaths, Andie's eyes fell down to her wrist. She traced the delicate white vertical line scar that resided there.

No matter how many times she had tried to access the buried memory of how it exactly came to be there, she couldn't. Which was the same outcome as most of her childhood memories. She only held scarce memories of her past. The ones she could obtain were only filled with happiness. It all seemed to perfect, especially since she had powers that had no scientific answer to them at all.

She quickly reached for her cars metal handle and opened the door, the gravel crunching underneath her feet as she walked briskly across the abandon parking lot.

It was all too familiar. Series of metal structures towered above her. She came here when her powers became uncontrollable. It was an abandoned power plant, one that used to power the whole city of Hawkins.

Since the equipment was apparently outdated and the land it was once built on had too many violations they deemed it would not pass the new safety regulations, so they decided to construct a new power plant further down the road.

Little did they know, the plant still contained sources of electricity.

Andie still glancing to make sure no one was around, ducked through a small opening in a old rusted chain linked fence entering the abandon plant.

Pacing back and forth inside the concealed plant, Andie's breathes came in small pants. She was honestly scared of her powers. How she lost control of them so easily when her emotions spiked. However, she understood the basic functionality of how her powers worked, even if she didn't know how it came to be in the first place.

Somewhere in her life there was a trauma to nervous system, causing her brain to use what essentially amounts to electrical signals to set limiters on our abilities disappear.

She couldn't remember how it started, or even how she did it, but she could manipulate electricity. She could control the flow of electrons, which made all objects with a flowing power source at her mercy. Which explains the lights from earlier.

Andie held her hands together and focused on using her mind to produce a small stream of electricity from one hand to the other.

Her body could also be used as a current, the electricity causing no harm to her as she let it flow through her nervous system, and exit her body in small bursts. She had never tried to do anything large scale however, in fear of what it could do to her or someone around her. The more she accessed her powers, the more they became under control, and helped the sudden outbursts of her emotions came when they came under stress.

Andie practiced using her mind to try and project the new electricity from her hands to different objects around her. She was using the mementoes of earlier to fuel her anger.

The laughter. The crude remarks. Billy's stone cold expression and emotionless eyes that seemed to haunt her thoughts, after he had seemed so interested the night of the party.

Wiping the blood from her nose and tears from her eyes, Andie finally collapsed to her knees exhausted from her exerting herself so much. However, her attention quickly directed towards the abandon parking lot, just as she heard an all too familiar sound of a Camaro revving engine.

Jumping to her feet, Andie made a dash for the nearest largest structured mechanical tower hiding herself behind it.

"Hey Andie, I know your here. Your car just didn't drive itself." Billy voice echoed through the parking lot as she heard his heavy boots against the gravel.

"Come on Andie, care to explain what the hell happened at school?" Billy continued as she now heard what she only could've guessed as him squeezing himself through the hole in the chain linked fence, a mutter of curses following.

"Andie, I'm seriously getting pissed off at this hide and seek game your playing with me. Come out or I swear when I find you, I'll do something you'll definitely regret." Billy shouted this time with a hint of anger.

Andie rolled her eyes and stayed put, eager to find out what he could do to her that would make her so angry. She wasn't scared of him, or his threats.

"Andie." Billy shouted even more pissed off than before. "Dammit."

She heard his loud footsteps and then the rattling of the chain linked fence, and then the sound of his Camaro firing up and the fading of the sounds in the distance.

Quickly pulling her hood over the top of her messy brunette hair, Andie started lightly jogging to her car, squeezing through the chain linked fence in the process.

Grabbing her door handle, she was about to slide into her drivers seat when a pair of rough hands grabbed her waist and spun her around. Andie shocked expression came face to face with a very pissed off Billy, cigarette snuggled tightly between his lips.

"Billy...I" Andie was cut off with a small squeak as his hands tightened around her waist and in one swift motion, picked her up and lifted her onto his shoulder. One hand tightly wrapped dangerously high on her thighs.

"Billy Hargrove, put me down!" Andie protested as she hung upside down on his shoulder, grasping to his muscular back in attempt to steady herself. She had to refrain from watching his ass in those tight jeans as they carried her across the parking lot.

"No way princess, I told you if you didn't show yourself back there that I would do something unexpected." Billy said as he let out a puff of smoke.

"Where the hell are you taking me?" Andie shouted as she tried to wiggle her way out of his tight grasp.

"Kick me again, and I'll spank you." Billy said sternly.

Andie shocked and confused gave a small laugh. "I'm not five Billy, you can't just spank me." She continued to wiggle against his grasp.

Yet, just as the tip of her sneaker came to collide with his midsection in the chaos of her wriggling, a sharp and loud smack could be heard echoing through the parking lot.

"WHY YOU SON OF A..." Andie exclaimed as she slapped the back of his leather jacket.

"I told you what would happen, maybe eventually you'll start believing what I say to you." Billy gave a small laugh as he grabbed Andie's waist and placed her on the ground before tossing her into his passenger seat, and walking over to his side.

Andie rubbed her bottom and frowned as Billy slid into the drivers seat and started the engine. Billy gave her a smirk and slung gravel as he headed towards the road.

"Stop frowning doll, if you want I can pull over and make it up to you." Billy gave a small wink on her direction.

"In your dreams." Andie rolled her eyes and looked out the window.

"Princess, if you only knew the dreams I had about you." Billy murmured with a voice that gave Andie goosebumps.

"Knock it off Billy. Why the hell am I here? You couldn't give two shits about me earlier. Just take me back to my car." Andie huffed.

Billy car made a horrible screeching sound as he slammed on his brakes, and Andie scolded herself that she hadn't put her seatbelt on yet.

Billy took in another long drag before facing Andie.

"Let's get one thing straight. I didn't make those rumors. In all honestly I don't give a shit what they say, we both know what really happened." Billy said raising his voice slowly.

"Easy for you to say. You just moved here not even six months ago. You have no idea what it's like. Especially when your a girl, and people say such horrendous untrue things about you." Andie said folding her arms across her chest. She wasn't afraid to fire back against Billy.

"Why do you let them get to you? All these girls here are cows, and all the guys are pieces of shit who think there really something in this hell hole town. Hell, even the old ladies here are desperate enough to sleep with someone like me if it means they can have some more excitement in their pitiful lives." Billy kept rambling, more to himself that to Andie.

She could see the fury and hate behind his eyes. They held so much emotion. She wondered to herself how could anyone could become this way. Or better yet, who made him this way.

"Tell me how you really feel Hargrove." Andie said making her voice calm.

Billy ran his hand through his mangled curls and slung his arm to hang out the open window. Silence encasing the small interior of the Camaro.

"If it means that much to you. I'll tell them it isn't true." Billy said quietly, almost a whisper.

Andie slowly turned her head to face Billy's, slowly giving a smile.

"On one condition." He continued never breaking eye contact.

Andie felt her face turn back into a frown.

"Go on a date with me. Like a real one. I'll meet your folks and everything." Billy said with a small hint of playfulness in his voice.

Andie stayed silent, her gaze dropping to play with her fingers. She felt herself sigh, and then slowly nod her head in response.

"Only if you tell everyone it wasn't true." Andie said quickly bringing her hostile attitude back into the conversation.

"It's a date then princess." Billy smirked, then reached around the steering wheel to restart the car.

Andie gulped silently, wondering what the hell she just signed up for.
