she really was spectacular. and he really was a fuckwit, wasn’t he? she had been the best thing in his life, and he just. took her for granted, and pushed her away. like a petulant little bitch. there was no point in dwelling on what if’s, what’s done was done. but right now? it was hard. he didn’t want this to be it, but there was a good chance that it was. where would they be if he had done... if he had been better?

away from hawkins, most certainly. she might not be a successful rock star, he almost definitely wouldn’t wouldn’t be wanted.

would they be happy?

...he would be. absolutely. would andy?

...was she happy now? he hadn’t asked, but. he hadn’t felt the need to. and what right did he have? she had made it big, without him. she hadn’t needed him. and now for whatever reason, she was back home. she had proved whatever she needed to prove. to herself, to him... not that eddie had ever had any real doubt. she was always the best of them. the most disciplined.

laying her down on her bed, he took a sharp breath. he didn’t want to leave her. he really didn’t want to leave her. but he didn’t want her to get sucked into any of the insanity either. and if he stayed now, leaving in the morning... that would be even harder. and if she woke up before him? oh, that would be a fight.

although the weather reports kept showing summer was right around the corner, chrissy couldn't seem to shake the cold she felt from deep within veins ever since they'd left the upside down. it must have been nearing 70 degrees and still she tugged her jacket around her tiny frame just a little tighter, her big eyes fixated off into the woods behind the school like she was waiting for someone ( or something ) to approach.

Breaking down and coming undone It's a roller coaster kind of rush And I never knew I could feel that much And that's the way I loved you

is this all in my head ? - from chrissy?

     Max almost didn’t want to answer.. Unfortunately it was not all in her head. Vecna, he was relentless, and Chrissy was one of his victims. “--I don’t think so.” She simply said, Max wasn’t sure what she was or wasn’t allowed to say. When Lucas told her of the upside down, he swore her to secrecy. It wasn’t worth risking their safety. She had lost Billy to this monster, and she didn’t want the same thing to happen to Chrissy. -- but would keeping her in the dark prevent it, or only put her in more danger?
