I knock on the front door of the Hargrove’s house. I’m doing a project with Billy. Mostly because he is behind in the class and the fact our teacher assigned us together, but also because I am his only friend, and him mine. Besides the occasional get together with Steve or Nancy. Max opens the door and smiles when she sees me. I’ve hung with out with her a few times, usually talking about boys because she doesn’t have any other girlfriends except for that new girl that Sheriff Hopper adopted.
‘’Hi, Y/n.’’ She opens the door wider for me to come in.
‘’How you doing, Max?’’ She shrugs.
‘’As per usual. Sorry, I have to run, I’m going over to El’s house.’’ I walk in and she walks out. I close the door behind her and walk down the familiar hallway to Billy’s room. His door is slightly parted, but I knock anyway. I don’t receive and answer, so I walk into his room. I hear the water running in the bathroom, indicating that he is in the shower. I throw my bag onto his unmade bed, and take my shoes off. I lay on his bed, facing the wall, opposite of the bathroom; just in case he decides to saunter into his room butt-naked, as he has done before. I learned my lesson the hard way. The shower turns off and I hear shuffling as he gets out.
‘’Billy!’’ I shout to him.
‘’Y/n!’’ He shouts back. I chuckle at how he responds. He never responds with a ‘yes’, only my name.
‘’Please don’t come out here naked. I can’t deal with that right now.’’ I say as I blow the cigarette ash on the pillow by me head.
‘’You won’t ever be able to deal. I’ll take your breath away.’’ I roll my eyes and chuckle at his never-ending cockiness. I hear him enter his room, and open a drawer next to the door.
‘’How much of this project do we still have?’’ I ask him.
‘’Last few touch-ups. We should be done in time to hit the new movie they’re showing at the cinema. You can turn now.’’ I turn to see Billy with wet hair, a red button-up shirt that’s not even buttoned all the way,and jeans. His usual attire. I nod and sit myself up. I take out the books well most likely need for the rest of the project.
‘'When does Max get home?”
‘’Don’t know. Don’t really care. She’ll probably stay at that girl’s house, and I'll probably stay at your’s.’’ he tells me and sits across from me on his bed.
‘’Why aren’t you both ever here? Whenever I see Max, she’s leaving or just getting back from school before she leaves again, and you are almost always at my house. What does your dad think of that?’’ I say to him as I flip through the books. He doesn’t answer me, so I look up. I see his eyes looking upset and a little angry.
‘’Don’t ask about my dad.’’ He snaps. I look at him, but he doesn’t meet my eye.
‘’Sorry. I shouldn’t have asked.’’ I apologize, not knowing what kind of nerve I hit. I have never really asked him about his home life. We usually talk about music, or movies. We don’t talk about stuff that is too personal for him, as whenever I try, he shuts me down.
‘’No, I'm sorry. I shouldn’t snap. Ready to get started?’’
‘’That’s okay. I’m going to grab some snacks and something to drink, that way I don’t get too bored with you, Hargrove. Want anything?’’ I lightly smile, trying to even out the tension.
‘’Uhh, no. I’m okay. Thank you, Y/n. I’ll start setting us up.’’ I stand up and walk into the kitchen to see what food they have. They probably don’t have much, since they are never here. I hear the front door open and close behind me. I look to see who it is. It’s a man that I have never seen before. I assume that it is Mr. Hargrove. I drop the bag of chips from my hands and walk over to him. He looks like he is in a haze, but I still walk to him.
‘’Hello, sir. I am Y/n. I’m a friend of Billy and Max.’’ I stick my hand out for him to shake. He looks at it but doesn’t take it.
‘’They don’t have friends. But, I could get used to you being here more often. You’re a pretty one.’’ I smile lightly, accepting the compliment, assuming that he is saying pretty for me to be with Billy.
‘’Oh, its nothing like that. We’re just friends.’’ I tell him, even though I do wish that was different. He comes closer to me, but I scoot back a little, not liking has advancements to me.
‘’I guess that’s good then.’’ he quickly comes to me and holds me against the wall. He tries to kiss me, but I put my hand where his lips are quickly coming to my face. I use my other hand to try and push his body away, but I’m not strong enough. He bites my hand, and covers my mouth before I can scream in pain. He holds both of my hands with one of his, and the other covers my mouth. My eyes are very wide, as I scan the things around me that I could use to get Billy’s attention. He removes his hand so he can try to kiss me again. I quickly use this to my advantage.
‘'Billy!’’ I scream. His dad looks at me and slams me to the wall, making by back and neck shoot up with pain. Billy comes running out of his room, and his eyes widen when he sees me pinned to the wall by his dad. He runs over and shoves his dad off. I fall to the ground, and try to regain my breath as I feel like I was holding it for minutes. I now notice the tears that are falling down my face, rapidly being replaced by new ones. Billy gets a few punches in, mostly because his dad is in shock.
His dad finally gets a punch in, and it makes Billy fall to the ground. I see the blood falling from his nose. His watery eyes look at mine quickly before he gets back up. His dad punches him again and shoves him to the wall. He pucnhes him in the gut a few times, and Billy loses his breath. I can’t keep watching him get hit. I pull myself up, my spine shooting pain through my body. I see a picture on the wall near me. I grab it and hit Billy’s dad to the back of the head. He doesn’t seem fazed, and Billy looks at me with most concern in his eyes. His dad doesn’t move from holding Billy, but he uses the back of his hand to smack me across my face. I bite my tongue, and fall to the ground. I can feel the stinging on my face, and I already know a huge welt is going to form under my eye. I lay on the ground, and sobs rack my body, both from pain and the feeling of just being assaulted. I hear Billy scream, and I hear them shuffling around before I hear nothing but Billy’s pants. I open my eyes to see Billy standing over his now unconscious dad.
‘'Y/n, I’m so s-sorry.’’ He comes over to me, and I see that his eyes are glassy. His hands cup my face and wipes my tears. His arms wrap around me for a minute of just me crying and trying to calm ourselves down.
He helps me up and we walk past his dad before going to his car. He helps me into the car, and I hold my cheek where I feel it swelling. He notices and quickly runs back into his house before coming out with a bag of frozen peas. I look at his face and see how swollen it is almost everywhere. I’m surprised he can still see.
‘’You need it more than me, Billy.’’ I tell him.
‘’I’ll be okay, sweetheart. Your face is much prettier.’’ He puts his car in reverse and I accept the peas and sigh in the relief they give me. He speeds to my house, and we go inside, thankfully my parents are out of town for the week, and I am the only child. I help him to my room’s bathroom. He sits himself on the counter, wincing as he does so.
‘’Are you okay?’’ I ask him quietly, looking into his eyes.
‘’No.’’ He says and starts crying. This is the first time I have seen him full on cry. I pull him into me, trying my hardest not to hurt his face. His body shakes as he tries to contain his sobs. ‘’Y/n, I’m so so sorry that you got dragged into this.’’
‘’Billy. I’m okay. You saved me. You saved me from your dad. I’m okay.’’ I feel my own tear fall down my face, but not from physical pain, but pain from the pain in my heart for Billy.
‘’I can’t believe he got so close to you. That he, that he touched you. He got so close to the person that I am realizing I love, and I was trying to pick which record we were going to listen to while we finished up our project. What jacket I was going to wear to the movie tonight so I could give it to you when it got cold in the cinema.’’ I pull back and look at his face, realizing he just said he loved me. He realizes too, and I see his eyes go wide. He blushes from what I can see from the bruises now forming on his face. I lightly grab his head and softly kiss him, not wanting to hurt him too much. He grabs my waist, pulling me closer to him. He deepens our kiss, but I pull away before we can get too far.
‘’I love you too, Billy.’’ He smiles and I smile back at him. ‘’Now I need to clean up your cuts.’’ I grab the cotton balls and rubbing alcohol to clean his face. I dab it on lightly, and he winces from the burning of it.
‘’Dang it, that burns, Y/n.’’
‘’I know. I’m sorry, but it will help in the long run.’’ I finish off with his face, and move down to his stomach. I lift his shirt off over his head. I see the lightly bruised stomach. I run my hand over it, getting distracted by his abs.
‘’Like what you see, Nurse, Y/n?’’ He asks, getting my attention. I look back up at him, seeing him smirking. I roll my eyes, and lightly push his shoulder. He kisses me again, rougher, not really caring about his face too much. I once again pull away, and he groans in annoyance.
‘'You’re all done. Let’s go catch that movie, yeah?’’
‘’I don’t care about the movie anymore, Y/n.’’ He jumps of the counter and holds my hand as we go into my room.
