Seeing and hearing Steve and his Voice, was something you were getting accustomed to. As long as you didn’t have to spend time with him, it was fine.
You wanted to spend the few free months after graduation simple. No chaos, no job, no responsibilities. In order to have that quiet break, you had saved enough money on your writing job you did for the library in school. This way you were able to spend your days reading books at the library and just living life.
Then Halloween came around. Your brother and his friends had „the best Halloween Costume Idea, ever!"
That's, at least, what they told you.
The four of them decided to all wear matching ghostbusters outfits. Dustin spent the whole evening talking about how great of a time they would have and how exited he was. He also went on rambling about how a red haired girl, named „mad Max“, went to school with them now.
It was very cute, hearing him talk about something that was going on in his life.
Since Dustin spent most of his time in the mall, he had stopped talking to you all together. Where he had been sitting on your bed, rambling about his school day before, he now went out with his friends. He spent his freetime eating ice cream all day and hanging out with Steve and Robin. You knew Robin a little. She had been in one of the classes you’ve had with Steve.
In school, Robin had always been a little too loud, a little too much, but also incredibly smart. Thinking of both of them working there, was something you couldn’t imagine. Robin and Steve were two complete different people.
„Smile some more Dusty!“ Your mom pleaded while trying to get Dustin to stand still. Before he left, your mom wanted to take photos of him and his costume. For photos, Dustin was always standing in your living room. Taking those “big moment” photos had become somewhat of a ritual. This time, he was posing with the costume, thumbs up, smiling as much as he could but the next moment, he was arranging the way the beige jacket fitted.
The photo session was cut short, when the doorbell rang. Dustin grabbed his proton pack and ran to the front door, where Jonathan Byers already waited for him.
„Hey young man, ready?“ Jonathan asked enthusiastically. He had promised to look after Will and his friends that evening.
You didn’t really know Jonathan. All you did know was that he had a huge interest in photography and liked to spend his time alone. In the last few weeks though, you had heard a rumour. He was supposedly often seen with Nancy Wheeler. This fact alone made no sense, as Jonathan and Nancy did not, at all, have the same interests. In no universe would they ever see each other. But then again, your brother and Steve Harrington had, somehow, become the bestest of friends. And from what Dustin told your mom during dinner, Robin also seemed to get along with him in some way. So, maybe everything was possible and life was full of surprises, you thought.
Dustin came back with his ghostbusters costume in the evening. They had collected sweets, although his bag was less full then the last few years. But there was something else pretty weird about your brother. Now, his costume was moving. You were sure it didn’t do that when he had left a few hours with Jonathan. When your mom asked him about the noise and the weird moving, he turned around from where he was standing in the doorway and smiled dramatically.
„Uh..“ pausing, he held up his Costume.
„ Look, I modified it.“ It immediately made a loud rattling sound and then, Dustin was laughing.
He was laughing so much, you thought it seemed fake. Maybe even panicked, but your mother didn’t seem to catch onto this because she laughed with him.
Your mother went into the kitchen, and Dustin immediately ran up the stairs with the proton pack in hand, still making loud noises and scratching sounds?
„Whatever he is up to, it is no good,“ you thought.
