Chapter 8: •Chapter Eight•
"I feel like death." Elena muttered as she got out of the backseat of Billy's car, leaving him alone on the backseat. "Same." He muttered, rubbing his eyes as he lit up a cigarette for Elena and then one for himself. She thanked him with a nod before she sat down onto the seat that was now free.
"So are we still all good?" She asked, cautiously while raising an eyebrow. "We're still good." He grinned, wrapping his arm around her neck and grinning at her.
"So we slept half of our morning classes through, what do you think about skipping and getting breakfast somewhere? My treat." Billy asked grinning. "I'm starving! But let me drop off my car at my house then we won't have two cars. You know the environment." Billy nodded while Elena got in her car and both engines howling loudly when they started driving.
Elena dropped off her car in her driveway before she came over to Billy. "I'm gonna change real quick, make myself presentable. Do you want another shirt?" She asked as she leaned into the window. "Oh, getting all dressed up for me?" He smirked. "Only for you!" She shouted for him as he watched her going to her door.
Luckily everything went smooth without her dad asking or laying fingers on her, he was well knocked out on the couch.
Elena changed into a pair of high waisted jeans, tucking her shirt only in the front into it. The black belt gave a cute contrast as she put on some white shoes. She was still bruised from the previous events and her body still ached. But she certainly didn't care.
Elena put on some makeup, making herself look more alive. She brushed her hair out and putting it in a proper bun.
The she kneeled down and got a box from under her bed.
'MILAN'
Neatly written on top of it. And then she opened the box she hadn't had opened in a long long time. There were photographs and letters, notes, a dress shirt and a hoodie and a perfume which he always used. Elena pulled out the button up and held it to her nose. It smelled like the perfume he used to wear and it took her everything not to tear up.
And she knew Milan wouldn't mind Billy wearing it. And it was a huge step for her to get it out and actually decide to give it Billy to change into. But she liked Billy and she knew he wouldn't ruin it.
She sprayed some of the perfume on it because it definitely smelled better than Billy's cheap perfume.
"That fits perfect, whose is it?" Billy asked as he buttoned up until the last two buttons. "It was my brothers." She said, smiling slightly. "Are you sure that I should wear it?" He asked hesitantly, ready to take it off again. "Hundred percent. Milan wouldn't mind and I don't mind either." Elena smiled getting in the car, enjoying the smell that filled the car when Billy entered. "Except you ruin it, then I'm gonna be real mad." "I won't, pinky promise." He smiled, feeling honored to wear the shirt. "Pinky promise." She repeated after intertwining her pinky with his.
"Where do you want to eat?" He asked as he drove down the street, the car purring loudly. "I don't know. You in the mood for pancakes?" "I'm always in the mood for pancakes." He grinned before he drove into the parking lot of a diner.
Soon they were seated and both of them ordered chocolate chip pancakes and two milkshakes. "We love a good dose of diabetes." Elena grinned as they got served. "Always." Billy said before he started digging.
Elena had to laugh loudly as she saw where the whipped cream got onto his face. God, he looked more than cute, his hair was a mess and made him just look a lot more cute.
And now Elena fully realized, she was falling and she was falling .
"Where's your mind at?" Billy asked raising an eyebrow. "Nowhere and everywhere." She grinned before finally digging in too.
"Food coma." Elena groaned as they sat down in Billy's car. God had they stuffed themselves. "What do you wanna do now?" He asked, as he turned to her. "Whatever you wanna do." "So I wanna fu-" "BILLY!" Both of them bursted out laughing. "I'm joking, don't get your panties in a twist." He grinned. "Who said I was wearing any?" She smirked. "Now you're just a tease." He laughed and shook his head before starting the car.
Billy was weirded out by himself. Normally, when a girl flirted like that not even 10 minutes later he'd fuck her in the back of his car. But he didn't had this to this with Elena, which was strange for him. He actually just wanted to enjoy the time with her instead of a hit and go.
Billy pulled up to the school after Elena had informed him she'd need to pick up her sister from school. And he suddenly remembered that he had to pick up Max too.
When the group, which consisted of Steve, Nancy, Jonathan and the kids got out of the building, all of them stopped in their tracks. "Am I hallucinating?" Steve asked Jonathan who just shook his head. "Elena and Billy." Was the only thing Dustin's mouth escaped as they looked at them, the way they laughed and suddenly seemed so close.
And now suddenly for the group everything made sense. For Max it made sense why Billy was only moping around yesterday and for everyone it made sense who she meant with the one she hurt. And for the three oldest it made sense for who she was developing feelings.
They all approached them. "Can I steal her real quick?" Nancy asked Billy but before he could answer she already dragged Elena from his hood and behind her.
"You and Billy?!" Jonathan, Steve and Nancy said in shock as they dragged her around a corner. "We're not together can you all chill?" Elena asked, already annoyed. "You have feelings for him!" Steve almost yelled, getting punched in the shoulder by Nancy. "So you talked to him last night, right?" Nancy asked and Elena only nodded. "How did it end? And why weren't you in school?" She asked as if she was her mother. "I explained everything to him, we made up. Then we got drunk and we slept in his car." "Did you guys sleep or " Steve asked grinning, wiggling his eyebrows. "Gross, Harrington." Elena said, making a face. "No, we Like normal people." She said shaking her head. "You know you could've told us." Nancy said almost offended. "I know you all don't like him, but he can be a real sweetheart-"
They heard a yell and instantly the three of them jogged back to Billy, who held Lucas by his straps on the bag against his car. "Billy stop you moron!" Elena said, scolding him like a child. He looked confused at her as she came over. "Leave your hands off the child, goddamnit! You're a grown ass man." She said shaking her head. "Fine." He muttered letting Lucas go. "What the problem anyway?" She asked now Billy directly. "He and Max are dating." "So what? Let your sister have fun. If she gets hurt, beat his ass I don't care, but not now Alright? You'll only scare him off and hurt your sister." She said as she sighed.
"He listens to you?" Max asked shocked as Billy got back in the car. "Apparently." She shrugged grinning. "God, he must be deeply in love with you. He doesn't listen to ." Max said before entering the car and going to the backseat next to Emilija.
And Max's words branded themselves into her brain, and respected like a broken record over and over.
