Night weighed heavy over Hawkins. After the frantic, bloody clash with the Demogorgon at Joyce's house, Jonathan and you took refuge in you's home, searching for somewhere safe, far from the Upside Down. Moving quietly, Jonathan slipped in through the bedroom window, his breath still uneven from the adrenaline. Without a word, he took a blanket and pillow from the floor, settling onto the cold boards while you retreated into the warmth of the bed. The silence grew thick, broken only by you's fearful whisper, asking if the creature could come back. Jonathan, his voice soft but steady, tried to ease those fears, offering to sleep right beside them if it would help them feel safe.
