ALMOST THREE-HUNDRED-SIXTY-FIVE DAYS HAD PASSED.
Ever since William Byers was rescued, nothing felt real.
Alex Kane, despite herself and the way she seemed, was a liar.
Repeatedly, she lied; smiling or laughing as she did.
That night when Nancy Wheeler opened her fractured mind, told her the fears that lurked in her mind, she lied.
Everything in her was afraid.
From the moment everything commenced, she was terrified.
Terrified of what the boys had deemed the Demogorgon.
Terrified of that world.
Terrified.
So, although she lied, it caused a smile to sprout on her face.
And if she had to lie about how it looked comical, then so be it.
It certainly lightened the mood, but her heart still panged at the falsehoods.
Even if they were meant to calm her worries.
That wasn't the point; Alex wasn't quite sure of the point, however.
If one existed.
After everything was finally finished, she felt empty.
Vacant.
Arthur Walker barely glanced at her, unless something happened.
She preferred him to be more distant, anyway.
"So, you're in?" Jonathan's soft, quiet voice gently flowed into her ears.
Her attention averted to a hopeful, smiling Byers, who was leaning on his locker; fingers gripping the band of his bag in a nervous manner.
