🔥CHAPTER 10🔥

*-*Third Person's POV*-*

Meliah wasn't even surprised to find Lucas at her door once again, the very next day. "You want to ask another favour?" She asks, having the Sinclair boy nod his head at her. "Fine, let's go." She says, putting on her shoes, Lucas was surprised with how fast she agreed to it.

Billy was in his living room, working out, with the TV playing in the background when their doorbell rang, but he just ignored it completely.

"Twenty-one. Twenty-two."

The doorbell kept on ringing, the sound starting to irritate him to no end. "Max, are you getting that or what?" He asks, throwing the weight on the chair Infront of him.

"Okay!"

"Swear to God, Max!" He yells, as the doorbell kept on ringing. Max came from her room annoyed with her stepbrother, as she went to answer the door, when she opened it, she found Meliah and Lucas who was peaking at her from behind the teenage girl's back, Max quickly closed the door behind her.

"What are you doing here?" Max asks Lucas in a whisper.

"I have proof." Lucas states, confusing Meliah of what he meant by having proof.

"What?" Max asks confused.

"Proof that what I told you was real, but we have to hurry." Lucas says, having the teenage girl realize what he was talking about. "Wait, you told her?" She asks in disbelief, Lucas looked away guilty knowing how much Meliah went through last year. "Yeah, look I'm sorry, but I had too, and Dustin and Steve need our help." Lucas tells her.

"What kind of proof?" Max asks, having Lucas only tell her she'll see if she comes with them.

Inside the house, Billy started getting suspicious since his stepsister was taking too long, he got up making his way to the door, when Max suddenly came back in slamming the door shut behind her.

"Who the hell were you talking to?" Billy asks, with a straight face.

"A very pretty girl." Max informs him, making him peek up at that information.

"A pretty girl?" He asks, not believing her. "Yeah, she's actually looking for you." Max says pointing at the door, walking around him, running to her room. Billy stared at the door, before he decided to open it.

Meliah stood there right infront of him, she was on his doorstep, he couldn't believe it. "What are you doing here?" He asked more aggressive than that was intended, seeing her expression showing shock, but he was scared what his father might do if he found out about her.

"Uhm, well I wanted to know if you wanted to hang out, but, you seem to be quite busy." Meliah says giving him a small smile.

"Yeah, I have to babysit." Billy states, staring at her, he wanted to tell her to stay, but his fear wouldn't allow that.

"Well, then, maybe next time I guess." She says, walking away quickly, something must have happened to make him act like a jerk again, is all she could think to describe his behaviour.

Meliah met up with Lucas and Max a few blocks away, when she asks, "So where are we headed now?"

"The junkyard."
