It all starts with a dance ~ BYLER

Friends?

(Mikes POV; About 1 week later)

"I'm an asshole." I say to Stanley while he strokes my hair. We're laying down on his bed.

"I mean..." Stanley starts, not knowing what to say.

"I should've called him first, at least, you know." I whisper.

"Ok, can we not talk about your ex right now." Stanley says, smiling slightly but I can tell he's annoyed.

"Sorry, I just feel bad, that's all." I say, sighing.

"I know what'll make you feel better." Stanley says, smiling.

"Jesus, already, we've been together a week?!" I say.

"No!!! Not that! Jesus, weirdo. I'm talking about I've cream and a movie with the losers." Stanley says, giggling.

"Oh! Shit! Sorry I thought-"I say flustered, my face getting red.
"But how about we go just us?"

"Ya! sure! It's a date." Stanley says, blushing.

"Cool." I respond, my face equally as red.

"Cmon, let's go." Stanley chuckles.

Right as we're walking out, his phone rings.

"Oh, One second." Stanley says, running to the phone.

"Hello, Uris residence speaking."

"Is mike there?" The voice from the phone asks.

"Yeah, he's here."
...
"It's for you." Stanley says, passing me the phone.

"Hello?" I say into the phone.

"Mike? Is- Is that you."

"Yeah...Um, who is this?" I say, confused.

"It's- It's Will."

"Oh, um, hi." I say softly.

I miss him. I miss him so much. Just hearing his voice makes me want to cry.

"Um, so, I wanted to just talk to you really quick." Will says.

"What's up." I reply.

"I was wondering...I was just wondering if we were still friends?" He says.

"Oh-" I start, but he cuts me off.

"Because, you know, you're my- You were my best friend and, and I...I don't want lose you." Will continues, his voice breaking.

"Ya...Ya of course." I say, starting to cry. "You'll always be my best friend, Will... Ever since we met In kindergarten-"

"On the swings." Will finishes.

"You know, Will... One day, if we are both ever single... You know where to find me." I say smiling.

"Yeah...I'd like that." Will says, sniffling.

"Hey Mike, you coming?!" Stanley calls from outside.

"Yeah, One second." I say.

"Mike? You there?" Will asks from the phone.

"Yeah. Sorry." I say.

"Well, I'll call you later if you'd like..." Will says.

"Ya. That'd be cool." I say. "Um, Well, Bye Will."

"Bye mike." Will says, hanging up the phone.

"Hey, are you okay?" Stanley asks me.

"Yeah... I'm okay... Um, I'm gonna go to the bathroom before we go." I say

"Ya, sure." Stanley responds.

As soon as I get to the bathroom, I break down. I'm still in love with Will, and I can't believe I left him for Stan. I like Stan a lot, don't get me wrong, he is really nice and cute, but He's not Will.

"Mike, you okay in there?" Stanley says from outside the door. "You sound like you're crying."

"Oh, I'm fine." I lie. "I just miss...Hawkins."

"Oh, ok... Well, I'll be waiting outside."

"No, It's okay, i'm ready now." I say.

"Ok! Let's go get ice cream."
