in which mike and eleven reunite in the school gym. ———————————- november 1st, 1984
elevens pov:
i walked into the building. i heard mikes voice! i followed it. he was in the gym with...
another girl?
"i don't see any tricks. you're just going around in a circle" i heard mike say.
the mysterious girl replied with "if it's so easy, you try it." in a sassy toned voice. does he like her?
i peaked around the corner and continued listening to their conversation.
"no!"
"why not?"
"i don't know how!"
"so then you admit it's kind of impressing"
i started walking forward.
i then heard mike say something. "i think if i spent like, all day practicing i could do that."
"i would give you a million bucks if you could" is all the girl said. okay. i have come to conclusion that he likes her! who fights like this?
"okay you're making me dizzy, please just stop"
"i'll stop once you let me join your party"
by then i was completely peering through the gym door.
"come on just stop!"
"its a simple question. am i in or out?" the girl said. what is she talking about?
i looked at mike. he was so cute, i could look at him all day-
did he just smile at her??!!
SHE SMILED BACK!!
i've had enough! i used my powers and flipped her off her board.
i look up.
"jesus! are you alright?" i heard mike say and he held out his hand.
"yeah, yeah, i think so" the girl replied.
and she grabbed his hand.
and he pulled her up.
they continued talking but i wasn't focusing on the voices anymore.
i just started crying and ran away.
i ran out of the school.
but wait.
i think i hear my name being called.
i turn around, and sure enough, it's mike!
he turns his head and we lock eyes feet away.
we run towards each other, smothering each other in a hug so big we both fell to the ground.
after a couple of minutes of just tears, i spoke.
"who was that girl you were talking to?"
"oh, her names max. but don't worry. she's not our zoomer" mike said as he gave me a reassuring smile.
"so you don't like her?" i said, hoping for the answer to be no.
"nope. only you." mike replied.
i cuddled up and laid my head on his chest.
"cool"
"cool."
word count: 400 a/n: ugh i don't like this one but probably bc it's 1:43 am rnand i just speed wrote this. so gn. it's not as good as it was in my head. fun fact: the conversation between max and mike is the things they actually said. stranger things season 2, episode 3 'the pollywog', 43:20. fact check me :) i had to rewatch that whole part and pause and stop to write it. but bye loves <3 -sara😁
