"So why did you all want to be dropped off to a store again?" Steve questions, Robin opening the RV door for them. Dustin and Suzie get out first, followed by Mike and Eleven then Lucas and Max.
"Lucas promised me bubbles since he didn't wear a dress." Max answers simply.
Robin and Nancy crack out laughing while while Steve just shakes his head. "Alright."
"Plus we just want to look around too." Dustin mentions.
"Alright, have fun and goodnight shitheads." Steve says, waving at them while Robin shuts the RV door, him going to drive off.
Max goes to jump on Lucas back, him holding the back of her legs while he makes his way inside of the store along with the others. Max wraps her arms around his neck, her chin resting on her arm while Lucas leads them down the kids aisle to where the bubbles are located.
"Alright." Lucas says while grabbing the big size bottle of bubbles in the purple bottle. "No using these all up the same night we got them."
"No promises." Max smiles.
Lucas shakes his head while smiling, going to make his way to the checkout place, putting the bottle of bubbles on the table.
"Hey what's up Sinclair!" Henry, one of the guys that use to be on Lucas basketball team says, fisting Lucas hand in a greeting manner. Henry has always been nice to Lucas even when he wasn't popular, plus he was always a big help to Lucas and he always appreciated him for that.
"Hey Henry." Lucas smiles.
"What's going on Max." Henry greets while scanning the bottle of bubbles.
"Hey Henry." Max says while jumping out of Lucas back, patting her hands against the counter.
"And since I am so awesome I discounted it by fifty percent. You just owe five bucks." Henry mentions.
"Awesome." Lucas says while handing Henry a five dollar bill from his pocket. Lucas takes the bubbles and hands them to Max. "Go to town."
Max smiles before she goes to run outside, Lucas seeing her sit down on the steps while opening up the bubbles, beginning to blow some out. After Suzie and Eleven check out some bubbles as well as yooyoos and glowing bouncy balls they all go out there with her including Mike and Dustin, all of them beginning to play around.
Lucas smiles, leaning his arm slightly on the table while watching Max have fun, seeing her blow bubbles along with Suzie and Eleven. She looks happy, content. Lucas knows she never had much of a childhood, so he enjoys these times where she does things like a child would do, just completely letting go and having fun and playing with things a child would. He adores it, when she gives him those sweet puppy dog eyes while flipping her body lip, how she skips around while blowing bubbles, and how she sometimes pout when she doesn't get her way.
"So how have things been going Lucas? Everything done with the whole court thing yeah?" Henry questions while leaning on the counter.
"Yeah all of that is done away now." Lucas mentions.
"Good, Frank is a douche. Chad as well but I'm glad he came around." Henry says.
"Yeah I'm glad he did too." Lucas nods.
"I'm glad you and Max are happy now. She seems a lot more happy." Henry says.
Lucas nods while smiling, seeing Max laugh and point at Dustin while he fails miserably at the yoo-yoo. "Yeah me too."
"Do anything fun today?" Henry questions.
"Yeah. Did you hear Hopper is getting married?" Lucas questions.
"Yeah man I heard he purposed to Joyce at the party a few months ago. I always miss all the good stuff because of work." Henry says.
Lucas laughs. "Yeah well me and everyone else went to get clothes for the wedding. The girls, us."
"That sounds fun, find a good suit?"
"Definitely did. Leather."
"Oooo leather is good." Henry nods.
Soon enough Mike makes his way into the store again. "Lucas your girlfriend is purposely trying to blow bubbles in my eyes." Mike mentions.
Henry laughs. "You know out of all of you guys she messes with you the most."
"Exactly!" Mike says.
"That is just their relationship." Lucas says.
"Yes our relationship is her messing with me and me trying to seek safety by letting Lucas know." Mike says.
Lucas laughs while shaking his head, Mike and Max have the most 'sibling to sibling' type relationship ever. They always scold each other, they always mess with each other and always fight with one another. But at the end of the day they both love each other and will do anything for one another. "I'm sure it's not that bad."
Max makes her way into the store, holding the bottle of bubbles in her arms. "Whatever he is saying it's not true!"
"Really? I was just saying how amazing you are." Mike says.
"Oh."
"If you even were! Ha!" Mike says, quickly running out of the store.
"Oh just wait Mike!" Max says before running out of the store, going to run after Mike while still holding her bubbles.
Henry and Lucas both laugh. "Yeah he better watch out." Henry mentions before turning to Lucas. "So when is the next time you're joining the boys for practice?"
Lucas looks over at Henry. "I graduated."
"Yeah but that doesn't mean you still can't come to their practices." Henry says. "The boys on the team love you, Frank is the only douche."
"Yeah I don't think I should be there when Frank is there." Lucas says.
"Then we'll make sure Frank isn't there. Come on just to visit and to show us your moves. Remember you lead us to another championship." Henry says while lightly slapping Lucas chest.
Lucas smiles, he fully well remembers that memory. It was a fun time, and he really wouldn't mind going back to reminisce on those times. "Alright why not."
"Yes! So sometime next week?" Henry questions.
"Sounds good."
"Yes!" Henry exclaims while pumping his fist.
"Alright well I'm going to go. Have a goodnight Henry. See you soon." Lucas says.
"Bye Lucas see you soon man." Henry waves.
Lucas makes his way out of the store, putting his wallet back in his front pocket. "Alright we all ready?"
"Yes."
"Yeah."
"Yep."
"No."
Lucas turns to Max, seeing her wear a light pout on her face. "Mike made me drop my bubbles!"
Mike's eyes widen while he throws his hands up. "I was trying to escape from having my eyes burnt."
"And that cause me to drop my bubbles!"
Eleven and Suzie both laugh, Dustin only shrugging his shoulders.
"Well at least I'm safe now." Mike says.
"Are you sure about that?" Max questions.
"I'll be right back." Lucas says, going back in the store and getting another bottle of bubbles.
"More? Did she use up all of them?" Henry questions.
"No she dropped them." Lucas answers.
Henry laughs, going to wave his hand. "Don't worry about it, it's in the house."
"Thanks man." Lucas says while pumping his fist before making his way to the door. "See you next week!"
"See you next week!" Henry confirms.
Lucas goes to give the bottle of bubbles to Max, her face lightening up all over again. Lucas gives a soft kiss on her cheek, putting his arm around her.
"Dude you just signed my eye burning contract! Why did you supply her with more ammo?!" Mike questions dramatically.
"It's not even that bad." Max rolls her eyes.
"Yeah tell that to my red eye!" Mike says while pointing at his eye.
"Max no more blowing bubbles in Mike's eyes." Lucas says.
Max rolls her eyes but she gives in nonetheless. "Fine."
Mike gives a bewildered look. "I have been begging you for the past ten minutes to stop and you weren't giving in! Now you just boom say fine when Lucas tells you what I have been telling you for the past ten minutes?!"
Max nods while shrugging her shoulders. "Yeah pretty much." She answers, going to take the top off the bottle and beginning to blow the bubbles. Lucas shrugs his shoulders, going to pick up the now empty bottle of bubbles and throw it away before all of them beginning to walk home while the girls all blow bubbles.
"Today was so much fun, I cannot wait for the wedding." Eleven smiles.
"I know, I just know it is going to be amazing." Suzie mentions.
"Do they have a date set yet?" Mike questions.
"Not yet, but they did say they wanted to do it as soon as they could." Max replies.
"I am so looking forward to it! The theme, the dresses..." Suzie starts.
"Definitely the dresses." Eleven agrees.
"I didn't know leather could be so slick, I'm know starting a leather wardrobe." Dustin says. "Leather shirt leather pants leather underwear-"
"No please don't!" Mike quickly says.
Dustin only rolls his eyes, them finally making it to the house and the girls making it to the front yard. The girls go to run around while they blow the bubbles, all of them laughing and having a good time.
"You smile a lot more now." Dustin comments, him and Lucas standing next to each other while they watch the girls and Mike blow bubbles and play with yoo-yoo's. Lucas watches as Eleven jumps on Max's back, her holding out the bubble blowers in both hands and running to make them come out, Mike and Suzie running after them both.
"How can I not?" Lucas smiles.
"I'm just glad you're happy, no one likes to see a party member sad." Dustin mentions.
Lucas smiles at Dustin. "I am happy, thank you."
"Hey anytime man." Dustin says, going to grab a bottle of bubbles. "Shall we show them how it's done?"
"Let's do it!" Lucas laughs.
Dustin and Lucas both run towards all of them, Lucas going to jump on Mike's back almost making him fall, Dustin trying to help Suzie catch both Eleven and Max. They all laugh, tackling each other and playfully fighting over bubbles.
Lucas enjoys how hard Max smiles, how she laughs so hard when Mike falls on his face, how they both have a challenge to see who can blow bubbles the fastest. Lucas knows Max didn't have this in her childhood. Her childhood consisted of her always running away to different spots when her parents would argue so loudly, it consisted of her trying to stay away from her brother who always bullied her. It consisted of her always looking out for her mother whenever she had to work two jobs and she would drink away her sorrows.
Max didn't have it easy, she barely had times where she would be able to run around and have fun like this. Lucas is glad that she is able to just let go and have fun, being able to just be a child again today.
"Ah! She's doing it again! Save me!" Mike exclaims, quickly running away from Max while she tries to run after him.
"Get back here! Don't worry it feels great on your eyes!" Max says.
"No it doesn't!"
Lucas just laughs, seeing Max chase after Mike while he runs, Suzie and Dustin dancing with a bunch of bubbles around them while Eleven tries to tackle Max that way Mike can get away.
These are the times that they live for, times of happiness and content peace, times where they can unwind like this without having to worry about another life altering threat to consume their thoughts and hearts, where they don't have to fear what would happen the next day, where they can just finally be happy and live normal lives with each other.
Lucas always finds himself looking back at the hard times, the times where Max was in coma or when she was blind. Lucas feared that they would never have a normal life again, that everything is now to damaged to return back to at least a little bit of normal. Lucas is just glad that it did, he is glad that they all worked hard to survive and conquer and still make it through the hard times with recovering and the aftermath. Lucas thought he would never be able to change, never be able to read away the anger that he always felt inside of him, the sadness, the guilt, all of it that plagued him from going to sleep at night.
It is only Max that takes those thoughts away, those harsh feelings away. It is her smile, her laugh, her everything that just makes it all wash away and become unknown to the world. Lucas doesn't know how she does it, he knows Max would say the same thing when it comes to him, she has told Lucas the same thing.
He knows at the end of the day it is love, it is true love that makes all of the negative feelings dissolve away, it is love that keeps them together and it is love that keeps them strong. Lucas never knew how powerful love could truly be until he lost Max, he felt like he was just walking about but not truly living because Max is his life and he cannot imagine a life without her, there is no life without her.
"Lucas get over here and blow some bubbles!" Max says, motioning for Lucas to come on.
Lucas smiles, running over to her and picking her up. Max laughs, going to jump on his back and holding out the bubble blowers while Lucas runs around, letting the bubbles all go free. Her laugh is contagious, it makes Lucas laugh again, they all just run around, blowing bubbles and playing dodgeball together with the bouncy balls, Max definitely loving that game and trying to throw all of her balls specifically at Mike.
It was a fun day, it was a day that they will never forget and add it along to happy memories that they will always cherish forever and not let go. It is times like these that they cannot imagine not being together, times like these that they are so glad that they made the promise to not leave Hawkins and stay here because this is the town Will gave his life for, this is the town where they still feel Will here at, and they don't want to leave it for anything. Because despite all of the crazy mess that happened and occurred in this town, despite all of the evil and wrongdoing....
It is still their home and it will always be.

Max gets done lighting her last scented candle, sitting one on the bookshelf while putting the other one on the nightstand. The sweet smell of lavender and vanilla begins to fill the room, Max letting out a deep content breath.
Lucas makes his way inside of the room, closing and locking the door behind him. He wears just some blue basketball shorts and socks. He looks at Max to see her wearing his Hellfire shirt and some underwear, her hair up in a bun. "You love these candles don't you?" Lucas questions, going to sit down at the edge of the bed.
"I love the way they smell." Max replies. She goes to stand on her tippy toes to smell more of the vanilla scented candle on the bookshelf, the shirt rising more showing more of her skin. "It's so soft."
"Like you?" Lucas questions.
Max turns towards Lucas. "I'm not soft."
"Personality wise no, but you yourself are soft." He comments.
Max looks away while trying to hide the smile that creeps onto her face. "Well yeah I'm a girl you dork."
Lucas laughs lightly. "And your eyes grow all soft when I compliment you."
"They do not!"
"Do too."
"Do not."
"Yup they do."
"No they don't."
"Come here." Lucas says, going to pat his lap.
Max makes her way to Lucas, slowly going to straddle his lap. He puts his head in Max's neck like he always does, breathing in her smell while his hands slide underneath her shirt, feeling her soft skin underneath. Max sighs contently at the feeling of his warm hands softly rubbing up and down her back and hips, both of her hands going on his cheek while she lays her head on the top of Lucas head.
"Did you have fun today?" Lucas questions on Max's neck, letting his lips softly and ticklishly trail up and down the side of her neck.
Max lightly shivers, bringing his head closer to her neck. "Mhm."
"What did you enjoy about today?"
"The...the dresses and...the bubbles." Max replies in a breath, feeling Lucas softly kiss and linger his lips on that one particular spot that drives her crazy.
"Hmm. What else?"
"The...Mph.."
"The what?"
"Luuuccaaassss." Max pouts.
Lucas chuckles lightly, going to rub Max's back softly. "I also seem to recall that you came into my fitting room too. You know how hard it is to walk around with a bad case of blue balls?"
"You started it." Max mentions.
"I would hardly call what I did teasing." Lucas says.
"Yeah it was! You-" Max starts but stops herself, feeling a light blush creep onto her cheeks.
"I did...what?" Lucas questions with a smile. He knows exactly what he did, exactly to what made Max buck her hips to try and search for more before he pulled away.
"You know what you did." Max mentions while slapping him lightly on the chest. She fully well remembers, how his hand slipped under her underwear, rubbing soft circles on her clit before trailing lower and lower to her entrance way, letting his fingers softly prob-
"Thinking about it?" Lucas teases.
"No." Max answers, trying to hide the smile on her face.
Lucas laughs. "Wow you are such a bad lair." He says while turning Max around and laying her on the bed, going to lightly tickle her.
"No! Don't tickle me!" Max laughs, her legs rising and falling. "Lucas stop!" She laughs.
Lucas laughs, going to peck her softly on her lips. She wraps her arms around his neck to bring him in for a longer kiss, their lips moving in sync to one another's. His hands ride up Max's shirt more, going to pull it up over her arms. She goes to take off the shirt off her arms, Lucas letting his hands trail up to hers, entangling his hands into hers. He holds her hands above her head with his, kissing Max's forehead along with her cheeks and down to the sides of her neck.
Max lightly closes her eyes, tilting her head to the side to allow Lucas better access. No matter how many times Lucas does it, it just keeps getting better and better, she loves the way his soft full lips feel kissing each sensitive place of her neck and how his lips trail down her neck softly, making her shiver every single time he does it. Max goes to wrap her legs around Lucas waist, feeling him through his shorts.
His hands trail down Max's arms while he kisses Max down lower and lower, down her chest to the valley of her breast. He purposely kisses over her nipples, trailing down to kiss down her stomach. Max lets out a small gasp when she feels his lips on her thighs, slowly and slowly getting closer to her inner thighs.
"Lucas." Max pants, feeling his lips give that one kiss on her lower inner thigh. The shock that runs through her body is surreal, her going to take one of Lucas hands. Lucas continues to slowly, teasingly kiss up her inner thigh, the higher he begins to go the more Max feels herself go mentally insane, she knows her underwear is damp right now. Her clit begins to buzz and ache, her entrance beginning to clench around nothing. Max needs something and she needs it now. She goes to put Lucas hand on her core, her hand going over his to put more pressure on her core. Max's legs shake when his hand meets Max's core harder, a shaky moan escaping her.
"Lucas please." Max says barely above a whisper, she doesn't even realize when she opens her legs up more for him. He lets his tongue lightly lick at her thigh, going to move onto the next one, kissing down Max's inner thigh.
"Keep still." Lucas mentions softly on Max's thigh.
Max doesn't even realize that she is moving, now she relishes how much her thighs shake a little. "Lucas please..." Max can feel herself growing more wet and wet, and she knows Lucas can feel it too.
Lucas looks directly at her, his mouth getting higher and higher up her inner thigh, kissing, stroking her inner thigh. With every touch, every kiss and with the direct eye contact Max feels herself fall deeper and deeper into the cloud of pleasure.
Max completely looses herself when he lightly lets his teeth graze her inner thigh up higher, lightly biting her skin. "Fuck! Okay okay..." Max breaths, her back arching before looking at Lucas once again. "...you win, you win. Just please Lucas, just please...do whatever you want." Max gives in, already knowing what he is trying to do.
Lucas smiles in triumph, he knows it is a once in a lifetime thing to have Max give up on a challenge but Lucas will enjoy it while it lasts. He still lets his teeth graze up her inner thigh, seeing Max slap a hand against her mouth. Lucas can feel her thighs lightly shaking, knowing this is one of her sensitive places. He lets his hand apply more pressure to her core, going to rub his hand around her too, feeling how wet she already is.
One of Max's hands still rest on Lucas hand on her core while the other is on the back of his head. She holds his hand against her core, that being the only stimulation and somewhat relief she is getting right now. She light bucks her hips up, feeling his lips still on her inner thighs. Her little sounds are desperate, she tries to muffle them with her hand, not deciding if she wants it over her mouth or on the back of Lucas head.
"Lucas..."
"Hmm?"
"Please!"
"Please what?"
"Do something!"
Lucas smiles, it is actually cute how desperate and annoyed she sounds at the same time. Lucas decides he will give in, he goes to stand up and roll off his basketball shorts, leaving him bare. He next takes off Max's underwear, carefully sliding it off of her. He slowly crawls up Max, being sure to trail kisses up her body. Her hands finds his cheeks, bringing him up for a hard kiss. She grounds herself against his hardening cock, beginning to grind against it. Lucas goes to flick Max's nipples with this thumbs, Max letting out a soft moan in his mouth.
Their lips tingle after they pull away, Max going to pull his head towards her neck. His lips on her neck plus his cock grinding against her wet lips and clit sends her to another place, another good place. She wants to feel him inside, she wants to feel that full feeling again, feel him moving inside of her, twitching inside of her, rubbing inside of her. Max trails her hand down in between their bodies, Max going to grab the base of his cock and align it with her entrance, feeling his wet head rub against her. She moans softly, feeling Lucas thrust his hips to push inside of her.
It is heaven scent, the feeling never getting old. Max softly closes her eyes, wrapping her arms around his neck. She lets her feet go on the bed, opening up herself more for Lucas to thrust in deeper.
Lucas sits up, going to lean on his arms. That is when he begins to thrust into Max in a fast pace, barely being able to recover from the last thrust before he enters in again.
"Lucas!" Max blurts out in a moan, her hands gripping his strong arms, feeling some of his veins pop out. One of her hands feel down his toned stomach, her having a view of his length entering in and out of her. He puts one of her legs over his shoulders, going to thrust into her deeper, feeling her walls flutter around him in response. "Yes..." he hears Max say under her breath.
Lucas grips the bedsheets, the loud sound of skin slapping together being heard. Normally Lucas would be the one to try and keep quiet, he would at least try but not tonight. Tonight he doesn't care, all day he has been waiting for this moment ever since Max teased him in the fitting room, even ever since he teased her in the fitting room. Lucas knows she was waiting for this exact same moment as well, Lucas knows when Max wears particular things to try and gain his attention, his Hellfire shirt being one of them. He has always said he loves the way it looks on her.
With every thrust in Max lets out something in between a moan and a gasp, feeling Lucas thrust in deeper and deeper inside of her. She grips his arms, her nails digging into his skin. When Max feels Lucas tongue flick around her nipple her back arches in surprise, letting out a particular loud sound. One of her arms quickly wrap around his head, not wanting his tongue to leave. The electrical shocks running through her body are way too good to pass up, she doesn't want it to stop and neither does he. He wants to give Max everything, make her feel all the pleasure there is to feel. And judging by the way she dependably says his name in his ear, followed by incoherent phrases he knows he is making her feel all sorts of things.
"Fuck!" Max wails in pleasure, feeling Lucas hit against her special spot inside of her. The moan he lets out on her nipple sends vibrations through her body. Lucas mouth moves onto the next nipple, his fingers finding Max's clit and beginning to rub her in firm counter clockwise circles.
Max's head goes back, the back of her head almost going into the bed, her neck arching up. Her mouth opens wide but no sounds come out. Lucas lets his mouth and teeth graze up her neck, his lips meeting hers before she lets out a loud moan in his mouth, Lucas feeling her shaking under him.
"You okay?" Lucas questions on her lips.
Max nods her head repeatedly, not being able to say anything right now. She wants to tell him that she is close, that everything he is doing right now feels so damn good and even thank him for it, but her mind and mouth do not work together at this current moment. Her mouth opens and closes, and her mind is in a complete different world, not even with her right now. Lucas smiles, he knows what she is trying to say. He can see it by the way her eyebrows snit, the beads of sweat on her forehead, her beautiful sounds that she lets escape only for him.
Max wraps her arm around his neck, looking into his brown eyes. She hums in a moaning manner, trying to find the words.
Lucas feels Max clench and spasm around him. "I know, just let go. Let go."
And that is exactly what Max does, she lets out a moan she doesn't even know how loud it is nor does she care at the given moment. She releases around Lucas, her thighs and legs shaking evidently from the orgasm. Lucas can feel her clit even throb, Max feeling it swell up. Lucas rides out her orgasm, still thrusting into Max to chase his own orgasm.
He begins to rub Max's clit a little faster, loving the way it feels when she clenches around him like that. Max hands immediately go to Lucas shoulders, her moans becoming louder from Lucas touching her most sensitive place. "Lucas! Lucas please..."
"I'm almost there. Fuck just hold on." Lucas groans, feeling his thrust grow more sloppy and wild. After a few more thrust he finally releases with Max with a loud groan, going to lay on top of Max but being sure not to put his full weight on her.
She puts her face in between his shoulder and neck, enjoying his smell while feeling down his back. Max begins to lightly scratch his back, knowing that relaxes him.
"Please don't tell me we have anything planned for tomorrow." Lucas says after some time.
Max smiles, going to look at him and give him a soft peck on his lips. "We don't." She mentions.
"Thank goodness." Lucas responds.
Max laughs softly, wrapping her arms around his neck tighter, his warm body acting like a blanket for him. "What you have some plans for us stalker?"
Lucas smiles, it has been quite a few occasions where Max has teased Lucas to no end, if it was just going to slow to giving him so little and not enough, at the end it was fun but it was also torture, the fun kind of torture that is. He smiles wider, because he knows tomorrow since they do not have anything planned that is exactly what he is going to be doing to her. It is time to reverse the cards, turn the tables around and see the reaction, it is time to have his fun with this, and he cannot wait of the reactions he will get from Max. He knows she will be annoyed, but most of all....
It will drive her completely insane.
"Yeah. You won't be leaving this bed tomorrow."
