It was three days after El killed the Demogorgan and the bad men were finally gone so El could live her life normally like almost every twelve year old girl did. Everything was back to normal. Will was at home safe with His mom and Johnathan after his horrible experience in the upsidedown. Mikes mom found out about Eleven and after hearing her story she decided to let El live with them since she had no where else to stay. Mike let El take his room as he moved down to the basement which was now his room. El became close with Nancy she was like the sister El never had.
Nacy got back from Johnathan's house and ran down to the basement to find El sitting in her fort talking to Mike. Nacy kneeled down.
"Hey El would you like to come shopping with me to get you some new clothes?" Nacy asked.
El tilted her head in confusion
"Shopping?"
Mike looked at El in adoration.
"It's this place you go to and buy things to keep. In this case you get to keep new clothes." Mike explained.
El smiled. "Yes"
Nacy looked back at her and smiled "Ok we can go tomorrow!"
El nodded.
Just as Nacy exited the basement Lucas Dustin and Will raced down the basement steps. The boys looked at Mike and El in the fort together and they giggled.
"Awwwwe hey love birds" Dustin said.
"What?" Mike asked trying to pretend like he was confused.
Lucas looked at Mike. "You guys obviously like eachother!"
Mike really did like El but always denyed it.
She was perfect to him. Her short hair, her smile, her big brown eyes, and the way she talked so softly.
El was confused as to what was going on she just sat there beside Mike and hoped he would explain to her later as he always did.
Mike rolled his eyes. "It's not like that."
"Ok sure Mike. Keep denying it!." Dustin yelled.
"I bet they kiss all the time!" Lucas joked.
El was confused and didn't know what it meant.
"Guys he looks mad just stop." Will said quietly.
Mikes face turned red. Not from anger...he was blushing.
Dustin walked over to El and kneeled beside her.
"When did you and Mike start dating?" Dustin asked El while Lucas laughed.
"Dating?" El questioned with a very confused look on her face.
"It's when a two people love each other and one of them asks the other person to date which is where they kiss and spend lots of time with eachother and they call eachother boyfriend and girlfriend." Lucas explained while winking at Mike.
"Guys just stop!" Mike yelled.
"Fine." Dustin sighed.
"How about a game of D and D?" Will asked.
"Sounds good Byers." Lucas stated.
El got up with Mike and they all sat around the table.
El didn't know how to play D and D yet but she loved to watch.
After a very intense five hour game of D and D it came to an end. Johnathan picked up Will and Dustin and Lucas rode their bikes home. Shortly it was just El and Mike sitting at the table the boys had played D and D at. Mike went to get up and El tugged his arm. Mike looked down smirked. "Yeah?" Mike asked.
"Why were you so upset earlier?" Mike knew exactly what El was referring to and he blushed.
"Because...ummm" Mike suttered.
"Friends don't lie." El stated. Mike finally blurted it out. "Because I like you and the boys were kind of making fun of me."
El didn't quite know what he meant but she pretended like she did and smiled.
El walked upstairs to go to bed.
"Goodnight Mike."
"Night El."
They both smiled.
El was very confused and she saw Mikes face was red. She thought he was mad at her so she didn't ask what he meant. She was scared she'd anger him more.
I'll ask Nacy tomorrow.
El thought ask she walked up the second flight of stairs.
El got ready for bed and climbed in to bed in sweat pants Nacy has given her and a stars wars shirt Mike had given her. She couldn't sleep. She was too excited for her day with Nancy.
This is my first story and I'm kind of worried about it. Sorry it's kind of short and I hope I can continue this series. I have been trying to figure out how to use this because I'm new to it. I'd love some feed back thanks! :)
