This thing called love, I just...can't handle it
This thing called love, I must...get round to it
I ain't ready, Crazy little thing called love

Mike Wheeler and Jane "Eleven" Hopper were hanging out together at the apartment she shared with her adopted father: Chief Jim Hopper. They were singing and dancing around the room to the awesomeness that was Queen. Every Breath You Take by The Police would always be their song of course, but the young lovers were captivated by the beautiful music and the powerful vocals delivered by the immortal Freddie Mercury himself. This was all thanks to Jonathan Byers. He had introduced El to Freddie Mercury and she had fallen in love with the music. She played it for Mike the next day and although he had never really been into rock music, he was forced to submit to the awesomeness that was Queen. Plus, El promised to cover him with kisses if he said he liked them, so that was a very big help.

"There goes my baby. She knows how to rock 'n' roll. She drives me crazy. She gives me hot and cold fever. Then she leaves me in a cool cool sweat." Mike sang to his beloved as he held her close. El blushed as she leaned in and kissed him. They began making out as the two fell back on El's bed. They were madly in love and they had been ever since Mike found her on Mirkwood that rainy night. As the lovers continued to suck face, El's super-com made a sound of life.

"El...El, are you there, over?" Max asked as El reached for the super-com.

"I'm here with Mike, over." El replied. At first, El and Max had been at odds because El was fearful that Mike had wanted to be more than friends with Max. However, once it was clear that Max was crushing hard on Lucas, El apologized and the two girls ended up become thick as thieves.

"Quick, turn on the radio to 69.3, over." She stated. Mike got up and turned on the chief's radio to 69.3 MELM

"This is MELM 69.3 with the afternoon mind bender!" The announcer said. "I'm Graham "The Goof" Gutfeld and we have a special prize today. Queen will be performing at Indiana Farmer's Stadium this Friday night!"

"Queen is coming to Indiana?" Mike asked in disbelief. El's face lit up.

"I have in my hand, a six pack of front row tickets to the Queen concert in Indianapolis and all you have to do is call our hotline and answer this question." The Goof explained.

"Quick Mike!" El exclaimed as Mike went to grab the phone.

"Here is the question: what is Freddie Mercury's birth name? Before he became Freddie, he was..." Graham said. "And...DIAL!" Mike called the number as quickly as he could. The phone rang forever until finally, a miracle.

"This is The Goof on 69.3, what is Freddie Mercury's birth name?" Gutfeld asked.

"It's..." Mike stuttered as he struggled to remember what Jonathan had told him. Thankfully, it clicked. "Farrokh Bulsara! His name was Farrokh Bulsara!"

"What's your name?"

"Mike Wheeler."

"Mike Wheeler...you are correct!" The Goof exclaimed. "Before he became Freddie Mercury, he was Farrokh Bulsara! You have won 6 front row tickets to see Queen at the Indiana Farmers Stadium in Indianapolis this friday night!" Mike was ecstatic as El hugged him tightly and kissed him.

"We're gonna see Queen live in concert!" Mike said as they kissed passionately. El was so happy in that moment, she couldn't speak. She had wonderful friends. The perfect boyfriend, and she was going to see the greatest band ever live in person. Despite her past, she felt as if she was the luckiest person on the face of the Earth.
