So, I had this almost written out before I posted the first chapter, hence the speed of updating. Since I write other stories too, updates can become more further apart, so I hope you'll bear with me if it takes a while for the next chapter to arrive.

Also, with this chapter, I'll up the rating to M. An explanation for why is in the author's notes at the end of the chapter.

Enjoy :)

Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters and I write for my own pleasure and that of the readers.

"Alright, boys and girls." Joyce announced. "Will can show you which train to take to get to the mall and Nancy and Jonathan will come with me to do the Thanksgiving shopping."

"Do we have to?" Nancy whined.

"Yes, you do." Joyce nodded resolutely, Nancy bowing to the inevitable. "As for you guys, be good and be safe."

The group piled out of the house, Joyce and the two young adults getting into her car to drive to the store. Will led them to the train station and after waiting a few minutes, the group got into it, sitting down on some free seats, El sitting in Mike's lap, her arm over his shoulder.

"How is school doing, by the way?" Mike asked his girlfriend, kissing her hand while she rested her head against his temple.

"Okay, I guess." El shrugged.

"She's doing amazing." Will smiled at them. "She really has caught up with everything and she's hitting it out of the park in creative writing class."

"You do creative writing?" Mike asked proudly.

"I wrote a story and the teachers liked it." El shrugged again, blushing.

"Dude, she wrote your love story." Will grinned.

"My love story?" Mike looked at him confused.

"Yours and El's." Will corrected. "She wrote about a girl lost in the woods, drenched in rain, and found by a group of boys her age, one of whom snuck her into his house, gave her clean clothes, fed her and hid her from his parents to protect her and how she fell in love with him that day."

"That day?" Mike raised an eyebrow at his love.

"Yes." El nodded, giving him a shy smile.

"Thank god!" Mike sighed. "I thought it was just me who fell in love that day."

"You guys are so cute, it's almost sickening." Max huffed and acted as if she had to hurl.

"Is that the green-eyed monster I see?" El poked out her tongue at her.

"Shut up." Max moped.

"Envy." El winked at Mike and pressed a kiss to his cheek.

El closed her eyes and leaned against Mike, simply enjoying the closeness she had missed since leaving. Talking every day helped when it came to missing him but him being here in person would always be better. Joyce had told her that she would have to finish school and if she went to college or started a job, she would be able to live with Mike if she wanted to or if they went to the same college. She hadn't talked to Mike about it yet, given that it was still a couple of years away but the thought of waking up next to him every morning filled her with joy and excitement.

A while later, the train rumbled to a stop, the group exiting the transport and walking towards the mall. Will led the way like he had lived there for years instead of months, El soon gasping at the flurry of activity inside the huge building, blinking lights momentarily disorienting her. She grasped Mike's arm, holding herself steady as her boyfriend led her through the throng of people in front of them.

"What's wrong, El?" he asked her, noticing her concern.

"I've never seen so many people in such a small space." she admitted.

"Will, have you never taken her to the mall since you got here?" Mike turned to his friend, slightly accusing.

"Hey, it's not my fault that she spends her days either doing homework, studying or, her favorite pastime, holding a walkie and talking to you for hours on end." Will raised his arms. "And don't get me started on how many batteries she used up before we got her the new one that could be charged with a cable."

"I need to catch up to the other students." El shrugged and looked at Mike. "And I love talking to you."

"Me too." Mike smiled. "But the cable walkie is a great idea. Need to buy one of those."

"Can you afford it?" El wanted to know.

"Sure." Mike nodded. "I also need a few new swim trunks as well for my new job."

"You got a job?" Will asked.

"Yeah, he's gonna be a part time lifeguard at the pool." Dustin told him.

"In November?" Max looked incredulous.

"No, the indoor pool." Lucas interjected.

"Then the girls can ogle him even more than they already do." Dustin grinned.

"Girls are ogling you?" El stopped dead in her tracks, her hand holding Mike stopping him as well.

"What?" Mike looked at her, not having paid much attention to what Dustin had said.

"Girls are ogling you?" El repeated, squinting her eyes at him.

"No, they don't." Mike shook his head.

"They do." Max confirmed.

"What?" Mike was confused. "When? Where?"

"Remember two weeks ago, when you went on one of your swims?" Dustin asked.

"Yeah." Mike nodded slowly, still confused, while El squeezed his elbow almost painfully.

"Didn't you notice that, when you started, the pool was empty and when you finished, there was suddenly a group of girls sitting on the benches?" Dustin continued.

"What, you mean the bitch squad?" Mike shrugged. "What about them? They were sitting there in their bikinis and bathing suits, I thought they just waited for me to finish before they got into the pool."

"They were waiting for you to finish, alright." Dustin winked at him. "Trying to get a peek at that hard body of yours."

"I swear I didn't do anything." Mike looked fearfully at El, who still squinted at him. "I love only you."

"Good." El nodded.

"Wait, Dustin." Mike turned to his friend. "When you said you saw those girls there, where were you?"

"That's... not important. We should get to the stores." Dustin tried to change the topic.

"Ooooh, Dustin peeped on girls in bikinis." Max cooed. "Wait until we tell Suzie about this."

"Are you insane?" Dustin shrieked. "I wasn't peeping, I wanted to pick up Mike."

"We never met that day until after I got home again." Mike said.

"Okay, let the guys fight it out." Max interjected. "El, you're with me."

Before she could even think about giving Mike a kiss, Max had dragged her away, pushing her into the nearest store where a truly staggering amount of various items of clothing were hanging everywhere. Everything from dresses to underwear was situated in different areas, customers perusing the offers and store clerks putting them back onto their hangers when the people simply left them in the changing booths.

"So, lets get you something that will let Mike completely forget that other girls exist." Max grinned and moved to the underwear section.

"Max, we're fourteen." El gasped at the sight of all the, what she would call slutty, underwear.

"I'm fifteen. And it doesn't hurt to wear one of these." Max grinned, ignoring El's objection and holding a bra out to her.

"What's so special about that?"

"It's a wonderbra." Max giggled. "Makes your books look bigger."

"Okay." El hesitated, looking down at herself.

"Oh, don't fret, they're fine." Max waved her off. "Remember, they're still growing. Now go ahead, try it on. And also this, this, this and these."

El groaned when Max handed her several more items of clothing, a pair of jeans and several t-shirts along with a sweater and shoved her into the changing booth. She tried on the sweater first, removing hers and deciding that the new one wasn't that great when she felt the itching coming from the fabric. Next were the shirts, one of which she put down as a maybe when she saw how well it fitted itself to her body.

She had to give credit to Max because the jeans fitted perfectly. Every nuance of her lower body was accentuated and she felt a blush come on at the thought of how Mike would react if she showed it to him. She put those on the maybe pile too, then looked at the bra Max had handed her. With a sigh, she removed her shirt and bra and put the new one on, looking impressed at what it did to the appearance of her chest, even when she put her shirt back on.

"You got the bra on?" Max asked from outside.

"Yes." El said shyly.

"Can I see?" Max pleaded.

"Fine." El sighed and Max entered the booth as well. "So?"

"Looks good." Max nodded. "Can you lift the shirt?"

"No!" El gasped and held her arms protective around her chest.

"Come on, it's not as if I can't see a pair of those every day." Max huffed, pointing at her own chest. "I just wanna see how it looks just with the bra."

"Fine." El repeated and lifted her shirt, eliciting an impressed nod from her friend while feeling self-conscious about it.

"You know what you need to do tonight?" Max grinned. "When you and Mike are in your room, put that on in the bathroom and ask him for his opinion on your knew clothes, then come out wearing only that and he will never look at another girl again."

"You think so?" El asked hopefully, Dustin's words about girls ogling him still reverberating in his mind.

"Well, he'd never look at another girl anyway but every bit to reinforce it helps." Max giggled and pulled out a camera from her bag. "Come on, use your arms to squeeze your chest together and bend forward."

"What?" El gasped, covering her chest again.

"It's for Mike." Max told her. "A memento for when he has to go back to Hawkins."

"Can't believe I'm doing this." El shook her head and did as Max had suggested, letting her take a couple of pictures and even throwing an air kiss into one of them.

"Come on, buy this one and lets get to the next store." Max said. "I saw some amazing shoes before we came in here."

El put the shirt back onto the hanger and only bought the bra and the jeans, the latter only because it was on sale. She didn't want to spend all her money since she needed some of it for a Christmas gift for Mike and her new family and of course, for the ticket to get to Hawkins.

"How's life in general?" Max asked as they perused the shoes.

"I can't complain." El shrugged. "Joyce found a good job that pays well, it's going well in school..."

"Any problems with bullies?"

"No more than the usual." El shrugged, remembering Troy and his behavior towards the boys. "There's this... I think Mike called it a bitch squad, girls who are mean and make fun of others."

"I think they exist in every school." Max chuckled.

"I pity them." El said.

"Why?"

"They do all this because they want attention. I don't think any of them have a boyfriend." El told her. "I have Mike. I'm happier than them."

"That's very astute." Max was impressed. "You're turning into a people person."

"You take that back!" El gasped and laughed.

"Was Will right with the creative writing thing?"

"Yes, I like writing." El nodded. "It helps me cope, since dad is gone and I can't be with Mike every day."

"That's good." Max said, running her head across her back in support.

"Mike, what's wrong?" Dustin asked when they walked through the gaming supply store, looking for a Dungeons and Dragons figurine that would fit Max's new character class.

"Nothing's wrong." Mike waved him off, holding his bag with his new swim trunks. "I just became aware that we're leaving again in two days and I won't get to see El until Christmas."

"Cheer up, it's not that bad." Lucas said.

"Easy for you to say, you can see your girlfriend every day."

"Yeah, but I can't see mine at all." Dustin interjected. "I can't even talk to her every day."

"Yeah, that's true." Mike sighed. "Thanks buddy, for making me feel better."

"I'm glad that my relationship misery is cheering you up." Dustin deadpanned while the other boys grinned, knowing they weren't meaning it in any bad way.

"Dustin, you may have to accept that Suzie won't be the one, given that her parents wouldn't allow it." Mike told him. "We're freshmen now, so you may wanna expand your search parameters."

"Maybe that's what he was doing when he checked out the girls at the pool." Will winked at them.

"I wasn't checking out the girls." Dustin huffed. "I... just wanted to make sure Mike wouldn't overexert himself and drown."

"Dustin, I can swim." Mike smirked.

"Dude, you're swimming for like two hours straight." Lucas said. "He has a point."

"Why do you do that anyway?" Dustin wanted to know. "It's like you have to do it."

"It distracts me when I miss El." Mike shrugged.

"That's nice to hear." the voice of his soulmate made them jump.

"Jesus, wear a bell." Dustin held his chest. "How long have you been standing there?"

"Long enough." El smiled warmly and stepped into Mike's arms, her lips on his.

"Well, there goes the shopping, they will do this for the rest of the day." Max sighed, watching his two friends make out.

"And when they forget that there are people here and they're not alone." Max added and pulled Mike's hand away when it came to rest on El's butt.

"Sorry." El blushed, stopping the kiss and looking up at Mike who looked as embarrassed as she felt, though she was kinda missing his hand where it had been.

"Guys, I found it!" Will announced and picked up a box.

"You found what?" Max asked.

"The figurine you can use to represent your character in the Dungeons and Dragons game." Will said proudly and showed her the box of a figure, with skin dark as onyx and flowing white hair, holding two daggers.

"That looks badass." Max admitted. "Not a girl though."

"Drow females are rarely anything else than priestesses." Mike told her.

"This one it is then." Max shrugged.

The group as a whole continued their stroll through the mall, Mike taking El's bag to carry it for her without her having to ask for it, causing Max to give Lucas a pointed look that her boyfriend didn't understand until Max almost rammed her bag into Lucas' hand. Since they didn't want to spend all day in the mall, not that they couldn't, being in one brought back some bad memories for most of them. After a quick lunch, they rented some videos to watch while they continued to play the Dungeons and Dragons campaign and returned home by train.

"Wow, it smells good in here." Dustin commented, smelling the pies that would be served as dessert the next day.

"You can lick the bowl empty later, if you want." Joyce laughed from the kitchen.

"Where are Jonathan and Nancy?" Will asked.

"They went out." Joyce replied. "They deserved it after helping me with all this. Did you have fun?"

"Yes." Lucas nodded. "We got some stuff and rented some videos to watch while we play."

"Enjoy." Joyce called from the kitchen.

"Guys, I just thought of something." Dustin said as they situated themselves around the table, their gaming stuff in front of them.

"What?" Max asked.

"The Starcourt mall." Dustin said. "The Russians must have build it or whoever built it must have been in league with them."

"Do you know how crazy that sounds?" Mike looked at his friends.

"Guys, you weren't down there but I was." Dustin reminded them. "They built a huge underground facility. They had an elevator that went hundreds of feet down and then a tunnel miles long that led to the area where they had built this machine that had reopened the gate."

"He's right." Will agreed. "How could they have built it without anyone knowing?"

"Imagine how much dirt and debris they would have to transport away. Without something like a mall as cover, how would you explain that you have to transport dozens if not hundreds of truckloads of dirt." Dustin recounted. "And all that concrete and other stuff they need to build their facility. How would you explain ordering hundreds of tons of cement for something nobody knows was being build?"

"That raises the question how the Russians knew about the gate under Hawkins in the first place." Mike theorized.

"Well, our government kidnapped children with powers and tried to make them into weapons." Lucas pointed at El. "Who's to say the Russians haven't done or are doing something similar?"

"But I opened the gate in the first place." El reminded them, her voice quiet.

"Maybe some Russian experiment opened one too?" Dustin suggested. "Or they somehow found out about the Upside Down and realized that there was a gate here in Hawkins. Why else come here?"

"Dustin, how many Russians were down there?" Mike asked his friend.

"Dozens." Dustin told him. "Add the scientists and you had at least a hundred people or more."

"How did all of them get into the country in the first place?" Mike looked around. "I doubt that they could have come here without our government knowing about it."

"You mean someone helped them?" Lucas asked.

"Like the bad people who ran the lab." Mike looked at his love, squeezing her hand in support. "After they had to leave because of those reports in the news, maybe they didn't want to stop?"

"I think, if we keep thinking about this, we'll have nosebleeds like El did when she used her powers." Max huffed. "Lets continue with the game, shall we?"

"All right." Mike nodded, everyone agreeing, and he took up the narration again from where they left off. "The group got up before dawn, wanting to leave the town before people could notice their newest traveling companion."

El looked at her sweetie, smiling at the effortless way he switched into narrative mode and seeing his passion for the game, even though they had gotten older and a lot of his passion had switched to her. She ran a hand over his thigh, his voice cracking for a moment before he placed his left hand on hers, giving her a look out of the corner of his eye and a slight smile while never missing a beat.

Just looking at him doing this gave her another idea for her next creative writing assignment. A story about a hero looking for his princess and battling monsters and fathers on the way. When the word father entered her mind, her mood turned to sad, her mind conjuring up the images of her dad in his police uniform, his head like a tomato when he had once again caught them kissing.

"You alright?" Mike squeezed his hand.

"Yeah." she nodded. "Thinking of dad."

"We all miss him." Mike said and the others agreed. "Even though he scared the crap out of me so much that it led to our breakup."

"Wait, I wanted to ask you about this." El sat up straighter. "What exactly happened? The last time you tried to explain, you couldn't gather enough courage to tell me you loved me and you said something about what he did."

"Remember when he came into your room and tried to talk to us both about something before he said that my mother called about my nana?"

"Yes." El nodded.

"When we got into his car, he went all psycho on me, telling me that I had to stay away from you for a while or he wouldn't allow me to see you anymore at all." Mike explained. "And he also ordered me to never tell you about this, hence my lie about my nana."

"That son of a bitch!" El cursed. "If he were here, I would smack him."

"Honey, never forget that he did this all because he loved you." Mike calmed her. "Even if his methods were a little weird."

"But breaking up the relationship between your daughter and her boyfriend?" Max wondered. "If she had found out about it, she would have torn him apart, literally."

"No, not that but I probably would have thrown him back and forth a bit." El chuckled sadly. "I miss him."

"He'll always be with you in here." Mike told her, putting his hand flat on her chest, the intimate gesture giving her stomach flutters, especially when his fingers ended up right on top of her left nipple, even covered by two layers of clothing.

"I know." El nodded, snuggling into his side.

"Hey, no cheating." Dustin waved her hand to shoo her away from her place at Mike's side.

"Why cheating?"

"You can't look at the Dungeon Master's boards." Lucas told her.

"Sorry." El huffed, rolling her eyes.

"So, we're deep in the cave." Dustin said, getting the group's attention back to the game.

"I strain my ears to see if there's any danger around." Lucas announced.

"Roll it." Mike nodded and Lucas rolled a four.

"Well, you don't hear anything." Mike chuckled.

"I do the same." Max said and rolled the die, getting a twelve and since her character was better suited for dark caves, her roll was a success.

"You find a small runic circle on the floor, broken on one side." Mike told Max. "The others hold their torches close to it and find scattered bones and clothing remains around it, indicating a place that was used to summon something. There's a small glass ball directly in the center."

"I take it in my hand and cast identify object on it." El said and rolled the dice, the result being a one.

"Shit, a fumble." Lucas groaned.

"The glass ball starts shaking. Flames begin churning inside it and it looks as if it was about to burst. The mage lets the ball fall to the ground and the impact bursts it open, the flames licking out and touching the rim of the summoning circle. It is a demon."

"Oh man." Dustin wailed. "Please don't be a demon lord or a balor."

"It's not a demon lord." Mike announced after rolling his dice and rolling again to find out which one came out of the glass ball. "It's a... an Immolith."

"Oh, shit!" Dustin groaned. "Who has ice magic?"

"I do." El said.

"She needs at least two turns to cast a spell strong enough to beat an immolith." Lucas pointed out.

"Mike, it's a fiend, can't you cast your turn spell?" Dustin asked.

"I doubt I would roll high enough to be successful for that kind of fiend." Mike said, thinking about it. "I got an idea. I raise my shield and stand in front of the mage to shield her against the flames."

He rolled the dice and in their game mind, the monster attacked them with a burst of fire, the flames hitting the shield of the paladin until its enchants were overwhelmed and the fighter was thrown aside, his skin scorched. El's character did her attack, destroying the creature in one fell swoop, sending it back to the circle of hell it came from while Will the Cleric tended the wounds of the paladin.

"Whew, that was intense." Lucas chuckled. "Though we were kinda useless in this fight."

"Wow, I really thought we'd finish in two nights." Mike mused as they sat around the dinner table, eating pizza. "Guess I misjudged."

"Well, you could either finish it tomorrow after we have the Thanksgiving dinner or you keep your progress until Christmas when El and Will come down to Hawkins for two weeks." Joyce chuckled.

"If Max hadn't thrown a tantrum, we would have made it." Lucas shrugged, receiving a slap on his head in return. "Ow, what was that for."

"I didn't throw a tantrum." Max harrumphed. "I just didn't want to spend more hours playing a board game. We rented movies for a reason."

"Guys, she's right." Mike said. "We should be thankful that the girls play D&D in the first place."

"True." Dustin agreed. "Thanks, you two."

"You're welcome." El smiled. "By the way Max, what movies did you get?"

"Well, some of the greatest from last year that are now out on video." Max smiled. "Some action for the boys and some romance for us."

"Good god!" Mike sighed, hearing the movie genre he like the least. "What mushy story will we have to suffer through?"

"Out of Africa." Max wiggled her eyebrows, causing all the boys to groan.

"But at least we can cancel that out with Back to the Future, The Goonies and Cocoon." Will added. "We should start with The Goonies, so we have a basis to endure Out of Africa and tomorrow we can watch the other two."

"It's a plan." Lucas agreed, Dustin as well.

"I bet my next allowance that Mike and El won't watch a second of Out of Africa because they'll be too busy kissing on the lay-z-boy." Dustin smiled. "Any takers?"

"Are you nuts?" Will shook his head. "I don't take bets I know I'll lose."

"I doubt we will do that for the entire movie." Mike shook his head.

As it turned out, Mike would have lost the bet if he had taken it. He and El snuggled up together on the lay-z-boy and shared a bowl of popcorn while watching the first movie but when Max put the romance into the player and they had put their empty popcorn bowl away, it took less than ten minutes of the movie for their lips to meet for the first time and from the moment the movie hit the thirty minute mark to the end, their lips never separated except for a bathroom break both needed.

Hoots and snickering accompanied their making out, Joyce keeping quiet about it due to her appreciation for the deep love she saw between the two. She also knew that Mike would never do anything untoward with El, never pressure her into anything though she wasn't so sure what he'd do if El pushed the issue.

During the make-out, Mike's hand had drawn circles on her back but had moved down her body on its own until it rested on her behind again. El had felt it and decided it felt nice, so stopping him from doing that didn't become an option and she had even tried to push herself against his hand though he had understood that as an order to take it away until a few minutes later, it had found its way back.

Being shook out of their own world after the movie by Joyce to the snickering of the others was a minor embarrassment for the two but they continued to kiss while they waited for their turn in the bathroom until Joyce reminded them that there was a second one downstairs that they could use. When all the others were ready, El told Mike to use the ground floor bathroom while she used the one on the upper floor but before she went inside, she grabbed the wonderbra she had bought with Max, putting it on once she was done showering and brushing her teeth.

"Mike?" she got her love's attention, who turned around and stood in front of the bed, clad in his pajama shorts without a shirt.

El had only her head in the room, the rest of her body hidden by the door but her eyes almost bulged out when she saw his upper body shirtless for the first time ever. The scrawny boy she fell in love with had not only grown very tall but also rather big, his torso turning into a V-shape from the exercise he was doing with visible stomach muscles that weren't as pronounced when she had run her hands over them during the morning.

"El?" Mike snapped her out of her ogling. "What is it?"

"I bought something but I don't think if it's something I should wear. Can you give me your honest opinion?" she asked.

"Of course." he nodded and she stepped into the room, his eyes going wide. "Wow, you look... different. But that's the same thing you wore last night, isn't it? Or are you wearing a different pair of bottoms?"

"No, they're the same." she said and lifted the shirt a bit, revealing the same tight-fitting pajama shorts with flower patterns and noticing his eyes bulging even further.

"Then what?" he asked, his eyes roaming back to her chest.

"I got this." she said and lifted her shirt to reveal her chest, her breasts bunched up by the bra.

Mike's first thought was that his heart had stopped beating. His eyes were glued to the two bulging domes protruding from her chest. He knew for a while that she was developing nicely in that area but what he was seeing was bigger than he had ever seen them, bigger than they were all day. While El looked somewhat self-conscious and was waiting for his comment, she saw his mouth forming into an 'o' and back to closed before going into the shape again but to be honest, she was already informed of his reaction by the bulge developing in his pajama shorts.

"You look like a fish." she giggled.

"Wh... What happened there?" he asked almost breathlessly.

"It's a wonderbra." El explained. "Max made be buy it. It makes the breasts appear bigger. Do you like it?"

"El..."

"You don't like it?" she looked at him disappointed.

"No... I mean yes." Mike stammered.

"Which one?" she asked, still holding the shirt up.

"El, I think you're perfect in every way." he smiled. "You don't need to make your breasts look bigger, for me, they're perfect already."

"Every time I think I did something wrong, you say something like this." she sighed and walked into his arms, his mouth lowering to meet her lips.

With her shirt still above her breasts, it also didn't cover her behind anymore and Mike's hands went down there almost automatically while they kissed. El moaned into his mouth when he began squeezing her butt cheeks and a strange heat pooled inside her abdomen. As their tongues began dancing, she pushed forward, causing him to fall backwards onto the bed and she climbed in after him as he pushed himself to the back of it so his head was above the cushions.

She straddled him and felt the bulge, the erection as Joyce had told her, push against her. It was a weird feeling but weird in a good way and almost automatically, her lower body began undulating. Her moans became more urgent, her tongue darting into his mouth forcefully and Mike could barely fathom what was happening right now.

He knew what she was doing, he had read the various magazines that Steve and Robin had given them as a joke to learn, as they called it with a huge giggle. He just didn't know what brought it on at this time, though the last thing he wanted to do was stop her. It felt good to feel her grinding on his manhood and it felt even better to hear her feel pleasure after everything she went through in her life and the best feeling was that she was feeling it with him. El's movements became faster and faster until they were almost frantic. She broke the kiss and sat up, her own weight adding more pressure to her and she moaned loudly enough to make them concerned that someone could hear them if they had cared enough in that moment.

"Mike." she gasped. "Mike! Mike!"

Chanting his name with every grind forward, El suddenly stopped moving, her body beginning to shake. She pressed her lips together, moaning through her nose before she fell forward to press her lips on Mike's again and keened into his mouth, swallowing most of the sound and preventing it from escaping through the walls into the ears of the people in the other rooms.

"Oh, wow!" El gasped when she finally got her breath back. "What just happened?"

"Honey, did you just have an orgasm?" Mike asked.

"Or...gasm?" she repeated slowly.

"It's a... a... well, a sexual high." Mike tried to explain, blushing hard. "Like... uh..."

"Mike." she interrupted him, deciding to free him of the obligation of explaining it and determined to get through the magazines Joyce had handed her. "Shhh."

Smiling dreamily, she pressed her lips back on his and rolled on top of him again, this time just to kiss. With closed eyes, Mike reached out and shut off the light, plummeting the room into the darkness of the night, their tongues still dancing to the music of love. Neither of them noticed that every loose item in the room was now strewn on the floor.

So, personally, if I had read that last part, I wouldn't have thought that it merits an M rating but since I don't know how people react to this kind of thing, I decided to up the rating anyway, just to make sure that overly sensitive readers aren't offended and end up reporting me.

Review please :)
