Thank you to all the people who have reviewed. Someone said please don't jump to rape and trust me I won't. I would never go that far because I absolutely hate it in stories myself. What Ryan did to El in the last chapter is farthest I will go. This might be the last chapter for a while because I'm going on vacation soon. But I may be able to fit in one more before I leave. Anyway enjoy this chapter.
A little over an hour later Hopper finally arrived back home. He walked into the house and saw that El and Mike were in the kitchen setting the table for dinner. When El saw her dad she immediately ran over to him and gave him a huge hug.
"What happened with Ryan" El said worried.
"Trust me he won't be bothering you anymore. His father had no idea what was going on and was definitely not happy. We both agreed it would be best if he was sent to a boarding school".
Mike sighed in relief and said "Thank God. I was so worried that he was going to do something terrible to El".
El sat down at the kitchen table and said "Now that this is over let's not talk about it".
"Ya I'm starving. Let's eat. You staying for dinner Wheeler".
"You don't mind if I do".
Hopper looked at El, smiled and said "For always being there to protect my daughter, of course you can stay. I've known for a while you are part of this family".
"So you admit it Sir. You like me".
"Don't push it Kid".
Mike laughed and sat down next to El. For most of dinner they ate in comfortable silence until Hopper said "I won't be here tomorrow night because I'm going out with Joyce. So please don't to anything stupid. And I'm talking to you too Wheeler. Trust me I already know what you are thinking in that teenage head of yours".
Mike's eyes widened and before he could say something, El said "Oh shut up Dad. Mike and I are responsible teenagers".
"Oh I know that considering I saw a condom wrapper sticking out of Wheeler's back pocket".
El froze and Mike choked on the chicken he was eating. Mike and El starred at each other debating what they should say next. There was along awkward pause until Hopper said
"Look, I'm not thrilled you two are having sex but at least I know you are being safe. I don't want any grandkids until you guys are at least 25".
Mike was shocked by Hoppers reaction. He thought for sure he was a dead man. Mike looked over at El and she seemed just as shocked as him. Then Mike blurted out, "I'm surprised you didn't get your gun and chase me out of the house".
"Oh trust me, I was about to, but I knew El would be mad. And you know things don't go well when she gets angry".
El just laughed and continued eating dinner.
After dinner Mike said he should go home because his Mom is probably worried about him. So he kissed El goodbye and told her he would call her later tonight. He finally pulled into his driveway and walked through his front doors. His dad was of course asleep in his lazy boy and his Mom was putting leftover food away. Karen noticed her son and quickly ran over to give him a hug. She then said "Sweetie I missed you today. I barely saw you".
"Sorry Mom. I did want to go home earlier but El was having more problems with that boy. But luckily Hopper took care of it so we won't have to be worrying about him anymore".
"Good I'm glad that's over. El is such a beautiful young lady. I'm so happy you two found each other".
"Thanks Mom. I love her more than anything".
"I know you do sweetie. I can see how much you guys truly care for each other".
Mike smiled and said "Is Holly asleep yet. I want to read her a story".
"I just put her to bed so she probably isn't fully asleep yet. If she isn't then you can read her a story"
"Ok see you in the morning Mom".
Mike waked upstairs and into Holly's bedroom. He then whispered "Holly are you still up".
"Mikey your home! I missed you today".
"I missed you two Holly. Can I read you a story"?
"Can you read the princess and the frog? And do the funny voices too".
"Of course I can".
Mike read her the story and she soon fell asleep. He stood up from lying on Holly's bed and quietly left the room. Mike went into his room, did his homework, and then soon called El. They talked for a while but Mike ended the conversation saying he should probably get some sleep. He hung up the phone and crawled into his bed. As he was falling asleep, he couldn't believe how much drama had happened since the school year started. He decided not to think about it and dreamed all his worries away.
Mike woke up the next morning and was so happy it was Friday. Someone was having a huge party tonight and he couldn't wait to just take a break from everything and just have fun. His friends weren't huge partyers but occasionally the came to one to let loose. Mike did his normal morning routine and was off to pick up El.
This chapter is short but the next one will be really fun. Please leave a review because I love hearing what you guys have to say.
