mileven pregnancy

our girl

time jump bc this is trash and i don't feel like writing

el woke up to the clashing off pots and pans out in the kitchen.

ever since el was pregnant, hopper had gone crazy about eating healthy.

he spent hours each day making full meals.

for breakfast this morning, he made pancakes with assorted berries on top, along with a glass of orange juice and a banana.

of course, el could never eat all of it. she never had any glamorous meals in the lab, so she was definitely not a foodie.

"how ya doin kid?" hop asked as el walked out and slowly sat down on the kitchen chair.

"she kept me up all night" she groaned before stabbing a fork at her pancakes and soft placing her other hand in her stomach.

el had gone to the doctor just a week ago for an ultrasound. of course, mike came, since there was no way hopper could stop him, and he held her hand the whole time.

the doctor saw on the ultra sound the gender of the baby, and asked the young couple if they wanted to know. of course, they said yes.

it was a girl.

ever since, they had been coming up with names, and mike even spent

though hop was fuming at el and especially at mike, he knew they needed support. and, though the fact that his daughter had done it disgusted him, he was glad it was mike.

the boy truly loved her. he was the first person who she ever trusted, he took care of her and was the only person who could calm her down.

after el finished her breakfast, she got into hop's truck and they drove to mike's. he had to work today, and it was saturday, so el didn't have school.

since she told him abour the baby, hop never left her home alone. he was worried that something would happen to her. so, she spent a lot of time at mike's or max's house, whenever he went out.

when he got to the bottom of the cul-de-sac, she opened the door and waved goodbye.

el strolled down the driveway and knocked on the basement door, where mike soon appeared.

"hey el!" he said, giving her a quick kiss. he crouched down a bit and kissed the bump forming on el's stomach.

el smiled at her boyfriend, who she loved dearly. it was so cute, the way he would talk to the baby when they were watching a movie or rest his hand on it whenever they were cuddling.

they walked into the basement and lucas, dustin, max, and will were already sitting down and arguing about the best star wars movie.

el walked into the room and made her way to the empty spot on the couch. she slowly sat down and all the boys reached out to help her.

"guys! i can sit down by myself!" she joked.

the boys had been even more protective then usual, and it drove el insane. they helped her sit up and down, they were always getting up to grab things for her, and standing behind her on stairs, as if she was going to fall!

as annoying as it was, it was sweet. she knew they would always have her back, and it made her feel special.

the boys were playing a game of dnd while max and el, who still refused to learn the nerdy game their boyfriends loved, looked through magazines.

el was laying on the couch, and got up to get some water. mike got up to help her, but she shooed him away and told him to keep playing.

mike gave max an eye and she got up, rolled her eyes, and followed el.

max wasn't mad about helping el, she just didn't want to take orders from mike.

el was filling up her cup in the sink, and max leaned against the counters.

"how's she doing?" max said with a smile, referring to the little one in el's stomach.

"she's been keeping me up all night with her kicks! oh!" she said with surprise.

el smiled, "she's doing it right now, feel"

max slowly placed her hand on el's bump and felt a bump.

"was that it? was that a kick?" max asked, in awe.

el nodded her head, "yup, that's my little girl! i wanna show mike!"

"i'll go get him" max walked down the stairs and was soon replaced with mike, who smiled at el before giving her a kiss.

"can i feel her?" he asked.

"of course" el took his hands and slowly placed them on her stomach. he felt something hit his hand.

"oh my god!" el watched his face, he as happy, so happy. a tear almost escaped his eye, before he wiped it away and gave el a hug.

"our girl" he whispered
"our girl"
