Mike's POV:

     I can't pull my eyes away from her adorable little smile, as the kissing scene of Sixteen Candles plays on the television.  I stroke my cold fingers through her hair.  We are truly enjoying ourselves right now.  No Hopper yelling at us, no school because it's mid-July, just us, enjoying romantic time together.  

     All of a sudden, I hear the basement door burst open, and quite a few footsteps trotting down the stairwell.  Of course, it's Lucas, Dustin, and Will with wet jackets draped over their shoulders.  

     They pull the hoods off of their heads, and drops of rain trickle down onto the carpet.  They throw the soaked jackets on my chair, and sit around El and I.  They stare at me so intensely, I don't know what they are about to say.  

     Shit!  We were going to watch a movie at the theater in Starcourt tonight.  

     "Guys, I know what you're about to say, and I'm sorry.  I was just spending romantic time with my girlfriend!"  "Yeah, and I was too.  Max had to go home early, but we sat next to each other in the reclined movie seats, shared a box of twizzlers, and had a bottle of pop with two straws."  responds Lucas, raising his eyebrows.  

Wills POV:

     The whole time Lucas, Dustin, and I are there, Mike and El don't move.  They have their arms around each other, El's head on Mike's shoulder.  Wouldn't they at least sit up with us there?  

     Mike rolls his eyes at Lucas's response, and El giggles.  They lean in for a kiss, and my whole insides sink.  I feel like I am dropping down a 300 foot tall rollercoaster.  Why can't that be his soft lips against mine, even if it was only for a second.  It's not fair.  

     Dustin gives the two lovebirds a recap of Back to the Future, which we just watched.  Of course Dustin is so smart, that he gives such a detailed description of the film.  Except, apparently Dustin didn't describe one of the scenes correctly, so him and Lucas "argued" back and forth about it.  

     El and Mike zone out from that whole argument, and just look at each other.  They stroke their hand through each others hair.  It hurts.  It hurts.  It hurts, Mike Wheeler.  

Thank you for reading this chapter!  Mike is going to notice Will soon... I promise!  Have a great day / night lovelies!  Enjoy the next chapter!  <3
