Unconditional (Mike Hanlon x fem reader)

Chapter 3: I like, like you

Bill decided he wanted us to meet in his garage to show us something. I decided to meet up with Mike on the way there.

"Ready to see what Billy Boy desperately wants to show us?" I ask.

"I suppose so, does he usually get you guys to meet in his garage?" He asks me slightly confused.

"Not on the regular." He just nods and we race to Bill's.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We arrived at Bill's to be welcomed by a projector with a map and everyone gathered around in chairs.

"Y/n!" Bev calls over to me patting her hand on a chair. I walk over and sit down. Mike stands directly behind the chair.

Bill starts yapping on about IT's whereabouts, Eddie starts having an panic induced asthma attack until the projector starts rolling through pictures by itself. It's stops on a picture of Bills family.

It then zooms in on Georgie and then into his mom. Suddenly the clown pops up. I immediately stood up.

Mike grabs my hand and pulls me towards him. The clown suddenly disappears. "What the fuck?" I exclaim.

Suddenly a giant clown reappears outside of the projector. Mike pulls me to his chest to protect me. The clown starts going after Bev so I push Mike away and run to Bev. "Y/N!!" Mike and Richie call after me.

Bev manages to escape whilst the clown stares at me and starts treading closer towards me. I fall down and close my eyes sobbing. Mike and Ben open up the garage and the clown disappears.

I stay on the ground sobbing and Mike runs towards me. "Hey, hey. You're okay. Look I'm here." He pulls me into his chest and I continue to cry. "I'm here, it's okay." He whispers over and over again and kisses my head.

Once I've done breaking down Mike and I stand up and Bill runs off on his bike. We all follow him to Neibolt house.

If I told you I wasn't shitting myself I'd be lying. But this is for Bill. He makes a whole speech about how being at Neibolt is less hard then being at home knowing Georgie is never coming home.

Poor boy, he lost his brother now a killer clown wants to come after him too?

We decided to pull straws to see who would go inside because everyone but Bill and Bev were too pussy. Eddie, Richie and Bill ended up pulling the short straw so the rest of us were left outside.

Mike was sat against a tree next to the house waiting for the "okay" to go inside. I walked over and sat beside him.

"Hey, how you holding up?" He asks me with a gentle voice.
"I'm doing alright, traumatised, but okay." I reply with a fake smile.

He grabbed my hand and rubbed a thumb over my knuckles.
"I thought I almost lost you." He says out of the blue.
"Lost me?" I ask confused.

"Y/n, I really like you."
"I like you too, Mike."
"No, not like. I mean I like, like you."
"Me too, Mike. I really like you as more then a friend."
"Well, will you Y/n. Go on a date with me?"
"Yes, I will Mike. I would love to."
