El looked out of the plane window and watched as it begun to roll into action.She'd actually never been on a plane before.It was her first time and she was absolutely terrified of what would happen on the journey to Hawkins.

As excited as she was to see her friends,to see Mike,there was that feeling in her stomach.Like a pit that was opening up and getting deeper and darker every time she found a new worry or anxious thought in that never ending mind of hers.

This time it wasn't about dumb Angela and the others though,it wasn't about the bullies or how badly she was failing a few school subjects.It was about 'what will Mike think of me when he sees me?' and also a bit of 'what if this plane crashes?' but she was too embarrassed to admit that second one,and also the first was invading her mind way more making it super important.

Shutting her eyes quickly,she put on her headphones and pressed 'play' on her walkman to you know,clear her mind.For her birthday Mike had made and sent her a mixtape full of songs that he thought she'd love,and one that was extremely important to the pair.He'd also given her a handwritten letter with all the songs that were on the tape and decorated it using Holly's stickers and markers.

El looked over the words on the piece of paper,running her finger over one of the stickers.It was a waffle,possibly an eggos waffle,but she wasn't 100% sure.She'd ask Mike when she landed.

She thought about him again,about Mike and the way he allowed her to play with his hair and let her count his freckles.El was over the moon that she'd be in her dear boyfriends arms in a couple of hours,of course she was,how could she not be?A sudden wave of sadness washed over her though as she thought about having to leave him in two weeks time anyways.

It would never be enough,just two weeks,she needed more than that.Eternity would be perfect but definitely impossible.She sighed and looked at the waffle sticker and smiled sadly at it as if it was connected to Mike in a spiritual way.

As the music played slowly in her ears,the melody of a song lulling her to sleep,her eyes fluttered closed and everything just..melted away.It was only her and the sweet words putting her into a trance,a peaceful one at least,one where no types of thoughts could stop her from happiness.

-
An hour or two later-El had lost track-the plane landed harshly with some turbulence as it came into collision with the ground.She gripped the seat tightly with fright from the sudden bumpiness on what seemed like a very smooth flight earlier on.

"I'm so excited,"she whispered to Will,who was sitting right next to her,but one look at his face told her that he was still asleep.
"Will."she nudged him with her arm until she saw his eyes open and look around the cabin tiredly.

"What are we here already?"he asked,staring out of the window.
She nodded happily,the biggest smile stretched over her face,knowing that soon she'd be reunited with Mike.

Leaving the plane took a few minutes as everyone else was also trying to get out,leaving no space in the narrow passage which lead to the exit.El and Will brought down their suitcases from the overhead cabins and slotted them into the place where they were sitting just a few minutes ago as they waited for the place to clear out.Joyce,who was sitting with Hopper in the other aisle, looked around the plane and mumbled quiet words under her breath at the people which made her look funny in El's opinion.

Once they stepped out,the spring breeze hit them forcefully,causing all their eyes to water.Hawkins was definitely not the same temperature as California.Everything looked a lot more grey and gloomy,except for the few flower fields where poppies,daffodils and tulips blossomed beautifully.The sky was more of a cool grey than the usual Californian swimming pool blue shade which stretched out for miles without a cloud to be seen.El's eyes widened at the sight.
