*a few months earlier*
me and will have been friends since kindergarten. and since i've met him, i've always liked him.. a lot. he definitely doesn't like me back though. who would?- maybe eleven. i like eleven don't get me wrong. but i miss will. will has been missing.. and i've been try to not show it, but i'm slowly losing my mind and i'm so tired of crying myself to sleep every night because he's gone. what if.. my best friend is dead? i cant fucking lose him. i'm terrif-
*later*
"mike are you alright?" it was will. i wiped my tears and smiled at him, "yeah will! i'm fine don't worry." will smiled at me, and i got up off of my bed "hey do you wanna go meet up with dustin, max, lucas and el?" will nodded and took my hand, "oh sorry." he let go, and i didn't say anything. i didn't want him to get suspicious. "okay uh let's go n-now." he said. i stopped him. "hey will. wait." i grabbed his shoulders "i am so happy you're still alive. i missed you. so much." i hugged him. he hugged me back and i felt his tears get on my shirt. "mike.. i.."
*wills pov*
i needed to tell him. i pulled away. "mike something big is coming. something is wrong." i started crying more and i grabbed his shoulders. "please i'm scared mike i can't be here anymore i'm so scared mike. something bad is coming and we're all gonna get hurt and im so scar-" mike hushed me. he pulled me into his arms and we sat on his couch in the basement. "will. listen to me. everything will be fine alright. im not gonna let anything get you. im not losing you again understand?" i hugged him tight and cried into his chest and he rubbed my back. then lucas and max walked in. "woah, what's happening here?" i looked at mike and shook my head, and lifted up and wiped my tears. "nothing. everything is fine, where's el and dustin?" mike asked "mike. we can't find el."
*mikes pov*
what..? that's weird. will stood up and looked around. me and lucas started talking. "you guys can't fucking find el?!" "she wasn't at her house, i checked there and asked hopper. she was supposed to be
here?" max looks at me confusingly. i started to panic. "guys she's not fucking here. come on. let's go get dustin and then-" lucas grabbed me, "mike it's so late at night we can't-" i slap him "EL COULD BE IN DANGER I DONT GIVE A FUCK IF ITS LATE AT NIGHT!" i pushed him away and ran outside. i was so FUCKING PISSED! i was halfway down the road when someone grabbed me. "mike wait. it's dangerous you can't go by yourself" will. "i know will you said you fucking sensed something but ELEVEN COULD BE IN DANGER! DO YOU UNDERSTAND?! SHE COULD GET-" will moved away from me and stared at me in fear. "wait will no i'm sorry-" will started to walk away from me, and i stood there in fear. what did i just do..? he was heading back towards my house. and it started raining. i sat on the street, and started crying. sobbing. i started punching the road until my fists were bleeding. i kept punching harder and harder. until i passed out.
*wills pov*
i ran away from mike crying. i ran back to his house because i was scared. i stopped before i got there. i looked back. mike was laying in the road. MIKE WAS LAYING IN THE ROAD?! i ran to him. "MIKE! MIKE WAKE UP!" oh god oh god.. i pulled him into my arms, his fists were bleeding bad. oh god mike. "MIKE!?" i put my hand on his face. "hey it's gonna be okay. i promise you it's gonna be fine. MAX? LUCAS? PLEASE HELP!" i held mikes hand. "you're gonna be okay." lucas came running out. "oh god.." "SHUT UP AND HELP ME!" lucas helped me pick him up and carry him back to his house. his hands looked so fucking bad. "lucas i have to get home, bye will, bye lucas" lucas stopped her "max wait, let me walk you home. sorry will i'll be back." i shook my head. "no lucas, go home. i got him." he nodded. once he left i broke down into tears and i hugged mike. "i'm sorry i'm sorry. it's not your fault and i understand you were scared i'm sorry mike."
*mikes pov*
i woke up to will crying beside me. i looked at my fists and they were still dripping blood. i took one hand and put it on wills hand that was on my chest and started rubbing it. i didn't know what i was doing, i was just out of it. "mike?" i smiled slightly. god i'm such an idiot. suddenly the phone in the basement started to ring. will went to go answer it, he said it was max. once he got off will said max found el and i smiled. i sat up. will was calling his mom to let her know that he was staying over night, i stood up and walked over to will. i wanted to hug him, but all i did was put my hand on his shoulder. he got off the phone with his mom and looked at me.
"um i just wanted to say.. i-i'm really sorry for yelling at you. will i- you deserve a better friend and i'm sorry i can't be that better friend. really. i'm so so sorry. and it's okay if you don't-" will hugged me "mike. hush. please. anyways, i'm staying over so where can i sleep?" i smiled "you can sleep in my bed i'll sleep down here" will frowned "no that's your bed- i'm not taking it." i sighed, "fine, but i can make you a bed in the floor beside my bed? i have a sleeping bag! i don't want you sleeping alone" will smiled at me, god i love his smile. just seeing him happy makes me so happy- what was i thinking? "mike? are you okay?" oh shit "yeah i'm fine, sorry. anyways come on!" i took his hand and pulled him upstairs to my room. after we talked for awhile he fell asleep. i stayed up all night, unable to sleep. but i felt safer knowing will was by my side, but i still couldn't sleep. i don't know what was wrong.
