SNOWBALL

THIRD PERSONS POV:

"You guys look fantastic!"Steve exclaims while dropping off Y/n and Dustin. Dustin smiles widely while Y/n gives him a death stare. "Shut up Steve before i set you  on fire !" Y/n shouts. Steve and Dustin have each other a nervous smile. because knowing Y/n he probably would. "Okay guys have fun!Don't do anything i wouldn't do!" Steve shouts at them as they get out of the car. Y/n looks through the passenger window. "What wouldn't you do?" He gives Steve a smirk and walks away.

As Y/n and Dustin walk into the gym, there eyes are met blue and silver decorations. Balloons are everywhere, while streamers were hung across the ceiling. Their were small tables off to the side with blue tablecloths. On the back wall was a banner that said, 'Snowball 84'' There was a long table full of snacks and drinks as well.

"Isn't this amazing Y/n?"Dustin asks looking at his friend. Y/n looks around,"I want to go home." Dustin rolls his eyes and walks towards the party. Y/n following behind him. "Hey guys!" Dustin says catching their attention. " Holy- Dustin your hair looks great!" Lucas compliments him. Dustin smiled, happy that someone noticed his new hair style.They all sit and talk until Mike looked at the entrance. They turned around to see what Mike was looking at.

There stood Eleven in a blue dress. Her hair was nicely done. It looked curly. Y/n was about to stand up and ask Eleven to dance but Mike got to her first. 'Worth a shot' He thought to himself. As soon as Mike reached El , a slow song came on. Y/n rolled his eyes at the song and whatever lovey-dovey shit is going on in front of him. Lucas asked Max to dance.

Max hesitated at first and took a glance at Y/n but he was zoned out.'You let him believe you're afraid of him. Why would he want to dance with you?' Max thought to herself. She grabbed Lucas' hand and walked out onto to the dance floor."It's just me and you now Dusty-" Y/n turned around to look at him but Dustin was gone. He turned to the dance floor to see Dustin and Nancy dancing together. He smiled to himself. Will and a girl were dancing, Mike and Eleven, Lucas and Max, and then Dustin and Nancy.

He sat there alone halfway through the song, watching his friends dance. Then, Max came up and stood right in front of him. "Hi." She says slightly waving at him. He looks up at her,"Hey." She takes a deep breath and held out her hand,"Do you want to dance with me?" She shyly smiles. He takes her hand and stands up,"Sure." He smiles at her. They walk onto the dance floor. He places her hands on her waist while her arms are around his neck.

"I thought you were scared of me." He says bluntly. Her smile drops and looks at him with guilt,"I'm sorry. I wasn't afraid, it just caught me off guard all of us. Your our friend, we're not scared of you." Her smiles at her apology,"Just promise not to back away from me again, whenever like that happens." She nods,"I promise. And promise me you won't light anyone on fire." They both chuckle to this,"I promise."

They sit in a comfortable silence."Lucas kissed me earlier when we were dancing." Y/n looked at her with raised eyebrows. "Holy shit. Did you like it?" He smiles brightly."Noo. Well, yes he's a good kisser,but i don't like him like that, y'know?" He nods to say he understands. "What about you and Eleven?" Her voice changes colder whenever the name leaves her mouth."She's cool i guess. Her and Mike seem like a thing."

"What makes you think that?" She tilts her head in curiosity.

"Oh nothing. Except for the fact their basically eating each other's faces right now." He nods his head towards Mike and Eleven. Max turns around and laughs. 'They basically are eating each other's faces' 
Max turns back around and starts laughing. Max and Y/n had a laughing fit. They had to go sit down. The slow song Finally, ended and they could make fun of Eleven and Mike. For the rest of the night Max and Y/n made fun of Mike, ate snacks, and talked about Max's shitty older brother, Billy.
