       "I mean, we JUST got back from fighting Vecna, theres no way i could've hurt her feelings so quickly. I haven't even talked to her much!" Mike was pacing around the room, his dark curls bouncing with every step. No matter how long he continued to ramble though, Will was not amused. "Uh huh" he added, picking at the skin from his finger tips. "I just cant imagine i did anything wrong?" He continued. "Usually im pretty good about this stuff?" Will took the opportunity to roll his eyes. "Maybe its not about you?" He tried. "I mean, if you guys haven't talked a lot, then maybe shes having her own problems? As you said we did just defeat Vecna, theres probably a lot she has on her mind right now."

"I don't know" Mike sighed, sitting down next to Will. "It hurts knowing that the person you love doesn't wanna talk to you, I guess. You know what I mean?" He finished looking up at Will. "Yeah...I do" They both stared for a minute looking at each other. He couldn't help the fact that his blood quickly rushed to his cheeks, painting them a faint rose. How badly he knew. And how badly he wanted to- "Hey, dinners ready. It's steak!" Dustin announced, barging in Mikes bedroom. The twos heads snapped up looking at him. "I'm getting the feeling that I interrupted something..." He added, staring at their startled faces. "No we're good. I'm hungry anyway so" Mike answered, standing up. "Alrighty then, not everyones at the table yet so ya'll are good" Dustin said leaving the room. "I hope it doesn't taste like Dustin's moms steak." Will whispered to Mike. He snickered looking back at Will and whispering "I'd rather eat cow shit." They both giggled and followed Dustin downstairs.

It wasn't quite unusual that everyone was eating together at Mikes house. Ever since Vecna, everyone had been hanging out more. Since Mike's house was the biggest, they all tended to stay there. ("They" included Dustin, Mike, Lucas, Will, and Eleven/Jane) Once Mike, Will, and Dustin had all gone downstairs, they headed to the dining room. Eleven was already there, waiting patiently at the table, while Mrs Wheeler set down the food and utensils. "Dustin honey, could you get Lucas too?" Mrs Wheeler asked, trying to get Holly to wash her hands. "Yes ma'am" Dustin said, imitating a salute. He rushed upstairs screaming Lucas's name.

Mike couldn't help but stare as he watched Eleven try to look away. He sighed and Will looked between the two, his face twitching. He nudged Mike a little and whispered "Just try to talk to her after dinner, i'm sure you two will bounce back." Mike smiled weakly at him and went to sit down. He was right, they would just have to talk and they would be back together again. But the look on her face made Mike become increasingly worried.
