"i should've said something."

july, 1985
NANCY DROVE the kids to the hospital, with jonathan, and they walked into the hospital, hearing the front-desk lady talking on the phone, supposedly with her friend.
nancy tried to walk past her, with the group following behind her.
"whoa, whoa, whoa! excuse me!" the lady stops them. "where do you think you're going?"
all of them stop their tracks.
"oh, um.. i was just going to visit my grandma again." nancy replies, with an awkward smile. "and— and, this.. this is my family."
"extended." lucas adds with a smile.
"i don't care who they are." the lady tells nancy, a bit harsh too. "you know the rules. two visitors at a time."
"yeah, but-"
"two!"
nancy and jonathan decided for just them to go, since there could only be two at a time.
the rest of them started doing their own thing, and mike went up to the vending machine with lucas.
mike inserted a coin in there, but it got stuck in the vending machine.
"oh, come on you piece of shit!" mike curses.
him and lucas start kicking the vending machine.
but suddenly, the vending machine just, had all the snacks come out of it.
mike and lucas looked over to y/n, who was already staring at them, reading a magazine, with max and el across from her.
y/n wiped the blood off her nose, then looked back at her magazine.
"thanks." mike tells the girl.
y/n just looks up at him, nods her head, and looks back down at her magazine.
mike kept glancing over at y/n, as him and lucas squatted down to get the snacks that fell from the vending machine.
"dude, i think that was it." lucas says to mike.
"that was what?" mike asks in confusion.
"the olive branch." lucas whispers.
"the what?" mike asks as he furrowed his brows.
lucas furrowed his brows too, then turned to mike.
"oh my god." lucas says in disbelief. "you're hopeless."
lucas puts a hand on mike's shoulder. "okay, i'll distract max and y/n. get you an opening." lucas whispers. "then, talk to her. all right?"
