El smiled looking in the mirror. Her regular self couldn't win Mike Over. Maybe hot as fuck El could. Maybe Max was right. Maybe she just needed to change her image to get him to fall for her.
She was wearing a purple crop top, with ripped black Jean short shorts. Her blonde wavy hair half up half down. Her make up done heavily, bright red lipstick on. No glasses. She got contacts. She smiled spraying on a new perfume and heading downstairs to meet Max.
"Hold shit! You did it!" Max smiled while clapping.
"Is it okay?" El asked nervously.
"Are you kidding?! Your got as hell El! If he doesn't think so I really think he is gay" Max laughed.
El shook her head followings to her car. Will always left early for a/v club with the boys. So Max always picked up El.
They drove to the school in which the girls agreed to meet the boys in the a/v room at 740. And it was 740.
"Just pretend you don't care. That drives boys wild" Max laughed.
El nodded taking a deep breath fixing her hair
Max entered first swinging the door open "your favorite girls have arrived!" Max yelled walking in.
"Maxine! Hello!" Dustin sang looking up, he was the only one that did. Mike, Lucas, and Will were occupied with fixing who knows what.
"Holy shut! El what happened to you?!" Dustin yelled.
With that, Lucas and Will.looked up.
"Woah!! New year new El?" Will asked
El iled nodding her head.
"I-- I just needed a change" she smiled.
"Yeah Mike, what do you think?" Max asked smuggly.
Mike hummed looking up, his eyes finally landing on El. To say he was flustered was an understatement. Who was she doing this for
"What do you think of Els new look?" Max asked again.
"Oh, cool I guess?" He said questionably.
El sighed looking down.
"Cool?! Try hot as fuck! " Dustin laughed.
El smiled "Thank you"
Max rolled her eyes at Mike.
How could he not see this was all for him?
The bell rang and it was homeroom.
"Shall we?" Dustin asked to El holding out his arm
El laughed looping hers through his "We shall"
Thank God Dustin's last name was Henderson and hers was Hopper so they had homeroom together.
They both sat down in the front row.
"So. I hate to ask. But. Is this for Mike?" He asked motioning at her.
She sighed putting her head on the desk "Why is it so obvious tp everyone expect him" She groaned.
"Mikes never been a relationship guy, you know that, the other day we tried asking but he saw your his friend and it's all that you'll ever be"
El sucked in a breath turning her head to her desk so no one could see. She let a few tears out quietly. That's it. He couldn't even picture to try a relationship with her. Wow. She took a deep breath lifting her head up. Fine. At least she knew. She was gonna try to move on. Friends. She couldn't lose her best friend. Even if he didn't feel the same way. He was her best friend and she would never lose him.
