Lime Eyes - Eleven Hopper + Max Mayfield

Chapter 3: Pretty and Prettier

November 8, 1983

LILIANA

I wake up looking at the window of the Wheeler Basement. This is the first time I slept here, not much when we are still friends. At nights playing Dungeons I and Dragons, after I left them. The only contact I had with them was with Will.

Mike goes down to the basement and calls me.

"Lili, breakfast upstairs!"

"Okay, I am coming!"

Mike leaves the basement, as I am removing my blanket. When put Eleven's arms in a pillow, she suddenly wakes up. Looking at me with those morning eyes.

"Morning El,"

"Morning, Lili,"

I am going to leave the sleeping bag, but the girl holds my hand. I look at her doe eyes, it's cute though looking through it.

"Eleven, I am going to leave right now. Going upstairs to get breakfast, okay?"

She nods

"I am getting you some,"

And left the basement. Going upstairs to see Mike.

"Breakfast is going to get cold,"

I nodded and took my seat, to see Mrs. Wheeler standing

"Mike, breakfast! Oh, Lili. You come in for breakfast?"

I nodded and we grabbed some from the fridge and some eggos.

Mike puts some in the waffle toaster, and we waited till it becomes cooked.

Mike grabs one of the eggos from his pocket while putting the other three on the plate.

"What are you going to do with that?"

"Keeping one for Eleven,"

He said, is he keeping one eggo for Eleven's breakfast? Fuck no!

"I am getting a different batch,"

I grabbed 4 more eggos from the box and put them in the toaster. While Mike is going to the table, eating his eggos.

"Slow down, Mike. That's disgusting,"

Nancy calls and I laugh. Then Mike does something

"Do a lot of studying last night?"

"Yeah, actually, I did," she says

"With Steve?" I called out and Mike laughs at it.

"What the hell, Lili?"

"Language!"

Their dad called out.

"What was your test on again? Human Anatomy?"

I laughed, definitely it was my brother, Steve Harrington. Then I hear their chairs banging, they are playing with their feet again. Both Mike and Nancy, I don't like them because of that.
