"El! Get the hell away from him!" I say, running up to el and pulling her away "this is going to end. You have been so damn weird, making mike uncomfortable, im sick of it! Get out of here!" I point to the door and she goes through the house to leave

"Its really not a big deal.." mike says
"Oh, so its not a big deal that the sweet, jokey, kind amazing el jane hopper is all sexual and all over you? Bull"
Mike looks at the ground beside his
"Im sorry..its just..she really cant do that to you. Do you actually like her? Because if you do then its fine. And I-"

"No! What! Ew of course not, Im the thing that you are"

Everyone stares and mike. Drifting there eyes between the both of us "did I..did I hear that right Micheal..scissor..hands..?" Lucas says, still shocked
"What do you mean" mikes confused
"Heyy scissor hands thats kinda catchy. Yo bro Michael Scissorhands" Dustin says
"Mike, let me get this straight. Your the thing that will is. You like the same people will likes?" Max days
"Yeah. Im day. Or nay. Or was it goodbye sexual? Wait I cant remeber"
"Wills gay" max days
"Yeah but just boys"
"Thr boys gay then. Settled"

Max, Lucas and Dustin form a little circle. I walk over to mike

"Wow. You were pretty brave for that. I will not lie at all"
"I-I didnt think you were lying"
"No no! I wasnt lying in the sentance. I was telling the truth and stuff"
"Oh ok. But what do you mean im brave?"
"Coming out can be hard. Theres homophobic people, and plus its the 80's. Things'll change, but not overnight" will says, he walks away to join the circle and ruffles mikes now very soft hair

"Hey guys, whats up? Wacha talking about" will says
"Wanna go to star court at the weekend, Saturday 9am?"
"Yeah! Sure! I'll go ask mike"
He turns around to walk over to mike, but he was directly behind him so they were now closely face to face and got lost in eachothers eyes

"Will! Wake the hell up! Jesus" Dustin says
"Sorry.. did you hear the stuff we talked about? You up for it?"
"Yeah, sure I guess. Will el be there"

Everyone looks at eachother

"Inviting her would be mean. But not inviting her would also be em mean.." Lucas says
"As much As i love her, maybe we just shouldn't tell her" max says
"Im in" we all say

We all put out hands in the middle. (Apart from mike, he kind just puts his hand floating on top so he doesnt cut anyone) and lift them all up in the air

"Do ya'll wanna go home now? My mum wants me" will says
"Yeah! Sure! I didnt realise how long its been" Lucas says
"We'll be off" Dustin says , in a posh British accent, bowing

They wave goodbye

Will goes inside, without mike, he needs to do homework and mike wants to explore the small town

°°°

Mike walks around town. Theres man dogs, many shops etc.

Theres this one dog thats pretty over grown. Mike slowly walks towards it so he doesnt frighten it, and starts trimming his hairs

He then starts getting carried away and gives the dog a very pretty haircut

An old lady, probably the owner of the dog, walks round the corner and sees

"What are you.." and then she gets amazed by what hes done

"Wow. Whats your name? What happened to your hands son?" She says, approaching the nervous young boy

"They're scissors.."
"You have talent, boy"
She pats him on the shoulder and goes inside, with her dog

He walks around the town a little more and decides to go back to wills.

Wills just finished his chemistry homework. Hea good at chemistry exams for some reason, but hes no good at class work and shit like that..

Then mike comes into the room "hey will!"
"Hi mike! I just finished my homework. Wanna do something?"
"Yeah..wanna chat?"
they both sit on the bed

"Where are you gonna sleep tonight?" Will says
"I dunno. Ive now learnt that sleeping with people who arent your parents or siblings is weird. Im sorry" Mike says  (before u say abt the siblings, it's perfectly normal to sleep with them in hotels if u couldnt get two beds, or when ur parents arent around and u have a nightmare or something)
"Hey, its fine, it didnt make me uncomfortable. I really dont mind, but you cant sleep here every single night"
"Can I still sleep on a mattress?"
"Yeah! Obviously! I wouldnt make you sleep on the hard rock floor would I?"
"I dunno."
"Hey, mike, you can trust me, I promise, with all of my heart. Your my friend. I canr do thay to a friend" friend..of course just a 'friend' not only did this bother mike, but will didnt like the word 'friend' either
'I-I'll go get a mattress for you, ok!" Will says, and rushes to the storage room

He brings a mattress to the room and plops it on the floor

He then makes it, he gets a velvet red bed set and makes the bed

"Is that comfy?"
"Yes. Thank you"
"If you ever need me, wake me up. I love my sleep, but anything at all, just wake mw up. Scared? Wake me up? Wanna eat some coco puffs? Wake me up. Wanna sneak to the arcade? Wake me up!" They both laugh

"Oor..you can just hop in bed with me if you're to scared I guess. Eithers fine, I promise" will gives a reassuring smile to mike and he smiles back

"This day as flew by fast. Its literally already the evening. I.am.exhausted..im gonna hey ready now"

Will gets ready for sleeping, snd shortly after gets in his bed to then fall asleep in

"Goodnight, will"
"Goodnight, mike"
