A/N: Literally sobbing as I try and write El and Mike's reunion lmao I'm not really sure what it is but this couple just gets to me, no matter how many times I watch their scenes I always end up crying, I love them so much-
"Eleven." Mike breathed as he approached her.
"Mike." She was hugging him in an instant.
"Is that?..." Max questioned curiously.
Oscar nodded with a grin. "It's her."
Mike broke their hug after a few moments, tears running down his cheek as he grinned. "I never gave up on you. I called you every night. Every night for-"
"353 days." She grinned tearfully. "I heard."
Mike's eyes widened. "Why did you tell me you were there?"
"Because I wouldn't let her." Hopper chimed in suddenly, getting everyone's attention.
He stormed over, glaring down at her. "The hell is this? Where have you been?"
"Where have you been?" She hissed. But he pulled her into a hug, which she returned without trouble.
Mike's eyes widened in realization. "You've been hiding her." The others tensed. "YOU'VE BEEN HIDING HER THIS WHOLE TIME!" He punched Hopper, making Hopper shove him back.
"Hey, hey!" Hopper protested, grabbing his arm. "Let's talk. Alone." He snapped, dragging Mike to the other room.
Dustin and Lucas hugged El tightly. "We talked about you almost everyday." Dustin assured her.
"We missed you." Lucas added.
When their hug broke, El frowned and suddenly shoved her hand in Dustin's mouth. "You have teeth."
He grinned. "You like these pearls?" He purred at her, making her alarmed.
Oscar smacked him on the back of the head. "What is wrong with you?" He snapped.
El approached him, looking him up and down. "Handsome." She told him.
He smiled. "Is this your new style now?" He questioned.
She smiled back, nodding a little. "A reminder of my past, a part I want to keep."
"Well it looks awesome." He insisted.
"Bitchin'." She told him.
He choked out a laugh. "Okay, bitchin'." He agreed.
"You looked after him. And kept him believing." She told him softly. "Thank you." She suddenly hugged him.
Oscar smiled tearfully as he hugged her back. "Thank you."
When their hug broke, Max approached her hesitantly, smiling and holding out her hand. "Eleven? I'm Max."
Eleven stared her down...almost angrily? And stormed passed her to hug Joyce, leaving her crushed.
"...Give it time." Oscar mumbled, trying to comfort her. Max just nodded.

They filled El in on everything that's happened, and were trying to figure out a plan to close the gate.
Which meant they needed to get El to the gate.
"It's not just about the gate though, even if El can do it, what will happen to Will?" Oscar questioned. "We can't close the gate until we know it won't kill him."
Joyce stared down in thought, before her eyes widened. "Hold on." She got up and headed to Will's room, making them follow.
In his room a fan was on and the window was open to make the place chilly. "He likes it cold." Joyce commented. "That's what Will kept saying."
