more than friends

i hate my life.

guys, i'm so sorry i haven't been posting lately!! i've been working on another story "the summer of sadness", another story, "just a bet" (not out yet), a different story on a different app called "dead or alive?", an essay for school, (i have to do it, it's for a grade ugh.), and halloween, so i've been pretty bust lately, but i'll try to upload as much as i can!!!! dw im not dead!!

~i'm to lazy to do all this, so time jump to when the sun has set, and el and max we're back at el's house, hanging out in her room~

"el?" i asked. "yeah?" she said. "can i sleepover?" i asked. "of course." she said smiling. "great." i said smiling.  i looked at the time and saw it was already 11:59 pm, on a school day. "omg el! we gotta go to bed!" i said. "aww.. ok love." she said taking pajamas out of her drawer. "need to borrow some pj's?" she asked me. "yeah, please." i said as she handed me shorts and an oversized t-shirt. "i'll go change in the bathroom." i said, carrying the clothes into the bathroom. i got changed and went back into el's room. i walked over to her bed, got in it, lay myself down, and pulled the covers over me leaving el room as she turned the lights off. then she got in bed with me, and cuddled me. i smiled, and hugged her, falling asleep.

~the next morning~

el's pov

i woke up to my alarm blaring. "ugh!" i groaned, reaching for my alarm, but then i stopped. i couldn't reach my alarm, something was stopping me. turns out that something was just max. i looked down, and just smiled. max was hugging onto me very tightly, and was still asleep. my alarm kept beeping and blaring, so i had a plan. i unwrapped max's arms from my waist, and laid her down on the other side of my bed carefully, with hopes of not waking up. then i turned my alarm off, and closed my eyes for a second, when i felt movement. "max?" i asked, looking at her to see her tossing and turning. (SOME PLAN EL-) "max!" i said again. then she practically jumped up from laying down, breathing shakily, looking frightened. "max, what's wrong?!" i asked her, trying to calm her down. "n-no-nothing.." she said, but i could tell she was lying. "max, love, tell me what's wrong. i can help, i'm here for you." i told her.c'mon, we have to get ready for school." i said, grabbing her hand and pulling her outta bed. i examined my drawers, and thought "nope. lemme go look in my closet." i walked over to my closet, and walked into it. (in the new house, with joyce, jonathan, will, hopper, and el, el had gotten the biggest kid room, with a walk in closet) i examined it, and saw a really pretty matching outfit, that was pants and a tank top. i quickly grabbed it and examined it. the pants and tank-top were white, with blue stripes going down it. the tank-top had ruffled thingy majigers where the sleeves would be. i walked out of my closet with the outfit, and saw max looking through my drawers. "find anything you like?" i asked her. she shook her head no, and i walked out into the bathroom to change.

~7 mins later, el is changed, has her hair ready, face washed, and is eating eggos while putting her shoes and socks on, and max is in the bathroom, changing and doing her hair~

"so, how was your night?" hopper asked. "good!" i said. "that's great, kiddo." he said, setting a plate down for max. just as he walked away, i heard a door open to see the most beautiful girl in the world walking out of the bathroom, wearing a white tanktop from lululemon, obviously, navy blue shorts from lululemon, white long nike socks, and white and black air jordans, no sweatshirt or sweater, her hair up in a messy bun. she sat down next to me, about to take a bite of her eggos when i stopped her. "m-max..." i whispered. "yes?" she whispered back, staring into my eyes. "y-you lo-look gorgeous!" i whispered back. "aww, thanks love! you too!" she said smiling. we both picked our forks up and continued to eat and drink our waters.

~25 mins later, the girls had just gotten out of hopps car, at school~

max's pov

as el and i walked into school, i felt someone grab me by my shoulder, causing me to jump up, and turn around getting ready to punch someone. "lucas?! what do you want?!" i asked, in an annoyed tone. "come here!" he said sternly, ripping my hand away from el's and taking me behind the school. "what the hell dude?!" i screamed. then he punched me straight in my face. i quickly threw my fist at him, but he pushed me to the ground before i could kill him. "WHAT IS WRONG YOU BI- i yelled, but he cut me off. "your cheating on me with el!" he yelled. "were not dating! i broke up with you 3 months ago!" i yelled back at him. "i don't care! admit it, admit it!" he screamed.

those words made me think of what had happened the past few weeks. el and i fought. i got seriously injured. i had a major panic attack and coughed up blood. i collapsed onto will. i kissed my best friend. "a-admit what...?" i asked. "admit that your dating el, and that your a lesbian!" he yelled. "..." i couldn't think of anything to say. "fine! i admit it." i yelled. "i'm sorry max." he said again. "for what?" i asked. "for this!" he said as he punched me, and pushed me into the side of the school. "ALSO YOUR OUT OF THE PARTY!" he screamed running off.

i couldn't help it. i just sat down, leaning against the school and cried. cried my heart out. i was bleeding, and could see el's shirt getting soaked by my tears, and blood was trickling down my face onto her shirt. i just sat there and cried for about 7 minutes, and then i got up, wiped my tears away, wiped the blood off of me and walked back towards the school. 'crying's for babies max, i'm not a baby." i kept saying to myself. i felt so bad, getting blood all over her white shirt.

i ran into school, to see el standing by her locker. i quickly ran up to her and tapped her on the shoulder. "hey el!" i exclaimed. "hey, max!" she said turning to look at me. "why are you crying?!" she asked in a concerned tone. "oh.. no reason.." i said shrugging. just then, the bell, rang. "oh let's go!" i said, grabbing her by the arm as we ran to our class. once we got in the classroom, we took our seats and noticed there was a sub. i went over to el's desk, and made sure the sub didn't see me. then i whispered something to el about the sub, and we both started laughing uncontrollably.
