It was 2 months later and mike a will have gotten closer within the 2 months

It was kind of like how they were before El and mike started dating , well now it was Halloween day and mike and Will had plans to hang out at mikes house and have a sleepover and watch horror movies and eat a shit to of candy

Anyways will and mike were in his first period class English and they were basically doing nothing just watching a movie since everyone finished there projects early

and through-out the movie mike was paying attention to the movie while Will wasn't he was just drawing in his sketch book

"Hey what are you drawing" mike leans towards Will looking at wills sketch book

"I'm not sure I wouldn't call it 'drawing' I would says I'm just sketching I'm jest letting the pencil do it's job" will says and shrugs his shoulders

"We'll it looks good I like it, it looks like a garden" mike says while tilting his head

Will puts down his pencil and grabs the sketchbook and he tilts his head looking at his drawing

"It actually dose" will chuckles and smiles at mike

"Well I love your garden will" Mike returns the smiles

" do you want to try?" Will asks offering mike his sketchbook and pencil

"Oh, I'm not good at drawing in more of a writer than a drawer"

"Oh come on you can't be that bad" will says and gives mike his sketchbook and pencil

"Here try it out, trying never hurts anybody" will says

"What would I even draw?" mike ask looking at the sketchbook confused

"Draw a flower, add on to my garden!" Will smiles

"Ok, but I'm ruining one of your pages because I'm a horrible drawer will" mike laughs and starts drawings

"It's fine, an mike you can't be that bad!" Will laughs

"It already looks fucking ugly" mike says looking at his half drawing

"Mike its not that bad, come on finish it up I want to see how it looks" will smiles

"If you insist" mike says and jokingly rolls his eyes

2 minutes pass and mike if finally done with his flower but to him it looks more like a bush

"I'm done, I did horrible my flower looks like a fucking bush" mike says showing Will his drawing

"Oh?" Will says looking at the drawing

"See it's bad" mike says

"Mike it's not bad! Come on your just not a drawer" will says

"That's what I told you I'm more of a writer than a drawer" mike says

"Yeah, you are really good at writing, like for the last project how you made me read you essay to make sure it was good, it was a really good plus's the teacher said the minimum words was like 700 and you wrote 1,000 words Mike" will says and mike rolls his eyes jokingly

"Yeah whatever, are you still able to spend the night today?" mike asks

"Of course, I wouldn't miss out on tonight" will smiles and mike returns the smile

"Yeah I'm exited for tonight, since I get to spend Halloween with my best bud" Mike smiles and nudges wills shoulder

"Whatever mike!" Will laughs and playfully rolls his eyes
