Mike woke up to an empty spot right next to him. Confused, Mike sat up to check the time.

His alarm clock read 06:32. Mike knew Will never got up at 6 am so he quickly sat up and went to the kitchen. In the kitchen he found a note that read,

Dear Mike,

I know you're probably confused right now but I'm ok. I'm currently with Max right now and I'll be back at 10. I left some pancakes in the fridge for you that I made. Sorry if I scared you. I love you ❤︎︎

Love, Will Byers(Wheeler)

Mike smiled. He went into the fridge and grabbed the container that looked like it consisted of 5 pancakes. He opened the container and saw another note that read, 'I love you! ☺︎︎' Mike smiled and started eating the pancakes.

"I'm still mad at you for waking me up at 6 am just to help you get Mike a gift." Max complained.

"Well you're the second closest person in the party to Mike so I need your help."

"Get him like records or something." Max complained half asleep.

"No I want to get him more. I already got him 5 records for Christmas." Will rolled his eyes as he shook Max awake.

"Buy him plane tickets to London or something." Max said as she gained energy. "He's always saying how he wants to go to London."

"Perfect! I'll call the airport here so he doesn't suspect anything!" Will said as he picked up the phone besides Max's couch and dialled the Airports number.

"Great! Can I go back to sleep now?" Max yawned as she laid down on her couch.

"Nope I promised Mike I'd be back at 10." Will laughed as he grabbed Max's arm and yanked her off the couch.

"Fine then let's go to the bar." Max groaned.

"At 6 in the morning?"

"Yes. Now come on." Max stated as she dragged Will out of the house.

"Wait I still have to buy the plane tickets."

Mike had just finished his pancakes and he's now working on his book which he is almost done writing. But he's stuck on something. He gives up, grabs a beer and watches Friends until Will gets home.

"One of us have to stay sober enough to drive the other home." Will stated as they walked through the double doors of the bar.

"I will." Max said as she noticed the bar is practically empty.

"It's your idea to come here and you're going to be the one who stays sober?" Will asks. "Fine by me."

"Ok Will you've had 10 shots of vodka. It's time to go home now." Max said as she grabbed Will off the chair he was sitting on. "You probably already ruined Mikes plans for roller skating."

"Fiiiineee." Will slurred. (I'm sorry idk what being drunk is like😭)

Max drove into a parking spot at the apartment complex and got Will out of the car.

Max held Will the whole time as they made it to Mike and Wills apartment.

"Key?" She asked.

"It should be unlocked." Will laughed as he stumbled.

Max opened the door to see Mike drinking a beer on the couch.

"Oh no. Do I have to deal with two drunk idiots?" Max rolled her eyes.

"No. I'm not drunk. This is only my seco- wait Wills drunk?" Mike asked as he stood up. (When writing this I kept writing "Drunko" instead of "drunk")

"Very!" Will yelled as he grabbed on to Mike.

"Stop exaggerating Will. You only had 10 shots. It takes me 13 shots to act like you." Max rolled her eyes.

"He's probably acting like this because he has never gotten drunk before." Mike said as he picked up Will. "Thanks for bringing him home."

"Yeah no problem! Just come by to get his car or something tomorrow?"

"Yep!" Mike replied as Will fell asleep in his arms. Max left and Mike took Will to their room and set him on the bed. "I can't believe you got drunk at fucking 10 in the morning." Mike whispered then sighed. He laid down next to Will and hugged him and went to sleep as well.
