Just the Two of Us | elmax!!

chapter 35

GUYS I MIGHT END THIS STORY SOON... if i can figure out a way to end it..

4 months later! (big time skip..)

"SUPRISE!" dustin, lucas, el, mike, and will yell as i walk into lucas's living room

the yelling startles me and it takes a minute for my brain to adjust to what's going on.

i look around the room and lock eyes with el.

i smile as they all run up to hug me.

"happy birthday maxy!" lucas says giggling.

only el calls me maxy, once she said it in front of the others and they've been saying it to tease us.

i roll my eyes plaufully. "thanks" i giggle.

the others say happy birthday and we sit down on the couch. el rests her head on my shoulder.

"my mom ordered pizza!" lucas says.

"thanks!"

we play some games and ear chips and more candy while we wait for the pizza to arrive.

"let's play never have i ever! or truth or dare!"

"why not both?"

we play games for hours, eat pizza, candy, chips, watch movies, eat cake, open gifts, more birthday party stuff.

best birthday EVER.

now that i'm sixteen, i can try to get a job!

i've made $128 out of babysitting these past few months. i have it in a saving box under my bed.

i also, umm.

i planned on running away.

which, i know probably not the best idea. but i am not moving whatsoever.

Nancy has a job at Hawkins post, well she did... but she knows some people who were interns at Hawkins post and ending up starting up their own small business's. Nancy is willing to talk to them about getting me a job. or Robin says i could probably work with her and steve at the VHS thing store with them. i don't know what the store is called.

--- 3 days later

Nancy found me a job at a ice-cream shop in the plaza, the plaza was built after the mall burnt down.

working at a ice cream shop will constantly remind me of robin and steve.

hey, at least i can work until i can pay for university.

3 1/2 years until i go to university!

filler chapter!
