Mike's pov
As I looked at El's blank face I couldn't help but sigh. I said something dumb again. It's all I seem to do nowadays with her. I don't mean to, obviously I don't but no matter what I say it's always somehow wrong.
"Really Mike?" She's mad.
"El I-" She shook her head,
"Don't." She sighed cutting me off, "I'll see you later Mike." And with that said she left my room. I didn't even try stop her, maybe I should've but I just...didn't.
"Mike dinner!" I heard my mom call from downstairs. I couldn't help but groan.
"Where's Nancy?" I mumbled to my dad sitting down opposite him. He shrugged his shoulders looking towards the doorway waiting for my mom to come in with dinner and eventually she did. We ate in silence, as usual.
"El left?" My mom asked.
"Mhm." I nodded continuing my food.
"Another fight?" My dad finally spoke letting out a small laugh. He did this a lot. Snarky comments that aren't funny at all. I slammed my cutlery down and walked out back to my room. On my way up the stairs all I could hear was my mom arguing with my dad. Sometimes I wonder why they're still together. All they do is argue. I wonder if it wasn't for Nancy, Holly and Me if they'd still be together. It's bad to say but they're not in love. I don't remember a time where they were to be honest. Maybe that's why I can't do right with El.
I grabbed my phone and scrolled until I finally found their name.
"Can you come over?" My thumb hovered over the send button. 'Fuck it' I whispered to myself sending the message to my best friend.

Numb. I felt numb. Ever needed to cry but just can't get any tears out? It's gotten to that point.
"You're still in bed?" My mom sighed as she peered into my room. I can't even get myself to get out of bed, not for anyone or anything.
They were together again and...and I wished it was me. It hurt so much and I couldn't even tell anyone about it. I tried to talk to him about it. So many times but he's just SO oblivious. He's a pain and I hated him. But truth is, no matter how hard I tried I could never hate him. So I'm left with the hurt and it really hurt. All I needed was his comfort...just him but I can't.
I watched a figure rush past my door. Eleven. She was back? Already? As her door slammed I could tell she was mad. As selfish as it sounds I don't even get why they're together. They always seem to be arguing. But maybe that was just love, love makes you...crazy and maybe arguing is their crazy.
I jumped slightly as I was snapped back into reality by my phone buzzing.
A text from...him
"Can you come over?" My stomach filled with butterflies as I felt my heart get warmer.
"Omw." I tapped send and almost jumped out of bed. My legs gave way slightly as this was the first time all day I've gotten up and I rushed downstairs.
"Will?" I heard my mom call but it was too late I was already out the door and soon enough on my bike.
Mike's mom let me in. I gave her a soft smile and made my way up the stairs to his room. I gave the door a small knock and entered before he could reply. He looked up from his pillow and gave me a soft smile. Before lifting the duvet up allowing me to crawl in next to him.
Neither of us said anything. I didn't know what to say and I didn't want to push him. He'd tell me when he's ready. His head was rested on my chest, mine on his head. I felt his look up so I looked down into his eyes. Moments like this I wonder what goes through his mind. As dumb as it sounds, sometimes I hoped that when he looked at me like this he thinks, 'shit, he's pretty.' but he wouldn't, I'd never believe he would.

I placed my hand in his and held it tightly. It reassured me things would be okay and that we'd make it another night. I get scared of losing people. Especially since I know it would be my fault.
But right now, in his arms I felt a little safer.
