            hi popping in here real quick! slight mention of panic attacks so if your sensitive to that you can skip this chapter bc its really just filler. love you! stay safe!     

 Mike and Will ran downstairs and into the kitchen where everyone else was. "Lucas! Can you cut it while I get plates?" Will asked, walking towards the cabinet while everyone else took a seat at the dining table. Mike sat next to El and made sure that there was a spot on the other side of him for Will. Once everyone was severed they spent no time digging to their meal. Everyone except for El, who couldn't help but notice that Will's hair was way more messy than it normally was.

 "Will, can I talk to you for a second?" She said, quiet enough that it couldn't be heard by Lucas or Dustin who were probably arguing over something D&D or comic book related. Will nodded and gave Mike a look, saying "I'll be right back."  El had always noticed they could always communicate with each other just using looks. Like they just had telepathy. Mike nodded and joined the conversation that Lucas, Dustin and now Max were having. 

Will was practically dragged into the bathroom by his sister. "Ellie! what's going on?" Will giggled. El spun him around so he could see himself in the mirror. Just then he noticed how messy his hair had gotten. It wasn't that  noticeable but, it was much messier than it normally was. "Oh shit" Will said, immediately trying to fix it. 

El giggled seeing her brother's reaction. Once she noticed that will's "fixing" didn't do all that much, she stopped him. "Stop right there. A.) You are not getting out of here until you tell me what happened to get your hair all fucked up. And don't say nothing because I know you and you are a horrible lair." Will's shoulder dropped in defeat but nonetheless, he let his sister continue on, "And, B.) I think somehow you made your hair even messier so I'm gonna fix it." El said, trying to get a rise out of Will. "Okay, It is one thing to say I'm a horrible liar but it is another to question my hair styling abilities."  Will said in a sarcastic tone. El laughed, "Still, it could be better. Lemme fix it." 

Will sighed, preparing himself for the second "Mike talk" of the day. "Well, when we were making the pizza Max walked in on us flirting and Mike was like, hugging me from behind." Will said, blushing slightly as he was recalling the events. El nodded, signaling for Will to go on. "The entire time she was in the kitchen, he stayed silent and I thought that was weird because you know how much Mike engages in any conversation." El nodded again, agreeing with Will. "And even after she left, it was like he couldn't talk. I could recognize the look he was giving me." 

El knew what Will meant. Growing up she would have awful panic attacks and Will was the only one that could calm her down. While Joyce and their babysitters Steve and Robin would try to do their best, it would almost never work without Will there. Needless to say, she knows what having a panic is like and it's not fun. "Anyway, I took him up to my room so he could be in a quiet place and let him do what he needed to do until he was ready to talk." Will explained. "Okay, so, how does this lead up to your hair getting messed up?" El asked. Will was hoping she forgot about that part. 

"Well, basically, he said that him freaking out "wasn't fair to me" and I put my hand on his checks to get his attention and he leaned closer and we started kissing and he must've started playing with my hair." El faked gagged. "Oh shut up, you always say you want every. single. detail. " Will said, rolling his eyes. "I'm kidding! Now come on, I don't want my pizza to get cold." El said, opening the door. Will followed her all the way back to the kitchen. "Hey." Mike said, as Will sat down. "Hi." Will replied. "WHO WANTS TO PLAY TRUTH OR DARE?" Max practically screamed throughout the kitchen. "As soon as I get my hearing back." El replied.
