Mikes POV

(The next morning)

"You are free to go, Michael." I hear the nurse say.

"Like, now?" I ask, smiling

"No in a year." She replies sarcastically, "Of course now, go on.

"Yay!! Thank you!" I yell and run out.

Shit how am I gonna get home? I can just call my mum!! Okay, where is a phone box..

I look around and see one in the waiting room of the hospital, and walk over to it. I go to grab the change out of my pockets, but I realise I never changes out of my hospital gown.

I run back to my room and grab my clothes, I head into the bathroom and quickly get changes back into them. I come out (How convenient) of the bathroom and go back to my old hospital room and set my gown on the bed.

I go back to the phone and put in my mums number. It rings a couple times but I get no response

For fuck sake, how am I meant to get home.. Oh! Will! Lets hope he picks up.

I enter in Will's number into the phone and somebody picks up.

"This is the byers residence, El Hopper speaking."

"El! How are you?" I yell, excited to hear from her

"Mike! Where were you? I was worried sick!" She scolds me

"I was in the hospital, did nobody tell you?" I question

"No.." She replies

"Anyway, is Will home? He is the only person that I can think of who has their drivers license" I ask

"Yeah I will get him for you" She tells me

"WIIIIILL, MIKES ON THE PHONE" She screams into her house

"RIGHT, COMING!!" I hear will scream back

"Hey Mike!" I hear from the other side of the phone

"Will!! Hiiii" I smile through the phone

"Whats up?" He asks me

"I have just been let out of the hospital, please can you come pick me up." I say

"Yeah, sure, wait outside for me." He answers

"Thank you so much!! Bye I l-" I cut myself off.

"What?" He sounds confused

"Nothing, bye!!" I hurry, and slam the phone into its holder.

I step outside, thinking about what just happened

Was I really about to tell will I loved him? I mean, didn't I reject him last night.. I wonder if he still wants to be my boyfriend. Oh crap. I still need to break up with El. I had totally forgotten!! Oh no, I dont think she is gonna react well..

I hear the sound of a car coming into the parking lot so I look up and see Joyce's green car pulling up, with Will inside.

"Hey mike, hop in." He says, rolling down the window

"Coming!" I reply, jogging up to the car.

I open the door and sit down, then close the door behind me.

"So are we gonna talk about it or what." I say, looking directly at Will

"Talk about what." He replies blankly

"What happened at your house, where I got sent flying twice!" I say, almost shouting

He jusy stays quiet.

"Will, you have powers!! Why aren't you more happy about this!" I smile, excites

"I-I just don't think I do.. Maybe it was a one time thing.." He replies

"Well why don't we go back to your house and see if you really do have them." I suggest

"How are we gonna find out?" He inquires

"You'll see" I giggle

We sit in silence for a few minutes before will speaks up.

"Oh my god, you know the way all of our windows smashed?"

"Oh shit yeah."

"Well yesterday when I came home from seeing you my mum was finally home and she was all like 'Will oh my god I thought you died!! All the windows are smashed and everything!' and we had to get all new windows but it's fine now, and guess what!!" He yells

"What?" I smile

"My mum got a job from home!! So she will be home most days now!!" He beams

"Finally!!" I yell, excited for him

(Time skip to them
arriving at Will's house)

"Okay, do you have any cans?" I ask him

"Uh, yeah let me check my fridge" He replies

"No, like, empty cans" I chuckle

"Ooooh, yeah! I have one in my room." He smiles

"Great, lets go to your room then!" I announce

We pad down the hallway and head into wills room.

"Okay, I want you to try and lift the can." I tell him

"What? H-"

"I just want you to try. Okay?" I cut him off

He sighs, "Okay.."

I watch as Will looks at the can, and suddenly, it starts to lift

"Holy sh- sugar!!" Will yells, excited

"Oh my god, Will!! You did it!" I yell back

(They practice for
about half an hour)

"

Mike I'm tired.." Will mumbles

"I tell you what, you have a nap, Im gonna go talk to El." I reply

His face goes white, as he knows exactly what I am going to say to her.

"O-Oh, good luck" He attempts to give me a smile

"I'm gonna need it" I chuckle

I walk out of Will's room and walk over El's room, and I knock gently on her door

"Come in" I hear her say gently

"Hey El.." I say quietly

"Mike!!" She squeals

"I wanted to just talk to you about something.." I try and say as gently as I can

"Oh.. what is it?"
