Max's pov

We went back into class. Troy and I said nothing while walking to the hallway. We opened the door, all eyes were on us of course

I hate when people stare when you walk in. "oh hey kids, sit down" the teacher said. We both sat down

Lucas, Mike and Dustin looked at me for information about what happened in the principal's office. "Troy got a detention and I didn't" I whispered to Mike as Mike told dustin and lucas too

"what happened?" everyone asked Troy and I. Troy looked at me. "Nothing" Troy said annoyed. He was really pissed off not only because he got a detention, but specifically because I didn't get one

The students insisted on wanting to know as usual as the teacher tried to stop them but it wouldn't work. "All of you shut up, I got a detention because of this Dyke bitch" Troy finally said realising he had no other choice.

"Didn't she punch you-" a friend of Troy said. "I know right" Troy said. "He started bothering and insulting her first" lucas said.

"I was just speaking facts you idiot" Troy said angrily. I didn't say anything. I just knew that nothing would change if I talked so I just stayed quiet fighting the urge not to yell at him

Not because I was scared to but because I didn't want to get in trouble. "Enough! All of you, let's go back to the lesson" the teacher hit the desk finally catching our attention and making everyone stop talking

I wouldn't stop thinking about el during the lesson. I tried to stop but I just couldn't. She was on my mind all the time and I can't help it. I started drawing on my notebook for distraction

I missed her smile, those beautiful brown eyes, her cute laugh and the way her eyes light up whenever she's excited about something, how kind she is, how cute and innocent, how sweet she is, how she metle my heart every time I'm around her, the butterflies in my stomach once I feel her touch, her hugs-"

My thoughts were cut off by the teacher calling my name."max, please pay attention" the reacher said. I nodded, not really caring.

El's pov

It was break time, chloe and i went to the bathroom as will and Austin sat on the bench. It was kind of hot so I took off my hoodie as I was wearing a sweatshirt underneath

"oh my god, that sweater is so cute!" chloe said looking at my swearthirt. "Thanks" I said smiling. "where did you get it from? Hawkins has nice clothes huh" she said. "oh um I don't really know.. Max gave it to me" I said. She immediately smiled for some reason

"She did?" she asked smirking. I frowned confused. "oh um.. Yeah? Why are you making that face-" I asked. "Because it's obvious you like her" she said cutting me off. My heart dropped as I felt concerned.

"what-" I asked. "Dont worry about it, I support" she said smiling. My heart was still beating fast trying to process the whole situation.

"Oh um-i don't know, she's my best friend-" I stuttered. "okay one second" she said walking closer to me. She put her hand on my shoulder and looked at me softly

"I don't want you to freak out alright?" she said sweetly. She then put her hand on my chest checking my heartbeat for some reason as I frowned at her actions. She looked up at me and frowned.

"why is your heart beating fast?" she asked softly. "I-I don't know" I said. "okay, I need you to calm down before we talk-" chloe said but we were cut off by someone walking out of a stall

I thought we were alone. The girl just stared at us awkwardly for a second and then walked towards the sinks to wash her hands. Chloe and I looked at each other

Did she hear our conversation? She definitely did el. As she was about to leave chloe spoke. "hey you, could you not tell anyone whatever you heard" chloe said

"It's none of my business to do so" the girl said. I was surprised. "Okay, thank you" chloe said. Then she left. I was so nervous that I couldn't even thank her

I mean, we don't know if she will keep her promise but okay. "Are you okay?" chloe asked me. I nodded. The bell rang. "alright um.. How about we hang out at my place after school? We can talk about it if you want, just know I'm supportive so there's no need to be stressed about it" she said smiling

I smiled back relieved. "Alright, thanks" I said smiling. "okay then, let's go to class" she said. I nodded and left.
