—"ARE YOU OKAY ?" mike asked me as i was absentmindedly watching in front of me. i heard him, but i didn't want to answer him. it seems kiddy. but to me it is not. and Lucas and him knows it. he sighed, "listen miranda.. don't take it like that. lucas' sorry." i side eyed him, and chuckled.
"only lucas ?" i raised my brow. "y- yeah" he asked me but i cut him off again. "mike. you wanted me out of the party, too."
"what ? n- no." the boy nervously laughed, "i think you got things confused- wrong." he justified himself. "i was against your departure in the party. i swear."
"if you really was against my departure in the party, you would have reacted, like dustin." i watched him dead in the eyes, he was about to retort but i stopped him. "now's not the time to fight." i stood up. but he took my hand, i watched our intertwined fingers, i removed my hand from his. but he retake mine. "stay." he demanded, as eleven was watching us discreetly.
i sighed and sit back down. "are nancy and Jonathan here ?" dustin, who was sitting in the stands behind us, raised a brow, as mike stood up and went out of the gymnasium to see.
after a moment he ran back in, "they're gone." he stated. "what ?" lucas asked. "nancy and jonathan. his car's gone." mike repeated.
"they're probably just sucking face somewhere." dustin shrugged.
"dustin ew." i scrunched my nose. eleven put her head on my shoulder, as i played with her hair. "gross." lucas commented. "no. no way !" mike exclaimed. "did they go with the chief ?" dustin asked.
mike furrowed his eyebrows,"i don't know."
"no." eleven answered. "what ? did you see them? do you know where they went?" mike asked. "yes." eleven simply answered. "where ? where did they go?" mike questioned the girl. "demogorgon." eleven said. we all shared looks.
mike paced around the gymnasium, eleven was still sitting next to me. lucas and dustin stood up next to the black haired boy who was stressfully walking around the gymnasium. "guys, guys ! this is crazy. we can't just wait around !" he said.
"mike, in case you forgot, we're still fugitives. the bad men are still looking for us." lucas told him, i scoffed. "y'all are, i ain't."
