Will:-

He looked handsome.

I was lost looking at him, he was wearing a pale blue button-up and a white pair of pants, he looked beautiful. Almost majestic, thinking to myself how I got myself a boyfriend like this?

"Hello, Pretty," he said, leaning in to give me a quick hug.

"Hey, come in," I smiled and led him in. Mom came over, wiping her hands on a towel. "Mike, it's so good to see you. Come in, come in."

Mike stepped inside, and I noticed Hopper standing up from the couch. "Hello, Mike. Nice to finally meet you," Hopper said, extending his hand.

Mike shook his hand firmly. "Nice to meet you too, Mr. Hopper"

"Just Hopper is fine," he said with a smile.

"Okay, Hopper," Mike replied, smiling back.

We sat at the dining table, Mom beside Hopper, and Mike and I across from them. Mike looked gorgeous tonight, I'm not even kidding. He looked more mature, elegant, his pale blue shirt highlighting his eyes and his smile radiating warmth. I couldn't help but keep glancing at him while we were eating, trying to be subtle but probably failing miserably. He was chatting easily with Mom and Hopper, while I stayed quiet, just enjoying the moment.

"So, Mike," Mom began, "what are you up to these days?"

"Yeah," Hopper added, "and what are your plans after school?"

Mike smiled, setting down his fork. "Well, I'm currently singing part-time with a local band. We perform at different venues around town. It's something I really love doing. As for after school, I'm thinking of either going to a musical school or studying business. I want to keep my options open."

"Musical school or business, huh?" Hopper nodded appreciatively. "Both sound like exciting paths. Do you have a preference?"

Mike shrugged modestly. "I'm still figuring that out. I just know that I want to pursue something I'm passionate about, whether it's music or business."

Mom leaned in, smiling. "It sounds like you've got a good head on your shoulders, Mike. Following your passion is important."

Mike chuckled, his eyes glancing briefly at me before looking back at Mom. "Thank you, Mrs. Byers."

Hopper grinned. "You know, Will could probably help you with any business courses. He's got a knack for that kind of thing."

I felt my face flush at the unexpected compliment. "Yeah, Will's really smart," Mike said, giving me a wink. "I might just take you up on that, Will."

I smiled shyly, my heart fluttering at his words.

We continued eating, with Mom and Hopper making jokes and everyone laughing. Mike was charming and easygoing, fitting in perfectly with my family. Despite my quietness, I felt a warmth spreading through me, knowing how well Mike and my family were getting along.
