(Elevens POV)

"Mike!", I jumped up and hugged him. It felt like I've been waiting here forever.

"Hey El!"

I sat back down, and that's when things got more serious.

"So, Mike came to tell you something."

I looked over at Mike, "Okay. What is it, Mike?"

"I don't hate you El. I would NEVER hate you. Even if you told ran all my friends off. I would still love you El. No matter what."

When he said that, I felt way better. Except one thing, the feeling came back. Oh no.

"Mike. I don't feel good.", I said fast.

"What's wrong?", Mike said instantly.

"My stomach. It's all...weird."

"Do you feel sick?", Nancy said.

"No it's...it's not bad. It just feels weird."

"Uh, are you gonna throw up?", Said Mike.

"No, I don't think so."

"Does it hurt? In the lower part of your stomach?", Nancy said.

Mike slapped Nancy and said, "Shut up Nancy! She isn't ready for that yet!"

"Jeez Mike! Well...is it-is it all tickly?"

"Yeah. Sort of."

"Here. Mike, can you wait for us in the living room? We'll be out in a minute."

Mike stepped out of the room, staring at me. He looked really scared for me.

"El.", Nancy smiled.

"Do you know what's happening? Am I sick!?"

"No. No, Eleven. You're fine. You're just...your feeling love."

"Love? What's that? Is it bad?!"

"No. It means that you like someone. A lot. That's how Mike feels about you. He loves you. Do you understand yet?"

"A little. What does it mean if he kisses me...and I kiss...him?"

"Oh Eleven! Please tell me when this happens! Alright?"

"Okay. But what does it mean?"

"He loves you. It's fine. You're feeling weird because of Mike. Does he ever turn...like, red? Around you?"

"Oh yeah! That happens a lot!"

"That's his way of feeling what your feeling too. Love. His just is more noticeable."

"Oh. Okay."

"Yeah. Just don't. Don't tell Mike that I explained this to you, okay?"

"Yes."

"Hey. Come back when this ever happens again. Talk to me when anything happens like this. I'll be right here. Now, go on. Talk to Mike."

"Okay...Nan-cy. Thank you."

"Bye!"
