First Snow

  Eleven and Mike laughed.
  "That was my favorite part." Mike continued. Eleven smiled.
  "Yeah, mine too." Eleven agreed. Mike sighed.
  "I'm so exhausted." Mike complained.
  "I know, Nancy." Jonathan could be heard from upstairs. Mike perked up. Mike gestured for Eleven to follow, and they creeped up the stairs. Surprisingly, Nancy's door was mysteriously unlocked. He twisted it, and saw Jonathan and Nancy lay beside each other on the bed, laughing like children. Mike raised a brow, then shut the door.
  "She's gonna be in huge trouble." Mike commented, then bounced down the steps, Eleven behind. Eleven flopped onto her bed.
  "Goodnight, El." Mike pecked her forehead, yet Eleven had already drifted to sleep.

Eleven woke up to hear Mike excitedly shouting with Lucas, Will, and Dustin. Eleven rubbed her eyes and changed into her daily clothes (Well, not the canon dress & jacket. Eleven in my AU now has her own clothes since she is somewhat part of their 'family' now.) The steps creek under her feet as she stepped up. She slipped the doorknob open and as she was visible from the living room, Mike turned his head, and he clenched her hand in his and placed her in front of the window.
  "Look! It's the first fall of snow! Well, it's just flurries.. but still!" Mike stated the obvious. Eleven's eyes lit up. It was surprising since Thanksgiving was a day away.
  "We should go out!" Dustin shrieked before jumping outside into the frigid circumstances. Lucas, Will, and Mike did so subsequently. Indecisively, Eleven stepped out. She looked up at the speed of light to see Mike had been propelled back by a snowball. Dustin, Will, and Lucas snickered. Mike whisked off the snow. Eleven's eyes met his and gave a small smile.
  "Hey Eleven, you should join!" Lucas shouted.
  "Yeah," Will and Dustin agreed. Mike got up in stance. Eleven stretched her hand out towards a bulge of snow.. And slowly, a humongous ball which was the size two men combined would emerge. All of them were in awe.
  "Wait, El, no!" Mike shouted. Too late. It had fallen on all of them. There was a complete, still, silence. Eleven ran over worried.
  "Mike?.. Lucas? Dustin? Will?" She used her telekinesis to raise the snow off their bodies. They all got up, stiffly.
  "Okay, time to stop." Lucas said through his teeth. The gang waddled in like penguins.
