5. I'll walk you home.
✨✨✨
El was sat next to Mike as they watched a cheesy film - Dirty Dancing from 1987. Mike wasn't a big fan of the so-called 'classic', but when he watched it with El and saw her face light up, he knew it was worth it.
They watched Frances "Baby" Houseman do the final dance with Johnny Castle (which is how Nancy and El came up with the nickname 'Johnny' for Jonathan). Mike hadn't been paying any attention to the tape that was playing when El looked up at him.
"Hi," he reached up and gently stroked her soft cheek. He was so lucky to have her in his life.
"Hi," she whispered and reached over to run her fingers through his black hair - which was a huge comparison to his pale, white face and his freckled cheeks.
✨✨✨
Mike rewound the tape and looked back at his girlfriend as he smiled happily at her.
"I'll walk you home," Mike said, holding her hand, once the tape had finished rewinding.
She smiled happily at Mike and nodded, allowing him to walk her home. The pair smiled and walked up the stairs to get their coats and shoes
" MOM! I'M WALKING JANE HOME!" Mike shouted, taking his coat off the hook and putting it around him. Followed by helping El into hers.
"BE BACK HOME FOR DINNER, MICHAEL!" His mom shouted back from the kitchen.
"El's going home?" Holly walked up to him and started to pout.
"Go say bye to her then," Mike said, his little sister then ran through the house and straight into his girlfriend's arms.
✨✨✨
Mike and El stood outside El's home with the Byers and Hopper. Mike smiled, it wasn't going to be his last time seeing his girlfriend - there is only a train ride apart. They were going to take it in turns to see each other over the upcoming weekends at each other's Universities.
"This isn't goodbye, El, even though we don't say goodbye anymore," Mike said, reaching out and taking her face in his hands. She smiled at him, but it didn't reach her eyes like it should.
"I know, Mike." She said, softly, almost reverting back to the state she was when he first met her in 1983.
"We're going to see each other every weekend. I am always going to be with you, even with the amount of distance that is going to be between us." Mike said, wrapping her up in a tight hug.
