a/n: the song above is the song that is included in this chapter! ITS ONE OF MY FAVOURITE 80s SONGS! So that's why I used it for these cuties

Mike
It's the night before the Snowball and me and El are tucked up in bed.

Turns out my mom trusts us sleeping in the same bed...

Cool!

"Mike." El whispers as she has her eyes closed, trying to sleep.

"Yes Eleven?" I said as I've been watching her sleep, not creepy at all...

"Sing me that song again." She said, as she wanted to hear her favourite song; Missing You by John Waite.

"Every time I think of you,
I always catch my breath.
And I'm still standing here,
and you're miles away.
And I'm wondering why you left."

I sang as I saw El smiling in her sleep, I don't know why she loves this song so much.

"And there's a storm that's raging, through my frozen heart tonight.
I hear your name in certain circles,
and it always makes me smile.
I spend my time thinking about you,
And it's almost driving me wild.
And there's a heart that's breaking
down this long distance line tonight."

I loved singing for El. I do like singing but I didn't really want to take it up professionally. But whenever El wanted to hear singing, I was the man for the job.

"I ain't missing you at all!"

El sang as I mesmerised but her singing voice, we should go for lessons together... That would be amazing.

"El... You're amazing." I said as she blushed.

"You're more amazing." She said, kissing my nose and went back to sleep.

"I love you." I randomly said while staring at her.

"I love you too." She whispered with her eyes still closed.

Next day
Eleven

I woke up and it's the day of the Snowball! I'm so excited.

That song Mike sang me last night... It reminds me so much of him. I don't know why. The song basically represents leaving somebody and not missing them. But the things it says, it makes me think of Michael.

I look at the clock and it says 10:20am! Me and Mike slept in! Another use of language Mike taught me.

"Mike." I whisper as I shake his body to wake him up. He looks deep in his sleep and I don't want to wake him.

He looks so handsome when he sleeps. Like a... Puppy, kind of.

I decide to get up and make myself some eggos before Mike protests. All this week he's gotten up early to make me eggos, but today for some reason he's deep in his sleep.

I wonder what he's dreaming about...

Me? No!

Mike
I stand there at the altar.

Lucas is my best man, Dustin and Will are my Ushers.

"Don't be nervous man." Lucas whispers to me as I continue hyperventilating.

"May everyone stand for the bride!" Joyce shouted, as she's the officiator.

Holly walks in with a lovely pink dress and waves at me. I wave back. She throws flower petals all over the isle.

Nancy walks down, looking fabulous as ever.

Then, there she was.

Holding onto Jonathan's arm.

She had a white fishtail dress and no vail, so I could see her beautiful face. She locked contact with me as she began to cry. I started balling tears already.

She slowly walked up to me, with Jonathan.

"Let's get this over and done with lovebirds." Jonathan said, passing El's hand over to mine. I took it, and I held both hands.

I looked into El's eyes, and I knew this was going to be the best day of my life.

Until everything around us started to go black.

People were disappearing.

No one seemed to notice as everyone's eyes were locked on me and El, and they just disappeared.

El was still looking at me like I was gods gift to earth.

Then

Then

It was another dream.

I looked beside me and El was nowhere to be seen. I looked at my clock, 11:45am. I'd slept in for a long time!

I got up and ran downstairs to see El watching tv, she looked at me and smiled.

"Good morning Mike!" She said as she ran to me and hugged me tight. "I didn't want to wake you because you was deep in your sleep."

"Yeah..." I said as we pulled away to look at each other.

"What was you dreaming about?" She asked.

"Marriage." I said as El titled her head.

"What's... Marriage?"

"It's when two people come together, when they have loved each other for some time, and they decide to take their relationship to the next level, and that's marriage. You make promises to each other that you can't break, and there's a big event with people, and yeah... There's cake." I said with a laugh at the end.

"Who was getting married?"

"Me and you." I said as we both laughed. "One day we will." I whispered.

"What?"

"I didn't say anything." I lied as she nodded. "I can't wait for tonight."

"Me neither."
