73. Take mine.

✨✨✨

With Winter already in Hawkins, it had made yet another appearance, rather quickly, over night. Snow was something El was rather familiar with, . It has been just 1 week since she crashed back into Mike's open arms. And they started dating just

Mike was woken up to his body being shaken slightly roughly. He opened his eyes and saw his beautiful girlfriend.

She'd stayed over the night before after a long night watching Star Wars (again...) and had curled up next to him - in his bed, either of them having a nightmare.

Hopper had allowed El to stay the night, knowing she'd pass out at some point while watching Star Wars. Even though he was scared over this, he knew El was smarter than he originally thought.

"Snow..." She trailed off, after being outside in the snow for about a month before Hopper found her, she hated the cold white stuff with a passion. Mike slightly smiled, wishing he'd gone outside looking for her when she was missing.

Holly must have opened her cute curtains and looked outside her own window when produced a high pitched shriek of joy.

Mike sat up in his bed, looking at El's scared face. "We can get some breakfast, and then we could go outside with Holly?" Mike offered, he knew El would do anything on this planet for his little sister, even if it means going outside and facing her worst nightmare.

The snow.

Either way, once she shakily nodded, accepting that it would be something she had to do for Holly. Mike reached over and pulled her into his arms. "Morning," he whispered, pecking her cheek.

El sighed, happy to be with Mike and have woken up next to him for the first time. "Morning," she replied, as she started to lean in and kiss him.

But were interrupted by Holly.

Before she had gotten stuck in the snow, and having been rescued by Hopper - Mike explained what snow was. Crystallised water that fell in white flakes. But she hated the cold, as it reminded her of the horrible time she had been separated from him.

"El, come here," Mike said, holding out his hand for his girl. She toddled to his side, her smile brightening with every step she took towards him.

He noticed that she was missing a pair of gloves, the ones she was going to borrow off Nancy had been put in storage for so long, they ended up almost fallen apart in her hands from moth holes...

"Take mine," he said, putting a pair of his old gloves from a couple of years ago, a little while before he met the girl standing before him.

El smiled at him, and wiggled her fingers in the gloves. "Thank you, Mike," she kissed Mike's cheek before she was dragged out into the snow by Holly Wheeler.
