SAFE // Mileven (ON HOLD)

Mikes POV

"Promise?"

"Promise"

I stare at my feet. I promised El that she wouldn't leave. And now she's destroying Hawkins Lab and killing Brenner. But she's also killing herself. Again. I look back at El and grab her hand. "Stop" she looks back at me, her nose and ears bleeding, but she still looked pretty. "Mike I can't" She says trembling, trying to hold back tears. But I guess it was to much for her. Using her powers to save all of us and holding in her tears. "Mike I won't be able to come back" she says as the tears fall down her face "When the Lab is destroyed, so is the portal back to Hawkins".

I couldn't live with myself if El left again. Forever. "Your not going back to the upside down El" I said pulling her in my arms and kissing her lips. She was surprised at first ,but then kissed back. We pulled away and I held her in my arms. "I'm sorry" I whispered in her ear before pushing her back towards Dustin, Lucas, and Will. I raised my hand at Brenner and held him against the lab. My nose was dripping blood and I could feel myself slowly fade away. Everything was silent until I looked back at El. From then all I could hear were her screams. Screaming at me to stop and let her do the rest, but I couldn't. She was weak, but she still tried breaking free of Dustin and Lucas' grasp.

Slowly, the screams stopped and the building was half demolished. I could feel the blood pouring out of my ears. I turned away from El, not being able to handle anymore of her sadness. This was it. The lab and Brenner are gone and Holly's back. I closed my eyes ready to except my fate. I could feel my heart rate getting slower and slower. Then I fell. No, more like "got jumped on". I couldn't see who it was, but I knew it was El. She must have broken free from Dustin and Lucas to stop me. But it was to late. All the feeling left my body and into the air. "Goodbye El".

Elevens POV

"Mike stop!!!" I screamed. "El stop this" Dustin said, still holding my arm. "Let her go" Lucas said letting go of my arm "Mike wouldn't want her to be held against her will." Dustin looked me in the eyes "Go get your man" he said tears falling down his face as he let go of my arm. I ran over to Mike and jumped. I jumped, hoping he would still be there to catch me. He wasn't. I was too late and he was gone. The wind blew against my shoulder length hair as I sat there. "Goodbye El". I sat there and cried because I heard his voice again. For the last time. I just sat there because there was nothing I could do. Nothing except cry.

Dustin was the first to hug me. Then Lucas and finally Will. Nancy and Jonathan hadn't woke up yet. But I didn't care. All I cared about was that Mike was gone. But we promised. And we broke that promise. And now there's a hole in my heart where Mike should be. This was the most pain I've ever felt and I can't stop it. I can only hurt it more to the point were I won't care. So now I'm sitting in the middle of Dustin, Lucas, and Will thinking of ways to drown out my pain.

So this is the end. For now. This book turned out way more sad than I planned. I'm going to start a new part in this book July 1st. So I can already have chapters prewritten for the second part. I'm sad this is over but I'm glad that I get to start new. The second part will have them all older  with new characters. Next Monday I will put up the summary of the chapters so you can get a better view point of it. Thank you for reading SAFE. Love you guys. Also happy summer break whenever  yours is.
