SAFE // Mileven (ON HOLD)

002

Wills POV

I arrive at school and put my bike on the rack. I walk through the parking lot and see Lucas motioning me over. I turn my head and try to avoid him. Why would Lucas want to talk to me its been 6 years. I continue walking until Lucas puts his hand on my shoulder and turns me around. "Hi" I say faking a smile and turning back around to find Eleven. I walk into the school towards my locker to get my things. "Hey nerd" Someone says behind me. Someone I knew too well. Troy. I mumble shit before closing my locker and turning towards him. "What do you want" I ask crossing my arms over my chest. Troy pushes me against the lockers and holds me up with one hand. "I want your homework" He says in a deep voice. I kick his leg, making him let go of me and open my locker. "Here, but were seniors and you have to learn something" I say grabbing my homework and tossing it to him.

Troy grunts and walks off with my homework as I walk the other way. "You give up so easily" Lucas says, appearing in front of me with Max. "Relax, it was a copy and it was full of wrong answers" I say annoyed "And what do you want I'm looking for someone". "Who are you looking for?" Max says pointing her finger at my face. "If you must know Ms. Noseypants, I'm looking for Eleanor" I say pushing her hand out of my face. I walk down the hall and realize Lucas and Max are following me. Great. I hear faint sobs coming from the end of the hall in the art room. I quicken my pace until we get to the art room. My eyes go wide when I see Dustin holding Eleven hands through the door window. "Is he making a move on Eleanor" I say looking at Lucas and Max in shock.

Dustins POV

"I'm sorry that Troy's a bitch, but you have to get over it sometime" I say mumbling the last part since it, or Mike, was El had stopped crying, but she was still sad. "You don't u-understand Dustin, Mike was the only-y person who re-really loved me" She said stuttering through out the sentence. "That's not true El Lucas, Will, and I love you" I say pulling her into a hug. "Ah-ha" I hear as I quickly pull away from El. "So you love El, how could you do this?" Lucas says shaking his head in disappointment. "Your crazy dude, betraying him, that's fucked" Will says pushing me. I grab both of their collars and drag them outside.

"The hell were you doing with El" Lucas says staring into my eyes. "Comforting her because I ran into her crying, not whatever sick shit you two were thinking of" I say crossing my arms over my chest. "Then why did you say you loved her?" Will said with a smirk. "Because I do, as a friend" I say staring at the two. "Guys, there's a problem" Max says poking her head out of the room holding El's wrist. El's exposed wrist reveals her 011 tattoo and a lot of cuts. "Holy shit" I mumble as Eleven pulls her wrist away from Max, pushes her back, and slams the door.

"Is she crazy or something?" Max asks still on the floor "And does she have a cat?". "Did you tell her" I say looking at Lucas. "No, why would I tell her something like that" Lucas says helping Max off the floor. "She's depressed" Will said calmly. "What" I say turning to look at him "How do you know". "Because depressed people cut, and she lost Mike" He says. "Who's Mike" Max says leaning on Lucas. Great now we have to explain everything.
