➵CHAPTER SEVEN.
'this is a... special occasion'
-mike slowly opened their front door. luckily their parents and holly weren't home tonight.
eleven was holding onto dustin. lucas, max and will had already went home, promising they would come and visit el next day.
mike's first view as he entered the house was nancy sitting on the couch with crossed arms.
"nance"
nancy snapped her head to him.
"michael wheeler" she stood up, walking to him.
"you dare to leave until 6am without telling me where you're going once again, and i'll kick you out of the house, get it?" she shouted.
"shhh. nancy, please-"
"no, michael. you need to understand how worried i was! in- in your emotional state you could've-"
"mike" a little voice behind them interrupted.
mike instantly looked back at el, who had her arm out for him to grab. nancy took a step to the side, trying to see who was it.
mike took her hand and slowly pulled her with him.
nancy's eyes widened and she brought her hand to her mouth.
mike placed his arm around her waist taking ahold of her.
"el" nancy said
eleven smiled.
"wh-" she stopped herself, looking back at mike. by now both brother and sister had their eyes filled with tears.
-
nancy held el as they walked into the bathroom. she helped el to sit down on the toilet.
"the water is ready. use this to clean up your body and that for your hair. here are some clean clothes. if you need anything, just call me, okay?" she gave her a warm smile.
"okay" el smiled back.
nancy nodded and exited the bathroom, closing the door not completely but the slightest bit. she walked out of her room and closed the door, finding mike leaning against the wall, biting his nails. he quickly stood up when he saw her.
"i- um-"
"she should sleep with you, tonight" she said.
mike chuckled, running his fingers through his hair.
"you know, as a big sister, that's not really appropriate to say"
nancy rolled her eyes.
"this is a... special occasion. plus i know you would never take advantage of her like that"
"you got a point"
-
el nocked on mike's door, softly.
"can i come in?"
mike walked to the door and opened it for her.
"yeah, yeah come in" he almost whispered.
they walked into the room.
"tonight, you can sleep with me if you want. i mean, i can sleep on the floor if-"
"mike"
"y-yeah?" he looked down at her.
"it's fine- together"
mike gulped and nodded.
el looked around the room, spotting a mirror. she slowly walked to it, mike curiously looking at her. el looked at herself at the mirror, frowning as she saw her short hair. she ran her finger through it, sighing. suddenly mike appeared in the reflection, behind her.
"hey" he said, bringing her hands away from her hair.
"you look pretty. really really pretty" he blurted out.
it was true. for mike, she looked prettier than ever.
el felt her cheeks warming up. she turned around, looking up at him and threw her arms around his neck, embracing him. mike hugged her back, wrapping his arms around her torso.
they pulled back, their faces just inches apart.
"d-do you want to go and sleep?" he stuttered.
el nodded.
"o-okay"
mike slipped into the bed, el following behind. he turned off the lights and made sure to leave her as much space as he could.
"night mike"
mike smiled.
"night el"
