ever since i met you - lumax

the eyes.

Dustin POV.
Where's Lucas? I️ need to show him Will. I️ always remembered he liked walking the train tracks in the morning, I'll check there.

I eventually find him, he's with Max. He sooo likes her. I️ drag them along with me, and we run to Will's house.

"Will! Honey! Can you hear me?!" I️ hear Joyce, Will's mom shriek.

Mike, Lucas, Max, and I️ rush over to find Will with a blank expression on his face, just staring at the tall trees in his backyard.

Joyce shakes Will, while tears are streaming down her face. Joyce continues shaking Will for what seems like forever. Suddenly, Will stares at Joyce with a jolt.

His eyes, I️ can't describe them. They seem to pierce right through Joyce. Suddenly, Joyce collapses to the ground.

"His.. eyes.." she says breathlessly. "They.. made me.. fall.." Mike and I️ help her up. She's sweating.

Will stands there. aimlessly. He doesn't seem to know what happened.

"Mom?" he rushes over to Joyce. "What happened?" he questions.

"Your eyes sweetheart" Joyce gasps, and she pulls Will inside the house.

Lucas POV.

Oh god, Will's not feeling too well again. 

"What was that all about?" Max asks me as we walk toward the park. 

"It's kind of a long story." I respond with. "You got time?" I ask.

"Yeah.." her voice trails off. We sit on the bench, and I tell her everything that's happened the past year, Will going "missing", Eleven, the lab.. everything. 

"I'm supposed to believe that?" She laughs. 

"Yes! You have to.. I know you don't know me very well.. but if you ask anyone else in school about Will, they'll say that he went missing for a week. But Max.." I decide to hold her hands to prove my point, "You have to. Please." Max stares at my hands, looks up at me with her eyes watering, and pulls away. 

"I.. I believe you." she answers. She wipes her watery eyes. 

"Max.. are you okay?" Was it too soon to hold her hands?! Crap. 

"Yeah, you just kinda took me by surprise there." She laughs uncomfortably. She walks toward her bike, but I'm not done yet. I grab her hand and pull her toward me. We're inches away from each other. I hug her tightly, yep.  Hug her. Yeah it's nice, this hug, but I could've kissed her just then. But we're just friends, I remind myself. We pull away, and she gets on her bike. She stops before getting on, looks back at me with a little smile, and pedals away, her red hair flowing in the wind. God. She's so perfect..

is the eye power thing stupid? idk, just kind of thought of it on the spot :p kind of a weird chapter sorry guys, not my best. feel free to comment, any feedback is appreciated. 

i am going to continue to add songs i believe relate to the mood of the chapter, so that if anyone who is a music junkie (like me) wants to listen to music while reading. & if you actually do listen to the song i provide, please comment! i would love to hear your thoughts about the song choice for the chapter.
