Moving In

Hey guys! My new story : 'Dreaming' will be coming out tomorrow! It's another Stranger things fan fiction, but it revolves around a girl named Skye who auditions for season three of the show. I hope you like it! Anyways, enjoy this chapter!

// Mike //

I was texting El while I drove to see her. I was helping her move some of her stuff over to Joyce's house. She had been super worried because Will didn't elaborate on some stupid thing. I guess she thought she would be living there permanently or something. But Hopper agreed to let me come help. She would be staying at her house on weekends and staying with Joyce on school nights.

MIKE: I'm on my way!
EL: yay! so ready to see you
MIKE: I miss you
EL: I miss you too so much

We hadn't seen each other in what seemed like years, but was only about a month. It was still a really long time. I jumped out of my car and ran to the front door. It flew open and El wrapped her arms around my neck and hugged me tightly. I closed my eyes, savoring her touch. I missed her more then you could ever imagine. She pulled back, looking into my eyes. "I missed you so much," she whispered.

I didn't respond, on the fact that Hopper pushed us apart, rolling his eyes. "What did we say about the boyfriend, El?" She blushed furiously, and I have to admit I looked away in embarrassment.

"Come on, we got work to do. I only agreed to let him come so he could help, remember?" We agreed silently, but El shot me an annoyed look as we trudged after him. He greeted my mother. They've met before, but they definitely aren't close. My mom called over to me. "Hey, Mike, I'm gonna go to the store, Ok? I'll pick you up in a few hours." Nodding, I gave her a quick hug and went back over to stand next to El, intwining my fingers with hers as my mother pulled away in her car.

Hopper instructed us to help carry certain things, and the whole time El and I- Well, we caught up. We talked about life. I told her about school and she told me about many things - I was surprised!

Then it was time for lunch. "Eggos?" El asked hopefully. Hopper sighed. "I'm sorry, Eleven, but I am sick of eggos. No." El sighed. "Fine.." she turned to me hopefully. "Mike? Eggos?" I cracked up with her.

It seemed like just minutes before we were done. I sat with El in her room and we talked. She stopped talking to smile at me. Then we just looked at each other. She bit her lip a little, and I leaned forward, softly pressing my lips against hers. She wrapped her arms around my neck as we kissed. It was the most magical thing I have ever felt.

Then, right on time, Will walked in. He shrieked loudly, and ran back out. Eleven was blushing again, but I was just laughing. Will stuck his head back in. "Is it safe?" I laughed, nodding my head. El scooted closer to me to make from for him on her other side, and he sat down. "So, what have you guys been up to? Other then... that." I laughed some more. El looked thoroughly embarrassed. "Just talking," she mumbled.

A few minutes later, Joyce entered with a sour expression on her face. "I've got some bad news guys. The weather is really bad, so Mike is gonna have to stay the night." El and I looked at each other, grinning. Hopper stuck his head in with a scowl. "Don't you get any ideas!"

El hugged him tightly. "Thank you, thank you thank you!" He sighed. "Thank Mother Nature, all right?" El nodded and jumped on my lap, grabbing me in another hug. Will made a barfing noise.

* I wanted to try another characters perspective, it'll be less of these ones, but yay!

I scooped up my laundry and dumped it in my bin. My mom was making me do chores although Eleven and Mike were here. "Just because your friends are here doesn't mean you can avoid cleaning your room," she had said. I pulled back my covers and pushed my shoes in my closet with a sigh.

I really was glad Eleven was going to get to stay with us, I was worried about school though. I'd already suffered enough weird looks last year, and being in the news didn't help that.

At least my friends would be with me.

I threw on my pajamas and walked out to the living room to watch a movie with my friends.

As expected, Eleven was curled up next to Mike, pressed up against him. Those two never took a break, did they?

I made my appearance as their lips were inches apart. "Hopper wouldn't like that." They jumped apart, Eleven blushing. Mike was smirking at her.

I thought it was hysterical that they had the same reaction every time. I mean, when would they get used to the fact that I would interrupt every single moment? Chuckling to myself, I jumped on a chair, picking up the remote. "What are we gonna watch?" I asked.

Mike pondered for a minute. "A comedy?" He suggested. We flicked through channels until we found something good, then watched and ate popcorn. We stayed up late laughing until my mom made us go to bed.

I enjoyed being around them, lovebirds or not.

*will will return! sorry his part was so short! let me know if you wanna see more of him.

                              // Eleven //

I stared at the ceiling. Hopper made Mike sleep on the couch, and even though it had only been an hour, I couldn't fall asleep without him.

He was my life.

How is it possible to miss someone when they are not even gone??

I slithered off my new bed and walked down the hallway quietly. Mike was asleep on the couch.

The couch was big, so I fit myself in beside him, pulling his blankets around me. I lay my head on his chest, listening to his heartbeat.

His warmth soothes me, and I fell asleep with him wrapped around me.

Again, sorry for  short chapter. Writing it seems longer then it actually is! Let me know if you liked the new Mileven scenes. I think I'm getting better. Stay tuned tomorrow for my new book! I'll definitely still be updating this one, too. Thanks for reading!!
