Mike p.o.v
Bella is really pretty and she is so nice. We started talking in class and she is so kind. I helped her get her lunch and I just know that everybody will love her. She is kinda shy, just like El but I think we will manage. She just needs to warm up to the guys.
The bell ring meaning the lunch was over.
"Wait guys where is El?" I asked.
"She left with Max" Will said.
"But she gave me her food" Dustin said happily.
"She didn't eat?" I asked shocked.
"Yeah it was weird for me too, but maybe it's girl stuff" Lucas added.
"Yeah I'm sure it is" Bella said.
"Well lets go" I said as we walked into the classroom. I saw El sitting in her seat playing with her hair. She looks so pretty.
"Hey El, you okay? Dustin told me you didn't eat your food" I said walking her way.
"I'm fine" is all she said.
"Okay good" I said smiling and going back to my seat.
"Is she okay?" Bella asked.
"Yeah she is fine" I said.
"Well that's good" she said
"Bella there is a science fair tomorrow wanna come?" I asked.
"Yeah sure. Where?" She asked.
"Here at school" I said.
"I'll be here" she said smiling and I couldn't help but smile back.
Eleven p.o.v
I feel like throwing up, I don't feel good. Maybe it's because Mike asked Isabella to come to the science fair and he hasn't even asked me.
I'm not sad anymore, I am just mad. Maybe it's just because of me. I mean who would want to be with the 'freak'. she is just so pretty, and I'm just... not! I can't be mad at Mike it's not his fault, maybe it's mine. But I can't make myself pretty if I'm not.
"Jane!" Mr. Clarke said harshly.
"Yes?" I said snapping out of my thought.
"Would you mind answering my question?" He said.
"I don't feel too good, may I go to the nurse?" I said.
"Yes of course. Do you need someone to help you?" He asked.
"No no I'm fine" I said getting up along with my bag. Mike looked at me concerned but I quickly looked away. Maybe I'm too weird for him and he doesn't want me going to his science fair.
I walked to the nurse office and told them that I threw up and that I did not feel good even though I didn't.
"Oh sweetie, you need me to call mom?" She asked.
"No, I need to call my dad" I said.
"Yes of course I'm sorry" she said.
I walked to the phone and dialed Hoppers number
"Hello?" He asked.
"Ummm I need you to pick me from school. I don't feel too good" I said slowly.
"Oh kiddo, are you okay? Did you eat?" He asked.
"I just need to go home please" I said my voice cracking.
"I'm on my way, just hold on for me" he said.
"Thank you" I said.
"Always" He said.
It's wasn't more then 6 minutes before Hopper came to pick me up.
"What's wrong?" He asked once we were inside the car.
"I don't feel good" I said quietly.
"I know you don't, why?" He asked.
"I don't know" I said.
"Mike?" He asked.
"No" I said quickly.
"So what did he do?" He asked.
"He didn't do anything, I just don't like change" I said.
"What kind of change?" He asked.
"I'm tired" I said looking out the window.
"Okay I won't push it, but whatever it is, I'm here" he said.
"I know" I whisper.
////////////////////////
I was watching tv when someone knock on the door. I already know who it is. I mean I hope it is who I think it is.
Mike?? Please please please.
"Hey El" Max said bringing brownies in a box.
"Max, hey, thank you!" I said.
"Yeah well we are gonna share those so don't get too excited" she said laughing.
"Okay Max I need to get it off. I need to tell someone" I said sitting down.
"Hit me" She said and I did.
"Owwww why did you hit me?" She asked
"You said 'hit me'" I said.
"Not literally! it's just means to say what you wanted to say" she said.
"Oh sorry, I'm still working on that" I said embarrassed.
"Okay go" She said.
"Mike" I sighted.
"I wasn't gonna say anything but since you brought it up. Yeah I noticed it too. Isabella is just.... I would keep an eye out for her if I were you. She is so open with him and not in a good way. I was looking at them and she.. her body language. She was all touchy touchy with him and she acts so fragile like she is a baby that needs protection. And she is—" she said
"Okay okay I get it. She likes him. I'm just not sure whether Mike likes her." I said sadly.
"I don't think he likes her, he is just being nice" she said.
"And that's why he forgets about me?" I asked slightly harsh.
"El he loves you, and Isabella is not gonna change that" Max said.
"Yeah well things are already changing and it's only been one day. Max he didn't ask me to go to the science fair with him, but he asked her" I said looking down at my lap.
"Well ummm maybe he just expects you to be there for him" Max tries to reason.
"Or maybe he doesn't want me there. I am the 'freak' of the school. Not even I would invite someone like me" I said looking at the tv blankly.
"El you are not a freak and I'm sure Mike is gonna ask, maybe after school he was but you left early" Max said.
"Well he sure didn't forget to ask Isabella" I said bitterly.
"El maybe—" she began but I cut her mid sentence.
"Let's eat the brownies, I'm hungry" I said.
"Don't worry, Mike is Mike he won't change for the world" she said.
"Promise?" I said.
"I promise" she said.
Hope you like the chapter!
