TROUBLE • WHEELER [✔︎]

[Chapter Three]

Holly, Jolly

November 7th 1983

"mike and y/n i'm going to the byers house do you kids want to go?" mike's mom asked as the two from downstairs. y/n woke up and looked around, she yawned and looked to see her hand locked with mike's. she shook mike a little and he woke up.

"wanna go to will's?" she asked. mike stretched and shook his head no. y/n walked to the door and opened it slowly.

"no thank you mrs. wheeler we're alright." she smiled and karen nodded as she carried holly to the car. she walked to the basement just to find el playing with mike's walkman. the next to come downstairs was a sleepy mike who was still yawning and scratching his eyes.

"are we going searching tonight?" y/n asks. mike shrugs and grabs his walkman from el.

"guys are we going searching tonight?" he says into the walkman. lucas and dustin said yes so that meant i should get home. y/n gathered her stuff and walked to her bike.

"mike please be careful with el, if anything happens please talk to me." she said. mike nodded and she kissed his cheek once again. as she started to bike away mike felt a hand on his shoulder.

"who's that?" el asked.

"my best friend y/n." he smiled softly as she was slowly disappearing.

LATER THAT DAY

y/n chose her clothes (i'm going to add a picture since i really don't know how to describe it..) and packed her stuff up.

she grabbed nancy's clothes, her raincoat and a pack of gum. she chewed some on the way to mike's. she dropped her bike and knocked on the door three times.

"hello mike!" she greeted.

"hey y/n come on in." he led her to the basement. there stood dustin, lucas, and el.

"um here are nancy's clothes." mike took them and put them away. he turned to look at the boys and the two girls who were ready to hear him out.

"we're going to look for will once again. we're going to sneak el out of course. y/n and dustin will distract my mom and lucas and i will get her out." y/n and dustin ran upstairs and started to talk to karen.

"i mean your hair is beautiful mrs. wheeler i wish mine was like that." y/n complimented.

"let's go guys!" mike yelled. the two ran out of the house and got on their bikes. they bikes around the streets and yelled will's name over and over again. they stopped when they saw police officers and ambulances on the quarry. they hurried to where they were and y/n gasped. will's body was being pulled out of the body.

"no No NO! THATS NOT HIM THATS NOT WILL NO NO!" she sobbed and screamed. mike pulled her into his arms and cooed at her. y/n's loud sobs attracted hopper and walked to the kids. lucas and dustin were in shock. mike had let a few tears escape his eyes.

"that's not him mike that not him!" she kept repeating.

"it's no him y/n it isn't he's alright okay he's alright." he repeated after her. mike was heart broken, not only because will's body was just pulled out of a quarry but because y/n was crying. that tore him apart. he hugged her even more tightly and turned her around so she couldn't see what was happening. he kissed the top of her head and rubbed her back lightly as her crying just got worse and worse.

"i'm here you're okay. that's not will y/n..that's not will."
