el helps mike study for his anat/phys test.

this is pretty spicy. let me know if it's too spicy.

"what was your test on again? human anatomy?"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"ok, next time you get a house, make sure you get a bedroom on the first floor. that roof was not easy to climb," said el through the open window, trying to get her leg through.

"what are you doing here?" mike whispered nervously.

"i'm here to help you study," she said, tripping into the room. she turned around and closed the window. then she turned around the face mike.mike glanced around his room, making sure that it was neat. it was, except for the unmade bed.

"so....uh. hi," mike said, scratching the back of his neck.

el smiled and sat on the edge of his unmade bed and crossed her legs, and placed her hands on the bed to support her body, "hey,"

mike couldn't help but blush and smile.

el had met mike about a week ago on their english class, started talking about the latest duran duran album, then- boom- they're kissing underneath the bleachers at the football game at the end of the week.

"so. what's your test on?" el asked.

"uh.....human anatomy," mike said, holding up his flash cards.

"perfect," el said, then patted the space next to her on the bed. mike neared her and she sat cross-legged on his unruly bedsheets.

mike sat across from her.

el held out her hand for the flash cards and mike placed the large stack in her hands.

el raised her eyebrows as she looked at the first card.

"where is the patella?" el asked, her eyes flicking up towards his.

"the leg,"

"wow. i'm enlightened. your answer was so thorough that i no longer need to continue high school and can make a living on my own with all the knowledge you just presented me," el said, her voice dripping with sarcasm.

"well, i can't exactly, tell you where it is-"

"then show me," el said, raising her eyebrows.

mike reciprocated the action, "wha- like on me? or-"

el's eyes returned to the flashcards, as she flipped through them, saying, "on me. we can make it a game,"

"a-a game?"

suddenly el bit her lip, looking concerned and a little embarrassed, then placed her hand on top of his, "is this like, wierd for you? i'm really sorry if i overstepped- "

mike raised his eyebrows, "what? no. it's just that i.... i've never really had a girlfriend before. i mean- not that you're my girlfriend-"

el rolled her eyes, giving him a reassuring smile, letting their fingers intertwine, "mike, i can be your girlfriend. i really like you,"

mike felt his chest rise, then he smiled, "uh....well then.....before you....i never really kissed anyone before. and....i don't want to stop being with you because i look dumb not knowing what i'm doing....does that make sense?"

el bit her lip, smiling, then squeezed his a hand, her eyes trained on their clasped hands, "mike. you don't have to live up to any expectation. just....do what feels natural. be yourself,"
