Mike's POV

I opened my eyes slowly. A sigh escaped my lips as the light from my window shone into my eyes. That was a good dream. Actually, it wasn't really a dream. It was a memory.

"Okay!!!" I screamed at Dustin, "Are you feeling any better?" I turned to El.

She shrugged, "What's putting?"

I chuckled, "Pudding, it's...it's  this chocolate goo you eat with a spoon. Don't worry, when all this is over you won't have to keep eating junk food and leftovers like a dog anymore. My mom, she's a pretty awesome cook. She can make you whatever you like."

El's eyes lit up, "Eggos?"

"Well, yeah eggos, but real food to. See I was thinking, once all this is over and Will's back and you're not a secret anymore, my parents can get you an actual bed for the basement. Or you can take my room if you want, cause I'm down there all the time anyway. My point is, they'll take care of you. They'll be like your new parents and Nancy, she'll be like your new sister," I explained.

El looked confused, "Will you be like my brother?"

"What! No, no."

"Why no?"

"Because...cause it's different."

"Why?"

"I mean I don't know, I guess it's not...it's stupid."

"Mike?"

I looked up at her, "Yea?"

"Friends don't lie."

I sighed, "Well, I was thinking....I don't know....," I stuttered, "Maybe we could go to the snowball together."

"Snowball?"

"It's this cheesy school dance where you go in the gym and dance to music and stuff. I've never been but I know you're not supposed to go with your sister."

"No?"

"Well I mean you can, but it's be really weird. You go to school dances with someone you...like."

"A friend?"

"Not a friend...a...a...a...a...someone like a..."

And in that moment, my stomach felt warm and my palms got sweaty. I was gonna do it. I was gonna kiss her. I quickly leaned in and out lips met abruptly. I stayed there for about 2 seconds then I leaned back. Did she like it? Oh no! Did she hate me?

El looked shocked. Then her face slowly melted into a little grin. Oh I loved when she smiled.

And just like that, the morning light ripped me away from my subconscious mind. I wanted to go back. I sighed, smiling to myself just thinking about her. After the snowball, El went back to Hopper's cabin. It has been about 2 months since the snowball (I am just saying that the snowball was on December 7 because the whole show  happened in like a four day time frame, October 30-November 2. Then at the end it says "1 Month Later" And I found that December 7, 1984 is about a month and a week after the snowball and it is on a Friday which would be correct for the Snowball. Just me being extra 😂). Wow, I haven't seen El for 2 whole months. Well tomorrow is Valentine's day and I wanted it to be perfect. A sly smile appeared on my face. Perfect.
