Mikes POV
El ran into the arms of a tall dark haired boy who picked her up and whirled her around and around whilst in a deep embrace. Ok, WHAT THE FUCK??? Who was this dude? I can't even see his face which is now buried in Els shoulder. After about two minutes they finally pulled away, The Dude had tears in his eyes and el was just openly crying. They looked at each other and pulled each other back into a hug. I shoved my clenched fists into my pockets and bit my tongue, because if I didn't I'd be spouting death threats by now and most likely carrying them out. 
"I missed you so much muffin!" He whispered in delight. Muffin? What the fuck was muffin?!
"I missed you too JJ," she said. El must have seen me because we locked eyes for a moment and she moved away from The Dude awkwardly.
"Um hey J, this is Mike, mike this is J..." she said, as if scared of my reaction. She definitely should've been.
"Hey mike, I'm Jack. Jack Taylor. To muffin, I'm just JJ," He said with a mischievous grin, holding his hand out to me. I shook it quickly and with one look at her, el was by my side. Jack was a bit taller than me and had lightish brown hair that was kinda floppy but it didn't look dorky. He had a few freckles littered on his cheeks and nose and had bright green eyes, a chiselled jawline, dimples and broad shoulders.
"So how do you two know each other?" I asked, slipping my arm around Els waist to show she was mine. I knew jack noticed but pretended he didn't.
"We were best friends forever but we haven't seen each other since I met you," she told me. I wanted to push further but decided against it.
"So," He said nodding at the clothes littered on the floor. "What went off HERE last night?" He said with a forced grin. I hated him already.
"Oh no, nothing..." el started, shooting a glance at me. "Nothing happened." She said a little TOO quickly with a smile at jack. He smiled back. I hated how hot he was. And I hated how differently el acted around him. Just generally hated everything about him. He took a moment to look around him and his eyes widened as he looked at at.
"Please tell me that he's the hospital patient, not you," he said with a clear jab at me. dickhead. El looked down.
"No, no, uh, that's me..." she mumbled. He moved closer and whisked her out of my arms and into his. That fucking prick I'm actually going to rip his throat out. She nuzzled into his shoulder and after a while he pulled away and lifted her chin. I 100% thought he was gonna kiss her and was completely ready to murder him but he didn't.
"Jane, baby, what happened? Are you ok are you hurt?" He asked. Jane? What? I glared at them, obviously angry by this point.
"Wait, Jane did he do this to you?!" He said glaring at me. My mouth dropped open. The AUDACITY!
"No he~" el began.
"If you've fucking hurt a single hair on her head I swear to fuck!" He snarled.
"Are you fucking dumb you delusional prick?! As if I'd ever do anything other than protect her from anything ever, you arrogant little shit! You walk in here like you're the fucking Queen of Sheba and take her away from me, then accuse me of shit without even knowing a single thing about who i am apart from my name, so maybe you should fucking learn the facts dipshit!" I yelled.
"Mike!" El shouted.
"Eleven, you cant seriously be on his side here! I'm your boyfriend for gods sake, you haven't even mentioned his name in 5 years, 5 YEARS Eleven and now he shows up and everything goes to shit? Is that how this is gonna work?" I asked angrily, tears prickling my eyes. There was a heavy silence and deathly tension for what seemed like an eternity as I stared into the eyes I love, and for once I... well I just couldn't see el in them. It was like she was a different person. And it hurt so much I had to look away in fear of actually breaking my heart.
"He's your boyfriend? And why is he calling you Eleven? You didn't even tell him about me?" Jack said with an empty look in his glassy eyes.
"I... Yes. Yes jack mike is my boyfriend." I felt her stare on me, even with my head bowed. "He's calling me Eleven because that's my name and I didn't talk about you because I knew it would hurt too much." El said.
'Mike please... please don't... I love you, don't do this please... please...' she said in her head. I built a mental wall and blocked her out.
"Wha...? You're name is jane, not eleven what are you talking about?" I raised my head slightly and dragged my gaze towards them. El was looking at jack as she spoke, her hands twisting around each other nervously behind her back.
"Look JJ, I'm not going to explain the full story." She said. She brought her right arm forward and revealed the tattoo.
"Eleven. El for short." She said and turned to look at me again, reminding me of the time I assigned her that nickname. She turned to jack and with a nod, he left.
"Just give us a shout if you need me muffin," He said quietly, then slipped through the door. I could still feel Els eyes on me as I looked at the floor.
"Mike I~" she said reaching out and touching my shoulder. I snarled at her touch and clenched my fists. She looked shocked but didn't remove her hand from my shoulder.
"Mike I'm not afraid of you." She said, sounding completely unconvincing.
"Yeah, well maybe you should be." I growled.
"Mike... I know you're mad. I get it that you're angry, I really do, but I just... I don't see the need for you to be jealous of EVERYONE for no reason!" She said.
"Really?! You REALLY wanna go down that road?! Eleven, you barely acknowledged my existence when he came in, it was all 'JJ' this and fucking 'muffin' that! Give me a fucking break! You didn't even tell him that I was your boyfriend!" I shouted.
"So is that it then, can I not have any guy friends or else the big bad wolf will come and fucking murder them out of needless jealousy?! Mike this is fucking ridiculous! You were even like this with Will! Your best friend! You're just so POSSESSIVE!" She yelled.
"Yeah, I am possessive. I'm possessive, over protective and territorial, because you know what Eleven?" I said. "You're mine. I cant stand anyone else touching you, I hate you out of sight, out of arms reach, hell, I even hate other guys talking to you that isn't one of our friends! It took all of my will power to not fucking kill stupid 'JJ' just then!" I thundered.
"So what, so you don't trust me? Is that it?" She said, tears in her eyes.
"It's not that I don't trust you Eleven, it's that I don't trust myself not to go absolutely mad on anyone who touches you. To me, everyone is a threat, and I can't bear the thought of losing you because it would literally tear me apart." I said. I was only half shouting now, and sad, angry tears had spilled down my cheeks. "When the demogorgon took you the first time my heart broke into tiny pieces. When you came back, you fixed it but the pain is still there el, and it just can't take another break. And it will shatter into unfixable shards if I loose you again. So I can't loose you again. I hate it when you leave mine to go home, or I have to leave yours, I hate it when we have different classes because being apart from you... it... it's like~"
"It's like life isn't even worth living until I'm back in your arms." She said finishing my sentence. I looked at her dead in the eyes, and through the tears and sadness, there was a twinkle. A twinkle that I treasured more than every star in the sky because it meant that she was there. El was herself and she was mine. More tears spilt down our cheeks. I looked at her a second longer and pulled her close. She nestled into the crook of my neck, her hands gripping my shirt.
"How did you..?" I asked.
"Because I feel the same." She said. And that was all I needed. I kissed her head and slid down to the floor, unable to keep us up, and el nestled in my lap. She fell asleep as I was playing with her hair and my eyes grew heavy as I dropped off with a small smile. I was well aware that our lovely friend 'JJ' was still outside but I didn't care. He could stay there, then maybe he'd go home. And with that I looked at the stars and moon and joined el in slumber.
