Forwards sequel

Float

Mike POV

I sat at my table with Eddie and Will. They were both talking about germs or whatever, Mike then sat next to me and asked if I was okay. I replied with a yes and lied, Mike then started going around and asking girls if they wanted to dance, and boy did he have game. All of the girls agreed.

I exhaled and looked around the school gym. Last time we had a formal it was the snow ball and that night changed everything... I looked down and wanted to go home and just sleep, the group and my parents forced me to attend this.

Dustin, along with Stan, Lucas and Max walked over and joined us. I raised my brows and glanced around the gym again, then I saw Bill escorting Eleven, Strange. I wasn't angry or jealous, just surprised.

And then 'she' walked in. I stood up slowly and examined as Y/N walked in gracefully, she had Richie by her side and it made me choke, my throat had closed up and I felt a wave of depression.
Y/N looked gorgeous as ever... Last time we danced it was in the Hawkins Lab recovery unit in her room, she was too weak to even hold herself up. I loved having her in my arms.

Y/N POV

'Time after Time' came on and I dragged Richie onto the dance floor, I felt as he wrapped his arms around my waist, my hands lightly resting around his neck. I could feel myself blush as we were close. I'm glad I wasn't feeling weak tonight.

"I can't get over the way you look tonight baby, you take my breath away." Richie whispered as he leaned his forehead onto mine, I giggled and tightened my grip onto him.

"You don't think I went over the top? Not to dressy?" I asked worried, I raised my brows and smiled as he nodded a no.

"No you don't. I promise." Richie whispered, I blinked and felt my heart beat faster as he whispered the words 'I promise'.

I licked my lips and then leaned my head into his chest as we swayed, I could hear his heart beat and enjoyed being in his arms.

"Tonight we're all heading to Bill's after the dance. We need to talk." Richie spoke, I lifted my head and agreed, okay good, this was a perfect time to tell them all about what my group has been through and about me and Elevens abilities.

I agreed to tonight and turned my head to see... Bill and Eleven? Wait what? I thought Mike was taking El?

Mike POV

Basically, I've been sitting on my Sorry sad ass for 2 hours. The music was good at least. I analysed as my two ex girlfriends were dancing with someone else. I wanted to go and ask a girl to dance with me but, I had no interest in anyone else. Plus, most girls here had a partner already.

I smiled to myself and watched as Eddie and Will danced together. I scanned around the room until I saw a hand reach for me, it was Y/N.

I nodded a no.

"It's okay, dance with me. Richie even Insisted that I dance with you." Y/N mumbled, I blinked and reached for her hand. She slowly brought me to the dance floor and I carefully placed my hand son her hips. I didn't want to make the wrong move.

"Just act normal. You don't have to be cautious about the way you hold me. We're just slow dancing" she mentioned, I chuckled and let loose.

Having her in my arms again felt great. We swayed to the music and I continued blushing.

Her head leaned into my chest and that felt like home to me. She then looked up at me.

"Tonight, after the formal we have to tell the group about the 'upside down' and the demogorgan. Because I heard that Cole kid is missing... I'm stressed about more portals being open from the upside down. What if the demo-shit head took another kid?" She explained, I agreed to the plan. We did need to discuss. But first, let me enjoy my moment with her in my arms.
