( TONGUE TIED ! ) fw imagines

saviour (2/2)

part two!

just as expected, as soon as mike walks into the depressing halls of hawkin's high, troy corners him.

the nice aura he held yesterday has disappeared completely.

"you got my homework done, nerd?"

despite being taller than the bully, he cowers back.

"n-no, but i can finish it by lunch if you'd let me-"

troy chuckles at that, his once light brown eyes turning nearly black.

"you already know what happens when you don't do my work on time."

mike nods shamefully, not daring to make eye contact. he watches as the boy's fists lifts and makes its way to his face.

with his eyes clenched shut, the dark haired boy awaits the impact of the punch.

but it never comes.

slowly and shyly, he opens his eyes to see none other than y/n holding troy's arm with a tight grip.

"what the fuck? let me go!" the teenage male tries to pry the y/h/c haired girls hands off of him, but fails.

"don't bother him anymore, troy." y/n huffs, eyes narrowed, "or i'll tell mom about that class you're failing.

"okay! damn, always gotta ruin my fun." the brown haired boy groans, finally pulling out of her grip.

with one last glare in mike's direction, he walks away.

mike's eyes lock with y/n's y/e/c ones, but he says nothing.

"you okay?"

"i didn't know you and troy were siblings." he replies, dodging her question completely.

if he had known the answer, he would've answered.

"we've got different mom's but yeah, we're related. my mom married his dad and then they divorced when i was ten and suddenly they're back together." she chuckles, as if to lighten up the mood.

mike nods.

"well, thanks. i'd better get to class."

before he can walk away, y/n grabs his hand.

"hey, wait. do you maybe wanna ditch?"

after glancing at their intertwined fingers, he stares back at her.

"ditch?" his mouth goes dry at the thought of skipping school. he'd never done it before.

the y/s/c skinned female nods with a smile on her face.

"what? are you afraid?" she giggles when he nods, "don't tell me you've never ditched before."

"i haven't." the tall boy deadpans.

"look, i won't force ya, but i think you'll have a totally tubular time if you join me."
