sleepover

Max and Lucas walked down the hall hand in hand down the hallways of Hawkins High, heading towards El's locker to meet their friends.
"Hey guys!" Max yelled cheerfully to the gang as they approached.
"Hey!" Everyone replied back.
"We should hang out tonight." Lucas said.
"Yeah! We should have a movie night!" Will said as he looked at Mike.
"Sure. That's fine with me. Maybe we could have a sleepover? You up for that El?" Mike turned to his girlfriend.
"Sounds fun! Can I just ride home with you and ask Hopper when I get over to your house?" El responded with a smile.
"Yeah. Thats perfect." Mike put one of his arms around his beautiful girlfriend and they walked towards the door.

El and Mike hop off of his bike and walk into the house.
"Hey mom! El's here and the rest of the party will be here later. Is it alright if they stay?" Karen walked into the living room, a glass of wine in her hand, and she smiled at her son and El.
"Sure. Hi El!" She said pulling El in for a hug.
"Cool, thanks. Could you let Hop know? We're going down to the basement." He yelled, grabbing his girlfriend's hand, pulling her to the basement.
Mike sits down and El sits by his side, so close she's basically on his lap, but he didn't mind. He grabs the remote and flips the tv on, knowing exactly what channel to turn to. He grabs her hand as she engages in the soaps on the tv.
A commercial comes on and she turns herself towards Mike, leaning into him. She starts to kiss him and he gently kisses her back.
"Told you they were sucking faces!" They quickly pull away and look to the stairs to see the whole party. Mike and El were as red as tomatoes now.
"Shut up Dustin!" Max said as she hit him, now making her way towards the couch. She sits down and gives El a hug. The two had been best friends, since she started school with them freshman year.
"Don't worry guys. I think it's sweet." Max chirped as she glared at Dustin.
"What movie should we watch first?" Lucas said as he walked over to the stack of VHS tapes in the corner.
"Back to the Future?" Everyone nodded and Mike got up, walking towards the stairs.
"Where are you going?" El looked at him with worry in her chocolate colored eyes.
"I'm going to pop some popcorn and grab drinks. Don't worry," he said kissing her forehead, "stay here and watch the movie." He walked upstairs and closed the door behind him.

"What's next?" El whispered to Mike, trying hard not to wake everyone up.
"El it's pretty late. Are you not tired?"
"No. Want to watch another one?"
"Sure." He said with a smile. A tape comes floating from the corner over to them. She take its out of its sleeve and walks over to the tv, taking the previous tape out and placing the new one inside, pressing play. Quietly, she makes her way back over towards the couch and lays her head against Mike's chest.
"Hey El do you wa-"
He stops as he notices El asleep on his chest.
"Not tired huh?" He chuckles and covers her with a blanket.
"Goodnight, El." He kisses the top of her head and slowly drifts off to sleep.

The next morning, Mike is awoken by shakes. He slowly lifts his head seeing everyone still asleep, except for El.
"Mike. Wake up!" She says whispering, still gently shaking him.
"Yeah El?" He sees the excitement on her face and it automatically makes his mood brighten.
"Your mom made Eggos!" Mike giggle and El dragged him up the stairs. They sat on the kitchen bar stools, eating their delicious waffles, holding each other's hands, and just all around enjoying each other's company.
"Best. Sleepover. Ever."
