What Could've Been

Four's POV

I woke up, and got ready for school. The past few months I've been living with Hopper and Jane.

Max and I grew closer together, we became partners in crime. She always taught me how to skate, we were yelled at by adults together for being loud and out too late.

After what happened a while ago, things have really been looking up. Me and Mike's relationship was getting serious.

at school today all I could think about is hanging out with Max, sometimes she would let me call her Maxine, I never do though.

once school was over she skated towards me "You ready?" she asked. I nodded, then she pushed forward "Slow down!" I yelled laughing.

I could've sworn I heard someone call my name. I turned around and Mike came wrapping his arms around my waist.

"Hey..." I said shyly. "Hi beautiful." he replied back. "Oh, smooth." I rolled my eyes as a light blush came on to my cheeks.

"Where ya heading off to?" he asked me. "Just around town with Max." I answered. "Okay, well be back by 7. For our date tonight." He smiled and kissed me.

"Alright Michael." I smirked and ran off. Max rode her skateboard while I was fast-walking. "Slow the hell down Madmax." I laughed.

Once we arrived to our designated spot in the woods we sat on the cold damp dirt. "So, um...Max, anything new at home? Has Billy finally got the courage to be a good brother?" I asked.

She laid her head down on my lap. "Still the same old asshole." she scoffed. "What do you think is his weakness?" I said whilst playing with her hair.

"I don't know, maybe his dad. He seems really tensed up whenever he's with him. It's hysterical, you really should see it one time." She smirked.

"I'd love to." I smiled. There she was cloud gazing and I was playing with her hair.

After our friend-date finished, she walked me back home and we hugged goodbye. I got inside and said hi to Hopper and Jane.

I got ready for my date then I walked to Mike's house. I knocked and Nancy answered. "He's waiting for you downstairs Y/n." she said.

I walked down the stairs of the basement. "Wow." I heard him breathe out. "I did my best." I smiled shyly.

"Well then it's too good y/n." he had his eyes wide open.

We went out to the movies. Watched a really boring movie, then he took me home.

Once Mike walked me to the street that led to my cabin he pulled out a ring. Not the first time I was shocked.

He knelt down on his knee. Oh my fuck. What the fuck. What the fuck. "Y/n Wilson, will you do me the honor of letting me propose a promise to you?" he asked nervous.

"y-yeah..." I answered nervously. "I promise to always be there for you, love you, and be your friend even if we're at the darkest times with each other. I promise to come back for you if I ever leave, I promise to adore you for you." He huffed out.

"Oh my god...Michael, thats so sweet, I-" "You don't have to say anything." he cut me off then planted a gentle kiss on my lips.

I pulled away. "Is something wrong babe?" he asked. "Um....I- um..." I stuttered. Shit, how the hell am I gonna tell him that I think we're moving too fast.

"I FEEL LIKE WE'RE MOVING A BIT TOO FAST." I blurted out. "It just feels weird, and way too fast and I can't keep up, and I know you're mad and I'm really sorry."

"I'm not mad." he said non-chalantly. "What..?" I asked dumbfounded. "You said it was just us moving too fast, right?" he reassured.

"Yeah..." I said. "Then I believe you, I believe that you feel like we're moving too fast, and besides it's not like we're breaking up or anything." He calmly admitted.

"You know I love you right?" I asked. He nodded. "Bye Mike." I waved. "See you tomorrow." he said.

I walked back home and got ready for bed, I couldn't sleep because all I could think about was that damn confession.
