"Annnnndddd... it's done!"
The barber turned the chair around to reveal Will's new haircut to Will.
"It's cool." Will said. He didn't really think much of it, he was just happy he didn't have a bowl cut anymore. He has had it for a very long time, and was beginning to get sick of it, but couldn't find anything else he thought would look good on him, until recently.
After they paid the barber, Joyce began to drive Will to the arcade, the party was meeting up there today and Will wanted to reveal his new haircut. He had a small feeling Dustin was gonna go crazy and start making fun of his old haircut.
They soon arrived at the arcade, the others were already outside waiting for Will.
"Will?" Joyce said "We're here, have a great time, and remember if anything happens, I mean ANYTHING, ask them to use their phone and call m-"
"Yeah yeah, I know mom." Will said "Love you."
Will went outside of the car, and went up to the rest of everyone who was waiting for him. He could already hear Dustin screaming, Will just kept his head down and tried not to laugh.
"HOLY SHIT WILL!" Dustin screamed so loud a few people turned their attention to them.
"WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU MAN?!" Dustin said "WHAT HAPPENED TO THE SPAGHETTI BOWL?!"
Will just stood there, laughing really hard.
"Uhh..." Will started laughing, "The mind flayer possessed me again, but this time it forced me to get a better haircut."
Everyone laughed at that as they went over to see Will's new haircut. They all seemed to like it as well.
"I'm telling you man, all the girls are gonna be lining up to see you now." Dustin then winked an "i know your secret and im not gonna spill it" wink
"It looks good will." Max said
"Thanks max." Will replied
Will went up to Mike and asked him what he thought of it, but Mike was acting strange, it looked like he was staring at something.
"Mike?" Will asked, no response.
"Mike?!" He asked louder
Mike seemed to snap out of whatever he was in.
"Oh uh," Mike said suddenly "W-what did you say Will?"
"Just asking if you like my new haircut." Will said
"It looks amazing Will!" Mike said as he was giving a high-five to Will. The smaller boy smiled and they all went in to the arcade.

"Wow..." Mike thought to himself "Will looks... gorgeous, that new haircut of his makes him look stunning. I mean, he was gorgeous before, but now he's like-" He paused for a second, as he realized something. "Wait a minute, did I just call Will 'gorgeous?"
He stood there in silence for a bit while he gathered his thoughts.
"yeah, yeah... Will is gorgeous. Of course he is. But not like- that, that's just weird. But wait, this still sounds weir-"
"Mike?" He heard suddenly. Mike snapped out of his train of thoughts and focused his attention on Will.
"Oh uh, w-what did you say Will?" Mike was so lost in his thoughts he didn't hear what Will said.
