Season Three Inspired Oneshots~

~18~

Based off the still we got of Mike, Lucas, and Will.

(this has been done already, but as of me writing this the still just came out)

We Built This City - Starship

Will huffed quietly, sitting backwards, humming along to The Clash. Mike was leant forward, his chin in his hands, trying to be patient but failing miserably. Lucas was sat back, acting like he was at home, trying to get comfortable, scouting out the area around them.

The boys were waiting for El and Max. Max had insisted that she take El shopping, and the boys decided to tag along.

But the second they showed up Max stopped them from going anywhere, saying they couldn't see because it was a surprise.

"Should I stay or should I go." Will bobbed his head along impatiently, mumbling the lyrics.

Lucas groaned loudly, and Mike sat bored out of his mind.

"Where the hell are they? It's been an hours." Lucas said.

"Lucas, it's been less than an hour. 45 minutes at most." Mike replied, sighing louder than he would've liked, because it showed off his annoyance.

"Ooooh, Mike is counting the minutes until he gets to see his girlfriend again!" Will cooed teasingly, laughing as Mike turned a light shade of red.

"Sh-shut up." he rolled his eyes.

"Sh-shut up!" Lucas mocked. Quickly losing focus on teasing Mike, seeing Max come waltzing out of the store.

"Thank god." he practically cheered, stretching out his legs.

"Nuh uh, I present to you three, the newly fashionable, no longer flannel wearing, El Hopper!" Max acted as if she was presenting a model on the runway, hyping up the brunette as much as possible.

She flailed her arms out comically, smiling widely. Shortly after her smile drooped, as she saw how nervous El looked, just barely hidden behind one of the decorative hedges.

Max knew immediately that it was because of Mike, who was sitting there waiting patiently.

Timidly, El took in a deep breath and stepped forward.

She was adorned in a black romper, filled with neon geometric shapes. She smiled shyly.

Everybody and everything around faded into the background, fuzzy in his peripheral as he sat in awe at El, trying not to let his jaw drop or anything embarrassing like that.

The boys all stood up, and El walked over to Mike slowly, looking down because of her nerves. All the nerves multiplying as she took the extra step of locking her hand with his.

When they got further from the stores and the group was ahead of them Mike gathered enough courage to speak again.

"El?"

"Yes?" she asked.

"Y-you look, beautiful." he smiled, making a big smile grow on her face.

After looking at their friends once more, she quickly pecked him on the cheek, her cheeks becoming rosy as he turned red as a tomato.

"C'mon, lovebirds! Steve will give us free shit if we hurry!" Max exclaimed, somehow making both of them blush deeper than before, as she began to speed up towards Scoops Ahoy.

"Aho- oh it's you shitheads. Great, forgot I have to give you guys free shit. What do you want?"

"Um, chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, mint chocolate, and peanut butter." she said, pointing around to everybody.

"Comin' right up." Steve said tiredly.

He dished out all five of their cones and sent them on their way. They laughed hearing him greet the next customer with an annoyed ahoy.
