Steve swong the bat, just miss Billy's face because he leaned back "watch where you sw-" "GO" Steve yelled. Billy shook his head stepping closer to Steve "go, now, do you understand that" Steve said ready to swing his bat another time "I'm not g-" "I SAID do you understand!" Steve said raising his voice "n-" And with that said Billy was pushed back far, bumping into a tree by the Byers house. Steve, Nancy, Johnathan, Mike, Will, and Dustin was surprised, Mike Will and Dustin looked back knowing it was either one of the two. They looked at the girl who had been kicked out of the party of, the one whose helped them, then picked Troy over them, and now back to helping them "I was wrong" Eleven said "NO, DON'T" Mike yelled "You hurt me, you HURT WILL" Mike yelled again and Eleven just stared at him, then to Dustin, then to Will and eventually back to Mike "I just helped you, and you don't allow me back into the party" Eleven said "YOU, called me a fag, you called Will a fag, YOU WERE THE ON TO FUCKING LEAVE IN THE FIRST PLACE" Mike yelled stepping closer to El and pointing his index finger at her and tears start to stream down his face while everyone is watching, worried that Mike would get the crap beat out of him. "Mike! Stop, please" Nancy said "YOU trader YOU LEFT US, you left us" Mike cried falling to the ground, and of course Billy needed to come right there and then. Mike freezes when he here Steve yelled "STEP AWAY FROM HIM". Mike looked behind him boom everything went black and all he could hear, faintly "stop it stop" from everyone and he could see a blur of Steve trying to get something off of him. He heard the police and the ambulance, he soon got picked up a d that's all he remembered. The next time he blinked he was in hospital bed, surrounded with Max, Lucas, Ruby, Dustin, Will, Nancy, Johnathan, and Steve, not even he's mother. "Wh-what happened" Mike said looking around again "Billy he beat you up" Will said looking at him "I tried to help, but El didn't let me" Steve said "we all were trapped by El" Will said. "I- I'm sorry" Mike said looking at Nancy "I should've stopped like you said" "no Mike, this is not your fault, I think that was the plan the whole time, for Billy to bet you up" Nancy sighed "why me?" Mike whispered "because El wants You and Will go break up because she still loves you" Dustin frowned "I don't even like her as a friend, so I don't love her, I don't know why I even loved her" Mike said, and everyone just stared at him "She choose Troy over us, the ones who gave her a home, the one who cared for her" Mike said looking at Steve then to Will, then just to everyone eventually.  "I know Mike, I know it's hard to believe that she's different, but she has grown up, and so did you guys" Nancy said and Mike nodded his head and felt blood coming from his nose, wrist, arm and ears. Mike swiped the blood coming from his nose first "what exactly happened?" Mike said "why am o still bleeding?" He added "it was all Billy, the ambulance didn't come until twenty minutes but El, she ran out of energy so she passed out but Billy, he was still beating you up when I was punching him, when we were all trying to make him stop" Steve sighed "it's alright Steve, I'm....okay" Mike sighed as well "just because I'm with Will" Mike said quietly "just because he doesn't like gays" Mike said a little louder, tearing up "Mike it's fine" Max said "no, no it's not" Mike said while a tear slipped out of his eye "NOTHING about that is okay" "Mike!" Will said a little loud, Mike just looked at him tears streaming down his face "there's some people who won't appreciate you, or appreciate me, but you have you're friends who appreciate you" Will whispered but loud enough for him to hear"it's fine" he added. "Mike, we have another visiter" The nurse came in. They all looked back, shook by who actually came to see the boy. Billy.
