"oh god" The Hazel eyed teenager sighed after a long day in his room missing his girlfriend.

"I just couldn't believe it. Who would do such a thing and just tell people to go away like that?" he thought.

"Mike? Are you there?" the voice of his friend, will Byers in his supercom beside him.

"hey will, where's el?" He quickly asked, worried if something might already happen to her.

"she's fine, she went to bed as soon as we got here" Mike giggled.

"hey, I'm going to unpack some stuff, talk to you later, over" Will turned off his supercom.

"Michael! Your friends are here!" His mom screamed from down stairs.

"coming mom" He ran down and saw his friends there, standing quietly.

"you feeling any better?" Lucas asked and Max quickly hits his shoulder.

"don't act like he's dying, he just misses his girlfriend who isn't even dead" He looked at her a bit furious.

"so you're saying you don't miss her, Max?" she rolled her eyes and Mike smirked. Max Mayfield, some people call them as frenemies, Mike just thought that was pretty stupid.

"yeah, I miss her too" Max looked down.

"WELL, does anyone want to go to starcourt? Heard it's been repaired" everyone looks at Dustin in an obvious look of "are you kidding me?".

"yeah, let's go to the place we're almost KILLED" Lucas rolled his eyes. Mike scoffed and looked at them.

"what's the wrong in going there again? There's no more Russians or mind flayers, I'm pretty sure it'll be safe" Mike walked past them to the door.

"classic Mike" He could hear Dustin say that. They got out and got on to their bikes.

"now come on" Mike ride his bike with the others to starcourt. They arrived and parked their bikes.

"holy shit, can't believe we're here again" Mike said to himself. Lucas walked beside him.

"yeah, it's been 3 months" They got in and starcourt was the same, just less crowded. Mike looked around for food they might buy.

"hey Mike, how many cash you got?" Max hits Mike's shoulder.

"three dollars and fifty scents" he sighed and the others too.

"we can't buy ANYTHING with three dollars and fifty scents nowadays dumbass" Dustin said. While Mike suddenly smiled.

"thinking about el huh Mike?" Lucas scoffed and Mike rolled his eyes.

"come on Lucas, just imagine Max moving away" Mike walked away.

"WAIT MIKE- I'M JOKING" Lucas chased him.





"El, el wake up" Will shakes her shoulders so she wakes up. El slowly opens her eyes and smiled.

"we're here?" El rubs her eyes and got up.

"yeah, I called Mike from your supercom is that okay?" will helped her up. She nodded and went to the bathroom. Will went to his room and grabbed his supercom.

"Mike are you there?" Will quietly said, scared if El will notice.

"yeah, I'm here. Lucas is being a total jerk" Mike sighed and will smiled.

"isn't he always" they laughed. Mike was home early after Lucas teased him. Not really, but Mike's pretty sensitive.

"what did he say?" Will said curiously.

"he said that I'm too, emotional to miss El as much as I do" Will's enthusiasm got away. He was talking about El the whole time? Will thought to himself.

"oh" he replied, Mike put on a little smile.

"everything okay Will?" his voice made Will's heart skipped a beat. Will strutted to reply.

"y-yeah, got to go eat, talk to you later okay?" Will puts the antena down from his supercom. He felt, jealous, even though he knows Mike loves El. But he can't seem to get over it.
