DUSTIN SHOUTED ANGRILY AT THE MACHINE, "NO! NO! NO! i hate this over priced bullshit!" "you're not nimble enough. but you'll get there one day, but until thenI princess daphne is mine!" lucas said showing off. "whatever," dustin mumbled, "at least i'm still top on centipede and dig dug!"

"are you sure about that?" a voice asked from behind them and they turned around to see keith shoving cheese puffs into his mouth. "sure about what?" dustin questioned and he read keiths expression, dustin ran over to the games, "you're kidding me! no, no, no, no!"

the group of friends, were peeking over dustins shoulder to see MAD MAX first with 751,300 points and AWESOME AVA in second with 741,250 points, leaving dustin third. 

"751,300 and 741,250!" will exclaimed in shock. "thats impossible!" mike whispered shoving his hands into his pockets.

dustin turned to keith questioning him who MAD MAX and AWESOME AVA where. "better than you," keith replied as a cheese puff fell out of his mouth and the group grimaced in disgust. "who is it? spill it keith!" lucas yelled in anger, showing he had clearly had enough. 

"you want information?" keith asked.

"yes!" dustin exclaimed. "then i'll need something in return," keith finished looking towards mike and everyone followed keiths gaze and stared at mike. "no, no, no! no way! you're not getting a date with her!" mike shouted and shook his head frantically.

"mike, just get him the date!" lucas protested getting annoyed, "never mind he would just spread his nasty ass to your hole family!" dustin shouted. "acne isn't a rash! and it isn't contagious you prepubescent wastoid!" keith yelled defending himself. everyone broke out in conversation disagreeing with keith, that they didn't notice will disappear.

"guys where's will?" mike asked saying it louder so everyone heard him, everyone scattered around looking for will. mike then noticed a figure standing outside the arcade in the dark and he scrambled to will. violently, mike shook will screaming his name in his face. a look of fear was plastered on wills face and his eyes were wide open, the young boy looked like he was in danger. 

"will!" mike shouted once more and will came out of his gaze, as mike sighed heavily, "are you alright?" will looked around confused at his surroundings and quickly replied with, "yeah, im fine." mike looked at will in worry but just shrugged, "let's get you back inside." all will did was nod. mike lightly chuckled at himself, "you're up on dig dug, lets take back the top score!"

the pair linked arms and walked side by side back into the arcade.

THE NEXT MORNING, it was a school day. the day many dreaded. everyone, was in the hallway grabbing their books out of their lockers and stopped to have a chat with their friends but when the popular group walked down everyone went silent. octavia, cassie, olivia and harlow the popular group in the partys year. as they walked down, everyone just stopped and when they got to their lockers everyone broke out into conversation again.

mike once had a small crush on octavia, but it slowly passed away once he met eleven but not she was gone and he was suffering. the one thing mike also knew was that octavia would never notice his party, they were stereotyped as losers.

the group of them walked into their first class, with mr clarke and took their seats. half of the class were sleeping on their desks because they were still exhausted from the weekend. as the door shut, everyones attention was the red headed girl that entered the room, the girl shuffled closer to mr clarke. you could tell how uncomfortable she was.

the girls arms were crossed, she looked moody. "class, please welcome, all the way from sunny california, the latest passenger to join us on our curiousity voyage, maxine!" mr clarke introduced and the girl furrowed her eyebrows in anger, "it's max."

"sorry?" mr clarke asked. "nobody calls me maxine," the girl mumbled, "its max." dustins and lucas eyes lit up they had found mad max, they just needed to found awesome ava. max goes and takes the only seat left, the one next to octavia. the party look behind them to see octavia introducing herself to max.

"we need to get to octavia!" dustin whispered to mike. "how do you that's going to happen!" mike said loudly and everyone stared at him.





                                                                        ✰༄





OCTAVIA SAW A SEAT NEXT TO MIKE and quickly took it when mr clarke wasn't looking. she tapped mikes shoulder and he turned around stunned to see octavia "its mike right?" octavia asked. "yeah," he replied. "do you have a pencil i could borrow?" she asked again. mike handed octavia and smiled happily at her. it was one of the first times he had smiled ever since they lost eleven.

"thank you," octavia whispered, "i'll see you around." lucas sat there with eyes widened, "did that just happen!" lucas exclaimed and mike nodded smiling going back to his work.
