Mike Wheeler x Reader. (DISCONTINUED)

Chapter 3

Y/n's Pov

I woke up the next morning to the sound of Mike's voice on my walkie talkie. The clock read 5 AM which was too early to be getting ready for school, so I shut the walkie talkie off. Once I plopped back down onto my pillow my telephone rang and I immediately knew that it was Mike.

"Hello? Mike, do you know what time it is?" I ask groggily.

"Y/n! You have to stay home today! We need to go out and look for Will."

"Here's a good idea! How about we all go to school and just look for Will after school."

"Alright, alright."

~~~At School~~~

Me, Mike, Lucas and Dustin parked our bikes and locked them once we arrived to school, Mike clearly being out of it like he's been up all night. Lucas gave us all a weird look before eventually speaking,

"Why are you even hiding the freak in the first place?"

"Stop! She's not a freak!" Mike defends.

Why was he defending her? I mean, I already care for El a lot but I still feel a little pinch of jealousy.

"Why don't you just marry her??" Lucas asks angrily.

"What? What're you even talking about?"

"I see the way you look at her! You're all like, 'Oh El, I love you!'"

"Guys, just stop!" Dustin and I yell in unison.

Mike looks to me then to Dustin giving us a weird look. Does Mike really love El? Is so, then why would it even matter?

It wasn't too long before those idiotic bullies snapped me out of my thoughts.

"Hey frog face!" Troy mockingly calls out.

"Come on guys, let's just go." Mike says before Troy trips him causing him to land on his face. They finally walk off laughing as we're helping Mike up.

"Are you okay Mikey?" I ask, as Mike is brushing the dirt off of his clothes. Mike only nods and we head to our classes.

~~~Time Skip~~~

After school the boys wanted to look for Will but he was somewhere else, somewhere only El could take us. Eleven wouldn't talk about where Will was and it was starting to get irritating because we all wanted our friend back.

"Before we take El out in public we should dress her up ya know?" I to which everyone nods in response.

We head back to Mike's and search through Nancy's things, finding one of her dresses and a blonde wig from a previous Halloween at the Wheeler's.

~~~ANOTHER TIME SKIP~~~

We'd all been out looking for Will for hours even though we knew he wasn't in this dimension. Soon the sun had set it began getting really dark out, to which the only light we had were flashlights that were attached to our bikes. Since Eleven didn't have a bike she rode with Mike and I wasn't too happy because it reminded me of a time when Mike and I were really little.

~~~FLASHBACK~~~

Mike and I were riding bikes around the wooded area near Will's house around noon, we were about 10 years old. I decided I'd challenge Mike to a race.  "C'mon Mike! First one to reach the lake wins!" I shout speeding ahead of Mike. "Hey, that's no fair! You had a head start!" He whines back, struggling to peddle faster. I look back once more to see if he'd caught up any and that's when I crashed, the bike and I tumbling over and hitting a tree.

"Y/N!!!!" Mike rushes over to me helping me up. You could see worry all throughout his face.  "You're pretty scratched up Y/n/n.." (Your Nickname) The pain that shot through my entire body was soon going away and Mike was able to help me stand. "Hehe, I crashed and I still won!" I shout confidently.
"Y-Yeah, about that," Mike points behind me, "Look at your bike.." I quickly rushed over to my damaged bike, the wheel was bent and it was unable to ride. I was just as crushed as the bike.  "I loved that bike..." I say starting to cry, but Mike crouches down next to me rubbing my back. "Hey, from now on you can always ride on the back of mine. I-I mean, I-if you..ya know, w-wanna." He says nervously. I just smile and jump on him giving him a big hug, leaving him red faced. "THANK YOU MIKEYYY!!!"

~~~END OF FLASHBACK~~~

Sirens were heard from a distance until an ambulance and a police car zoomed past us. We all looked at each other and decided to go after it. They stopped at the edge of the lake, pulling something out of the water. Holy shit it was a body....yet another holy shit, It was Will...
