IN WHICH max is mike's best friend...in a unlikely way...(you'll see-)
[14-15]
♡
the freckled boy and his embarrassing friends laughed at a show on the small tv in his basement.
"haha what a bitch!"
dustin exclaimed.
lucas hit his arm and laughed with him.
mike smiled and thought, "this day is just perfect, the four of us are hanging out, sadly without max and el, we're finally recovering!"
well, that's what he thought until...
max bust through the door, holding el's hand tightly.
the boys jumped in shock as max ran over to mike.
"holy shit what's going on!?"
the boys were hassled.
max and el looked serious.
"el are you okay?"
mike asked. max opened her mouth and started to speak,
"mike something is wrong with el!"
will grew concerned and so did lucas and dustin.
max and el looked at each other and started to laugh.
mike furrowed his eyebrows,
"what the hell is happening?"
max grabbed mike's hand.
"we'll be back stalker. don't have too much fun!"
el shit the basement door as the left the wheeler's house.
"where are we going! what is happening!"
max let go of mike and el's hands as they stopped in the middle of his driveway.
el started to speak, both girls still laughing,
"mike i-, i mean, yeah wait," she tried to hold her laughter.
mike was as confused as ever, eyeing the red head who loved his girlfriend just as much as him but, he didn't know that...
"so um max and i came back f-from joyce's job,"
el continued.
"i don't follow el."
max started to giggled.
"mike we picked up a few things,"
max said while grabbing a paper bag from the basket on her bright-yellow bike.
"el, do you care to show him?"
el and max laughed and el nodded.
el pulled out a pink plastic box. mike's eyes widened and max tried not to blow up with laugher.
it was a box of pads. to mike's prude brain it was a box of "feminine hygiene products".
el chuckled. mike shook his head,
"i-i don't understand."
mike looked at max. max rolled her eyes.
"god mike! el got her period!"
as soon as mike put together the words el and period, he was internally DYING.
he felt so bad and so remorseful.
"oh. oh. oh. wow, okay well i still don't-uh know why i'm out here...?"
max smiled,
"you can call me your guidance, a friend, ah maybe a friend of a girlfriend?"
el nodded and gestures mike to accept.
mike was reluctant into taking the offer,
"um el explain to me why i have to do this. i pay enough attention in health max and i know all about girl-ugh girl things. okay?"
el got closer to mike,
"mike she-she really helped me um today and if she isn't available to help with...girl things...i want you to help."
mike nodded slowly and hugged el, still looking at max,
"yeah-yeah okay. i'm doing this for you only okay?"
el nodded and smiled.
mike walked over to el,
"okay. fine teach me what you know."
max smiled and offered to shake mike's hand.
mike rolled his eyes and shook her hand.
el smiled and clapped in the background,
"okay so can we go take the medicine? my stomach hurts."
max and mike looked at each other and went over to el.
mike looked at max asking for permission. max nodded and mike kissed el.
"god okay ew let's go."
max giggled.
mike and max held el's hand and carried her inside.
the protection squad are finally...finally...FINALLY on good terms. from max making el dump mike, to mike being jealous that el was with max, they finally got to protect the one they love in peace,
together.
