Stranger things// "I'm not straight"

I knew it!

                                                                            Max's POV

I wake up to Lucas besides me, I see him stare at me. "Stop staring,stalker"- I say laughing, "You're cute, you know that?"- Lucas said smiling. "Of course I am"- I say flipping my hair than laughing. Then I hear some noise upstairs. I walk upstairs and I see the party sitting and talking, Will hiding behind Dustin. "Hey Willy!"- I say enthusiastically,trying to put Will in a better mood. "Hey Maxy"- Will said giving a weak smile."Are you going to tell him?"- I asked, "I'm scared..."- Will said with a slight frown. "Want me to tell him?"- I asked,"Please"- Will said, smiling.

"Hey Mike"- I said trying my best to smile."Oh,hey"-Mike, I could tell he was confused already."So you know how you hate LGBTQ+? Well I-"- I was about to say something else but then Mike cut me off. I already knew what was gonna happen."I KNEW IT!"- Mike screamed, shocking all of us."You do" Will said, not knowing what was gonna happen. "Yeah I do!. Max is Lesbian! I always knew it! This is why I have this tiny piece of me that hates you! We can't be friends, sorry *he shrugs his shoulders*"- Mike says with anger. I instantly slap Mike, "I"M NOT GAY, GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT, A GAY HUMAN IS STILL HUMAN!!HOW COULD YOU HATE SOMEONE JUST BECAUSE OF THEIR SEXUALITY. I'M STRAIGHT MIKE, NO NEED TO REMIND YOU BUT I'M DATING LUCAS. SO YOU SEE I'M NOT GAY... Will is!"- I practically screamed at Mike. I looked over to Will and he was sobbing into Dustin and Lucas's arms. "Come on guys."- I say, leaving Mike alone.

"We can't be friends anymore, sorry"- Mike. I felt my heart break to a million pieces. I start sobbing, Dustin and Lucas see and start hugging me, comforting me. I can't believe he said he wouldn't be friends with Max because he thought she was gay! If it was me in that situation, would Mike unfriend me too?

A million things rush into my mind. Max screaming and slapping me, Max saying that Will was gay. It just kept replaying in my head. I realized this all made sense. Yesterday Will cried because I said that I hated Gays and that they were freaks! I called Will a freak! I started crying, as soon as I realized what I did. I ran outside and got my bike. I rode my bike to Rosemary park, It was mine and the party's favorite park, I figured they would be there. I saw Will crying into Max's shoulder. I messed up really bad. I went over to them and Max started yelling at me.

Mike walked over to us and as soon as Max saw him, she started yelling. Lucas told Max to calm down and said "Come on guys, lets go". I went up to Mike, the rest of the party watching us. "What's funny is that when I came back from the upside down you told me that if I was going crazy we would go crazy together. Now I'm going crazy and it's because of you"- I say, then I walk away getting on my bike. Ignoring the calls from Mike and the party.

This lowkey made me cry.
