Nine- Away for the weekend

ELEVEN
When I woke up, I could still feel Mike's hands wrapped around me, so I quickly got up and quietly made my way to the kitchen. I heard footsteps and I felt a pair of arms wrap around me.

"Morning honey..." Mike said as he kissed my neck.

"Morning baby..." Mike said as he gently rubbed my stomach. I felt a kick and I smiled.

"Why aren't you dressed? Don't you have a teachers retreat this weekend?" I asked, looking at a half naked Mike.

"I'm not going El. I'm staying here to help you..." Mike said as he sat at the table.

"Mike...you need some time away..." I said as I placed a plate full of food in front of him.

"El...I need to be here. With your constant nightmares, the baby and you vomiting, I can't risk you being alone here. I mean...what if something happens while I'm away?" Mike asked, concerned about me.

"Mike...I called Will, Max, Dustin, and Lucas and they are all more than happy to take care of me while your gone..." I said smiling.

"They'll be here in 10 minutes..." I said. Mike got up and kissed me before going into the bedroom and getting changed. While he was in there, the entire party arrived.

"If anything happens to her...you guys are dead..." Mike said as he left the house, giving me a smile as he got into his car.

Within 5 minutes, Mike was gone and the party was here.

"So...you told him?" Lucas asked.

"Yeah?" I asked confused.

"I suspected it..." Lucas said straight forward. That would explain my dream yesterday.

After a 6 hours, it was time for me to go to bed.

"Here's what's going to happen. Max and Eleanor will sleep with me in the bedroom, one of you two of you can take the pull- out couch and one of you can take the guest bedroom." I said.

"I'll take the bedroom!" Both Lucas and Dustin yelled at the same time.

"I'll take the bedroom!" Dustin said a second time before Lucas could.

Dustin walked into the guest bedroom while Max put Eleanor in bed.

"Looks like your sharing the couch with me Lucas..." Will said happily.

While Max was changing, Will walked in.

"Are you gonna be ok El?" Will asked, clearly worried.

"Max will be right next to me Will. I'll be fine." I said as I got into bed.

I closed my eyes and I listened as the entire house was silent.

I sat up. Max was laying beside me, and Eleanor was sleeping soundly. I got up and grabbed a glass of water before I vomited. Once I cleaned myself up, I walked out into the living room. I noticed something strange. I saw a red dot on Will's chest. I walked over to his side of the bed and looked. I saw blood dripping from his chest.

"WILL! OH MY GOD!" I shouted as stood beside him.

I noticed the red dot on Lucas' chest as well

"LUCAS!" I yelled. I ran over to him and held him as blood ran from his chest down the front of his body.

"DUSTIN!" I yelled as I ran to the guest bedroom. I opened the door and rushed to his side. I held him up and looked into his bloodshot eyes.

"El...save me..." He said before he took his last breath. I slowly laid him down on the bed and rushed to my room, going to see if Max was alright. I saw the red dot on her chest so I started to cry.

"MAX!" I shouted as I shook her. No response. All of my friends were dead. Except...Eleanor!

I ran over to Eleanor to make sure she wasn't dead and luckily she wasn't. I picked her up and I ran outside, yelling for help. I held Eleanor close to me as a storm started to form. Lightning struck and I ran back inside. Once I shut the door and I looked behind me, I felt a pair of hands grab me. I looked to see a Russian man who looked familiar. I tried to scream, but his grip tightened.

"Hold still Eleven..." He said as he stuck a needle full of liquid into my shoulder. I dropped Eleanor and fell to the floor.

I sat up, my body once again drenched in sweat. I was breathing heavily and all of a sudden, Lucas, Max, Will and Dustin were by my side.

"I-I h-had a-another n-nightmare..." I said as I tried to slow my breathing.

"We know. We all woke up to the sound of you screaming our names..." Will said as he hugged me.

"M-Maybe...M-Mike s-shouldn't h-have l-left..." I said my voice still really shaky.

"No. You're fine. You're ok..." Max said as she also hugged me.

Today marked the first day of a three day sleepover, consisting of my friends constantly checking up on me and making sure I was ok.
