Micheal's Pov:

"Mike hurry up and come here!"

I wake up, soaking wet in sweat and breathing heavily as I slightly hold onto both of my shoulders looking around.

I gather my thoughts together as my sister Nancy burst into my room properly dressed.
"Mike, you're not dressed?!"
She said angrily as she put her hands on her
hips, rolling her eyes in disbelief.

I stare at her and look down to where my blankets were. Knowing she was still waiting on an answer, I slightly and slowly shake my head no.
"We're going to be late because of YOU!"
She said putting her hand on her forehead
showing she was stressed by the looks of it.

She then walked out of the room, giving me the time to get dressed for school.

I quickly got up, fixed my hair, and put on my white shirt and jeans with my converse.
As I rushed out of the door, Nancy wasn't there. She must've left me, as I scoff in disbelief. I grabbed my backpack and ran out
the door and hopped on my bike.

   As I peddle with the wind blowing in my face
and my hair flowing with the pattern, I check
the time on my watch and it is 8:07! I peddle
faster as I saw the horrid time on my watch.
               I raced all the way to school to
   see a boy with dark brown hair and a red
striped shirt, pulling the door handle with all
of his strength to open it.

I looked at the boy weirdly before I hopped off of my bike and parked it where it goes.
                           "Um, hello."
        I said as I walked up to him with both
  my hands in my pocket, putting a piece of hair
behind my ear.
                "Oh, Hey! Just.. having trouble
         opening this door." He said still pulling
   onto it with all his strength, falling on the
floor with his hands slipping.

                  "Oh god! Are you okay?"
       I said putting my hands out of my pocket
   and holding a hand out to help him up.
                He takes my hand and I pull him up.
        As I do, we ended up really close to each
    other and backed away.

                    Oh, sorry." He said backing
             away slowly, putting a hand behind
        his neck as I see his face turn red.
              "It's fine! I never caught your name?"
          I asked swinging my body back and forth
      shyly.

                    "It's Will, Will Byers!"
            He said putting out a hand so I can
       shake it. "You?" He asked raising an
  eyebrow, smiling.
                  "The name's Micheal Wheeler, but
             Mike for short!" I reassured him,

        pointing a finger at him jokingly.

I walked to the door where Will was trying to open it, I slightly grabbed Will's hand and led him to the door.
                 "101: How to Open a Door. By
           Micheal Wheeler." I said jokingly
      looking at Will, smiling at him.

        "Shut up!" He said laughing pushing me
jokingly, putting his hand on my shoulder to
keep himself from falling onto the ground
from laughter.
"So, step one. *PUSH* the door and walk
inside." I said laughing at the look on Will's
face as it redden from embarrassment.

"You have GOT to be kidding me!"
He said putting his hands on his face to
cover it up as his hair flowed in the
pattern of the wind.
I walked him in and went to the office for
tardiness for being late and spending all the
time talking and teaching Will how to push a
pull door.

As we walked out the office with both of
our "Tardy Tickets." And Will's Daily School
Schedule, I walked him to his new locker.
"You new here? I haven't seen you around."
I asked as I leaned against the locker Will
was next by.

"Yeah. I don't know my way around. I just
moved from California." He said stuffing his
stuff in his locker, waving his hand around as
he was talking.
"Oooo, why'd you move? I heard Cali's a
beautiful place to live in." I asked tilting my
   head to the side, getting off the locker and
crossing my arms together.

"Yeah...Not it's people though. My sister
got bullied half to death there. By random
ass kids who don't even know her like I do."
He said looking at me putting a hand behind
his neck and tapping his foot rapidly.
" I'm so sorry to hear that. I hope she's okay. "
I said putting a hand on his shoulder and
staring at him in the eyes.

"It's okay, it's not your fault."
He said closing his locker, clicking his lock
back on and looking at his schedule confused.
"Um, is it okay if you showed me where
science is?" He slightly laughed and pointed

to his schedule where it says science for his
first period.

         "Oh, we have the same first period! Of
     course I can show you." I said holding his
   his hand as we ran through the hall and up
      the stairs to get where we needed to be.
                      "Mike! Slow down!"
              Will laughed as we ran down the
        hall looking at the numbers on the doors
            trying not to be late for science.

We were both laughing as we finally made our way to science. We were both out of breath and sweating but we're still laughing as we opened the door to science.
                           "Your late!"
          Miss Ligma said as she stared at us
       angrily. The whole class then looked at us.
                  Me and Will just stood there and
               stared at her trying not to laugh. We
           covered our mouths holding it in.

         "What are you just standing there for?
         Sit your asses down!" She said as she
      pointed her ruler at the two empty seats
               that were left in the class.
                      "Ligma balls."
          I mumbled as I put my head down
   as Will and the whole class started laughing.

       "Micheal! I've had it with you. This is your
     last and FINAL chance!" She said pointing
  a finger at my face and slamming her ruler on
                             her desk.
       "I bet you don't even have your Tardy
   Ticket." She said rolling her eyes and putting
            a hand on her hip in annoyance.

           "I BEG to differ Miss." I said giving her
         my ticket flipping my hair like I was a
      mean girl.
                       "Ugh! And you..boy.Do you have
                     yours?" She said looking at Will
                  as he was picking his skin.

            "Oh. Yeah I do." He said giving her
       the ticket politely. Putting a hand behind
                          his neck shyly.
               "Finally someone in here who has
         class!" Miss Ligma said rolling her eyes
             and looking at me and the class.

I rolled my eyes and sat in the empty seat that stupid bitch told me to sit in. Will then sits next to me since that was the only seat left in the class.
           When Miss Ligma was teaching, I ripped
         a piece of paper from my notebook slowly
           so the teacher couldn't hear it and wrote

             down something and passed it to Will.

          Will then spots it and I see him write
        something down and passes the paper
                              back to me.

               I looked at Will and smiled and he
            smiled back and looked forward to the
             board as I write something else down.

He looked at me and suddenly the bell
And I looked at him and smiled
"I told you so."
I said as I grabbed Will's hand to go to lunch

"Mike! I told you to slow down!"
Will laughed as we ran through the crowds and
into the lunch room where my party was.
"Hey guys!"
I exclaimed as I sat next by my group of friends

"Hey Mike! Who's the new boy?"
Dustin said with a mouthful of food in his
mouth, still eating.
"Oh, I'm Will!"
Will said putting a hand at the back of his head
and swaying back and forth.

"Hey Will, come sit with us!"
Max said patting her hand on a empty seat
between me and Max.
Will sits down laughing shyly and smiled at the party for showing him kindness.

"So Mike, are we still coming over next
weekend?" Lucas asked as he ate his lunch.
"Yeah, nothing has changed. Since we have
spring break next weekend, you all can stay
the whole week!"
I said as I smiled at the party and Will.

"Score, up top!"
Lucas and Dustin said as they both high
fived and cheered.
"I'm down. I have nothing else to do for
the week."
Max shrugged as she looked at her nails
back and forth.

"Yeah, same as Max!"
Jane said as she side-hugged Max and
winked at me which made me feel
uncomfortable and I think Will noticed.
"Oh, we forgot to introduce ourselves!"
Dustin said as he slapped his forehead

"Oh yeah! I'm Lucas."
"The name's Max."
"And the best of them all, Dustin!"

They all looked at Dustin weirdly and he sat down and laughed, making the whole table laugh.
Seeing Will laugh and smile and feel
welcomed is..pretty nice.

I can't wait till' spring break!
