Summary
" I figure because this fort is in my basement, it’s a little safer, you know? And it might be warmer with all the blankets. You’re safe right? From the Demogorgon? El, there’s lots of lights down here and you can have my radio, in case you ever wanted to talk, to let me know you’re safe and that you’re coming back, because you did promise. I know, I know, I’m being an ass but, please come home okay? I keep the fort, I keep it up because I figured that if it’s in our reality, it’s in that one, cause they’re reflections of each other, right? The fort… the fort’s also gonna be here for you when you come home, but you have to come home, okay? Please, El… please.”
Mike keeps the blanket fort up for Eleven. Some days are harder than others.

It’s become a reflex. Holding Mike’s hand. Reaching out for him because he’s her anchor. Her center. Because he’s the missing piece in her chaotic mess of a puzzle, and the spaces between his fingers are right where hers fit perfectly.

Summary
Mike is learning that the only thing he hates more than crying, is watching her cry. It brings a new kind of heated emotion, one that is water boiling and glass shattering and screams deafening and the worst thing in the entire world all at the same time and more. It’s that moment, his back against the cabinets as he watches El sacrifice herself for him, for them, for the world and he’s never been more helpless in his life. Because he wants to catch El when she falls, but he worries he’s not strong enough, that the weakness that has followed him since the age of eight haunts him. She’s tied together with a smile, and when she comes undone, he comes undone with her.

Summary
“So let me get this straight,” Jonathan pops around the corner, holding a frying pan and simultaneously trying to drain the bacon grease into an old aluminium can. El sinks in her chair, knowing they were listening the whole time. “You two found the salt, Mike climbed up the aisle to get the salt because it was on the very top even though El could have, I dunno, gotten it with her powers, Mike then got stuck up there, and then when you two were about to get caught El exploded all the flour and sugar to make it so nobody could see her getting you back down, Mike?”
El and Mike nod, but share a quick look and a smile. They had left out some of the story, the part about El asserting they should break up walking them backwards into finally, finally, dating. But with Jonathan and Will eavesdropping in the kitchen and the almost certainty Joyce would repeat those specific details to the Chief, they kept it their secret.

Summary
“If I had to make that choice again, between your safety and my life, I would chose you,” El whispers, her gaze never wavering, never ever breaking. “Every single time.”
Everything is shattering, everything is breaking into a million pieces right before his eyes. “I can’t do this anymore.”
“I won’t ask you to.”
