    Summary

    "I wish we could all meet back there," El whispers, as if completing Mike's thoughts. She breaks the plain waffle in half and offers it to him. "Home. Then we could all be together."

    Mike swallows, consumed by the deep sorrow that feasts on his body when he remembers they have no home to which to return.

    -

    Whenever Mike and El can't sleep, they have one tradition - sit on their kitchen floor, eat waffles, and share their innermost feelings and desires.

    Set in a canon-divergent universe where Mike and El travel around the world and live in Paris because they deserved their happy ending together.

    Summary

    The thing is, El has never understood the concept of personal space. Since she came back in 1984, ever since she integrated in their lives so smoothly and so warmly, Mike has had to get used to the fact that El treats distance with him as a personal insult.

    To lose her then was to lose a beautiful, wonderful, magical, tragic mystery from a little week of his childhood; to lose her now would be to lose his own heart.

    Or, seventeen-year-olds dealing with love. Set just before Season 5, ep 1.

    AKA: Five times Hopper made the kids feels safe, and the one time that he couldn't.
