Max was awoken by her alarm and she turned around wanting a hug from her boyfriend but he was not there.

Instead was a note 'sorry I had to go home hopper said he wanted to talk to me but I'll see you soon P.S look under the pillow - Alex''

She lifted the pillow he slept on to find that Alex has left her one of his favourite hoodies and a big smile was brought to her face

—————

Alex reached the cabin and saw the door wide open it must've been El and he walked inside to see El angrily jabbing at the telephone

"Hey is everything okay?" He asked her worriedly

"Yes." She replied

Hopper was smirking in the background eating his cereal. What did he do now? Thought Alex

"What did you do?" Alex whisper shouted making sure El wasn't listening

"Oh nothing just told Mike he shouldn't see her for a bit" Hopper answered nonchalantly

"You did What!? You know she may kill you for that" Alex told him

"Yeah so to make it fair your not allowed to see Max which is why I asked you to come home"

"What!? I'm not obsessed like El and Mike why am i punished!?" This time Alex didn't keep his voice low
"She's gonna hate me if I avoid her!"

"Sorry kid I know it's not your fault I just don't need El breaking everything in the house like last year" Hopper said sadly

"You guys are so indulged in your social life. You barely even talk to me anymore so I'm creating time where you can hang out with me" hopper added

El had walked out of her room by the time Hopper and Alex finished there conversation and threw the phone back in it's place and walked back into her room slamming the door.

Alex scoffed at hoppers idea of making them take a break "you know you could've be just asked me to hang out with you" and walked out of the cabin using his powers to slam to door behind him.

Hopper began to sing happily "and you don't mess around with Jim" but Alex just flipped him off and rode his bike to Mikes house

Meanwhile at Maxs house she had been waiting for Alex because they were suppose to practice a new skateboarding trick together but he had not shown up.

Instead El did. "Hey?" Max said picking up her skateboard

"Hi, can I talk to you?" El asked the red headed girl

"Um sure but first have you seen Alex today he never misses out on our Skateboard practices" Max asked El

"He's at Mikes house, apparently his Nana is sick" El told her

Max pretended to smile but her heart hurt to know that Alex ditched her for Mike.

————————-

Alex gave a simple wave to the group of boys in mikes basement. But then Alex directed his full attention to Mike

"Did my dad tell you to stop talking to El?!" Alex asked furiously

"Uh yeah yesterday, he made me lie to her and she knows I know she knows!" Mike spoke hastily

"yeah but out of your persistent arguing with him I'm not aloud to see max so thank you very much for that!" Alex shout at Mike

"Don't worry I have a plan I know girls" Lucas told them
