"Holy shit..." Henry mumbled.

"Eleven" Mike says askthey walk towards eachother.

"Mike." She says as they hug eachother.

Tears starts coming out of their eyes as well.

"Is that..." Max looks at Lucas.

He nod as a response.

"I never gave up on you." Mike spoke as they pull away from the hug.

"I called you every night. Every night for--" She cuts him off.

"353 days." She finishes.

"I heard." She told Mike.

"Why didn't you tell me you were there? That you were okay?" Mike asks.

"Because I wouldn't let her." Hopper interjects.

Wait, what?

Does this mean Hopper knew where she was the whole time?

And he didn't tell us?

"The hell is this? Where you been?" Hopper questions El as he walks towards her.

"Where have you been?" El questions Hopper.

Hopper hugs El.

"You've been hiding her." Mike spoke.

"You've been hiding her this whole time!" Mike pushes Hopper.

Hopper turns to Mike, and grabs his collar.

"Let's talk. Alone." Hopper tells Mike as they walk into Will's room.

"Oh, my God. Ellie." I mumbled as I rush to hug her.

I wrap my arms around her neck, and she wraps her arm around me.

Ellie was the nickname I gave her when we first met.

That's what I have been calling her ever since.

"I thought you were gone." My voice cracks as tears rolls down my face.

"I know. But I'm here now." She replied.

"I never stopped thinking about you." I told her.

"Me, too." El responds

I pull away from the hug.

"Oh, God. I missed you so much." I told her.

"I missed you, too, Abby." She softly replied.

Max Pov:

Abby rushes to Eleven and wraps her arm around her neck, and Eleven wraps her arm around Abby.
