I promise ✔️

Eleven p.o.v
Lunch came around and I was out of the class in matter of seconds.
"El wait up!" Max said coming after me.
"I'm hungry hurry!" I said rushing her.
"Are you? Or are you just trying to avoid Mike?" Max whispered.
"I'm not trying to avoid. I AM avoiding him" I said grabbing a tray to get food.
"What did he tell you?" Max asked.
"That he couldn't you forget me, that he couldn't just pretend that he didn't care about me" I said smiling at the lunch lady.
"Hello Jane, how are you sweetheart!?" Lola said.
"I'm good Lola, and you?" I asked.
"Very good thank you for asking." She said as I smiled and walked away with Max.
"I swear you're the only one that the lunch lady likes" Max said.
"Maybe because I treat her like an actually person" I said.
"Maybe that's why" Max said laughing.
"Are you guys eating with us?" Lucas asked pointing at our usual table.
"No I'm going somewhere else. Tell Dustin thank you for the chocolate" I told him.
"I'll keep an eye out for this bitch" Lucas said looking at Isabella.
"You sure you don't want me to come?" Will asked.
"No I'm fine, thanks Will" I said.
"Oh and give Dustin my chocolate pudding" I said handing Will the pudding.
"Okay" He said.
"Max?" I asked.
"You know I'm coming with you" she said.
"Maybe not today" I said looking at her pleadingly.
"I'm not gonna leave you, are you kidding?" She said.
"I just want some time for myself. Think. It will just be today." I said.
"I don't think—" she began.
"Please" I begged.
"Okay fine." She sighted.
"Thank you" I said hugging her and walking to the gym room.
I sat there and ate my food, by myself letting my thoughts torment me.
'He doesn't love me and never did, Eleven!' I told myself.
"I know you probably won't believe me but I care about you a lot" I heard someone said.
"I don't blame you and I'm not mad at you. It was your choice." I said.
"Don't blame yourself" Mike said sitting down next to me.
"There is no one else to blame but me. And I'm sorry for making you promise something you didn't want to promise" I said.
"So we can be friends again?" Mike asked softly.
"No Mike, we can't be friends. I'm doing this for me. I need distance and time. It's the better for the both of us" I whispered.
"No it's not. We don't need distance or time. El, 352 days I waited for you to come back. I don't wanna loose you again. I can't loose you again. Not if I can stop it" He said getting up and facing me.
"I'm not leaving. I'm just not gonna be around you as much" I said.
"You are pushing me away El, and I don't want you. I'll tell Bella to not hang out with us at lunch, but please El don't push me away" Mike begged grabbing my face in his hands.
"But you will be unhappy, I won't make you do it. You need to figure out your feelings and space will help clear things up" I said.
"But, Eleven." Mike said.
"Please Mike don't make this harder for me" I whispered pulling away from him.
"Please El" Mike said.
"I'm doing this for me not for you. I'm not trying to hurt you, that's the last thing I want to do. But I have to make sure I'm okay as well. I need to find happiness somewhere else" I said grabbing my tray and my bag.
"Please don't leave me again" Mike whispered.
"I'm right here" I said walking away.
"Yet you're walking away" Mike said.
"Mike? Where are you? The bell ring?" I heard a voice.
"I'm coming Bella!" Mike yelled.
"I'm walking away from the hurt" I whispered to myself.
