That got a smile out of Mike, mouth curling against hers...but he knew he had to be careful, maybe even stop, because this was Eleven. There were things--a lot of things--she didn't know, and asking what they were just a little while ago was proof of that.
Groaning at himself in his own head, Mike gave himself five more seconds to just enjoy kissing her, then broke away just enough to rest his forehead against hers, staying close but giving himself enough room to breathe, to think.
"You know," he began, still kind of breathless, "if we're boyfriend and girlfriend? There are...other things. We can do--besides kissing, I mean. But only if you want to. So..."
This was not a conversation he could have. Not right now, he wasn't sure ever. In the past, he just showed her and that was okay, but...that was just a kiss.
"I can show you. Sometimes." he finished, tugging her a little closer. "Just--if I do something you don't want, or you feel weird about? Punch me in the shoulder as hard as you can. So I get the message. Guys can get kind of stupid when there's kissing and...other stuff involved. Okay?"
