His eyes flew open. It had been another dreamless and scary night, but suddenly, he remembered something. He raced to one of the rooms and started to do the Morse code of 'Joyce. Are you there?' on one of her lights
"Hop?" He heard the most beautiful voice call out. Joyce
He did Morse code for 'I'm here.'
After a few minutes, she answered " 'I'm here.' H-How are you alive?" Joyce asked. She could actually hear him!
'I'm in the Upside Down.' He responded through the light.
After a few more minutes, she finally said "H-How?"
'I jumped into the portal.' He told her
"W-Wha-"
Suddenly, he heard a different voice "JOYCE! Where the hell are you? Who are you talking to?"
Was that Lonnie?
He didn't ask her because he heard her yell "Coming!"
After she left, he basically did nothing for hours until he heard Joyce's voice again
"Hopper? I'm here. Talk to me." She muttered
'I'm here. Who was that?' He asked her through the light
"No one." He could tell she was lying to protect him, so he didn't say anything "How do I get to you?"
'I don't know. I might just be stuck here.' He didn't want to scare her, but it was the truth
"No, that won't happen. I'll get you out of there."
He smiled to himself. Not only was he hearing her voice, but he also love that her fiery passion hadn't changed. Damn he was in love with her
Wait, what? He thought. He knew he had a crush on her, but was that becoming love? It most certainly was.
"Hop?"
'Yeah, don't worry. Still here.' He answered
"I can't bealive I'm actually talking to you." Joyce admitted "What Will? Sorry Hop."
Then, he could tell she left. He smiled to himself. She hadn't changed one bit.
He realized he hadn't eaten yet, so he ripped a piece off the deer and began to eat. It was the worst thing ever, but better than starving. When he found his way out of that place (which he would do), he wanted to eat good food. He was suddenly craving Joyce's food, which didn't help anything. Oh god, he was so in love with her, it was crazy. Another thing: El. He missed El. He was scared what happened to her. Hopefully, she went with Joyce or someone. The thing that was killing him was that voice earlier. Had that been Lonnie? Why was Lonnie there? Did he manipulate Joyce into coming back to him? Or even worse, did she just come back to him? Did she still love Lonnie? Then why did she ask him out? What was going on?
(A/N: Sorry I haven't updated in a while, I've been on a short vacation, but now I'm back.)
