Y/n had quickly gone to get hers and Wills stuff after he woke from his episode. Joyce took Will immediately too her car.

It was now the following morning after Wills episode in the field at school. When they got home yesterday Will had explained what happened in his episode. It was a lot more serious then they expected. It was clear Dr Owens was wrong, They were real. Not in his head.

Joyce had been trying to reach Hopper all morning and last night to give him the news, unfortunately she hasn't been able to and has been leaving lots of messages. Joyce tried to get y/n to go to school earlier but she refused saying  "No! I wasn't there for him the night he went missing and I'm here now."

While Joyce was on the phone y/n walked into Wills room to see how he was going.

"How are you feeling? Still weird?" She asked as she entered her brothers bedroom.

"Yeah." Will sighed. Y/n furrowed her eyebrows slightly. There was something off about Will. She couldn't really tell what, or how she noticed it but something definitely wasn't right.

They walked into the living room just as Joyce was getting off the phone. She asked Will the same questions y/n did and felt his temperature.

"Y/n, can you get me the thermometer." Joyce asked her daughter.

Y/n nodded and rushed to the kitchen cupboard that they kept the medical supplies in and got the thermometer and took it to her mother.

"Let me see." Joyce said and took the thermometer out of Wills mouth a few minutes later.

She looked at it with a confused expression on her face making y/n ask "Is everything okay?" And Will ask "Is it a fever?"

"No. Uh, actually, it's cold." Joyce answered. "Do you feel cold?"

"No, just a little out of it." Will answered. "Like I haven't really woken up yet."

"You promised no doctor." He added when Joyce got that look on her face.

"And I meant it. No doctor." Joyce said quickly.

"I'll go run a bath and it will warm you up and hopefully make you feel better." Y/n suggested and looked at her mother for reassurance and she nodded.

Y/n went into the bathroom and turned on the tap. Joyce followed her in and said "Something is not right."

Y/n nodded. "What should we do?" She asked.

"Hopefully Hopper will call back soon and with him we will be able to work it out." Joyce said.

Joyce was once again trying to contact Hopper while Will was getting ready for his bath. Y/n paced back and forth in the living room trying to think of what the hell could be happening to Will.

"The water is too hot." Will said as he emerged from the bathroom.

Y/n looked up at this. She was sure she got that bath temperature just right.

She listened to Joyce and Will talking in the bathroom to see what was going on.

"I can cool it down a little, baby, but we gotta get your water temperature back up." Joyce said as she started draining some water.

"No." Will said in a stern voice. Making y/n furrow her brows.

Will never usually sounded like that.

"What?" Joyce questioned, sounding just as confused and concerned as y/n was.

"He likes it cold." Will said in the same tone as before.
