discontinuation.

Hey lol,

So this chapter has been a long time coming, and by long time i mean it's literally been six months since i last updated.

To get this started, i would like to apologize to anyone who has enjoyed this story or its previous counterpart or anyone who has been waiting for an update. However, i have decided to discontinue it and here are the reasons why.

First, i have been unhappy writing this story for a long time now, i had ideas i really liked, however, i always felt as though i was wasting them on a story i didn't care about, a story i wasn't proud of. This story became a chore rather than something i found joy in doing.

Second, i am a firm believer that Will is gay and due to that fact it makes me really uncomfortable writing a love story about him with a female s/o.

Third, i'm done writing x readers. i have been done with x reader's for a year or so now, this and "i don't smile," being my only x readers. i am very passionate about writing, and for me x readers have always felt unprofessional (not that they are, it just felt that way for me). i want to learn how to develop characters properly and that's hard to do with x readers because you never want to make y/n make mistakes or have any flaws.

fourth, the whole reason i started this story was as an outlet. I had finished watching ST3 and had a lot of inspiration and no where to put it, so i started this.

and finally, the previous story. I recently went through that story very briskly and I think that it is poorly written. I think i wrote y/n's backstory in an insensitive and unrealistic way. My only knowledge of stories at that point in time were bad boy x good girl stories and those tend to be very toxic. I think y/n didn't deal with trauma realistically or healthily.

Because of my lack of pride when it came to these stories, and how much i believe they reflect negatively rather than positively on my writing skills due to how much i've grown as an author since started them, i did contemplate deleting them from my page. However, as the first one has seemed to bring joy to over 200,000 people and this one 30,000, i've decided to leave them up.

I've thought about writing a chapter with a basic outline of what i thought would happen in this story if i were to continue it, so if you're interested in that let me know.

And to my followers, I have many stranger things and other fandom (almost every show/movie series named in my bio has a fic im planning and in some cases [harry potter and stranger things] more than one fic) related stories planned so if you want to stick around for those it would be greatly appreciated. If you only followed me for these stories and want to unfollow now that i will not be continuing them that is understandable.

Thank you all for supporting me unconditionally, even when i would disappear for months on end. I love and appreciate you so so much <3

Bye for now.
