Y/N's POV:

Day 99 of flirting with Will Byers, my childhood crush. I think I'm gonna ask him out tomorrow. After rotting in my room for the past 3 hours, I finally get the courage to get up and give my doo friend Robin a call. The phone dials and almost immediately, she answers.

"Hello?"

"Hey. It's Y/n."

"Oh, hey! What's up? I'm kind of getting ready for work right now."

"Oh, sorry. I'll tell you when you get to work."

"You sure?"

"Yeah, It's not a big deal."

"Ok!" Robin says before she hangs up.

Well I guess going to Will's house might have to wait. I had to get ready so that I don't like a mess anyway, so I guess I'll do that while I wait for her to get to work.

--------

When I park my bike in front of the Family Video store -where Robin and Steve work- I see Robin get out of Steve's car, which is obviously followed by Steve. Robin doesn't notice me yet so I have to walk over to her before she walks in.

"Robin!" I call.

"Oh my god, I didn't expect you to get here before me."

"I actually just got here."

"That's funny. So what did you need?"

"Can I tell you when we get inside?"

"Yeah."

We walk in and I say hi to Steve. The two go behind the counter and I stay in front, waiting for Robin to come back over and talk again.

"Thankfully nobody's here yet."

"Why's that?" Steve asks.

"It's about Will."

"Ohh! Wait why didn't you just say it when we were on the phone?"

"Because 1, I didn't want to keep you from getting ready for work, and 2, I'm not out to my parents and they would be able to hear me through my thin walls."

"That makes sense." Steve adds.

"Anyway, I think I'm gonna ask him out tomorrow."

"Really?! Well, I wish you luck!" Robin says.

"Thanks. But I need to know how I'm gonna do it. You guys are like my parental figures when I can't go to my real parents for this type of thing."

"Aw, that's so sweet! Well, I'm certainly not the love expert, but I think it should be so casual that he barely even thinks of it as a date, but he still knows it. I don't know, that's what I think, you should as Steve."

"Yeah, I don't know how it'll go for you guys because I've only ever been with girls, but definitely make it a date you think he would enjoy. Like maybe a date and a game of D&D, or go you could paint together. A date doesn't always mean eating."

"Thanks, I think I'll do that!" I say, then saying goodbye to my friends and leaving on my bike, riding over to the Byers residence. Today I'm keeping it chill, tomorrow is the day that I ask him out, so today is supposed to be chill.

"Y/n!" I hear a female voice call from a distance. I stop my bike and look around. "Y/n!" some calls again once more. Then I see Eleven walking up to me, pulling Will by his arm. "Y/n! There you are! We went over to yours house and we couldn't find you. Where were you?"

"I was at the Family Video store, why?"

"Well, I'll leave you two up to that." El says, running the opposite direction, leaving Will in front of me.

"El, wait!" Will says, turning his body the same way she's running but not following her. Will turns to me and his face turns red.

"Hey." I awkwardly say to him.

"Hi."

"...So..."

"Um."

Well this is awkward, but I think I know what's going on.

"How're you?" Will asks.

"I'm doing well. what about you?

"To be frank, quite nervous."

"Why's that?"

"Well..." Will trails off and sits down onto the curb, which I do the same. "I-I, um. I Like you." Will looks in the opposite direction of me and I can hear a sniffle coming from him.

Screw the ask him out on the 100th day, I'm doing it today.

"I like you too!" I say, in an excited tone.

Will almost snaps his head to me, in a look of disbelief.

"I've liked you since middle school. You're the best guy I've met in a long, long, long time. I wasn't sure this day would ever come, but here it is. In a world where we can't do this, we're doing it." I confess. Will forms a bright smile on his face.

"I'm so glad I noticed your terrible flirting." He teases. We laugh, still staring into each others eyes.

"Are you free this weekend?"

"Yeah, actually, my mom and Hopper won't even be home, my brother is rarely at home during the day, and El is usually out either with Mike or her friends."

"How do you feel about painting together tomorrow?"

I lift my hand and place it on top of his, and smile warmly to him. Will's cheeks are bright pink, as if he were wearing makeup. We stand up together and I walk him home, catching up on our secrets about being gay. When we get to his drive way, we stop and say a few last things.

"How does tomorrow at 4 sound?" I ask.

"Perfect."

"Ok, I'll see you tomorrow." I say with a wink and walk back home.

"See you then!" Will responds with.



Pinch me, am I dreaming? I'm so happy it didn't all go to hell.
