Dear will,
4/21/86
I can't believe it's been a month since I left California. I miss you guys (but especially you). I hope you haven't found any more attractive guys than me. It'll be hard too I know but I believe you could. I cant wait for summer! Maybe Joyce will let you come home and stay at mine? Hopefully it's less...Graphic than last summer. Then we can get the gang together for the best dnd campaign of our lives. Speaking of that I have to introduce you to Eddie. He leads hellfire (the dnd club) you two would get along nicely. I finally came out to someone here! Max was actually very supportive and understanding. Don't ask me why she knows it was an accident. I hope you have someone out there for you! Anyways I miss you so so much

Love, Mike <3

Dear Mike

I could never find a more attractive man than you. I miss you more than I can write. I want nothing more than to walk down to Hawkins from here and just spend the rest of my life there with you by my side. But at last I can't.
Joyce and hopper finally got together. The wedding is supposed to be next fall. They wasted no time I guess. He's out here and made work as a police officer again. But out here he's "James hopper, born and raised in Maine".
Oh and Els doing so much better since hopper came home. It's like a switch flipped, I guess she's made a new friend! And plus she's been talking to max none stop since after you two broke up. I also told El and Max about us and they seemed excited for us. Jonathan and my mom already kinda knew so I barely had to say the words and they understood me.
(Also. My mom was already planning on taking us up to Hawkins this summer)
I miss you a ton

Love, will <3
