The next morning Joyce woke up to the sound of plates and cutlery. She walked out of her room to see her son, already after a shower and in new clothes, in the kitchen making waffles while a girl with buzzed hair and Will's clothes was sitting by the table, playing with Chester as she waited for the breakfast to get ready.
"Why hello there, what a nice mornig." Joyce greeted the two with a smile.
"Hey mom." Will said from the kitchen, Eleven just waved at Joyce with shy and little scared smile.
"So, I heard something about you, I'm Joyce." Joyce said, sitting down next to Eleven.
"She doesn't talk much, mom." Will said, placing a place of waffles in front of Eleven.
"That's not really a breakfast." Joyce laughed.
"She loves waffles." Will said, going to put another two waffles in the toaster.
"And how did you know if she doesn't talk?" Joyce asked.
"You still don't believe me about last night, do you?" Will sighed.
"So, you have superpowers, Will said." Joyce turned to Eleven, who focused her eyes on the waffles, making one float and ripping it into few smaller pieces, sending one flying over the living room as Chester chased after it, Eleven kept the waffle piece floating for a while, leaving Chester to jump in attempt to catch it, before letting it fall to the floor, Chester eating it right away.
"So, does that answer your question?" Will asked as Eleven wiped blood off her nose, turning to her waffles.
"So, we can't tell anyone she's with us, or that she even exists?" Joyce turned to Will.
"Yeah, if we don't wanna die." Will said, at the time Jonathan entered the room as well.
"We're gonna die if what?" Jonathan asked.
"If we tell someone a girl with superpowers who escaped the Hawkins lab is living with us." Will explained, bringing Eleven another two waffles, going to put another two in the toaster.
"Will, I think that's enough waffles for one morning, okay?" Joyce chuckled.
"Okay, sorry." Will said, leaving the kichen as Jonathan walked in to start on his usual crumbled eggs.
"Did you wash the dishes?" Jonathan turned to his mother, who shook her head.
"I did." Will said, also sitting at the table, stealing one of Eleven's waffles, she didn't seem to mind, though.
"Wow, a girl enters your life and look at you, doing dishes." Jonathan says in a teasing tone.
"It's not like thaaaat." Will whined, Joyce giving Jonathan a glare, he just shrugged, mouthing a quiet "Sorry."
Soon it was time for everyone to leave, Joyce to work, Jonathan and Will to school. Will turned to Eleven.
"Okay, so we have to go, but you have to stay here with Chester, okay? If you were hungry, the waffles are in the fridge, I'll come back right after school, okay?" Will said to Eleven, she nodded in understandment.
"Okay, cool." Will smiled, waving at the girl, leaving after his mom and brother.
Will biked to school, as usual, meeting up with his friends on the way, as usual.
"Hey, Will." Dustin said, smiling at him.
"Hi." Will said back as the other two boys said their hellos too.
They got to school, attending their classes, as usual. Nothing changed, Will would draw in some of their classes because he just lacked the interest in given subject, which wasn't anything unusual.
