3rd person,

      "Jonathan, I need one more box!" Will screamed across the hall. "Got it," Jonathan replied back. They were finally doing it. The big move! He was a bit nervous thinking about the new school he had to face, but it's California. He should be fine, yeah! Will ranted in his thoughts. About four and a half minutes later, Jonathan tossed a box quickly in Will's room and quickly hurried back to his room to pack up his own business.

      Will jogged up and out of his door, "Why are you rushing through this? We have time!" He questioned. Jonathan never answered. He checked his watch twice, soon realizing it was 11:30 not 10:30. "Leaving in 15!" Joyce shouted. As of that, he figured he'd just finish packing. After six minutes of shoving the last of his clothes into a box, Will ran out of his room and said, "I'm done!"

As everyone finished packing the moving trucks, they were finally ready. El, Hopper, Will, Joyce, and Jonathan all got in Hopper's truck and left. Will and Jonathan sat on both window sides and El sat in the middle, facing the windshield. "You guys want to play a game?" Jonathan started, "We have a long time driving so we might as well do something." El thought for a minute and came up with a game. "Let's do a scavenger hunt!" El shuffled through her backpack then looked at Will.

"Do you have like... a notepad or three pieces of paper? Pens? Anything we can write with?" She asked. "Yup, I do, well kind of," Will passed her three sticky notes and three pencils. "Wait, wait, wait, I know where you're going with this. Can I write the list?" Jonathan questioned. "Sure," She responded.

Jonathan soon after finished the list and rewrote it on all papers. "Okay, here," Jonathan passed slightly the lists. "Before we play, there are rules," El reminded, "You must go in order. You can only look for the next one after you found the one before it. And also whoever has the most or all by the end of the ride wins!" Jonathan and Will both muttered out an "okay" and a smile. Will observed what he needed to find.

27 minutes later they arrived in California

"El, wake up, we are here!" Jonathan woke up El as everyone else got out. "This is where we are living?!" Will cheered. Everyone but Joyce and Hopper ran into the house. "I pick this room!" El's voice echoed through the empty house. Jonathan and Will both went to check out her room and then went to find their own.

After finding their rooms, they shared their lists from the prior game in the car. El won, shocking Jonathan and making Will giggle a bit. Later, Jonathan suggested for them to look outside and around the neighborhood. El and Mike gladly accepted.

      "Hmm..." Will muttered. "Let's see if we can find any kids our age, hopefully they are cool with us!" Will spoke not looking at El, yet clearing speaking to her. "Okay," El remarked. They both saw three kids their age. One had dark curly hair with a beautiful face Will thought, even though he couldn't get a good glance. The next person had dark brown hair, and the other had brown curly hair.

      "Let's go up to them," El suggested. Will shook his head, "No, what if we embarrass ourselves?" El stared and shook him off when he said that, walking over anyways. When he got over, he recognized the face. Recognized him. Where have I seen that face?... Will trailed off in his thoughts, zoning out completely.

1st person,
pov: mike-

      Laughing with Lucas and Dustin was like dying. We laughed so hard that we couldn't breathe. School drama in California was unreal. As we laughed, we also noticed a girl and a boy walking towards us. Soon the laugher died. He wasn't looking at us, he was more looking towards the ground as the girl looked up at us.

"Hi, my name is... Jane," the girl, named Jane, started, "and this is Will." She pointed at him. "We are trying to make some friends in the neighborhood since we kinda just moved here, so what do you say?" She pleaded. I looked at Lucas and Dustin, then back to Jane and Will, shrugged, and simply replied with, "Sure!" They both smiled at that.

I looked at the boy, Will again. He looked so familiar and it wouldn't click. He looked nervous, he had beautiful eyes... maybe I shouldn't be thinking like this. This is wrong. Yeah. "So, you just moved here? From where?" Dustin questioned them. "Hawkins." Will replied. Hawkins? I remember that place! "Really? I used to live there!" I followed on. "Y'know, I had a pretty close friend there when I was like in kindergarten. We were friends for what... 3 years? After that I had to move. You look like him, not gonna lie." I told him. That's when we both realized.

We hugged immediately. I longed for a friend like him. We were so close. "I'm so surprised I didn't recognize you for a minute!" I stated, quite disappointed with myself. "Don't you have bad memory?" Lucas called me out. I glared at him as everyone laughed. I thought I was as happy as can be, but somehow someone I didn't know I was missing reappeared in front of my eyes.

first person,
pov: will

      It was him. It was actually him. My first friend and my first crush, as much as I didn't want to admit it. Vaguely, the scene played in my head. He came up to me as I pushed my legs forward and back on the swing. He asked me if I wanted to be friends. He had a constellation of freckles on his face, a bright smile, and a soft voice. I smiled immediately at the thought.

      After we all talked, it got later and darker by the second, so all of us separated to get rest. We moved during the school year, so after tomorrow, I'd be going back to school. I was dreading it. Hopefully El and I find some nice friends. When I got back into my room, I set up a mattress. Slowly but surely, It turned into the squishy bed it always would make. I laid some blankets and fell asleep.
