ll . f o u r • will the wise

Mike and I were still trying to wake Will up as everyone ran towards us.

"I just found him like this" I told the four who had finally reached us

"I think he's having another episode" Mike added. Joyce ran straight for Will, and I moved to the right to make room for her.

"Will! Will! Sweetie, wake up! It's Mom! Will, wake up! Can you hear me? Will please just wake up." Joyce yelled as she continued shaking Will, trying to wake him up. We all stood watching, not knowing what to do or how to help.

"It's Mom! It's me!" Was the last thing Joyce yelled before Will gasped for breath and opened his eyes widely.

"Will, are you okay? What happened? What did you see?" Joyce asked, but Will didn't say anything and continued to stare blankly at the sky above the school. We stood there silently waiting for Will to answer, or say anything.

"Come on, we are going home." Joyce told him wrapping her arm around his side and walking with him towards the school. The kids and I followed behind them, the two went to grab his bag as we continued being silent. Joyce and Will made their way to the front of the school.

"Okay, that totally freaked me out. Did that not freak you guys out?" Max asked while we all stood on the steps as Joyce and Will continued to their vehicle.

"Two episodes in two days" Lucas told us

"It's getting worse." Mike added

"You think it's True Sight?"

"What's True Sight?" Max asked looking over to Lucas. I notice Mike shaking his head, telling Lucas to not answer.

"It's nothing." He replied looking back to the Byers vehicle as Joyce backed up.

The kids decided they wanted to bike home with Max who rode her skateboard. I got home and did what I always do, clean, homework and then got ready for bed. While I was laying down on my bed, staring at the darkness surrounding my room, with the dim light from the street lamp shining through my curtains, all I could think about was Will.

I didn't find out what happened to him, and if he was okay. Will didn't deserve what happened to him last year, and he didn't deserve what was starting again this year. He is a good kid, he should be worried about school not about the monsters making their way back to Hawkins, or had they even left? I continued to ask myself questions I knew I couldn't  get the answer to, until I was to tired to think anymore and fell asleep.

The next day went by as usual, driving to school alone, going into school alone, wondering where Nancy and Jonathan were this whole time.

Steve had a basketball practice again today and I decided to go visit him. When I got into the gym making my way to the stands before even looking at the gym class playing. When I got to the top of the stands I set my stuff down and looked at the gym floor to see a shirtless Billy letting his hand go of Steves causing him to fall again, making me glare at Billy for his childish actions. Once Steve hit the ground a second time he looked over to me and gave me a smile before pushing himself back up and continuing the game. Steve and Billy had been going at it the whole game but no one pushed hard enough to knock the other down again, by the end of the few games they had, I jumped down from the stands and made my way over to a sweaty Steve who was grabbing his bottle.

"Billy is a real asshole." I told him as he turned around with his bottle in hand and gym bag.

"That was probably the one thing Nancy was wrong about" he said with no emotion while he threw his gym bag around his shoulder

"Steve, don't do that to yourself again" he didn't respond as he just continued his way to the mens change room, stopping before he opened the door.
