Taking On Hawkins (ST cast x Reader)(Dustin x Reader)

Chapter 11: The Run In(to)

WOULD YA LOOK @ THAT I'M POSTING ON A MONDAY. I'MA PROUD MAMA STEVE @ MYSELF

Will's POV

I woke up for at least the third time since the episode I had last night. I tossed and turned all night, the same thought clouding my mind, why was y/n there? She had nothing to do with the events of last year.

I rolled out of bed and looked at my clock which read 6:46am. Well I guess I'm not going to get any more sleep...

I tried getting ready for the day but y/n was never far away in my mind. I need answers. I know what I saw, and I sure as heck know it wasn't a mere coincidence.

That's when it hit me.

Maybe Dustin knows something I don't! After all he can't seem to keep his eyes off her and he surely won't ever stop blabbering about her! Don't get me wrong, y/n is the sister I never had but, Dustin's favorite word is literally y/n.

I was just about to hop on my bike when my mom stopped me.

"Will, sweetie? Where are you going?"

"I was just gonna ride to Dustin's. Is that ok?"

"Honey, you know how I feel about you riding alone, can we see if he'll come pick you up?"

"Mom! It's literally a 6 minute ride tops!"

"I know that but-"

"Mom, I know I can do it. How about I call you the second I get there? Will that make you feel better?"

"Hm," I could tell my mom was mulling it over as she pursed her lips together and her gaze shifted upwards and slightly to the right. "Well, I guess I'll have to let you do this eventually so it may as well be now."

I felt a grin grow across my face and my eyes lit up. This was another step back into my normal self. I'm not sure I'll ever reach normal again but it's a start.

"Thanks Mom!" I beamed at her and I could tell she instantly approved her decision as she saw how happy I was. She may be protective but nonetheless an amazing mom.

-time skip-

I hopped off my bike and was about to knock on Dustin's front door when it swung open and Dustin came tumbling through it. He was yelling something over his shoulder to his mom so he noticed I was there only seconds after he ran straight into me and he fell on top of me on the cold, hard ground of his porch.

"Ow Dustin, watch where you're going" I said as I slightly laughed at his clumsiness.

"Omy god Will, sorry dude I was kinda in a hurry."

"No- I couldn't tell" I rolled my eyes and laughed as he pushed himself to his feet and stuck his hand out for me to grab. He hoisted me to my feet and smiled at me.

"I guess you could say I was glad to have run into you." Dustin smiled widely, clearly proud of his pun.

I simply replied with a cheesy grin, "Yea. Ok that was a pretty good one."

"Anyways, what can I do for you Will?"

"I- uhm I have a question about y/n."

Dustin's POV

Oh shit. No, he can possibly like y/n too! I mean wha-. Oh, who am I kidding y/n is amazing and I think I like her. As in, more than a friend...

I stare at Will and tried to collect myself quickly before drawing out the words "Go ahead-" while my eyebrows bunched together and I slightly squinted to show my confusion.

"Why is she here? Like is she in trouble? I know there's something going on that I don't know about."

Well at least he doesn't seem to like her like I do but now I have another problem on my hand. I promised y/n I wouldn't tell anyone about her scoliosis.

"I don't know what you're talking about-"

"Dustin please- I need to figure something out!"

"I can't tell you, ok?!"

"Ha! So you do know something-"

"I made a promise to her and I won't brea-"

"Listen to me! I think y/n's in trouble!"

Will's words spilled out of his mouth quickly to get his point across and you guessed it.

I sure as hell stopped everything.

My anger froze.

My talking stopped.

My expression became blank.

The words seemed to hit me like bricks. I've only known y/n for a few days but I already can't imagine not getting to know her. Not getting to see her laugh. Not getting to stay up late playing games or watching movies or just talking with her. Not getting to know her favorite color or her pet peeves. Not being able to see her smile or the way the sun glimmers on her y/e/c eyes. I don't want to ever have to face that idea.

"Alright Will, I guess you should know." Shit I hate breaking promises...wait a minute..., "BUT- instead of telling you, which would break my promise, how about I show you. Deal?" Boom. I found a loophole. God, I hope y/n won't hate me for this but I feel the need to protect her.

Will grinned at me and said "Deal. But one thing, can I borrow your phone real quick?"

QUESTIONS:

1. Are you guys ok with the POV not always being on y/n? 

2. Are you cool with me making an entire storyline (this is what I've been doing) rather than just a throw in a character in the script and make them fall for one of the character sorta deal?

DONT WORRY there will be some Dustin x Reader eventually, I just wanted it to be sweet and realistic ;)

Just asking since I've noticed some of my chapters aren't being read completely so I just need to know if it's all cool or if I'm boring you guys...
