Mike's Diary:
Dear Diary, my life is nothing more then a circle of confusion, strangers, unbelievable experiences, and love. There's Eleven, I met her in the rain in an attempt to find Will, she was my first girlfriend. But there's Will, Will Byers, a lovable, creative, beautiful inside and out, and sweetest boy I've ever met. I don't know what do. The truth is that I am bisexual. And there's a part that I should stay with El, because I thinks it's I what, I think I want. But there's another part of me that wants to be with Will. A part that wants to cuddle him in my arms, to kiss him on top of his head. To hug his soft little self. But, I just don't know!

Will's Diary:
Dear Diary, my name is William Byers, and I am gay. The rainbow ship that I drew when I was little gave me a sign in never knew. Born with a supportive mother and brother and my asshole homophobic father. Deep down I knew I was different, the way I dress, or the way I act. My father would call me a fag because I told my mom in 2 grade that I hold a cute boys hand, or the time I drew a picture of a castle with two kings, and he ripped it apart until I go down to my knees to say "I'm sorry dad, I'll be good I promise". But all it left was him out of the door with his stuff and saying "you're a disgrace to me"! I dealt with homophobic slurs all my life and I never understand why. Why would my father call me a fag. Why would Troy pinned me down wishing death for me. Why would everyone at school hates me. That's not the worst of it, at school I got a Polaroid picture  of me and Mike kissing in Lake Michigan, I had enough of this. I'm going to meet Troy alone face to face, and tell him to leave me ALONE!
