today, school was absolutely terrible. everyone ignored me, and i got a lot of dirty looks from Max. I have to admit, it hurt me to see that my friends didn't care about me, but the fact that Will, the one person I care the most about didn't respond to any of my attempts to contact him (I tried to reach him all night, slipped a note in his locker, tried to get him to talk to me during science and I even drove past his house to put a letter in his mailbox. I skipped fourth period to do that, so he probably won't have read it) is just horrible. I was horrible. I could see why Will didn't want to see me, he hates me. What I did is unforgivable. 

I went home that night at 8 p.m., after searching through that forrest for Will's sobs. Mind you, my sobs were probably so loud that I wouldn't have heard his. Not in a million years.

As I biked home, I realised that I couldn't possibly go home. not like this, not after today.I needed my mom. So I turned my bike around, and went straight to the video store.

It crushed me to see Mike that morning. He looked so miserable, and for a minute I felt guilty. Then Max said:' will! Remember what I told you over the walkie talkie last night? Mike is a no no from now on. She saw that I was still looking at him, and put her hand on my cheek and turned my head. 'Here Iam! NO MORE TALKING TO MIKE!' 'dump his ass!, I heard El say, and I smiled. Just a little. I knew that I could do it? With their support.

It... became harder not to talk to him, though, after the notes, and all the hand-touching during science. 

I got home to my mom giving me a letter, a letter that I recognised, because it had Mike's handwriting on the back. 

'I think he dropped it off this morning when we were already gone.', I felt absolutely miserable. 'Just.. tell me what happened, Will.'

And I did, I told her what he said.

'And you really thought that thát was the way to not-tell Byers?', Steve was clearly mad at me.

'I panicked, okay?!' Even though that didn't fix anything.

'You need to apologise. PROPERLY apologise. I don't want my dips hits fighting, do you hear me?'

'yea, It's just that... I just-' I felt tears stream down my face, and I felt horrible, I knew that I had been terrible to Will. And I felt so, so guilty.

'Ahh, it'll be okay between you two, haven't you seen the way he looks at you?'
