Life started to feel normal again until Joyce announced that they were moving. TO CALIFORNIA. Eleven and Will would be separated from the group. Eleven would be away from her boyfriend, Mike. But also- Away from her best friend Max. The first few weeks were hard. Eleven wrote Mike every day since she felt out of place and lonely. Signing it with - Love, El. Since that was the only thing getting her through this change. But Eleven noticed that she wrote to Mike- but didn't really miss him that much. The one constantly on her mind was...Max. This story is based on Stranger Things, but is not completely accurate to the show. This story happened after season 3, but some details are different. So be aware that some information in this story is made up and isn't accurate to the show now. <3 Hope you enjoy!

From enemies to...well...you'll see. Max is tough on the outside but we all know that ain't the case on the inside and so will Eleven. This is set a few weeks after the snowball. Season 3 didn't happen. °completed 6th March 2021° ⚠️tw: mention of sexual assault + some violence. nothing gruesome though, don't worry!⚠️

Max has been feeling really odd around her best friend, El. She loves her more than she's ever loved anyone or anything, ever- as a friend, of course. These feelings are crushing Max to pieces, and she doesn't know what to do about it. *(Guys, they're not actually just going to be friends. They obviously like each other, they're gonna be soft lesbians, okay? Okay.) !!MAJOR S3 SPOILERS!! ALSO: HUUUGE TW ON THIS STORY. i'm mentally ill as hell i can't just write a happy story 😌 i've included tws before all of the chapters that i think need them, but if there's any chapter that you think should have another tw PLEASE let me know. (This Fanfiction takes place after season three, but Eleven and Will still live in Hawkins. Hopper is still dead, as is Billy. Eleven lives with Will and Joyce. The Party still hangs out; they are as close as ever.) (There is also gonna be some Byler, but not whole chapters or anything like that)
