Fics like distance (makes the heart grow fonder)

“Will it get better?” Will asked her, voice scratchy, emotions leaking out. The nightmares. The monsters. The deaths. Mike. “I don’t know,” she whispered back, her own voice breaking. “It has to,” he said, more to himself than her. “This – this can’t just be it.” The Byers have moved to California; Hopper is gone, Billy flayed, Bob dead, and Will is now 2,274 miles away from everything and everyone he has ever known. And he’s Fine. Nightmares stalk his sleep, his chest aches with the life he left behind, the childhood that had never really felt like his. The boy back home with the freckles and the words left out in the rain. Will is Fine. And he’ll keep telling himself that until the dreams drag him under. or: Will gets to Cali and accidentally hot girl summers; cue meeting new cute boys and sneaking out to parties and spray painting the back ends of Lenora to feel some semblance of control.
