    Summary

    Will’s eyes sting with tears, and his nose prickles with heat. He feels like he’s burning, like he’s on fire. But Mom’s right—he doesn’t have to be afraid. She knows, and she loves him, and she’s not leaving. All that’s left is the words. And he shouldn’t be scared of words. After all he’s been through, if what takes him down is the English alphabet, then the world has a really fucked up sense of humor.

    He just needs to rip off the bandaid.

    Alternatively: Five times Will Byers came out, and the one time someone came out to him.

    Summary

    “Are you cutting yourself?” Nancy asked. “Is that what those scars are from?”

    “That’s not your fucking business!” Mike yelled. Nancy stepped back. She had never seen him so angry. “That’s my problem, not yours, and you don’t get to Nancy Drew this shit, okay? I’m not a mystery for you to solve. I just needed-- I needed--”

    She caught a glimpse of his face crumpling into a sob before he turned and slammed the door behind him. Nancy swore she felt the walls shake.

    Or: Mike is hurting himself and Nancy is terrified.

    Summary

    remember the sky that you were born under,
    know each of the star’s stories.
    remember the moon, know who she is.

    remember the sun’s birth at dawn, that is the
    strongest point of time. remember sundown
    and the giving away to night.

    Remember, by Joy Harjo

     

    “Hey, Will, have you ever really been interested in dating? Or, for that matter, girls at all?” His heart choked up his throat, breaking the evenness of his breaths and almost blocking the airway. He didn’t know what he could possibly look like right now, but he figured it was at the very least incriminating.

    or,

    When Dustin makes an innocent comment on Will’s lack of interest in girls, and he reacts peculiarly, it sparks speculation among the party. In order to conceal his sexuality and Max’s not-so-new crush, Will and Max hatch a plan.
