Always and Forever 2- Will Byers x FEM Reader (Season 3)

3 Months Later

In the three months that had passed since the incident, loads had happened. We had Billy's funeral which everyone attended. We also had Hopper’s which sent us all into sadness once more. El was living with us now as Joyce broke the news to us that we would be moving. Not just houses. States. From Indiana all the way to California. A change I was dreading. Everyone I loved was leaving. Everyone who had brought me back on my feet after escaping the lab all that time ago.

Today was the day. From morning till evening, everyone was over, helping to pack up the house. I was dressed in the only outfit I had left out. A simple tank top with shorts and of course, some of the jewelry Joyce had gifted me many months ago. 

Will and I’s bedroom was finally all packed as the last thing was taken from the closet. Will’s DnD things. 

“Are you keeping it?” I asked him as I stood behind him.

“No.” he shook his head, “It'll get donated. I wont find another party.”

I nodded as I followed him out to the kitchen where he set the books inside a cardboard box. Mike was there across from us as he set them inside.

“Woah, dude.” he said before we could walk off, “That's the donation box.”

“I know.” Will nodded, “We’ll just use yours when we come back. I mean, if we still wanna play.”

“Yeah, but what if you want to join another party?” he asked.

“Not possible.” we said with a smile.

On our way back to our bedroom to give it one last look, we passed Jonathan’s bedroom where he and Nancy were inside. They were embraced together, crying. One of the lovers was leaving. That had to hurt.

As everyone finished packing inside and everything was finally loaded into the moving van outside, we admitted that it was finally time to say our goodbyes.

I hugged Lucas and Dustin together, with tears streaming out of my eyes. They hugged back as I heard them sniffle.

“Thanks for saving our asses a couple times.” Dustin chuckled.

“Don't mention it.” I giggled in between a sniffle.

“We’re gonna miss you.” Lucas said with a tear down his cheek.

“I'll miss you guys too.” I said as I looked over to Max.

She started sobbing even more as we hugged each other tighter than ever before. My breaths were intense as I cried.

“I've never cried this much.” I giggled.

“Me neither.” she said as we pulled away, “Thank you for being my best friend.”

“Thank you.” I sniffled, “Thank you for getting me out of the house and teaching me how to be rebellious.”

“Of course.” she said as I finally moved onto Mike.

I stepped on my toes before I hugged him, he basically picked me up to hug me. My eyes dripped with more tears as it hit me that I would be leaving my best friend.

“Thank you for being my best friend.” I said, “For always listening and being there for me even though sometimes you're a dick.”

“I'm gonna miss you.” he cried, “Thanks for always being there. You and Will make my life better.”

“You're gonna kill me.” I said as I cried more before finally splitting away.

We gave our final waves as we got into our transportation. I was in the back seat of the car while Will and Jonathan were in the front. El was in the moving van with Joyce as we finally pulled away from our home.

I was cuddled in the backseat with a blanket and my stuffed bear, laying down as I sobbed and cried into the bear. I could see Will crying out of the side window as we watched our friends get smaller and smaller until… they were gone. It was official. We didn't live in Hawkins anymore. The Byers were gone.  

Will reached back and held my hand through the seat as we drove. At least him and I would always be together. Together forever. Always and forever.
