Y/N's POV:
I wake up the next morning. I didn't hear Jonathan come home at all. I was up pretty late, waiting for him. I guess I was just excited to hear what he had to say about Nancy.

'What if they got taken too? Just like Will and Barb. That was her name right?' My stomach rumbling interrupted my thoughts. Haven't eaten since I've been here. I guess I never noticed how hungry I was.

I get up, from the bed and feel the cold wooden floor beneath me. I walk down the hallway quietly. Hoping not to wake up Jonathan's mom. She seems on edge. I mean ,I can't really blame her. Her son just went missing.

I walk down the stairs into the kitchen."Who are you?" I hear from behind me. I turn around and see woman with brown hair and lights in her hands. "I'm Jonathan's friend,Y/N." I start to anxiously play with my hands, but I held eye contact.

"Oh, I'm Joyce. " Her voice cracked. I can tell she's in pain, that she's stressed about Will." Do you need help?," I blurted out,"With the lights or anything?" She looked at me confused but then nodded slowly.

JOYCE'S POV:
I agreed to let Y/N help me. I told him about how I'm communicating with him through the lights. He nodded like he understood. " Do you believe me about the lights? Or do you think I'm a lunatic?" He looks at me and chuckles," Both if I'm being honest."

I wrote the alphabet on the wall, while Y/N aligned the lights with each letter. 'I hope this works'

After we're finished with that. We stood back and admired our work. " So- uh, what now?" Y/N asked while sipping on a juice box. "We ask Will a question." I say while staring at the lights. Y/ N nodded and sat down on the couch.

Y/N's POV:
I watch intently as she walked closer to the wall of letters and lights. 'What if it works? If it doesn't she is sooooo a lunatic' I watched closely has I drink my box of flavored water.

"Will, are you there?" She asks, her voice trembling. Then, very unexpected from me, the light above 'Y' lights up for a while. I furrowed my eyebrows in shock and confusion. Then, the light above 'E' flashes. 'Holy shit, she's right. Will has been communicating with her through lights!'

The light above 'S' also flashes. She laughed in triumph. She looks at me with a smile. I smile back.

'She's not a lunatic after all'

TIME SKIP: brought to you by Steve's hair

I've been sitting here. While, Joyce communicates with Will. Jonathan sill isn't back.'Maybe he hit off with Nancy' Joyce starts talking to me. " I have to call Hopper!" She exclaims running over to something on the wall.

"Who?" I question. 'Hopper.. hehe You think he hops?' "Jim Hopper. He's police chief. He didn't believe me when I first told him about the lights." She says while holing something against her ear. I mouth the words 'ohhh'. After, a few minutes of standing there. I decide to go back to Jonathan's room. I lay on the bed and take a nap.

'She's not crazy after all' Was my last thought before I fell into a deep sleep.
