Summary
Eddie’s shaking, his whole body feels like it's boiling from the inside out, nerve endings are blazing, he keeps trying to suck in air but instead of relief it only burns his lungs more. Every breath he takes in, the more he finds he needs.
The blurriness in his eyes is getting worrisome, and he’s infinitely glad this is a straight road, no out of the blue curves, because he’s pretty sure one good swerve would take him and his truck over the edge. All his useless belongings scattering across the expansive plane of the desert that leads him into Arizona, left to either be buried in the sand forever, or be scavenged apart by drivers who will doubtless pass by.
He can see it now; his whole entire meaningless life flashing before his very blurry eyes and for a moment he’s afraid it’s already happened, that the truck has already flipped and he didn’t notice. But then, through the heavy haze, he hears his name. the softest voice that’s dripping in worry.
“Eddie?”

Eddie finds himself struggling on his drive out to Texas, second-guessing himself and panicking about his choices, and so he does the only thing he knows how to: he calls Buck

Summary
But it wasn’t a monster that came out of the trees. It was a person. A boy.
Mike froze.
Then he was spotted, and the boy stopped in his tracks; with skillful movements, he quickly slung the rifle off his shoulder and pointed it at Mike’s chest. Mike raised his hands while trying to keep most of his weight on his left leg.
“Whoa. Hey,” Mike said, his eyes wide as he stared at the tip of the rifle. “Just hold on. I’m not—I’m not going to hurt you.”
Or: A crawl gone wrong left Mike stranded in the Upside Down. Hurt and alone, Mike stumbles upon someone everyone told him was dead.
Will Byers was never found Au

Summary
It turns out, Will Byers is a bit more than he appeared to be.
Everyone has some opinions on that, especially Will himself.
<><><>
The first 40-ish chapters were written between Volume 1 and Volume 2, so this is NOT Volume 2 compliant. Oh well!

Summary
Panic begins to run through his veins, speeding up his pulse and his breathing. “I can’t– why don’t I remember it? I don’t remember any of it.”
Mike blanches. “Any of what, Will?”
Jonathan’s hand is on his knee. Both of them are too close. He can’t breathe.
“The Upside Down. I… I can’t remember any of the Upside Down.”

Summary
The first time Steve knocks on their bedroom door in the middle of the night, he’s got several blankets and pillows in his arms and a sheepish expression on his face.
“Steve?” Jonathan scrubs a palm across his face, yawning. “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing, nothing,” Steve says. “It’s just…well, Vickie’s over and…I was kinda wondering if I could just crash on you guys’ floor for the night?”
Or: five times Steve has an excuse for spending the night in Jonathan and Nancy’s bedroom, and one time he doesn’t.

Summary
Erica raises her eyebrows behind her sunglasses. “You're hanging out with Nancy and Jonathan now? Didn’t Nancy dump you and stomp all over your heart last year?”
“Whoa, that is not what happened.”
Erica turns to Robin, as if seeking confirmation, and Robin says, “Well…”
“Robin!”
“What I can’t understand,” Dustin starts. “Is why? You don’t even like Jonathan.”
“I like Jonathan just fine!” Steve shouts, loudly enough that the couple in the car next to them shoots them a look that makes the back of Steve’s neck heat.
