Summary
Hopper's mind buzzed with a muffling noise as he peeled back wet plastic, the water that had coagulated into thick drops across the stiff sheet now pooling in the impression Hopper's hands had left. The crackle of the plastic felt obscenely loud, echoing across the silent Sattler Quarry as if warning the sheriff against continuing to fold back the concealing material. God, if Hopper had known it was Will Byers's mangled corpse that was wrapped like a goddamn package on the shore, he might've listened to it.
Or:
Special Agent Dale Cooper drives into the sleepy town of Hawkins, Indiana to look into the murder of 17-year-old Will Byers after it shows striking resemblance to the murder of Teresa Banks. However, as Dale, Sheriff Jim Hopper, and Deputy Harry Truman discover more and more about the truth, they and the Will's friends, who are just as committed to solving the case, learn that there was much more to Will Byers—and this town—than meets the eye.

Summary
Slowly, he rolls onto his side, curling inward without meaning to. His palms settle against his lower stomach, fingers spread wide, hands bigger than they used to be. Or maybe all of him is bigger, and he's aging, and his body is just more his now than he can remember.
He feels so empty.
Just one heartbeat, only his voice in his head, one lonely body curled up in bed.
---
“Will, come on.” The doorknob rattles. “You're freaking me out.” Mike sounds closer now, worried. “I'm sick of you pushing me away. I'm not joking around.”
Will imagines him standing on the other side of the door, one hand gripping the frame, eyebrows drawn together. Waiting, the way he always is.
“At least let me know you're alive in there.” Mike's voice cracks, and the sound makes Will's throat tighten immediately. “Will, I'm serious, and I mean it. I'll break this door down.”
or, my take on Will's trauma from Henry's assault and the slugs, post canon. Read tags!!
