Summary
Jonathan,
Checking to see if I got the right address for you guys. Just in case, you know?
And I thought you'd want to know that even though the kids miss Will and El a lot they're getting by OK so far. Everybody is a little quieter but Mike isn't showing any signs of deppression which I know was like a legitimate concern. But you probably already hear about him from Nancy so I'm sure you already knew.
Anyways you don't have to write back if you just put a big check mark over this paper and do the "return to sender" thing or whatever that works and I'll know you got it.
Thanks,

Summary
“Friends don’t lie?” It’s a callback, an ancient one, a pinky-promise made between two children at the dead of night, one passed on to their other friends, one that hasn’t been followed for a long time.
“Yeah. Yeah, friends don’t lie. I promise I won’t,” Mike vows, holding onto Will impossibly tighter, like he can speak it into being.
“Okay,” Will whispers, sounding suspiciously choked up. Sad with a resigned longing that Mike doesn’t know how to soothe. “I promise, too.”
~
After the Byers' move into the Wheeler house and Will starts sleeping in the basement, Mike can't stop himself from hovering at the top of the stairs every time he has a nightmare. With a few bumps along the way, this somehow culminates in a whole lot of cuddling and a hell of a lot more personal introspection.

Just not for Mike.

Summary
There were very few things in Harry Potter's life that he was certain of. There was one absolute certainty though; he'd felt it in his bones for as long as he could remember. He, Harry Potter, was dead. The living people around him might not believe, but the dead sure did. Oh well, it doesn't impact his life much. Besides, it's nice to get help with his schoolwork from his parents.
