jonathan byers  ,  parties aren’t really my thing...

            ‘ really?  i  couldn’t  tell, ’   teasing  lilt  of  her  lips  is  given  as  she  leans  against  the  wall  beside  jonathan.  free  arm  wraps  around  her  torso,  the  other  held  in  front  of  her,  a  half  filled  cup  in  her  hands.  glancing  out  across  the  crowd,  she  sees  familiar  faces,  people  she  could  be  talking  to,  or  socializing  with.  but  carter  finds  she’d  rather  be  here,  with  the  quiet  boy,  who  obviously  claimed  the  term  of  wallflower.   ‘ are  you  enjoying  yourself  at  all? ’   she  questions,  baby  blues  lifting  to  meet  his.   ‘ are  you  having,  like,  any  fun? ’    @nctnine.

             every  summer  he  comes  to  this  camp,  and  every  summer  he  fears  going  home.  there’s  something  safe  about  this  place,  about  the  quarry  and  chris  hackett,  who  had  been  watching  over  ryan  for  many,  many  years.  there  was  pressure  and  responsibility  and  anxiety  that  came  with  going  back  to  his  grandmother,  to  his  sister.  was  it  so  bad  that  they’d  rather  stay?  in  a  few  weeks,  ryan  wouldn’t  have  the  choice.  it’s  the  same  story,  year  after  year,  regardless  of  whether  they  were  a  camper  or  a  counselor.  this  is  what  he  thinks  about  as  he  stares  into  the  dying  embers  of  the  bonfire.  having  put  their  cabin  to  sleep  nearly  an  hour  ago,  ryan  had  decided  some  alone  time  was  needed.  just  a  little  bit  of  quiet.  he  liked  the  quiet,  but  they  didn’t  seem  to  get  it  much  these  days.

someone  sits  beside  them  and  ryan  is  ready  with  a  snarky  remark.  however,  when  dark  eyes  land  on  jonathan,  it’s  swallowed  back  down  into  their  stomach.  the  only  person  who  really  understood  why  silence  could  be  comforting.  maybe  ryan  was  lucky  to  meet  jonathan  this  year.  whether  the  other  seemed  like  he  wanted  to  be  there  or  not,  ryan  was  glad  he  was.   ‘ you  could  get  in  trouble  for  being  out  here  after  lights  out, ’   dry  humor  fills  the  space  between  them,  ryan  smirking  a  bit  at  jonathan  before  he’s  turning  back  to  the  campfire.   ‘ i’m  not  bailing  you  out  if  mr.  h  catches  us, ’     @nctnine​.

" dude, you look awful. " jonathan's frown sets deep on his face. he lends murray a hand, though unsure if murray should be staying down or standing. " why are you here? what happened? " / the missing and found meme?

HE’D BEEN MISSING FOR OVER A WEEK, and this was how he was greeted? Dude, you look awful? Murray scoffed despite the pain in his throat. “Nice to see you, too.” His voice was hoarse. He glanced at Jonathan’s hand and groaned, unsure of whether or not he could stand, even with the other’s help. Nevertheless, he grabbed it, holding it firmly as he attempted to stand.

IT WAS A STRUGGLE, but soon enough, Murray was on his feet. “Thanks,” he mumbled, finally letting go of Jonathan’s hand. He panted from the effort. “Fuck… we gotta get out of here. Do you have a ride?” Murray was trying to stay calm, but his captors would soon notice he was missing and come searching for him. “And some water? Mm, and I could really go for a cheeseburger.”

    dear diary,

per  my  previous  entries,  you  already  know  that  my  friendship  with  jonathan  has  been  slow.  and  i’m  okay  with  that!  i  can  go  slow.  i  mean,  it’s  kind  of  hard.  but  only  because  i  really  like  him.  whatever,  my  point  is  -  today,  we  made  progress.  we  were  just  sitting  together  on  a  bench.  he  was  making  me  laugh  (  as  usual  )  and  i  put  my  hand  over  his.  it  was  an  accident,  okay!  i  was  having  a  good  time,  and  that  kind  of  thing  just  happens  -  i  like  connecting  with  people  that  way.  when  i  looked  at  jonathan,  though,  he  wasn’t  flinching.  he  didn’t  even  pull  away,  he  just  let  it  happen,  this  time.  our  eyes  met,  and  i  could  tell  something  was  happening.  that  we  were,  like  -  sharing  a  moment,  or  something.  sometimes,  you  just  know,  y’know?  anyway,  i  think  we’re  getting  somewhere.  i’ll  report  back  when  something  else  happens.
