You're Still the One (I Run To)

Summary:

Lesbyler at sleepaway camp, set 4 years after the rain fight (except they didn't make up this time). What could happen?

Chapter 1: Prelude

Notes:

I wanted to do a Fear Street 1978 type thing but literally only pull the camp aspect and nothing else

An AU I think, I just wanted to write a lesbian summer camp fic so its more coming-of-age and not really supernatural (though I might bring it in later? not sure yet)

(See the end of the chapter for more notes.)

Chapter Text

Michelle "Mitch" Wheeler and Willow Byers are best friends. Or, were. They hadn't really talked ever since the infamous fight in the rain - a whopping four years of avoiding eye contact in the hallways and short, tense conversations at parties.

And really, nothing could break the giddy feeling she felt when her beat up car drove into the dirt lot of Flat Rock. Nothing except..

Notes:

if you couldn't tell I don't have a great plan for this yet but hopefully it turns into something!!

Thanks for reading and stay tuned hopefully for more updates !!!
