Summary
Mike moves in his bed, and Will's eyes stay firmly on the ceiling. "I feel like we barely know each other anymore."
And Will can't argue with that, so he replies, "What do you want to know?"
There’s a long lapse of silence, and then –
“Can you come up here?”
In the wreckage, Mike and Will spend a series of nights together.

Summary
There’s something wrong with Will.
It started three weeks ago, almost four. Will had woken from some sort of nightmare and, instead of seeking comfort in Mike the way he usually would, he’d rolled out a sleeping bag from the closet and chosen to sleep on the floor.
No one believes Mike, except for Joyce. But even she doesn’t understand the full extent to which something is wrong with Will.
Mike understands, though. Mike has been paying attention.

Summary
"Every time you told her you loved her, he heard it." Vecna's voice is soft now. "Every time you kissed her, he imagined it was him instead. And it destroyed him. Slowly. Piece by piece. Until there was barely anything left for me to work with."
"Stop."
"He wrote you letters, you know. Dozens of them. Pages and pages about how he felt. About how much he loved you. About how he wished things were different." Vecna pauses. "He burned every single one."
Mike's eyes are stinging. He blinks hard. "Why are you telling me this?"
"Because you asked where he is." Will's smile fades. His expression goes blank again. "He's right here, Michael. He's been here the whole time. Screaming. Begging me to let him talk to you. Begging me to let him apologize for not being what you wanted."
"He doesn't need to apologize for anything."
"Doesn't he?" Vecna's head tilts. "You rejected him. Maybe not with words, but you rejected him all the same. You let him think that he was a mistake. That loving you was a mistake."
"That's not—" Mike's voice breaks completely. "That's not true."
"Isn't it?"
The Duffer Brothers suck! My own version of the finale lolz

Summary
His brain finally catches up with Mike’s words, and Mike is saying things like, “C’mon, Will—you can do it,” and “I’m so proud of you,” and “Don’t rush, it’s okay.” In the softest tone imaginable, and if Will maybe pretends to still be a little more out of it than he actually is just to keep hearing Mike talk to him like that—well, that’s his business.

After Season 5 Vol.1, Mike refuses to leave Wills side.

Summary
“Dude,” Dustin says, sounding kind of horrified but also kind of delirious with elation. “Oh my God, you like him. You like Will. Will. As in, our Will. Our best friend Will.”
“I do not–” Mike tries, even though he’d kind of just admitted to accidentally kissing Will Byers, a little, so maybe that’s an entirely fruitless road to go down.
Listen. No one should ever let Mike make decisions right after he wakes up from a nap, okay? Especially not decisions where Will is concerned. This is so not his fault.
