Warmth and Comfort (The Quarry) by ForrestToffee (FrozenSpellMaster)

Summary
It was supposed to be a relaxing day, everyone just hanging out, a break from all the recent chaos. But somehow they got onto the topic of some of the near death experiences The Party had gone through. And Mike should have known better than to trust Dustin to keep his mouth shut about things forever, especially when things become a competition. Because apparently we are now sharing harrowing experiences like jumping off the quarry with the class.
Mike knew he shouldn’t have gotten out of bed this morning.

Summary
"Oh." Lucas slumped in his chair.
"Wait, what did you think happened? Did you think Mike wanted to jump?"
"Well... I mean, don't say you've never thought it."
"Thought what?"
"That Mike wants to kill himself."
[this (specifically this extract) is just a silly little idea that came to me in class so i turned it into a fic. prolly couldve executed it better but nah]

Summary
“Oh, what happened?” Nancy asks.
Dustin winces. “Uhhh…Mike sort of…”
Nancy straightens. “Mike?” she asks, looking over at him. Mike’s stomach sinks lower.
“He…jumped off a cliff when we were twelve.”
Or
They talk about Mike literally jumping off a cliff.

Summary
Mike Wheeler is a coward, he always has been. No matter what anyone says, no matter what anyone does, Mike Wheeler has and always will be a coward. He hides behind Eleven, a girl he doesn't even love, because he's to scared to admit his feeling for his best friend. He writes letters to said best friend but never sends them because he's to scared to see their reaction. He avoided Will because he was scared that he would figure it out somehow. He got possessed by Vecna because he was scared of his feeling.
Every brave act he does is a product of adrenaline, he's a coward. It's worse when El breaks up with him, because now he can't hide. It's worse when Dustin spills that he jumped off of the quarry, because now the Party won't leave him alone. And it's worse when Will confronts him at said Quarry because he was stupid and scared enough to run. Now what does he say? Does he tell the truth? Or does he lie?

Summary
It was terrifying. Mike had never acted like this before, and no amount of doting was fixing him. He felt powerless to do anything but sit and rub his back and wait.
And then, Mike’s voice came, answering his questions and creating a thousand more ones simultaneously, and having Will wish he never asked in the first place.
“I tried to kill myself.”

Summary
“Wait, so—” Lucas’s voice was choked, disbelieving. “You jumped off a cliff? On purpose?”
Mike didn’t reply, too busy shoving his panic down as hard as he could, but the non-answer was as bad as an answer. “It’s not a big deal,” he finally managed.
“Uh, I’m pretty sure it is.” Now even Max was worried, why was everyone so worried? It. Didn’t. Matter. And he did not want to talk about it. “Like, the definition of a big deal.”

Summary
The tall grey-white cliffs of Sattler Quarry loom all around him, stark again the infinite blackness. Mike can see the place between cliffs where the lake shore would be; here, the water remains shallow enough his feet don’t get wet. His head spins. If he’s back at the quarry, why can’t he see anything else? And how is he unhurt? There was no miracle, no El to stop his fall.
OR
What if El didn’t arrive at the quarry in time? What would happen if, like Will, Mike forged a connection to the Upside Down in 1983?
A rewrite of the first season of Stranger Things, from the infamous quarry scene to “one month later”, exploring the Upside Down, connections, and s1 Byler.Series

Summary
A cold hand lands on Will’s shoulder and he gasps, startled. “Will?” Mike is asking, kneeling down in front of him, eyebrows furrowed, grip vice-like. “What’s wrong?”
“I saw him,” Will whispers. He’s keeping completely still, hands still locked around his knees, like the demogorgon hunts by movement, not scent. He’s not sure if he’ll ever be able to move again. “I saw him, Mike.”OR
In the November of 1983, everything changed. What happens next?

Now that I see your brother as my brother (is it enough?) by coreyfogelmanic

Summary
"It's okay Mike, hey, it's okay."
"No it's not!" Which—okay—fair enough, it didn't feel very okay to Jonathan either, but he was so out of his depth right now. He'd comforted Will countless times, he'd comforted Nancy, El. Hell, he'd even comforted Mike a bunch of times when he was younger.
A lot younger.
He'd comforted Mike over a broken crayon, or a scraped knee, or Will being sick and not being able to go to school for a week—that one had required a lot of comforting—but that had been a long time ago and those were all just silly, trivial things kids cried over. Now Mike was crying on a dirty bathroom floor, blood tainting his arms, and Jonathan couldn't just give him a new yellow crayon to make him feel better anymore.

Summary
You could say Mike isn’t the type to keep secrets, but clearly, that would be a lie. He, Dustin, and El kept what happened at the quarry a secret. Of course, El doesn’t even really remember it since life was more hectic at that time. Dustin? Well, his brain blocked it out. Mike? He remembers it. He thinks of it from time to time. He also had dreams about it… well, Nightmares.
It’s no different when he and Lucas share another secret. Well, and Steve too. They would all keep it. It’s not like Mike would want anyone else to know and Lucas and Steve promised to not tell. Though If Mike and Lucas could they would go back in time and stop what happened or just not go to the party where it started.
