Now lives his life free from the chaos of Vecna, the death of Chrissy, Fred and Patrick. But not everything is all sunshine and rainbows for Munson, that is where Steve comes in as Eddie's ''knight in shining armour''.

Summary
For a long while, which Will felt too embarrassed to admit, part of the reason he left this secret unsaid was so he could cling on to the smallest scrap of possibility. A little imaginary corner of his mind and heart where he could pretend Mike might maybe, just maybe, one day feel something more.
It was foolish, he knew this. But it had been his.
And now? Now it was gone.
They’ve survived the near end of the world. Now Will just has to survive telling Mike the truth. It seems a lot easier than it is.

Summary
Mike Wheeler can't stop staring at his best friend. Not only that, he can't stop finding opportunities to show physical affection. They have always been very close, but ever since Mike and El broke up, his friendship with Will blossomed.
Mike can finally admit to himself that he loves Will Byers, but it's difficult to hide his love when his best friend is so perfect and acts almost as if he likes him back. But no, they're just friends.
They're friends when Will comforts Mike about his breakup; they're friends when they sleep over after parties, cuddling; they're friends when the Party finds out that the head cheerleader has a crush on Will; and they're definitely friends when they get wasted and they make out. And no matter how much Mike wants to be more than friends, it will never happen. All he has is the memory of that night, of that kiss, which is more than Will can say.or Mike and Will are both messes with a crush on their best friend, but they both deny themselves happiness, even though they do everything to get close without it being weird.

Summary
It’s nothing, he tells himself.
He didn’t hear anything weird. He’s just overtired. It’s past late and nearing early morning now. The clock above the soundboard reads 3:47 am. He would have been asleep hours ago on a night when he didn’t have a late shift.
And it’s raining outside, he reminds himself; the storm is why the signals are being weird in a totally normal way. If he heard anything, it was just a blip. An anomaly. That’s what Dustin would call it: an anomaly.
He has fully brushed it off as nothing— just an exhaustion induced auditory hallucination— and he’s preparing to cue up the next track, when it happens again, unmistakable this time:Static crackle and pitchy interference, like a walkie on a bad channel, and then--
“Wheeler? Dustin? Anyone, come in? Code Red. Please. This is Code fucking Red!”
Steve knows that voice. He'd remember it anywhere.

Summary
Robin has a secret, she has only ever told it to Steve. So when she believes he told her secret to everyone, everything goes wrong.
This is my first fic, so bear with me. Also this takes place after Season 4. The Byers never moved to California,Vecna was never defeated and Eleven has her powers.

Summary
“I thought Mike the Knight never gets scared?” He suddenly chuckles weakly. It's small for someone who usually had a lot to say when it came to Mike, he wishes the sarcastic comments would come through again. It would wash away the pain and ever-creeping reality that they probably won't make it out of this.
Mike spares another glance at him, the slight grin across Will’s face easing the darkness around them both. “I thought Will the Wise sees all?” He counters his doomed thoughts with that missing sarcasm he was just thinking of, though it can’t help but come out weak, a quiet, “I’m terrified.” following behind.
They’re best friends again…yet now Mike can’t hide the craving for more. The unrealistic static called hope. He’s a fool, truly. A fool who can’t admit he’s in love with his childhood best friend in the apocalypse.
Mike Wheeler is a lovestruck idiot who waited too long to say so.
Chapter 1 is a stand alone
fluff and comfort in other chapters 🫶OR
Mike and Will finally share their hearts but Vecna’s a bitch and ruins everything like always.

Summary
“Don’t,” Will croaks as he realizes too late what this is about to be. “Mike, I’m fine. Go heal Lucas or El—”
It’s too late. Mike grabs Will’s wrist and heat floods Will’s body. In the absence of his own magic, the sensation of someone else’s across his skin is a shock, but the fact that it’s Mike doesn’t exactly help matters. Everyone’s magic feels different. Jonathan’s Bless is a splash of water on the back of the neck. Robin’s Fly has the zing of biting into a lemon. Dustin’s Bardics are the twinge of laughing so hard your stomach hurts.
But Mike’s Lay On Hands just feels warm. Like the sun just before it sets, casting the world in golden light; like the glow of torchlight, or a campfire, heat without danger.

As a deserter at risk of being found and killed by the KGB, and as a father and almost-divorced husband whose number one priority is safely getting his family into the United States, Dmitri Antonov isn't exactly in a great position to be meeting someone new.
Even so, he and the Byers' neighbor and good friend, an aspiring journalist who knows nothing about the Upside Down yet, are drawn to each other from day one.

Summary
Another Thanksgiving without his parents.
What’s new? Big whoop.
Steve had been on a record of four years where his big feast was a measly frozen TV dinner and maybe a slice of pie—if he put in the effort to make his nana’s apple pie that year. And dessert was only a last year thing anyway. This record that he has, though, he had been set on not breaking. Prove some point. Take a photo for the scrapbook and gift it straight to his dad’s stupid office, maybe send a hard boiled egg, tell him to suck it.
Like he’d waste his precious minimum wage salary on something like that.

Joyce returns with Hopper, Steve’s heart shatters a little, and Robin decides she’s done watching him believe he’s unlovable.
They marry—not as a cover, not out of fear, but because they’re each other’s person.
And only after that choice comes the twist that binds their future even tighter.

Summary
The battle is won. Vecna is dead. But in his dying mind, Eleven discovered a terrible truth: the Upside Down is not the creation of a monster, but a primordial twin to their world—one that requires a ruler to contain it. Without one, it will corrupt another soul and the cycle will begin again.
Eleven tries to warn the others as they gather in the ruined Wheeler House, desperate for solutions. Arguments erupt as each person offers themselves to take Vecna’s place. Until one person stepped forward, the one who had been marked from the very beginning.
