Summary
“I’m sorry,” Steve said. “I tried to make her wait until you woke up, I really did.” He tossed something in Mike’s direction, which Mike caught without thinking. “Happy birthday, by the way.”
Mike blinked. He’d completely forgotten, between Holly going missing, frantically searching for a way to get her back, and being possessed by Vecna himself. “Uh, thanks,” he said awkwardly, running a hand through his hair and looking down at what Steve had tossed at him. It was a Kit Kat bar. His favorite. He wondered how Steve knew that.
“Oh, right!” Robin darted forward and hugged him before he could react. He met Will’s eyes over her shoulder, but Will still had a hand covering his mouth and his expression was unreadable, aside from the red on his cheeks. “Happy birthday! There’s a surprise waiting for you in the kitchen. Anyway—mind reading. Totally a thing now, right?”
--
Through "the power of best friendship," as Robin puts it, Mike and Will develop a telepathic connection when Vecna tries to take Mike. Neither of them are really upset by it, especially when it gives them the opportunity to finally destroy Vecna once and for all.

Summary
Mike breathes out sharply, sinking to his knees in front of Will without conscious thought. Every bone in his body is turning to jelly, because Will is here, but he's also- not. His form is made up of the same dusty gold that fills the air around him, flaking off him and dancing around. Mike wants to reach out and catch the light in his palm. Will looks not entirely solid, like this is some poor imitation of him rendered in light particles, like his physical form is somewhere else, and for a horrible moment Mike thinks that Will is a ghost after all. That this is an illusion, brought about by Mike's hopeless yearning. If it weren't for the pebbles digging sharply into his legs as he knees on the ground and the crisp chill of the spring air on his face, Mike would be sure he was dreaming, but he doesn't think he could dream up something so simultaneously as magical and horrifying as the specter of his maybe-dead friend hovering before him.
"Will," he whispers, reaching out until his fingers are centimeters from Will's arm, and Will's eyes fly open.
on march 29th, 1986, will byers vanishes for a second time. 366 days later, he reappears.

Summary
And if Will let his guard down, even for a second, he knew exactly what would happen.
He’d lose Mike.
And Will would be damned if he let anything happen to Mike just because he was foolish enough to believe he could have this freely. Because of course he couldn’t. Of course they couldn’t.

Summary
It's been three days since Will left abruptly one night, venturing into the Upside-Down to end this and kill Vecna. He knew he had to do it. He thought he wouldn't live long enough to have to explain himself.
He remembers that night so clearly— specifically, Mike waking up to the sound of him prowling around in the late hours, searching for Nancy's guns. He remembers Mikes bleary eyes and ruffled hair, and the flush high on his cheeks. Will remembers how kissable he had looked— how he had to force Mike to stay behind, using his newfound powers to lock him in his room. It was cruel, but he had no choice. Will remembers sliding against the door, where he could hear Mike sobbing on the other side, and whispering a confession:
“I love you so much, and I can't let you get hurt”
