    Summary

    After high school, Mike and Will used to trade letters like it was a game. Then life happened, the letters were forgotten, and Mike convinced himself he was fine — until he had to face what he couldn’t control: time, distance, and a Will who had moved on without him.

    How do you move on when your heart is left behind while everything else keeps going?

    Or

    January 1993
    I thought it’d be nice to make this a tradition, if you’re okay with it.
    Actually, I already chose for you.
    Every New Year’s Day, you’ll receive a letter from me, Mike Wheeler, until your death! Whether a few words or a drawing.
    You’ll always get something. Promise.

    Summary

    After the truth of the painting comes out, everything seems to fall apart. Mike and El have broken up and Will stops speaking. Mike is left trying to understand why his 'best friend' would lie to him. He is left confused about his feelings.

    On the other hand, Will knows his feelings, and draws them.

    When a sketchbook is left behind and discovered, and destroys things even further. Miked is forced to make a choice, a choice that could lead to the truth and blurred lines.

    Some things were never lies. They were just never meant to be said out loud.

    Summary

    Mike plops onto the couch with the little amount of grace he possesses, which is none. His head falls against the armrest, lolling to the side as he stares out the window.

    Will knows Mike is watching, waiting until Carlton is in his car, out of the driveway and down the street, before letting the hurt show. Before the pout settles in, before the look in his eyes gives him away. Mike has always been careful about these things.

    or: Will Byers has a boyfriend. Mike Wheeler has never been good at letting go.

    Summary

    He checks no one is looking over his shoulder. But they never are. Nobody ever comes down here.

    It’s like the rest of the world doesn’t even exist when he’s here.

    Mike focuses back on the page, trying to ignore the creeping anxiety, the hairs standing on the back of his neck.

    Dear Will.

     

     or,

    Mike is trapped in a nightmare disguised as a dream.

    Will goes in after him.

    Summary

    Wake up, Mike Wheeler

    The walls of the room are too tall, and Will looks around wondering if he’s out of his mind. Mike tracks his gaze, “Oh yeah, I see it too.” Will's shoulders get tight, and the room starts to feel unsafe. “Can I sleep in your bed tonight?”

    Alternatively: CONFORMITY GATE! The party won and the upside-down was detonated. Though still, Mike can't seem to trust the world around him. Nothing seems real, and everyone is acting off. Thankfully, Will notices it too.

     

    Title is from Hero's by David Bowie
