Summary
For their senior year spring break, the Party sets sail on a 7-day cruise to celebrate the next chapter of their lives. Not much has changed since their last reunion, as long as you don’t count Mike and Will breaking up two years ago, which fractured the friend group permanently and made it so neither of them could stand to be within ten feet of each other.
It’ll be a trip they never forget - that much Will is sure of.

Summary
Will didn't need to ask Robin how she knew Vickie wanted to kiss. He needed to find out how Robin knew that Vickie wanted to date.
If the last eighteen months at the Wheelers had shown Will anything, it was that there was a great difference between the two. A dangerous chasm that Will wasn't sure Mike would ever want to cross.
He needed an expert's advice. And maybe, just maybe, he'd eventually talk to Mike.
***
In other words: this is mike what the fuck did you do gate.

Summary
Will looks down at the sheet, fingers worrying the edge. “I thought we were being careful. Taking our time.”
Mike swallows. “I thought I was too.” He lets out a small, sad breath. “I was wrong.”
Will looks back up. “So what are you saying?”
Mike’s chest tightens. This is it. The place where he either steps back—or finally names the truth.
“I’m saying I need something to change,” he says. “Or I’m going to break.”
The words hang there, bare and undeniable.
Will’s eyes flicker. “I don’t know if I can give you what you’re asking for. Not yet.”
Mike nods. He’d known this answer was possible. Knowing doesn’t make it hurt less. It reminds him of the same words he said in that coffee shop three years ago.OR: A post-canon, slow-burn Byler story about growing up unevenly, loving at the wrong time, and finding your way back to each other once you’ve learned how to stay.

Summary
Will raises his eyebrows. “Is that why you came in here?” he repeats, looking back down at the blue flannel. “To ask me about the weather in Lenora?”
“Kind of,” Mike says, and then, “well no, not about the weather specifically. I just– I wanted to talk to you.”
“Oh.” And Will looks a lot more surprised at this, actually, than the idea that Mike might have just wanted to come to his room to make small talk about unseasonably frigid California winters. “Okay. What about?”
“Anything.” The response is embarrassingly immediate. “Everything. I don’t know. I missed you.”
Hawkins, 1986. The world is ending, there are too many people in Mike's house, and to top it all off, he and Will have some things to talk through.

With this out of the way, they can move forward to have what they've denied themselves for years in their caution.

“Adam.” He can’t believe they didn’t realize this sooner. “We never had the talk with Keith.”
“Huh? Wait, what talk--oh. Ah shit. What the fuck Takashi? It didn’t even occur to me. To us, two grown ass adults.”
“Alright, it’s alright. We got this. We’ll just, you know, wing it or something. Can’t be too stiff, right?” And without thinking he finger guns, then cringes at the side eye Adam gives him.

Summary
He didn’t know how long it lasted. How long he sobbed. But as he slowly came back to himself, he became aware of a warm press of bodies around him, of… of a hand gently stroking the top of his head, the same way Pop did when he had a nightmare. For a wild moment, he found himself hoping that that’s all this was. That he was waking up from a nightmare and when he opened his eyes none of it would be real and-
And that hope vanished the moment he caught sight of wavy brown hair curled up in front of him, snuggled to his chest like his red hippo stuffie. A blush touched his cheeks. He couldn’t remember when that had happened, either.
He didn’t let go, though.When Keith learned his Pop gave his life to save a little girl, he didn’t know what to think. He certainly never expected the girl’s family to become his own…
