Summary
Langa has to pass summer school to continue into third year, so Reki offers to tutor him. After they almost kiss one study session, Langa (to avoid confessing) lies and says he just wants to practice with Reki so they have experience for the future. Reki agrees, and their study sessions become less about schooling and more about kissing.

Summary
Langa is always down for whatever crazy ideas Reki proposes: doing a skateboard dance for Tiktok? Sure. Teaching Sketchy how to do tricks on little fingerboards? Yes. Spontaneously playacting comedic boyfriend/girlfriend scenarios to tease their friends? Hell yeah.
This is no different. Langa clings to this thought: this is just for show. It’s just for fun. For whatever reason, Reki wants to impress these people, and Langa is happy to be his partner in crime. Always.
Even if it destroys him in the process.
Reki and Langa go to their first university party and get roped into a kissing game that gets a little out of hand.

Summary
Will needs a date to his mom's wedding. Mike volunteers.
“I have an idea,” says Mike.
Ice cubes form in Will’s stomach. “How dangerous is it? Like, should I call Dustin to talk you down, or should I call Nancy to be ready to drive us to the hospital?”
“No,” says Mike, “you can’t tell anyone or it won’t work.”
“Or what won’t work?” Will asks. It’s like picking up a rock you know a spider will be under.
Mike gets up and closes Will’s door. Hopper doesn’t make them keep it open but sometimes Will does anyway, because every now and then lying around alone with Mike on his bed just makes his chest ache too much. If the door is open he can tell himself You can’t do anything right now, someone will see.
Mike leans back against the door. His eyes are lit up with that special maniacal gleam that the Wheelers get right before they do something insane, like when Nancy says, “Then we have to go kill Vecna ourselves,” or whatever. “Take me to the wedding,” says Mike.
“Yeah,” says Will slowly, “you’ll be at the wedding. Obviously.”
“As your date."

Summary
After they save the world, Will gets a boyfriend and a haircut. Mike loses his mind.
A bunch of random words and feelings flash through Mike’s brain but they won’t settle down to form a sentence. He just can’t fathom the idea of Will…with a boyfriend. Will’s boyfriend. A boyfriend who is Will’s. It won’t make sense no matter how he squints at it. “Dudes kissing or whatever is cool,” Mike says eventually. “It’s just… Will…”
Will picks up a pillow and throws it at Mike’s face. Mike catches it. “That’s not fair,” Will says. “Dustin has Suzie, and Lucas has Max.”
“But you’re Will,” says Mike. Doesn't everyone else feel this way, too? Dustin and Lucas are looking at him with twin expressions of horrified fascination, like Mike is some kind of slow-motion train wreck. “I mean– I mean, you’ve always been–”
My Will, Mike’s brain finishes. Shit, he’s not saying that out loud.
“The baby?” asks Will, glaring at him. “Shut up, Mike.”
“No,” Mike says again, miserable, but he can’t say I don’t want there to be some other guy you like more than me out loud where god and Dustin can hear him and never let him forget it as long as he lives.

Summary
Mike opens his eyes against the water droplets hanging off his eyelashes. Will hasn't stopped walking away from him, and he’s far enough now that Mike can no longer really see the details of his jacket. The rain feels like needles against his skin, and a frustration builds in his gut. Mike can't stand this anymore.
He breaks off into a run.
or Mike and Will finally confront each other about everything. It's raining, and things get messy.

Summary
Will coughs violently when the lack of oxygen creates a ringing in his ears, and then he’s leaning forward and gagging. He fully expects to see a squirming veiny worm hit the sink like one had two years ago after his encounter with the Upside Down, but instead, he’s met with petals.
Will watches in more fascination than horror as they slowly float down to the sink.
Or the one where Mike keeps falling asleep, Will can’t stop hacking up flowers, and everyone is suddenly great at giving advice.

Summary
Will loved ordinary things, an uneventful existence was something he craved. Sadly, when Mike Wheeler walks into his life, Will’s easy going path snaps right in half. A passion he could never imagine overtaking his whole being.
It was too bad their friend groups hated each other and his sister had a huge crush on the musician. Off limits.
Fantastic.

Summary
“Mike stared into Will’s chocolate eyes, so close to his own. His gaze was pulled down, if only for a second, before flicking back up again. Will noticed.
”Okay, so you’re a natural,” Will smirked. “Lets give you a challenge,”
Mike watched in confusion as he produced three more cans from the bag by his feet, setting them up with the others in a tower now six cans large.
“You have to shoot the cans,” Will began as he made his way back over to Mike. “And I have to try and distract you,”
Mike sucked in a breath as Will snaked his arms fully around his middle.
”O-okay,” He stuttered. He could feel Will nodding.
”Starting now,” Will said.”___________
Or, Will teaches Mike how to use a gun.

Summary
Will mistakenly leaves his notebook at Mike’s house, and when Mike opens it with temptation to admire all of his drawings, he comes to find that it’s not a notebook at all. It’s a diary. A diary with all of his thoughts and feelings towards Mike.. and some other things that Mike really wants to comfort him about.

Summary
Robin is not exactly thrilled to be back as a camp counselor, but she needs the money. But the thing that bothers her most about the whole event is Nancy Wheeler - one of the other counselors who ruins everyone's day with her obsession with punctuality and order. The two can't stand each other and it's obvious to all the outside observers.
But if rivalry can turn into friendship, how thin is the line between being friends and maybe something more?Bookmarked by SPORKLES

Summary
“Movement beside him. Mike rolled suddenly towards Will, using one hand to prop himself up next to Will’s head. His face hung over Will’s before the shorter boy could even turn to look.
”Guess what,” Mike said, grinning. It took Will a few moments to reply because oh my god he’s so close and his hair is falling into his eyes and are my cheeks as red as they feel and-
“Wh-what?” Will asked, more out of instinct than actual coherent thought.
”I can see the stars,” He said it like it was a secret. Will was intrigued.
”Huh? Where?” He strained to look past Mike’s head and back up at the sky, but all he could see was murky cloud. Mike’s fingertips on his cheek caused his mind to blank.”__________
Or, Will takes Mike stargazing and blames himself when it’s cloudy, but Mike’s universe is lying right next to him.

Until they pull off at a gas station and a random guy hits on Will.

The one where Mike finally gets jealous.

Summary
Will takes in a deep breath but it does nothing to calm him. He feels like every nerve is firing at once, his body buzzing with nervous energy. “You-you know I love you,” He begins awkwardly, worrying his lower lip.
Mike sighs. “I love you too Will, you’re like the brother I never had,” Will tamps down on the urge to laugh bitterly at the second part of the sentence, at the main difference between their love for each other. There’s nothing brotherly about what Will feels for Mike.
“Now quit stalling and tell me what’s bothering you.” Mike huffs out a small laugh, bumping his shoulder with Will’s. “I can take it, I promise.” He says lightly.
Will turns to face him then, looking him dead in the eye. “No, I love you.”

Summary
With the Byers back in Hawkins, the tension was getting harder to ignore. As Will desperately tries to move past the truth, Mike must learn to accept it. It takes time, it takes space, it takes tears. But maybe, somewhere along the way, they'll decide they're better going through it together.
Or// the post s4 angsty byler slowburn we all need
Determined to update this as much as possible :)

Summary
Mike ignores the bilious feeling that swims in his gut as he scoops fruit punch into their cups, his mind tortuously replaying that girl’s hand sliding over Will’s shoulder while he does. He shoves the mental image away.
Steve’s words ricochet in his mind. Carpe diem. Seize the fucking day. So stupid.
Then again…
(Or: Mike and Will have always walked the thin line between friendship and something more. A little encouragement goes a long way.)
