Summary
In the end, it doesn’t matter. None of it fucking matters. Because what’s really in control is the tension. This elusive string tied between their chests that’s always changing length. Right now it’s so short and taught and strong that Will can’t imagine resisting it. So really, it was never a matter of if he would. Just when. When will he fold? When will he let go and let himself follow Mike into the water?
He dares to glance down at his knees, where he can see Mike’s fingers peeking out from behind his calves (as if he needed that visual reminder that they’re touching), and then back up to meet Mike’s expectant gaze.
He’s going to do it. He’s such a fucking idiot.
OR
Mike & Will have a long overdue conversation on the way back to Hawkins— by, in, and around a random motel pool.

Vecna reaches out a spiked claw, tipping Will’s chin to look up at him—to face him in his full, terrifying glory. “There is no god, William,” he says softly, eyes burning. “Only me. And I have already won.”

Summary
After playing his part in preventing the end of the world, Mike thought senior year would be a piece of cake. Compared to fighting monsters and keeping government secrets, how hard could it be to deal with regular family drama, looming college decisions and his suddenly blaring obsession with staring at his best friend?
It's a gradual realization that he may have never wanted the things he thought he did一and some things, he may have wanted all along.

Summary
When he threw his cap in the air, Mike was smiling.
And now he was sitting in the back seat of the Sinclair’s old station wagon with his lanky limbs splayed out over the expanse of two of the worn seats, watching Lucas drum his thumbs on the steering wheel and pointedly not watching Will look out the window in awe.
Mike’s eyes flicked to the rear view mirror over Lucas’ shoulder, and of course. He could see Will’s huge, awestruck smile in the reflection there, and something warm settled in his chest, ready to flutter up his throat and out of his mouth in the form of a sentence that started with I and ended with love you.
**
The day of the Party's graduation brings on a whirlwind of emotions. Mike realizes that this is probably the beginning of the rest of his life, and he can't quite decide how to feel.

Summary
Whatever it is Will is looking for, he seems to find, the corners of his mouth slowly turning upwards as he looks out the driver’s side window, past Mike’s head, before looking right back at him.
“You know,” Will says, a little too evenly, “You parked next to Skull Rock.”
And.
Mike’s breath hitches.
Oh, so it’s like that then.It’s a rainy summer’s day when Mike kisses Will in (sort of) his car.
