Summary
“Wow,” Will breathes out, just on this edge of teasing. “You sound very confident about this.”
“Well,” Mike shrugs, swallowing hard in a desperate attempt to soothe his very, very dry mouth, “I don’t know why someone wouldn’t be interested in you.”
“Oh?” Will says, and it’s definitely teasing now, enough for Mike to feel himself turning warm, all down his neck and to the tips of his own – sadly unpatterned – socks. “Someone?”
“Yeah.” Mike nods. Oh, god. This is fine. “In a very arbitrary sense of the word. Just– people. Someone.”
Mike is approximately ninety-eight percent sure that his feelings are requited. That last two percent, however, has really been throwing him for a loop.

Summary
Lucas snorted, glancing at Mike out of the corner of his eyes, “You’re saying William Byers is a more complicated subject for you than your parents' sudden divorce?”
“Unironically, yes,” grumbled Mike.
“Dude.”
Mike sighed, looking at the ceiling. “I know, Lucas, okay? I know.”
Or; Karen leaves Ted and subsequently kickstarts Mike's journey to reclaim his bravery.

Summary
College was supposed to be a fresh start. The Party is scattered across nearby campuses, close enough to pretend nothing has changed. Will is finally happy or at least trying to be with his new boyfriend, Carlton. Mike tells himself he doesn’t care. He tells himself a lot of things.
Between shared houses, crowded college parties, and a friend group that never really learned how to separate, they keep falling into familiar patterns: late nights, quiet check-ins, and Mike noticing things he probably shouldn’t anymore. Everything Mike thought he understood about himself starts to unravel. Some realizations come too late. Some feelings refuse to stay buried.
And some feelings don’t fade just because you pretend they have.

Summary
Mike Wheeler has built his career as a defense attorney on finding reasonable doubt.
So when he takes the case of Joyce Byers, who’s accused of killing her husband, he’s convinced of proving she’s innocent. The evidence is thin, the prosecution is overconfident, and Mike knows how to win.
What he doesn’t know how to do is ignore Will Byers, who’s loyal to his mother, haunted by his father, and far too good at keeping secrets.
And falling for Will might be the most damning evidence of all.

Summary
"Need a light?" MJ looks down at the joint in Will's hands, confused.
"Oh, right now?" Will startles, looking at the door handle.
"Are you always this jumpy? Man, you really need this, huh? C'mere." Will hesitates. MJ sighs, reaching for the joint in Will's lap and feeding it to him.
He sparks the lighter and holds it to the end of the freshly rolled joint. Will watches his eyes on the flame, unsure what to do next. "Breathe in." MJ demands through an airy laugh, waiting for the end of the joint to glow before leaning back in his seat.
