Summary
“Something in him broke open the moment Will didn't come home.
It wasn't gradual. It wasn't subtle. One day he was a scared twelve-year-old boy, and the next his body was locked in a constant state of panic—heart racing, hands shaking, thoughts spiraling endlessly around a single, unbearable truth. He couldn't sit still. Couldn't sleep. Couldn't breathe without feeling like something was horribly, irreversibly wrong.
The world felt wrong without Will in it.”
OR
Mike imprints on Will, stuff happens & a now older Mike finally realizes his feelings for Will. (aka I rewrote some Stranger Things scenes to better suit my Byler tastes cuz I hated the ending.)Bookmarked by Smoke_pipe
