    Summary

    Apparently Mike and El are trying to “reignite the spark” by having a weekly date night. El had lit up enthusing about it, had broken into her piggy bank to get a new dress for the occasion.
    Mike, for his part, hasn’t looked Will in the eye since the almost-thing had almost-happened.
    And Will. Well, Will keeps drawing Mike’s stupid hands.

    AKA, Mike takes El out for date nights and is a perfect gentleman, and afterwards, he sneaks into Will's room to do less-than-gentlemanly things.

    Summary

    “Will?”

    Of course.

    “Can I come in?” Mike asks, his voice just loud enough to be heard through the door. “Please?”

    And Will wishes, God, he wishes he could be someone stronger, someone who isn’t so easily broken by the sound of Mike Wheeler saying please.

    But he isn’t.

    OR

    Will Byers is moving on. Mike Wheeler is not jealous. And everyone else is just trying to survive the semester (and the front porch.)

    Summary

    It’s winter in Hawkins, and Mike and Will aren’t speaking anymore. Living in Mike’s house, Will tries to be invisible, spending most of his time in the basement.

    Then the power goes out — and if there’s one thing he dreads more than facing Mike, it’s the cold.

    or

    Seven nights in which Mike and Will have to sleep in the same bed, even though they’re barely friends anymore.

    Summary

    “Our friends are being mean.”

    Will jumps as El lets herself into his room and drops onto his bed. She doesn't look at him, arms crossed and frowning up at the ceiling.

    “Umm. Hello. I see you are upset so I won’t complain about the not knocking thing. Again.” She blinks and finally looks over at him with a small pout. “Sorry.”

    He shakes his head, smiling fondly, “It’s fine. Why are our friends being mean? What did they do?”

    El lets out a puff of air and returns to the staring contest she had been having with the ceiling.

    “They are being rude to Steve.”

    Summary

    Will could walk upstairs to Mike’s bedroom in less than a minute.

    Instead, he waits by the walkie every night.

    (or: a study in how we got from ‘the heart’ to ‘how obvious?’)
