    Summary

    Living under the same roof as Mike Wheeler was supposed to be a dream come true. Instead, it's a silent nightmare. Following the events of Season 4, the distance between Will and Mike has never been greater, the silence in the Wheelers' basement deafening.
    While helping Jonathan with a secret errand, Will stumbles upon something he was never meant to find. Hidden beneath an old D&D box are letters - lots of them - written by Mike during their time apart in California. Letters that were never sent.

    Summary

    With the Byers temporarily living under the Wheelers' roof, Mike and Will are forced into a proximity they’ve been desperately trying to avoid, after both getting sick. Between shared blankets and hazy fever dreams, the lines they’ve drawn between friendship and something more begin to blur, forcing them to confront a reality neither is ready to name.

    Or

    Mike and Will are in love with each other, but they're too scared to admit it, so it takes a delirious fever for them to finally stop lying to themselves, with childhood memories and an angry confession in the rain.

    "He realized, with a terrifying clarity, that he would trade every bit of safety and normalcy for just one more second of Mike Wheeler looking at him like he was the only thing that mattered in the world."
