  Summary

  Will still can’t believe he can do this now. That he’s allowed to. Will had gotten so used to loving him from a distance; it all still feels so surreal. He never thought he’d get this; that he would ever deserve it. After all those years of pining and yearning, Mike is finally his. They made it–even after surviving the Upside Down and batting monsters and fear and their own demons. They made it. Stronger, even.

  Or

  Will and Mike being soft and completely in love in bed in the morning.
