Summary
“Just saying, if you’re taking another hit, you should share it with me,” Mike says, and Will slowly tilts his head, drinking in every word. “It just makes sense. Like, mathematically.”
Will’s reddened eyes narrow, bewildered. “Mathematically?”
“If there’s two hits left, we’d each only get one,” Mike explains. “But if we shotgunned, we’d both get two.” God, this is the best idea he’s had in ages. He should’ve stolen Will’s weed, like, months ago. “That’s like, bang for your buck. This is simple math, Will Byers. Keep up.”
In which it’s well past midnight in New York, Will can’t sleep, and Mike feels like they barely know each other anymore.
So, they get a little high. Mike is very normal about all of it.

Summary
“I bet your boyfriend's funny, huh?” he said, before he could stop himself. His eyes flicked back to the piece of jewellery on Will’s neck. “Nice necklace by the way.”
Will froze.
Mike wasn’t stupid. He knew it wasn’t just a necklace. It was a signal. A claim.
Six years after everything, Mike Wheeler has built a life of routine and avoidance, convincing himself that silence is the same as healing. Will Byers has done the opposite – he’s left, grown, and learned to love without apology.
When they meet again at Lucas and Max’s wedding, the truth Mike has spent years avoiding, finally demands to be faced – especially when he sees Will with someone else.
As he finds out, sometimes yearning doesn’t fade with time. It grows, until punches are thrown.

The trouble came when he had to pretend it wasn't real.

no words. both equally earth shattering and beautiful. rips you apart only to stitch you right back together. only you’re now a better person because of it.

“I want you to tell him why you're so upset," Vecna says, and Will swears he sees the curl of a smile in the webbed scars of his face. “I want to watch you lose him.”

Summary
“Did I do something wrong?” Mike questions, mouth twisted in a frown, eyes less wide than they were a few moments ago, sleepiness gone. His arms stay at his sides, although his fingers fiddle with his sleeves. “What did I do wrong?”
Will frowns back. “You didn’t do anything wrong.”
Mike doesn’t look like he believes him. Will doesn’t blame him. “Then why do you keep leaving?”
The world ends, and then some. Mike and Will find each other again, amidst the debris and distance.

Summary
“Nah, man,” Lucas shakes his head, leaning back as he snacks on an apple, “he got, like, buff. Do you see his arms?”
Mike does, in fact, see Will’s arms. He has not stopped seeing his arms.
“She definitely sees his arms,” Dustin very unhelpfully points out, waggling his eyebrows, and Mike gets the overwhelming urge to bash his own head in.While volunteering at the Hawkins' help center, it seems like every girl around has a newfound interest in Will Byers, and Mike doesn't know why he feels the way he does.

Summary
"I can listen no longer in silence."
The hologram projection of his strangely handsome face is cobalt blue, flickering, and full of static. "I must speak to you, Rey. You… you pierce my soul. I am half agony, half hope. Tell me that I am not too late.” He groans, runs his hands through his dark, silver-streaked hair, then refocuses his gaze on the holorecorder. “I offer myself to you again with a heart even more your own than when you almost broke it, eight and a half years ago. Do not say that man forgets sooner than woman, that his love has an earlier death."
Here the recording of Ben takes a deep breath, and looks down at something outside the holorecorder’s field of view. Perhaps at his hands, Rey manages to think, through the veil of shock and timid, fluttering hope. She wishes she were there with him, so she could take them in her own, and offer him the confidence to carry on.
But this is only a hologram, so she must wait. Eventually, when he looks up again, his features have settled. He looks… Fierce. Determined. Self-assured.
"I have loved none but you," he says.

Summary
Rey knew the terms of her marriage all too well. She would give Ben Solo the right to the throne her grandfather sat on before his family overthrew him and she would be protected from his influence. She was but a girl of fifteen, and so Ben Solo, ten years her senior agreed to a pact with her to consummate their marriage ten years after, and only then to secure the line of succession for the throne. After that they can live their separate lives.
Except she never expected to fall in love with her beautiful, funny and charming husband. A husband who has become her closest friend, her most trusted confidante, and the only family she's ever known. A husband who's first love returns to the Core Worlds after a mission to the Outer Rims. A husband who plans to reunite with said first love after he fulfills his end of the bargain.
(Or when Empress Kira Ren can't hide the fact that she's thirst for her husband, Emperor Kylo Ren)

Summary
Inspired by this tweet from @MeedaWrites:
https://twitter.com/MeedaWrites/status/1260930186746331137
Summary:
“Just a heads up dear, there’s only a couple of seats left,” Headmistress Organa explains as they climb the stairs, “and I’m sitting in the one next to the deputy, so you’ll have to take the one next to my son.”
Rey stops dead in her tracks, sure she misheard the headmistress, because there’s no way she just said her son is sitting on this bus right now and that Rey would be sitting next to him.
Her son that Rey has had a creepy crush on since her freshman year.
Her son that Rey has tried (and failed) to forget about since he graduated.
Her son that goes to Rey’s top choice school.
-or-
In which Rey is just trying to have a good time on her high school senior ski trip when the headmistress decides to drag her son (and Rey's long-standing crush) along, and awkwardness ensues.
