    Summary

    Mike looks at me and I reach a single hand out toward him, my shoes touching the base of the stairs.

    He mouths something I can't read, then his thumb presses down on the button. What did you say, Mike?

    I’m drowning under the weight of the nightmare. But I don’t think I want it to end if it means losing the last place he still exists.

    I can feel the heat of the explosion scorching my face.

    I think I always will.

    or: Will Byers has been given a re-do by fate, two years after Mike Wheeler sacrifices himself to close the gate for good.

    Is this really a dream?

    900-XXX-XXXX call 4 a good time <3

    "And what does God do?" The Reverend leans forward, gripping the edges of the pulpit. One hand raised towards the crowd, others reaching forward with pained expressions, lips moving in urgent whispers—pleading, begging, some of them crying.

    Mike watches them pray for salvation.

    They can’t all be saved.

    or;

    Will Byers is a phone sex operator, and Mike Wheeler is his favorite caller.

    Summary

    Mike grins so widely that he displays each one of his baby teeth. "Open it," he says. "It's a card. I made it for you."

    When Will gingerly peels the birthday card open, Mike’s uneven handwriting is displayed across the page.

    The p’s in happy are backwards, the y wobbly and curled at the end, and the k in Mike is also flipped the wrong way. The word birthday is etched in their kindergarten teacher’s steady print, and it seems like she'd also added the punctuation for him. 

    Happy birthday, Will! 
    Love,
    Mike W

    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

    “Why? Why won’t you ever tell me what’s wrong with you?” Carlton’s voice is filled with frustration, and it sounds like nails on a chalkboard to Will.

    What is wrong with him. It’s such a loaded question. Why does Will wake up screaming sometimes? Why can’t Will handle the cold? Why are there days when Carlton’s hands on him feel like being kept under water with no way up?

    And why can’t Will tell Carlton the truth? How could Will possibly explain it without sounding insane? What is the human translation for being taken and kept in another dimension, violated, and possessed, only to then be violated yet again—

    This part of him is something Will is never going to be able to share with anyone else. That nobody would understand.

    Why won’t you tell me what’s wrong with you.

    “Because you wouldn’t get it.” Will somehow manages to say it without gagging.

    And then, Carlton goes in for the kill.

    “Oh, but Mike does?”

     

    OR

     

    After leaving Hawkins to go to college in the great city of San Franscisco, Will finally finds someone who loves him. The only problem is that the only person in the world who knows him, is someone else.

    Summary

    Mike doesn’t know when his fascination, this obsession started with Will. Maybe when he first met him, it could have been when he got lost in the woods and was missing for a few days, or maybe it was when he noticed Will was starting to get more male attention. Whenever it was, it didn’t matter, not to Mike. All he knew was that every day he was consumed with Will, everything Will, and he didn’t want it to change.

    After a fight with his boyfriend, Will decides to spend Friday night alone in his dorm room. That is, until his best friend and childhood crush shows up at his door.
