   Summary

   1994.
   So Mike Wheeler is a depressed little writer in New York and Will is a free little lad who has tried his best to move on. He lives a nice life but when he meets Mike in a random cafe on a random morning, byler fireworks pop and the figure everything out and all the memories are alive again and they fall in love (hopefully). I hated the Season 5 ending so this is my version of what actually happens after.
