Summary
“People in good relationships don’t keep breaking up and getting back together,” Elle is saying as Nick tunes back into their conversation. “I can’t revolve my life around someone else,” she sighs, sounding more than a little resigned. “It would only make us resent each other and eventually… that would kill the love that’s there.”
The clock keeps ticking down in the back of his head, louder and louder. It’s only a matter of time.
or, the night of the break-up from Nick's POV

Summary
Will raises his eyebrows. “Is that why you came in here?” he repeats, looking back down at the blue flannel. “To ask me about the weather in Lenora?”
“Kind of,” Mike says, and then, “well no, not about the weather specifically. I just– I wanted to talk to you.”
“Oh.” And Will looks a lot more surprised at this, actually, than the idea that Mike might have just wanted to come to his room to make small talk about unseasonably frigid California winters. “Okay. What about?”
“Anything.” The response is embarrassingly immediate. “Everything. I don’t know. I missed you.”
Hawkins, 1986. The world is ending, there are too many people in Mike's house, and to top it all off, he and Will have some things to talk through.

Summary
"Well it matters to me, you matter to me." Will said softly, face still dripping with concern for Mike.
"oh" was all Mike could respond with. He could feel his face heating up at the thought of meaning something to Will.
obviously you mean something to Will, your his best friend. The logical part of his brain thought, but he was too sick to think logically right now so he just allowed himself to delve into his fantasies.

Summary
His entire body hurts like a bitch. He wraps his arms around himself as he shivers, a cold, achy feeling settling into his muscles. He swallows, wincing at the soreness and discomfort in his throat. He tries to sit back up, but immediately regrets it as the pounding behind his eyes becomes worse and dizziness overtakes him.
Mike doesn’t even bother lying to himself. He’s definitely sick.
But he can't be late to class. So he's going even if it kills him.
Or Modern-day college AU sickfic where Mike tries to ignore the fact that he's sick so he doesn't miss class, but Will finds him passed out on a park bench. Because of course giving Will a heart attack is part of their relationship

Summary
“Mike, Mike, help me. Mike, I’m not ready to die.”
“Please hold on, Will stay awake, please.”Another nightmare, every night. Although Mike can't seem to figure out why they're always about the same person: Will.
