Summary
Mike has always been good at creating stories. He brought entire worlds to life and hidden paths bloomed on the tip of his tongue; words were his magic language.
Will used to watch him, full of awe and wonder: he was his first listener. His first reader.
Will was quieter than Mike. He was used to taking up as little space as possible. The only people with whom he truly felt safe were Mike and his older brother Jonathan. His language was colour: Will was good at drawing, at bringing Mike’s stories to life with colored pencils, with crayons. When speaking made him too anxious, he drew: Will drew his dreams, his nightmares.
Mike was his first admirer. The first one to have the privilege of walking through his private, secret museum.
( ... )Mike, finally, looks at Will. He becomes a child again, remembering himself and noticing the first signs of Will’s possession: his restless visions, his drifting dissociation, his quiet, heavy silence, his creeping alienation.
Mike’s heart swells painfully, like the sails of a boat.
Will keeps staring at the sea.His gaze is blank.

Summary
“Will, I’m—"
“Shut up, Mike. Just—"
Will stormed up to Mike, mouth parted, chest heaving, and shoved his fingers in Mike’s hair, gripping at the base of his skull. Mike winced a little, accepting his punishment, until he saw the look on Will’s face.
“Kiss me.” Will stepped closer, “Kiss me again, Mike.”
It had been seven years since the party ended in Mike Wheeler’s basement that night after graduation. His friends moved on without him; living the stories the paladin once wrote for his beloved cleric, his bard, his ranger, and his zoomer. Mike stayed in Indiana, he worked as an engineer, he came home to his cat and ate microwaved dinners. He had been drowning in a sea of conformity, grasping at the only lifeline that ever made sense to him, his imagination.
Or- Mike Wheeler ends up in New York with no plan, wondering if his former best friend still lived in the city. He felt aimless, close to giving up and going back to Hawkins, when he saw a painting of his younger self hung in a gallery, a plaque next to the frame reading, “First Love-W.B”. Mike’s world turned upside down once again, when he was faced with the reality that he’d always been too scared to admit. He had to find Will.

Summary
It’d been a week since the Byers had haphazardly landed on the Wheeler’s doorstep.
Wrapping a gentle hand around the doorframe, Will stopped himself just before the entrance to the bathroom. The sun caught the tips of his hair in a golden light, the damp of the bathroom air multiplying infinitely and pressing down on Mike’s chest. Streaks of honeyed sunlight outlined Will’s features, a small smile pulling at the corners of his mouth, parted as if caught just before a morning greeting. Mike's eyes trailed the outline of his lips, moving, moving, moving…
or
18 months in which Mike and Will have a few too many shared looks, bumps of the elbows and knees, and enough desire to accrue an avalanche.
