    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

    Mike pushes into his hands, but Will keeps him still.

    "Ask again," he says. Because he's greedy, and he wants Mike to want him.

    He stares at Will's mouth. "Please."

    "Again."

    El is gone.

    Will tries to figure out how to move on in New York, and Mike follows him. Their apartment is haunted not by ghosts, but by the two of them.

    Or: Catastrophically traumatized boys cling to each other and accidentally figure out how to be close—too close—while moving through their grief.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    this is more than a fanfic. i’ve never read anything that explores the intricacies of mike will and els relationship like this. in a lot of ways, el took what belonged to will. the show never touched on that but this did. and talks deeply about the jealousy and melancholy that comes with that. el had her life ripped from her and will wrestles with the way he feels like he’s replaced her. this is honestly a story about el as much as it is about mike and will.

    i appreciate the realism of being queer in the 90s. once again ive never read a story this grounded in regards to that. a lot of fics jump into will and mike already having the perfect idea of sex and doesnt tap into the fear of being gay in a time when it wasnt accepted and in a place where that kind of knowledge wouldnt be accessible. how the hell would they have known to have sex im crying. not hating on those stories at alm i eat those up but this one. this story delves into queer loneliness, with mike not really accepting he’s gay and will stepping into the queer nyc community like a baby duckling.

    these two components make this my favorite byler fic by far. thank you author

    Summary

    “You’ve been waiting for me, haven’t you?” says Mike.

    Even though he knows they’re just pretending, Will feels a dull pang in his chest at the truth of those words. He nods and whimpers in affirmation; vulnerable, a little sad.

    “Good.” Mike kisses him on the forehead. “I’ve been waiting for you too, you know.”

    Will has a hang-up. Mike indulges him.
