Summary
"The secret tore apart at Mike, fighting to bubble to the surface and throw a wrench in Mike and Will’s newly repaired relationship. Yet, when Will sat a little too close to him, touched him a little too gently, or was caught gazing for a little too long, Mike could delude himself into believing that his horrifying secret may not be so terrible at all."
or
In the aftermath of the events of s5, Mike Wheeler cannot move on. His life has stagnated, and he has let everyone slip away, consumed by guilt. Worst of all, he has lost the most important person to him: Will Byers. With Will off to college at the end of summer, Mike realizes he has to repair things between them and this summer is his last chance to do so. The only question is whether he will be able to mend the break in time.

Summary
Mike is sitting at the desk that technically belongs to both of them but has, by unspoken agreement, become his. His typewriter is centered in front of him, a stack of slightly wrinkled paper to the left, a mug with cold coffee to the right, and his glasses sliding down his nose every few minutes.
The lamp is on low. Yellow light pools over the keys and his fingers.
He types carefully at first, then faster, then pauses, his fingers hovering over the keys shakily.
On the page, the name stares back at him.Will the Wise.

Summary
“Shut the fuck up.”, Will whispers because he can’t, he just can’t deal with Mike’s confusing ass right now. The soft light is illuminating Mike’s features, jaw carved out so perfectly, cheekbones high, eyes so dark Will feels like they’re swallowing him. “You are, too.”, he adds.
“Prettier than your lame boyfriend?”, Mike ask, voice somehow careful and urgent at the same time.
“Mike…” Will shivers a little, not sure what to do with himself. It’s ridiculous for Mike to actually believe Will has a boyfriend; if that were the case, he would’ve never stepped a foot into this bed. But somehow, Mike’s need to come out on top compared to the guy he is supposedly dating makes Will break out in goosebumps all over.
“That’s not a no.”, Mike remarks.
“That’s not a no.”, Will whispers, scared to move at all and break the moment.
A soft grin plays at the corner of Mike’s mouth, “Oh, yeah?”
“Yeah.”, Will nods, “But you knew that already.”
