    Summary

    “Sorry, sorry,” Mike said, stepping aside and gesturing stiffly at the couch like a Victorian gentleman offering someone a seat. “You can, um… sit. First. If you want.”

    Will narrowed his eyes playfully. “You’re being weird.”

    “You’re being weird!” Mike hissed in a whisper, horrified. “We’re both being weird!”

     

    💕💕💕💕

     

    Mike and Will have finally started dating… they just have absolutely no idea how to act. From failed cuddles to awkward almost-kisses to disastrous hand-holding, they stumble their way through figuring out how to be boyfriends, together.

    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.

    Summary

    "I just need you to know," Will says quietly, and he makes himself hold Mike's gaze, "that if something happens - if I hurt you, or anyone else - it's not because I wanted to. I would never want to hurt you, Mike. Never."

    The words hang between them, loaded with more meaning than Will intended.

    There's a pause where all Will can hear is their breathing echoing against the storage closet's walls. The hum is more distant now, buzzing in the back of Will's mind, but the uneven inhales coming from in front of him sound louder. The breath tickling his nose (because they really are that close) feels realer.

    Mike's eyes are still darting across Will's face, and Will can feel him inhale sharply. "Will, why are you so convinced you're going to hurt someone? What did Vecna show you?"

    Everything, Will thinks. He showed me everything. Showed me killing you over and over until I couldn't see anything else.

    Somewhere between slaying interdimensional eldritch horrors, exploding an entire dimension, and risking their lives countless times, Mike and Will find each other.

    Summary

    Mike thinks it all started the day the Byers moved into their house.

    Having sold their house in Hawkins a year and a half prior and moved to California, when they came back, and the town got put in lockdown, they didn’t have a place to go.

    Mike had kindly offered up their place during dinner.

    The 18-month gap between s4 and s5 told from Mike's POV with minor other POV's as the story progresses. The gap has been lengthened to encapsulate more time passing. They start at 16, but by chapter 6 they're 17 1/2 with them turning 18 chapter 32/34.

    Steve Harrington is to Mike what Robin is to Will

    Season 5 Rewrite to follow WHILE THIS IS A COMPLETE WORK, THE SEASON 5 REWRITE IS A WIP

    Everything is tagged appropriately. If you choose to read, that is your prerogative. No smut occurs until chapter 36.

    “A nice little heart to heart,” Mike repeats quietly. “About my dead girlfriend.”

    “And his dead sister,” Dustin adds, unperturbed.

     

    Or: Post-canon fix-it, from graduation. Four summers, four winter breaks, and four spring breaks in which Mike Wheeler needs to figure his shit out.
