Summary
"Mike?" Will asks, jaw dropped open in bewilderment, hand still clutching the door knob.
The Mike standing in front of him is wearing a rickety jacket that almost swallows his thin frame entirely, and has his arms curled around himself, his shoulders hunched. His hands play with his sleeves as if nervous. His body is trembling. And it's the state of his body that really makes Will's blood run cold in horror.
There are bruises all over Mike's face. The black eye he has is stark against the whiteness of his skin, reminding Will of drops of dark paint on a blank canvas. His lip is busted, and Will can see traces of dried blood on him. And most noticeably, he has a ring of bruises around his neck, in the shape of hands.
Upon seeing Will at the door, Mike's expression simultaneously lightens and crumples.
"Will." He croaks out, desperation and vulnerability clear in his shaky voice.
After not speaking nor seeing eachother for 5 years, Mike suddenly turns up at Will's door, bruised and bloodied.

Summary
"He refused to remember anything, to remember a world after Will. He didn't want there to be a world after Will.
Apparently, his subconscious decided that the best way to avoid that was to surround himself with Will.
He assumed that's why he was now in his basement."Or: Will "dies" and Mike has the biggest crashout the world has ever seen.

Summary
“Max, El,” Will said, trying to sound quiet so that the person knocking wouldn’t hear him. “He’s back.”
Max’s voice turned even more stern, which he didn’t think was possible. “Oh, shit, really? You better not be opening that door.”
“No, I’m still standing here,” Will assured, whilst the banging continued.

Mike fucks up and Will angrily kicks him out of the apartment.
It doesn't take long for Mike to come begging for forgiveness.

Summary
Mike buries his face in Will’s stomach, hugging his waist. “Please, please, please.”
Vulnerable to the point he lets himself indulge in physical contact he has never dared to do before.
Will puts his hand on the back of Mike’s head, patting his head gently. He is astonished, lips falling open, he tries to register what is fully going on.
Mike Wheeler on his knees, begging and crying for him to give him a chance—as Max intended.
Holy shit, crying on his knees.
