Summary
(let’s just pretend El didn’t really die and is still happily living in hawkins)
5 years after the epilogue, Will moved to New York and met Carlton at a bar; he accepted himself for who he truly is and is in a stable and healthy relationship with Carlton. But he still can't bring himself to fully forget Mike, even though he never even told him directly he once liked him.
Mike can't get Will out of his mind either. Still living at his parents’ house, he started to write novels. For some reason, he always ends up describing the main character exactly like Will. Either in personality or in looks. He even wrote a novel about a secret gay relationship between a paladin and a cleric, hoping Will would read it and understands it’s about them.
Maybe it’s his way to cope with the fact he couldn’t accept who he really was when Will was there, and he’ll never be able to if Will isn’t there with him.
He even broke up with El because the pain of lying to her all the time was unbearable.
