Summary
Will needs a date to his mom's wedding. Mike volunteers.
“I have an idea,” says Mike.
Ice cubes form in Will’s stomach. “How dangerous is it? Like, should I call Dustin to talk you down, or should I call Nancy to be ready to drive us to the hospital?”
“No,” says Mike, “you can’t tell anyone or it won’t work.”
“Or what won’t work?” Will asks. It’s like picking up a rock you know a spider will be under.
Mike gets up and closes Will’s door. Hopper doesn’t make them keep it open but sometimes Will does anyway, because every now and then lying around alone with Mike on his bed just makes his chest ache too much. If the door is open he can tell himself You can’t do anything right now, someone will see.
Mike leans back against the door. His eyes are lit up with that special maniacal gleam that the Wheelers get right before they do something insane, like when Nancy says, “Then we have to go kill Vecna ourselves,” or whatever. “Take me to the wedding,” says Mike.
“Yeah,” says Will slowly, “you’ll be at the wedding. Obviously.”
“As your date."

Summary
Will Byers has a life now. A boyfriend, a tiny apartment in New York, and a very strict schedule of avoiding small-town Indiana at all costs. That is… until Max and Lucas drag him back home for their wedding.
Cue Carlton, Will’s confident, New York–everything (epilogue) boyfriend who thinks he’s ready for “small-town charm” but is really just here for the open bar. Cue Mike Wheeler, best friend, childhood crush, and still somehow the only person who knows how to make Will’s heart do complicated things.
One wedding, one awkward reunion, several embarrassing childhood memories, and a dangerously flammable mix of jealousy later, Will has to decide, keep pretending he’s happy, or admit that some things, some people, never really leave you.
