If I Can't Get The Things I Want (Just Give Me What I Need) by pickled_pepperoni (suspicious_salami)

Summary
Through the bond, Will felt Mike’s horror. His regret.
Mike hadn’t meant to bite him. His instincts had taken over completely, and now they were bonded—permanently, irreversibly—and Mike looked at Will like he’d just made a terrible mistake.
“Mike—” Will started, but his voice came out wrecked.
“I bit you.” Mike’s voice was hollow. “I didn’t mean to. I swear—”
Will touched his throat, fingers coming away bloody. The bond was there, thrumming between them.
“It’s okay,” Will said, even though nothing about this was okay. “It was the heat—”
“We have to break it,” Mike said.
OR: Will goes into heat while he and Mike are trapped in the Upside Down and they accidentally bond.

Summary
The apocalypse does not arrive. Led by the wind and the promise of normalcy, Will finds himself in Chicago sharing an apartment with Lucas and Max - discovering a life outside of Hawkins.
Halloween carries Mike to their doorstep, where he realizes, that while he is all too fond of seeing Will dressed as Dana Barrett, he is not a fan of seeing Will as the love interest to Lucas’s Dr. Peter Venkman.
Fucking signals fucking him over and worsening his break down only a few days later… Will ought to laugh about it with Robin, one of these days.
There is an alarming keenness in Mike’s eyes, on his face, in his body language. His behavior at seeing Will in a dress being from homophobia is at a half possibility, at present.
Curiously enough, this Mike wants to make-out.
Not date, no.
Will wonders, whether the fifteen-year-old version of himself would be appeased by this Mike. He thinks, too, of that naïve sixteen-year-old Will, his buoyant demeanor with Robin misplaced amidst their quest to defeat Vecna; would he settle for this Mike?
Deep within him, Will knows that the answers would not matter - not now. This Will Byers would.

Summary
"They were satellites in unstable orbit, trying desperately not to collide while being pulled toward each other anyway."
Will Byers thought he'd buried his feelings for Mike Wheeler somewhere between Hawkins and Chicago. Then Mike walks into his life again, and eight years of distance collapse into nothing.
What starts as a forbidden attraction becomes something neither of them can name - desperate encounters, painful misunderstandings, emotional manipulation, and Mike's inability to reconcile who he is.
When Mike finally stops running, he might just be too late.
