Summary
“You’re going to mess up your lipstick. Worked hard on that.” Nancy’s hand is gripping Robin’s chin. Her finger almost in Robin’s mouth. Pressing. Robin can’t get any relief.
“Sorry. Bad habit,” Robin forces out. Her voice sounds rough, breathy, nothing like herself.
Nancy smiles, kind. Even this close to Robin, Nancy looks at her like there’s nothing wrong with her, with the way she is. All of Robin’s incompetence and how uncontrollable she feels sometimes, Nancy sees all of it. And Nancy, perfect fucking Nancy Wheeler, doesn’t shy away. She wants more, more of Robin.
Or: Robin thinks she’s losing her mind. Nancy thinks Robin likes a boy.

Summary
Will’s eyelashes flutter as he sinks further, pushing Lucas backwards, hands pressing tighter into the fabric of Lucas’s shirt, bunching it up just slightly at the waist. Mike aches and aches. He doesn’t know how he must look, slack-jawed and wide eyed, face burning at the sight of Will’s satisfied hum into another boy’s mouth.
Or: Will won’t stop kissing other boys, and Mike has no idea what to do with himself.

see out the night (your head on my chest) by sapphosfreckles

Summary
Mike doesn’t mean for sharing a bed with Will to become a 'thing.' What starts as a one-time thing for a rough night of sleep slowly turns into a habit.
They just sleep better next to each together, that’s all.
It doesn’t hurt that Will blushes at the slightest touch. And Mike definitely doesn’t like seeing it. Because that would be weird.
It's fine until Will gets drunk one night and says something Mike definitely wasn’t supposed to hear.
-
or, Mike accidentally spends an entire semester making his best friend blush in his bed.

Bookmarker's Notes
Very slowly, Will lifts a hand up under the covers, the tips of his fingers just brushing Mike's arm at first. When Mike doesn't react, or shove him off, or whatever insane reaction Will's worried about, he holds on to Mike's forearm properly. Squeezes once, then once more quickly.
Thank you, it means, in their long-dormant code. Mike isn't sure when they had stopped adding new entries.
Mike cracks an eye open and can make out the moonlight glinting on Will's front teeth where they bite down on his bottom lip, in a poor attempt at suppressing a smile. Warmth curls in Mike's chest as a grin spreads slowly across his face.
Will tips his head to the side slightly, and rolls his eyes.
"Go to sleep, you dork," Will whispers, the smile evident in his voice. "I have to be up in, like, four hours for work."

Summary
“Why? Why won’t you ever tell me what’s wrong with you?” Carlton’s voice is filled with frustration, and it sounds like nails on a chalkboard to Will.
What is wrong with him. It’s such a loaded question. Why does Will wake up screaming sometimes? Why can’t Will handle the cold? Why are there days when Carlton’s hands on him feel like being kept under water with no way up?
And why can’t Will tell Carlton the truth? How could Will possibly explain it without sounding insane? What is the human translation for being taken and kept in another dimension, violated, and possessed, only to then be violated yet again—
This part of him is something Will is never going to be able to share with anyone else. That nobody would understand.
Why won’t you tell me what’s wrong with you.
“Because you wouldn’t get it.” Will somehow manages to say it without gagging.
And then, Carlton goes in for the kill.
“Oh, but Mike does?”
OR
After leaving Hawkins to go to college in the great city of San Franscisco, Will finally finds someone who loves him. The only problem is that the only person in the world who knows him, is someone else.

Summary
Twenty-two years after leaving, Will travels back to Hawkins to face his past. Only Mike now lives there, too.
Or, ‘He might as well have carved 'Mike' into his thigh. It would have been more honest.’

Summary
That’s because he’s my boyfriend, Mike!” Will shouts.
“And us?” Mike presses, a sick sense of deja vu creeping coldly over his brain.
Will exhales sharply, “We’re friends. We’re friends! You made sure of that. So I don’t know why you’re so mad at me!”
“Because it was supposed to be me!”
Will blinks, “What are you talking about?”
“I’m mad because it was supposed to be me!” Mike shouts it desperately, like a plea, like this is making him go crazy, and fuck, maybe it is, “After everything—at the end—it was meant to be me. Not him. I don’t want it to be him. I want it to be me.”
Or, Mike doesn't realize his own feelings, until Will's are staring him dead in the face. Vecna's gone, they're nearing the end of their senior year, and all of a sudden Will has a boyfriend. Everything goes downhill pretty quickly from there.

god I love this fic more than anything
—
Mike’s stomach drops. He knows that breathing. He’s memorized its pattern in sleep, in motion, in sobs— knows it through a walkie talkie, through a laugh, through a kiss.

Summary
Point was, Mike Wheeler liked to be needed.
And Will Byers?
Well…
Will swallows, eyes focused pointedly on Mike’s long, slender fingers. The way they twist and they pull, fixing the broken strap to Will’s backpack.
Will Byers loved when Mike fixed things for him.
It was becoming a problem.
Or, Will comes up with a plan that could benefit the both of them. Mike gets to be a hero in every day life, and Will? He gets to have Mike's attention.
