Summary
“I mean. I mean I do. Just—just not like you guys do,” his voice cracked, and Mike’s heart shattered. Will was trying. He was trying so, so hard— “And I, uh, I had this—this crush, on—on someone.”
Mike gulped. He didn’t know he was holding his breath. And..
Was it just him or was Will… looking at him?
…no way.
also known as: mike's perspective to will's coming out scene, and him doing something about it.

Summary
The Byers’ new house is closer to Mike’s.
This is a Development.
Mike sees Will on the weekends. Mike sees Will on occasional school nights. Mike sees Will like he’s living with them again, stuffed into Mike’s back pocket, comfortably, reliably close.
Turns out, this is a problem.
.
or: Will is lovely, and Mike is in love. Maybe. Probably. Definitely.

Bookmarker's Notes
““I love you,” he tells Mike, with sincerity enough to hurt. His eyes are wide and honest. His lips are swollen and pink. He’s smiling, and he gives Mike’s head a tiny little shake in his hands, like this’ll help his words sink in. “I love you, I love you, I love you.””
also mike referring to his love for will as the creature inside him but then letting it build and shift into something more lovely (butterflies).

Summary
Lucas reached for Max's hand, so Mike grabbed onto El's. Lucas called Max beautiful, so Mike dutifully repeated it. Lucas took Max on dates to the movies, so Mike… look, it wasn't his fault that Dustin was at camp, and El couldn't go places with a lot of people, and so he ended up sitting next to Will in the dark theatre.
It wasn't a big deal. In fact, it was so totally not a big deal, that Mike made up a list of rules to keep it that way.
Or- I realised that Halloween was only a few days before s5 v1, and thought it would be cute if that's when mwtfdydg happened

“Will turned to face him, slowly raising one eyebrow. Mike had never understood how he did that. he'd tried, when he was younger, spent hours in front of the mirror waggling his eyebrows up and down, until he'd eventually given up, and decided Will must just be magic.”

Bookmarker's Notes
the people yearn for will byers beating the shit out of mike wheeler in a church while possessed. however. the people also hope it doesn’t happen because will has suffered too much and would feel too much guilt.
