Summary
“That’s not true—“
“Then say it. Say it, Will!”
Will hesitates. “Say what?”
A beat. Then—
“Tell me that I’m wrong. Tell—”
He gulps. Will’s eyes dilate in shock.
“Tell me what’s going on with you, Will. For fuck’s sake, just talk to me!” Mike exclaims.
A stray sunbeam crawls up Mike’s cheek. At first, Will believes it to be another hallucination: that odd glassy sheen around his best friend’s waterline.
But when he concentrates, he notes that it isn’t a trick of the light at all. Rather, wetness brims in Mike’s eyelids, staining his eyes red.
Oh. Oh no.
ORIt's January, and Will Byers doesn't know how to act around his best friend anymore. But he has to hold strong. He has to keep his feelings to himself. If he doesn't, he'll lose everything.
----
Set after season 4 and before season 5. Loosely inspired by "you took my heart (I was sleeping)" by lameparties.

Summary
"I assume you've already met my son Will?"Mike nodded in Will's direction. It wasn't until their eyes met, just briefly, that Will realized he hadn't taken his eyes off Mike once. It was a purely dissecting gaze, analytical and unsure—but he still felt a subtle warmth spread through his face, as if he'd been caught gawking. He looked away, towards the kitchen where his mother was returning with a clinking glass of ice water, just after catching a glimpse of a smirk from Mike.
"I have," Mike said. He almost sounded smug.
"His full name is William," Jim said, lowering his voice a notch as if it were a secret. Will's attention quickly snapped to him. "Maybe you two can bond over that."
"I don't—"
"William, huh?" Mike interrupted, a stupid half-smile still on his lips. "Anyone else call you that, or just your dad, too?"
Will's brows twitched. "No," he answered, with an air of uncertainty. "No one does."
Mike nodded. His eyes flicked up and down Will again before he responded with, "Cool."
Cool.
Cool?

Summary
It's been almost 5 years since the final battle with Vecna, since they lost El, and 3 years since the party graduated from high school. Now it's 1992, and the party has one more summer break before their final year of college, and they have to enter the "real world".
Over the years, Mike has done everything he can to keep the party together. They graduated from high school together, moved to NYC together, and went to college together. However, change is inevitable, and not only is he scared of the party drifting apart, but he's terrified of the changes he's begun to realize about himself. Mike wishes they could go on one final adventure, and he wishes to have the chance to be brave about his feelings, but you should always be careful what you wish for.
Or
The party goes on a camping trip with Steve and Robin the summer before their senior year of college and accidentally gets transported into the province of Skyrim, a strange and magical land.
Did they need the adventure, or did the adventure need them?

Summary
“Do you just not want everyone to know your fantasy is about me?”
Will expected Mike to startle, or jolt away again, or shove him away with his typical shock-annoyance. But he didn’t. He stilled, his eyes locking on the pool where a few more fully clothed people had been pushed into the chaotic waters – but it was an unfocused gaze, and Will knew he wasn’t really paying attention to the scene in front of him.
Mike may not be, but Will is completely sober. Painfully attached to reality. Acutely aware of every point their bodies are connecting – chest to upper arm, chin to shoulder, arm to back, knees grazing. He knows the dangers, knows it’s Mike, knows he might really be fucking up – either by making Mike uncomfortable, or inviting old feelings to resurface. So he really, really doesn’t know why he adds, “Tell me, baby.”
Or
Mike Wheeler gets told he's going to fall in love by a psychic - which is, of course, ridiculous. Until Will starts calling him pet names as a joke, and Mike realizes he would've much rather been told he was going to die.
