Summary
Mike is tired of sharing Will’s attention. After seeing a method online to ensure total devotion, he spends three days secretly lacing Will's food and drinks with his own cum. On the second day, Will finds the search history—the guides on "cockdrunk" states and "chemical conditioning"—and decides to keep drinking anyway.
By the third day, the living room is a blur of sensory overload. Soon, Will is dazed, uncoordinated, and completely dependent on Mike’s touch to stay grounded.
"You saw those tabs on my laptop, and you still drank every drop of that tea this morning, didn't you?" Mike whispered, pinning Will’s wrists to the mattress.
Will's eyes were glazed, pupils swallowed by the haze. "I wanted to be your toy," he whimpered. "Please, Mike. I’m so full of you already... I just need the rest."

Summary
“Is it cause you used to have a crush on me?” Mike asked, abruptly.
“What!” It was Will’s turn to blush harder, giving him a glare reserved for Mike Wheeler and Mike Wheeler only. “No. God. That was ages ago. I’ve been past that for a long time.”
Mike motioned like he’d made his point. “See? So? It wouldn’t be weird.”
So, Mike likes guys. Fine, Will can live with that. Except now Mike's worried about having fallen behind and would really like some help practicing how to kiss a guy from his also-into-guys best friend. And Will is trying really, really hard to be a good mentor to him, so what is he going to do, say no?

Summary
Holy fuck, he did not just do that. He feels like an inexperienced teenager all over again. To be fair, he and Mike had never really messaged each other sexually before, so to say he was new at this would be an understatement.
No, shit, he can’t be thinking about him. Not right now.
Will and Mike break up and begin sexting each other on a hook-up site without knowing it's the other.

Lucas snorted, glancing at Mike out of the corner of his eyes, “You’re saying William Byers is a more complicated subject for you than your parents' sudden divorce?”

Or; Karen leaves Ted and subsequently kickstarts Mike's journey to reclaim his bravery.

Summary
After they save the world, Will gets a boyfriend and a haircut. Mike loses his mind.
A bunch of random words and feelings flash through Mike’s brain but they won’t settle down to form a sentence. He just can’t fathom the idea of Will…with a boyfriend. Will’s boyfriend. A boyfriend who is Will’s. It won’t make sense no matter how he squints at it. “Dudes kissing or whatever is cool,” Mike says eventually. “It’s just… Will…”
Will picks up a pillow and throws it at Mike’s face. Mike catches it. “That’s not fair,” Will says. “Dustin has Suzie, and Lucas has Max.”
“But you’re Will,” says Mike. Doesn't everyone else feel this way, too? Dustin and Lucas are looking at him with twin expressions of horrified fascination, like Mike is some kind of slow-motion train wreck. “I mean– I mean, you’ve always been–”
My Will, Mike’s brain finishes. Shit, he’s not saying that out loud.
“The baby?” asks Will, glaring at him. “Shut up, Mike.”
“No,” Mike says again, miserable, but he can’t say I don’t want there to be some other guy you like more than me out loud where god and Dustin can hear him and never let him forget it as long as he lives.
