Summary
“You used to talk to me,” Mike whispers.
Will’s lungs seize. Shit.
“We’re talking now,” he tries for casual, voice small, hoping it’s enough.
“Not like this,” Mike says. “Real talking.” He swipes at his eyes angrily, pulls away, wraps his arms around his knees. “You used to tell me everything. Even the stuff you didn’t tell Dustin or Lucas. It used to be just… us.”

Summary
Here’s the thing – Mike is selfish. He always has been. When Will went missing, he forced everybody to look for him. He forced El to stay and help until she was overstimulated and in danger, forced his friends to deal with him jumping off a cliff, forced El to save him, and then inadvertently forced her to become his girlfriend. Then he forced her to break up with him.
Eighteen months after the world almost ends, Mike finds himself floating.
In which Mike Wheeler tries to deal with everything, implodes, and Nancy remembers how to be a big sister again.
