Summary
“Are you offended that people think we’re dating?”
“No,” Mike says immediately. “Of course not,” because, again, he should be so lucky.
Will’s baffled expression does not change. “Then why would I be?”
“So– okay, fine, whatever. Should we, like, tell them to get their heads out of their asses and that we’re not– um– dating, or–”
“I think,” Will cuts in, “well. You know what would be funny?”
Honestly, Mike doesn't know what he thought being Will Byers' fake-boyfriend would entail, but he definitely didn't think it would involve this many ugly Christmas sweaters.

Summary
“What’re you-” he began asking, cutting himself off when Buck released his hand from his grasp. He pulled his hand back to his chest, looking down at the new adornment Buck had given him.
He let out a little huff and rolled his eyes good-naturedly, climbing into the truck after Buck.
They sat with their knees pressed together, the entire team chatting idly on their way back to the station. Buck’s eyes drifted from Hen and Chimney’s bickering over the recent episode of Love Island to Eddie, intending to ask him when he would finally start watching it with them, but stopped himself short. Eddie was staring down at the back of his hand, pointer finger tracing the edges of the sticker Buck had bestowed on him, the slightest trace of a smile pulling softly at the corners of his mouth.
