Summary
Will feels as if his world slows, as if his brain cannot determine what is going on– his brain doesn’t get it. Not processing what is happening right before his eyes.
No. No. Stop…Mike..
Not him too, not Mike.
Will crumbles. He’s screaming. Calling out for him to stop. That he shouldn’t be doing it. But it doesn’t leave his mind, the words don’t exit out of this lips, he’s stuck.

Summary
When he was fifteen, he didn’t think he’d ever make it this far. When he was twelve, he knew he wasn’t making it this far, so why is he? Why is he still sitting here, why is the air still reaching, and filling in his lungs if he doesn’t deserve to be here? Why do his veins still fill with the poison they call blood?

Summary
Mike shifts his gaze onto the ground behind them, the very, very long fall to the ground. A very reminder of his twelve year old self at the edge of the quarry, his eyes fixed on the ground. His mind wondering just a second too long,
What if?

Summary
The words filling his mind, jump, just jump– they don’t need you.
Will’s dead, what else do you have left?
He should have died that day.
If Jane had just let him fall.
If Jane just never came at all--would they all be better off without him?
Michael James Wheeler should be dead.
He should’ve had a funeral by now.
He should have been way gone. He doesn’t deserve Will, he doesn’t deserve being alive, seeing this now.He isn’t worthy.
He isn’t the heart.
He is a pathetic excuse for someone who tried to be a leader.
He’ll never be a leader, he’s pitied by the party– that’s why they call him the leader.
He isn’t confident. He isn’t smart. He doesn’t know what he’s doing.

Summary
The voice came out overtly snarky, in a way that was far too recognizable. “Well, not your landlord, clearly.”
Will could have dropped the phone. “Mike?”
Mike’s voice on the other line hesitated this time. “Yeah. It’s me.”
OR:
The year is 1994. The gates to the Upside Down closed nearly seven years ago. Jane Byers-Hopper sacrificed herself seven years ago. Will Byers is a jaded and overworked painter living in New York City, and has not been in Hawkins since graduation, back in ‘89.
That was, until, he receives a call from an old friend about fulfilling a promise made back in 1987; to finish their D&D campaign that they'd started in the midst of the war. Seven years of night terrors begin to bleed into his own reality as he returns home, and Will is forced to face the music that he has been running from for as long as he can remember.

Summary
“Woah- Will.” He jumped to his feet, stumbling to look over Will’s shaking shoulder at the now smeared surface. “Shit… this is really…”
“Sad…” “Poignant…”
They spoke at the same time, Will turning to Mike with a confused crinkle on his nose bridge.
“English major.” Will huffed with a weary grin, his hazel eyes flicking across Mike’s speckled face. “You’re so pretentious.” He teased, jabbing the taller man’s chest. A smile passed between them, the room suddenly very warm.
“Will- You know you could’ve just asked me to model for you right?”
“Yeah I know…”
“...But?”
“...But…” Will had started to dip his brushes into the stained cup of murky water. “I need my model to be-” He’d posed for Will in the past, it wasn’t something new. “I need a nude model.”

Will Byers has seemingly moved on from everything, his past feelings, Hawkins, the trauma. Michael Wheeler has not. Suffering from survivor's guilt, as well as general depression due to the loss of someone, someone that made him feel normal.

Summary
At first, Mike was unsure how to approach him when he got like this. But they’ve been living together for months now, never further than five feet apart in their dorm beds, so Mike’s learned what works and what doesn’t.
It works when he wakes Will like this, with gentle hands and words, telling him he’s safe. It works when he climbs into Will’s warm bed, turning him on his side and curling up against his back, an arm over his waist and his cheek pressed against his shoulder. They lie together like that until Will’s hiccupping gasps soften into steady breaths, until Mike feels him go limp in his arms and he knows he’s fallen back asleep. It always works.
or: Will has nightmares and Mike is the only one who can console him. Not even Will's boyfriend can. Mike takes great pride in this fact.

Summary
Three years ago, Mike Wheeler was too afraid to speak, too afraid to feel the truth that was always buried deep within him. He let the one person who had always been his safe place, Will Byers, slip away, and in that silence it became too late.
Now, living a life drained of color and weighed down by regret, Mike follows a thread of hope to New York City, desperate to find the boy he let go. When he sees Will on the dance floor, confident and alive in a way Mike never imagined, he is stunned. Every smile, every movement reminds him of all the years he spent afraid and all the years he spent loving in silence.
Standing before him, hearts tremble and words falter. Mike is desperate for a life where fear does not rule him, where regret does not weigh him down, and where he can finally fight for the person he has loved all along.
For the first time in years, he is not willing to let that love slip away again.

Summary
“You should go back to sleep”, Mike mutters, but Will’s eyes are already flying over his face, and he is probably taking in the embarrassing number of tears, and the sweaty hair sticking onto his forehead and—
“You’re bleeding”, Will whispers, and then, as if the realization strikes just now as he says it out loud, his voice increases in volume, but shakes harder all the more, “Mike, there’s— there’s blood pouring from your mouth.”
Mike would have been perfectly content with never exploring the depth of his repressed feelings, if it wasn't for the deadly flowers blooming in his lungs.
