    Summary

    It's November sixth. Seven years ago, Mike’s world went to shit in the woods outside Hawkins Laboratory. For three years, his life was a bloody, twisted wreck with a hell of a lot of casualties. Somehow, this just feels like another extension of that, like the light at the end of the tunnel turned out to be a train, and it’s bearing down on him at full speed while he’s just standing there and letting it.

    Seven years ago today, Mike Wheeler lost his best friend, and then he lost himself.

    November 6, 1990, in the corner of a crowded room with another boy’s hands in his hair, he feels like maybe, just maybe, he’s finally got a little bit of himself back. He doesn’t know if it’s a part that’s worth keeping, is all.

    Summary

    Mike Wheeler. Freshly 18. Finally graduated.

    Oh yeah, it's also his first normal summer in years. No Upside Down, no blood-thirsty demogorgons, no Vecna.

    What could go wrong?

    Maybe the fact that he's desperately single and his ideal type of girl just so happens to be his best friend.

    Summary

    “Well, maybe you should drive next time, if you’re such an expert!” Mike whines, jabbing Will’s side with his index finger.
    Will yelps and smacks Mike’s hand away. “As if you’d let me drive, or just lift a finger in general.”
    “I let you do plenty of things!”
    “That’s so kind of you. Thank you for letting me.” Will shakes his head, but he fails to hide the smile blooming on his face.
    “Why, you are so very welcome, my liege.” Mike snickers, his nerves finally settling down now that they’re back to their usual squabbling. “I can be reasonable.”

     

    -or-

     
    In exactly one week, Will Byers is leaving Hawkins for college.
    Mike Wheeler is handling this development very normally.
    Unfortunately, "very normally" apparently involves becoming physically incapable of spending more than five minutes away from Will at a time, aggressively avoiding any discussions of the future, and slowly failing to keep his hands to himself.
    How long can he keep pretending everything's fine?

    Summary

    Will smiled back, soft and sweet, like he always was. It was, all in all, the same smile Mike had grown up knowing as well as his own reflection. It was Will's teeth peeking through the slight pull of his chapped lips, and Will's skin wrinkling near his eyes. Mike would know Will's smile anywhere.

    Only, that wasn't his smile.

    Because that wasn't Will.

    "Follow me?" Will asked, and one yellow ray of sunlight punctured the fog, illuminating the tufts of his mud-spattered hair like a halo. It was fitting. If the rest of the town thought Will was the devil, he'd always been an angel to Mike.

    And for the life of him, Mike couldn’t remember what it was he’d been so worried about just a second ago.

    "Yeah," he answered, treading behind Will and headed for the woods. "Always."

    It's the summer of 1987, the town is under lockdown, the people are panicking and praying, and they've pinpointed Will as the one to blame for it all. In fact, nearly everyone seems a little afraid of Will these days, except for Mike.

    (Or: Following a desperate ritual to cast the devil out of Hawkins, Will starts acting strangely. Mike starts having dreams.)
