    Summary

    “You kept my painting,” Will says. Sure enough, there’s the heart on Mike’s shield, just as red as the day Will painted it. It was Will’s heart that he painted, maybe. It was also Will’s heart that he pulled out and molded into the lie he thought Mike needed to hear, halfway between Salt Lake City and a secret government bunker in Nevada.

    Will’s heart is in his throat now, and in Mike’s hands, and on Mike’s wall, framed and carefully displayed.

    They stand there in silence for a minute, Will on one side of the room and Mike on the other and too many years of radio silence in between. The quiet is so heavy it’s like a weight on Will’s chest, crushing him, applying pressure—but to a wound or to a bruise, he doesn’t know.

    “Will,” Mike says. “Why are you here?”

    (or, will has some realizations and a lot of hard conversations, and not every loss is forever.)

    Summary

    Mike’s entire body pulses with frustration. “Because I’m not Tammy Thompson!
    Will can’t breathe. “But–”
    I’m not Tammy Thompson.” Mike’s eyes blaze. “I’m goddamn Mike Wheeler, and I’ve been in love with you since you set my hair on fire in science class when we were ten.” His jaw clenches, and Will feels like someone let off a grenade next to his head. “I realised I was in love with you when you left me for Lenora, and realised you loved me when you made up that bullshit about El asking you to make me the painting.”
    Will feels the blood leave his face, feels his entire world shifting in an instant. “Mike–”
    “And then you stand there and tell everyone it’s this crush that amounts to the same as some girl who didn’t like Robin back?” Mike’s voice cracks. “I– how am I that to you?”
    -------------------
    Mike confronts Will after he comes out to the group, because he isn't goddamn Tammy Thompson.

    Summary

    Mike's voice is as steady as he can manage with Will's gaze burning a hole through his chest. “I didn’t… I didn’t know. At least, not the way I should’ve. Ever since you saved my life, it feels like… like a waterfall picking up speed, like everything is moving so fast out of my control. Like… like…”

    Will pales, his voice a breathless whisper. “Like an avalanche.”

    Mike releases a breath. “Yeah. Like an avalanche.”
    __________________________________________________________

    Mike's avalanche is the moment Will Byers stands alone on that flaming battlefield, arm outstretched and ripping a monster from the sky to save his life.

    But Vecna isn't done with them yet, and as Will's plan goes horribly wrong, it becomes abundantly clear that only one realisation is going to save the boy's life.

    His best friend's love for him.

    Summary

    It’s winter in Hawkins, and Mike and Will aren’t speaking anymore. Living in Mike’s house, Will tries to be invisible, spending most of his time in the basement.

    Then the power goes out — and if there’s one thing he dreads more than facing Mike, it’s the cold.

    or

    Seven nights in which Mike and Will have to sleep in the same bed, even though they’re barely friends anymore.
