    Summary

    Mike has spent the last three years figuring out what on earth to do with his life. From painting like will to writing news articles like Nancy— nothing seemed to work. Until, eventually, he turned back to DnD, landing right back where he started. A storyteller.

    He ends up applying for colleges to get a creative writing degree, and much to his surprise, he’s rejected from all but one. And the one he was accepted to?

    Will’s college.

    Mike tells himself it’s a big enough school and that they’ll never run into eachother. He won’t even have to think about what happened two years ago.

    And then he meets his roommate, Will Byers.

    Or;

    The voice sounded a lot like— 

    He turned around.

    “…Mike?” 

    Mike’s mouth dropped open for a split second, his hands going clammy. 

    “Will.”  

    Mike silently hid the scroll behind his back, putting on a smile. The silence hung thick in the air.

    “Uh, are you my roommate?” The words scratch their way up Mike’s throat, his free hand pointing to the random guy that Will was with.

    “Uh, no, it’s-“ 

    “It’s me,” Will interrupts, raising a small hand before quickly putting it back to the bottom of the boxes.

    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

    Louis, to his horror, attends an elitist university in which the name Zayn Malik means something, Niall Horan doesn't stop talking, there are pianos everywhere, and Harry Styles, only son of a drug-addled, clinically insane ex-rocker, has a perfect smile and empty eyes.
