    Summary

    Mike kicked his feet up off the bike pedals and let gravity take him down the familiar path to the Byers’ house. If asked, he would say there wasn’t much on his mind. That was partially true, too, if you considered one thing not very much in terms of things.

    That one thing being Will Byers.

    AKA Mike visits the Byers during Thanksgiving season.

    Summary

    It's almost time for Max and Lucas's wedding. Mike makes a promise.
    -

     

    Whatever. Mike is patient, he really is. He'll keep being patient, even if there’s no fuckin’ way Clinton’s getting them there, to that mystical, utopic future world where it's not inexplicably wrong to be in love. Maybe the next asshole, or whoever they bring in after that. He'll wait if he has to, because it's Will. That's all there is to it. This is enough, even if he doesn't get to also have it on paper. Yet.

    Summary

    Will takes a step couple steps towards Mike, narrowing his eyes. "Yes, Michael. I am being serious. Act like a fucking man."

    This causes Mike to sit back a little bit, expression twisting into something Will can't recognize quite yet. His eyebrows raise slightly, taking in the angry man standing in front of him.

    They're both quiet for a moment, Will's chest heaving slightly as Mike looks up at him with half-lidded eyes. Will hates how quickly he can feel his anger shifting into something dangerous and familiar. "Yeah?" Mike breathes out. "You want me to act like a man, William?"

    or

    Mike loves when Will addresses him by his full name. Maybe a little too much.

    Summary

    Mike pushes into his hands, but Will keeps him still.

    "Ask again," he says. Because he's greedy, and he wants Mike to want him.

    He stares at Will's mouth. "Please."

    "Again."

    El is gone.

    Will tries to figure out how to move on in New York, and Mike follows him. Their apartment is haunted not by ghosts, but by the two of them.

    Or: Catastrophically traumatized boys cling to each other and accidentally figure out how to be close—too close—while moving through their grief.

    Or:

    Mike and Will start talking dirty to each other for fun. What they don't consider is that it would accidentally turn them on.
