Summary
A series of poems that Mike Wheeler has written over the years describing how he feels in regards to relationships, bravery, and love.
Yes, this is mainly Byler-Centric but also has references to Mileven
You can interpret the metaphors how you'd like but I'm happy to explain the ways in which I intended them!
This was honestly just an excuse for me to work on my poetry, hope you enjoy!

Summary
this was my prediction for a byler scene if it happened in the finale. unfortunately all we got was "friends, no thanks... best friends!" so there's that. but i hope someone can find solace in this and yes, I BELIEVE this was the true ending and mike and will got together. this was also my first time writing a kiss scene so please dont judge if its rlly bad- i wrote this in 30 minutes fueled by pure byler adrenaline.

Summary
Mike thinks it all started the day the Byers moved into their house.
Having sold their house in Hawkins a year and a half prior and moved to California, when they came back, and the town got put in lockdown, they didn’t have a place to go.
Mike had kindly offered up their place during dinner.

The 18-month gap between s4 and s5 told from Mike's POV with minor other POV's as the story progresses. The gap has been lengthened to encapsulate more time passing. They start at 16, but by chapter 6 they're 17 1/2 with them turning 18 chapter 32/34.

Steve Harrington is to Mike what Robin is to Will

Summary
Mike is waiting for Will in the basement, a look of suspicious, nervous excitement on his face. He cleared the table and laid out upon it are two card games.
"Now, I know you’ll resist," Mike blurts out, stepping toward him. "But I think this will be good. For both of us! For when we... you know,” Mike trails off, “When we get partners.”
Will scoffs, stepping closer to inspect the titles.
Spill or Sip and Truth, Dare, or Strip.
Or: Mike suggests a spicy card game to help Will loosen up before college. It works a little too well, and suddenly they’re gambling with unresolved feelings, and clothes, that were meant to stay in place.

Summary
“You’re insane! I can’t just write something as obvious as that. What if he figures out it’s me?”
”Um, then you get a super-cute boyfriend who you’ve been in love with for, like, as long as you’ve known him?” Vickie blinked at him, arms crossed over her lanyard. “I don’t understand the issue, why don’t you just… tell him?”
”The issue is that he could hear me, Vick.” Mike emphasised. “He could hear me, and realise I’m actually a loser, and ride away on the back of that dumb jock’s motorcycle-”
“C’mon, Mike,” Vickie interrupted his rambling with a teasing sing-song tone, bunny teeth glinting past her pink lips. “Valentines is a day for the brave. Besides, what’s the worst that could happen?”
Or, four times Mike Wheeler sends the cute art teacher a candy-gram for Valentine’s Day, and the one time he doesn’t need to.

Summary
Lucas snorted, glancing at Mike out of the corner of his eyes, “You’re saying William Byers is a more complicated subject for you than your parents' sudden divorce?”
“Unironically, yes,” grumbled Mike.
“Dude.”
Mike sighed, looking at the ceiling. “I know, Lucas, okay? I know.”
Or; Karen leaves Ted and subsequently kickstarts Mike's journey to reclaim his bravery.
