Summary
Mike fought to stay awake, because he had never felt the sensation of death, so he didn’t know if this would be the end. He didn’t know if his last moments were spent bathing in the past, and the past coming back to embrace him. He wasn’t even sure if it was real at all, or if he was just hallucinating the desires he’d felt since he was a child. All he could feel, as his vision turned black and consciousness slipped away, was what felt like a press of lips against his, a final warmth, a kiss goodbye as he ventured into the unknown. He was afraid, but even if it wasn’t real, the kiss, filled with home, made him feel safe.
Mike, a soldier for his kingdom, finds himself on death's doorstep after a fatal injury. In his final moments, he is greeted by a boy from his past that he never thought he'd see again.

Summary
“I think I’ll tell her tonight,” He whispered. It was a truth. He wouldn’t back down. He wouldn’t chicken out. He really was going to tell her.
“Really?” Robin asked. Will wasn’t looking at her, but he could hear the smile in her voice.
“I know it’s soon, but… I feel ready,” Will declared, a bit louder this time.
“I’m proud of you.”
Will smiled. He was proud of himself too.
After a comforting conversation with Robin, Will decides to tell Joyce how he really feels.

Summary
“When I was trying to find Will, I ended up at your house by accident since you’re so close by, and I… I saw you take your shirt off, and…” Jonathan couldn’t finish his sentence, and he looked up at Steve anxiously to see his facial expression. Steve was deep in thought, trying to sort everything out in his head.
“So it was never her?” He asked after a few seconds, and Jonathan shrugged.
“It’s not like I never thought about her… it’s just—” Jonathan shook his head, pausing for a moment to close his eyes. “My eyes were more drawn to you.”
Steve still has a lot of questions about why Jonathan took pictures of him and Nancy on the night of the party. Jonathan is very reluctant to answer.

Summary
“Are you flirting with me, Harrington?” Jonathan spluttered, trying to cover up the flusteredness in his voice with something more confident, but in the end it just came out nervous. He grinned to try and play it off as a joke, and Steve's lips crinkled into a sly smile that immediately drew Jonathan’s gaze.
“Do you want me to be flirting with you, Byers?”
It had been a while since Steve, Robin, Nancy, and Jonathan had began meeting up monthly, but every hangout was fun. Whether it be rekindling old flames or sparking new ones, some closer friendships grow into something more.

we can't say what we've seen (and we're not little children) by fivecenturiesverse

Summary
Erica can still feel his hands on her where he'd grabbed her, she doesn't know what to do about it, who to speak to. Everyone seems so okay with everything, like they can't even remember what happened. Steve has those scars, those memories printed on his skin, and he seems perfectly fine. Erica should be fine too, she's not a kid any more, and she doesn't even have scars.
Erica doesn’t know what to do. If she talks to Lucas, he’ll start acting like she’s a kid again and she’s not, she’s older now than when Lucas got involved. She’s old enough not to need help and she’s not going to ask just because she’s a girl and can’t deal with it. Lucas dealt with it, she’ll deal with it.
So she’s just going to watch. Watch Max who almost died but seems fine. Lucas who fought Jason and seems fine. Pretends she doesn’t feel the phantom, nameless hands grabbing her, doesn’t feel the short blades of grass under her fingers as she scrabbled, feel his hot breath on the back of her neck like she was prey. Pretends there’s none of that, because it shouldn’t matter. She’s Erica Sinclair — can’t spell America without Erica — and she’s going to be just fine.

Summary
“There’s no room left for me to sign,” he says, trying not to pout.
“Don’t pout,” Max says, tangling her free hand with his. Her face is flushed with laughter, hair half-tied in a messy braid (Robin’s work, ostensibly), and half-spilling around her shoulders, a sun-strand halo. “You can just—I don’t know, you can write over whatever Eddie’s doing.”
“Hey.” Eddie draws a hand over his heart, eyes wide with mock offense. “I put my blood, sweat, and tears into drawing this masterpiece for you, Red.”
“I don’t know if I’d go that far,” Robin says, idly adding spots to a ladybug. “It’s, well. It’s a piece, for sure.”

Summary
“... Will.”
“Okay, sure, yeah. What about him?”
“I’m a bad friend.” Mike admitted, breathing it out like a vomited confession, like something he was desperate to be rid of.
“Did something happen?” Steve asked.
“Yes.” He paused. “Well, no. It’s— it’s more like… more like… he got a boyfriend.” Mike huffed out a breath.
“I know.” Steve agreed slowly, brows raised. “Carlton. Will, Robin and I met up a while back and he introduced us. Seems like a good kid. What about him?”
Mike felt like a fucking idiot.
Of course Steve didn’t get it. Why would Steve get it?
“I… I just…” How was Mike even meant to begin to talk about this? “It’s driving me crazy, man. I hate the guy.”
OR -
Mike spirals about his feelings, gets in his car, and somehow ends up going to Steve Harrington for help. He gets a much-needed pep talk and finally goes after what he wants.

Summary
“Max is a girl on our school’s softball team,” Lucas explains, since Mike’s statement is severely lacking. “Jane wants to woo her, so we're helping her learn how to play before the tryouts.”
Dustin gestures at the two of them, as if to say: there you have it.
Jane isn’t quite sure what “it” is supposed to be- but judging by the expression on Steve’s face, he doesn’t seem to think that they have much of anything. She tries to picture what they must look like; the five of them, with their school backpacks, silly graphic T-shirts, and hand-me-down flannels. Not like a promising softball team, certainly.
“Thoughts?” Dustin prompts.
“And prayers,” says Steve.
Jane has a crush, and the boys try their very best to act as her wingmen.
