    Summary

    Will raises his eyebrows. “Is that why you came in here?” he repeats, looking back down at the blue flannel. “To ask me about the weather in Lenora?”

    “Kind of,” Mike says, and then, “well no, not about the weather specifically. I just– I wanted to talk to you.”

    “Oh.” And Will looks a lot more surprised at this, actually, than the idea that Mike might have just wanted to come to his room to make small talk about unseasonably frigid California winters. “Okay. What about?”

    “Anything.” The response is embarrassingly immediate. “Everything. I don’t know. I missed you.”

    Hawkins, 1986. The world is ending, there are too many people in Mike's house, and to top it all off, he and Will have some things to talk through.

    Summary

    Love is a funny thing. It’s standing with a girl in a desert after a crippling battle and wondering how am I going to tell her? It’s sitting next to a boy in a van while he lies to you and thinking oh, how am I going to tell him?

    Mike’s not sure which is harder - telling someone you don’t love them or telling someone that you do. He supposes it depends on selfishness; if it's worse to break someone else’s heart or to offer your own up to be shattered.

    He supposes he’s going to find out soon enough.

    Or: the one with a boy made of too much fear and too little hope and, just maybe, enough love to make it all worth it anyway.

    Summary

    Mike? Dustin pressed the radio to his ear, as if that could magically make him understand. What could Mike and Will possibly need a private channel for? He’d been about to cut in to ask, and to announce his presence, but Will spoke again before he could.
    “How do you know mine looks awesome?” he countered, his voice sharp against Dustin’s ear. “You haven’t seen me yet. Over.”
    “You always look awesome,” Mike had said without missing a beat, and vaguely, Dustin started wondering if maybe he shouldn’t be listening to this.

    Dustin accidentally switches onto a private radio channel, and hears some things he probably shouldn't have.

    Summary

    Mike breathes out sharply, sinking to his knees in front of Will without conscious thought. Every bone in his body is turning to jelly, because Will is here, but he's also- not. His form is made up of the same dusty gold that fills the air around him, flaking off him and dancing around. Mike wants to reach out and catch the light in his palm. Will looks not entirely solid, like this is some poor imitation of him rendered in light particles, like his physical form is somewhere else, and for a horrible moment Mike thinks that Will is a ghost after all. That this is an illusion, brought about by Mike's hopeless yearning. If it weren't for the pebbles digging sharply into his legs as he knees on the ground and the crisp chill of the spring air on his face, Mike would be sure he was dreaming, but he doesn't think he could dream up something so simultaneously as magical and horrifying as the specter of his maybe-dead friend hovering before him.

    "Will," he whispers, reaching out until his fingers are centimeters from Will's arm, and Will's eyes fly open.

    on march 29th, 1986, will byers vanishes for a second time. 366 days later, he reappears.
