Summary
“Daddy, wake up,” she pleaded. “You’re having a bad dream. Please wake up.”
Will’s head turned then, slowly, and it was hard for Rose to understand how he still couldn’t actually see her, when it felt like he was staring straight through her eyes and directly to the back of her skull. “Rose,” he rasped, and her blood crystallized in her veins. This was not her father’s honey-sweet voice. It sounded like gravel running through a rock tumbler. And he never, ever called her just Rose, unless she was in big trouble. “You need to run. NOW.”
--------------------
Five-year-old Rose Maldonado is not afraid of anything. Until one night in early November when she stumbles upon her sleepwalking father having a horrible nightmare, and her parents realize it might be time to start telling their daughter the truth about what happened to them back in November 1983.
(ft. an extensive flashback of elmike platonic besties addressing the total bs final battle in a way that turns it into byler proof, because screw the duffers!!!!! you're in MY house now!!!!!!!!!)

Summary
“Shut the fuck up.”, Will whispers because he can’t, he just can’t deal with Mike’s confusing ass right now. The soft light is illuminating Mike’s features, jaw carved out so perfectly, cheekbones high, eyes so dark Will feels like they’re swallowing him. “You are, too.”, he adds.
“Prettier than your lame boyfriend?”, Mike ask, voice somehow careful and urgent at the same time.
“Mike…” Will shivers a little, not sure what to do with himself. It’s ridiculous for Mike to actually believe Will has a boyfriend; if that were the case, he would’ve never stepped a foot into this bed. But somehow, Mike’s need to come out on top compared to the guy he is supposedly dating makes Will break out in goosebumps all over.
“That’s not a no.”, Mike remarks.
“That’s not a no.”, Will whispers, scared to move at all and break the moment.
A soft grin plays at the corner of Mike’s mouth, “Oh, yeah?”
“Yeah.”, Will nods, “But you knew that already.”

Summary
“No. No, that can’t be right.”
“You don’t know anything about yourself, why is this so hard to believe?”
“Because I’m gay.”
Will freezes.
Mike is confused. He doesn’t know what he’s talking about. He barely knows his own name.
“Mike, you’re not gay.”
