    Summary

    "So… what now?"
    "Your move, mate," Newt said as he leaned back slightly, looking entirely too smug. "I’m up for… well, anything."
    "Anything?" Thomas repeated, wary but unable to stop his gaze from trailing—just for a second—to Newt’s lips, curved into that infuriating grin. He wasn’t sure what this game was actually about, but he had the distinct feeling he was already losing it.
    "Anything," Newt said, his smirk deepening.
    Thomas frowned, suddenly very interested in anything that wasn’t Newt’s face. His gaze flitted over the shelves, the floor—anywhere but him. “What do people usually do in here?”
    Newt snorted. “Wouldn’t know. Don’t usually play these kinds of games.”

    or: Seven Minutes in Heaven—except Thomas doesn’t quite get the point of the game, and, honestly, he’s already losing interest. Luckily, Newt has a way of keeping him entertained.

    Summary

    Mike hates Valentine’s Day. It was fun as kids, when teachers would make every student decorate a little shoe box with pink and red heart stickers, that by the end of the day would be filled with cheesy Valentines and sweets.

    But this isn’t kindergarten anymore— there are no school-enforced rules that his classmates have to give him a Valentine. He has to earn them. And he hasn’t.

    ———

    Mike is (not) upset that he’s the only one of his friends that hasn’t received a Valentine. That is, until something just so happens to fall out of his locker the next day.

    Summary

    “So… how did you know you liked boys?” Mike randomly asks Will one afternoon.

    “How did I what?” Will swivels his head toward Mike, who’s looking back at him expectantly over the top of his comic book. He’s got on that thinking-face he does— the one that tells Will that Mike has definitely been staring at him for the past ten minutes minimum, trying to wrap his brain around some idea or another, like he’s working out a particularly difficult puzzle.

    “Like, what do you like about them? Oh, come on, don’t look at me like that,” he complains, and Will assumes he must be making a face somewhere between skeptical and bewildered. “We never talk about it. Why is it boys for you?”

    Mike wants to know why Will likes boys— in a completely straight, heterosexual way.

    Summary

    "I want you to play with me," he said to her, almost childlike, she hated not having the guts to hang up, he was just further creeping her out, "Don't you want to play with me Chrissy?"

    Her jaw made an audible snap when she forced it closed after hearing her name come from the caller's mouth, she forced her gasp back down her throat, not wanting him to know just how scared she was that he knew her name.

    Her breathing came out choppy as she hurried to the windows to peak out the curtains, she was positive he wasn't in her house, there's no way he could be, but she wasn't so positive that he wasn't outside her house. She didn't respond to him after hearing her name, he found amusement in that if his laugh was anything to go by.

    "Peek-a-Boo, I see you Chrissy," he teased her with another laugh that made her flinch, "Can you see me?" He taunted.

    Stranger Things Crossed Over With Scream (1996).

    Featuring Eleven as Sydney and both Will and Mike as a mixture of Billy and Stu.
