   Summary

   "You're not hearing me, Will," Mike said, his heart feeling like it was going to thud out of his ears. "Fuck, what the hell is wrong with you? You - you erased my memories, made me forget you, and now you want me to act like nothing between us is wrong? Like it's okay?"

   Will looked like he'd been shot, and Mike didn't know whether to punch him or kiss him.

   "Mike," Will said weakly. "I'm - I'm sorry."

   "Sorry doesn't cut it!" Mike shouted. "You made me fall in love with you over and over again and all you have to say is sorry? Sorry? Well, fuck you! Fuck you, William Byers, fuck!"

   ***

   There was something to be said about the new boy at Mike's high school who looked like ghosts hung around just behind his shoulder and who acted like Mike was the bane of his existence.

   Too bad Mike always had a thing for pretty boys that hated him.
