   Summary

   Mike was pulling away from everyone and everything these days, when all he really needed was for someone to pull him right back in. Not that he'd ever say that out loud, though.

    

   Or: a fic where we actually get to see and explore Mike's feelings because the Duffers did my boy dirty (also, Byler will be canon in this one, js be patient😁)
