    Summary

    Inspired by the new series Heated Rivalry but with a twist, this grounded Stranger Things AU follows Mike Wheeler during his final year of high school in Hawkins. One accidental glance through a window is enough for Mike to fall first-while Will Byers decides he can't stand him.

    What begins as instant dislike turns into rivalry, tension, and a slow-burn enemies-to-lovers story where Will falls harder than anyone expects.
    Featuring Byler (endgame), Bychance, lumax, Ronance, Stonahton, Dustin&suzie, and Jopper. Also tags will be added throughout the fic :)
