   Summary

   An accident leaves Mike without four years of memories. He wakes up convinced that it's 1989, that Bush is the new President, and that his time at college in Boston has only just begun.

   But it's 1994. There's a new President. He lives in New York.

   And somehow, he shares an apartment with Will Byers.

   Or: An Amnesia AU.
