Summary
“What?” Mike asked. He had heard her the first time. He just didn’t want to talk about it.
“Do you think he’ll like me?” Max said even quieter than the first time.
Mike’s chest hurt at the thought of Max’s dad turning her away. Then it hurt more at the thought of him welcoming her in, pulling her away from Hawkings.

Summary
"Mike could reason a lot away.
He'd been having nightmares since the day Will went missing, and headaches and even nosebleeds were symptoms of sleep deprivation and stress, both of which weren't exactly uncommon occurrences in his life. He hadn't heard any clock, and he thinks he'd know if he'd been hunted by a monster from another dimension - probably.
But Mike was also not a complete idiot - usually - and he was good at recognising patterns.Most damming of all, all of this had stopped practically the second he left Hawkins.
This fucking town."
Aka my rewrite of season five, featuring Mike being vecna'd and very slowburn very angsty Byler.
How long will it take Mike to tell someone he is being hunted and psychologically tortured by an interdimensional monster?
Longer than you'd think.- Language:
