Summary
After everything he survived in the Upside Down, Will Byers was already different. According to Dr. Owens, the trauma twisted more than just his memories — it disrupted his hormones, forcing him to present far earlier than anyone else in his grade. And not just early.
He presented as an omega.
As if that wasn’t overwhelming enough, Will has been in love with his best friend, Mike Wheeler, since they were thirteen. A secret he’s carried quietly, painfully — especially now that Mike is dating his sister, Will knows how wrong it feels. He knows Mike doesn’t feel the same way. He knows he should let it go.
He just… can’t.
Meanwhile, Dustin is stuck in his own hopeless situation — head over heels for someone he can’t have. Two best friends, both in love with people who are already taken, both terrified of ruining the only friendships that matter most.
So they make a deal.
If they can’t have the ones they love, they’ll fake date each other instead. A harmless distraction. A temporary solution. A way to convince everyone — and maybe themselves — that they’re moving on.
The plan is simple: pretend until the feelings fade.
The problem?
Pretending has a way of making everything messier.- Language:

Summary
Will Byers has spent most of his life on the sidelines.
Ever since he and his twin sister, Jane, presented as a rare male omega and female alpha, Will has lived his days inside a carefully crafted glass prison. In search of better medical care and more open-minded values, Joyce and Jim—their mother and stepfather—moved the entire family to Lenora, California.
Without the familiar bounds of Hawkins and the pack he and Jane grew up with, Will has been drifting. Over the years, the distance between him and his old friends has grown wider and wider, as he continues to struggle with his identity in a world that holds a stubborn, one-sided view of omegas.
With that struggle comes an unfortunate reality: even after four long years of dating, Will still can’t stop pining after his sister’s boyfriend—his childhood best friend—Mike Wheeler.
By now, Will should be used to the feeling of being second best. He isn’t.
When his frustration at feeling stuck in one place finally reaches its breaking point, he decides it’s time to give up and move on.In response, something stirs.
Fanfic title inspired by Second Best by The Last Dinner Party.
