    Summary

    “Will Byers?”

    Will glances around, as if there is another Will Byers in their vicinity. He manages a small smile. “Yeah, it’s- uh. It’s me.”

    Mike rushes forward, and all he can think is holy shit, Will is alive, as he’s throwing his arms around the other boy and tugging him in for a crushing hug. It isn’t until Will is secure, nestled–maybe a bit stiffly–in his arms, that Mike starts crying.

    “I thought you were dead,” Mike murmurs, muffled by Will’s jacket. He sniffles. “I thought- we- they told us you were dead.”

    Or, Will was never found in S1, but survives in the Upside Down until 1987 due to his powers and connection with Vecna. Cue Mike, an ill-timed trip to the Upside Down, and a lot of feelings.

    Summary

    “Mike ,” she hisses , “shut up. Can’t you see Will’s about to tell us about the date he had with his boyfriend ? He is probably crying because they had a fight. Tell us, Will. It will be okay , I promise.”

    “What ?” Mike yells. at the same time as Will gasps “You knew ?”

    Mike turns his head so fast there’s an audible noise and looks at him , astonished , shocked - all the ways that he can think of to describe the way that he’s absolutely , utterly and completely flabbergasted.

    Or : 5 times Will tries to go on a date and Mike ruins it by being there and 1 time Will realises the date is being ruined by his not being there.

    Ft : a meddlesome Max & Lucas , a very jealous Mike and a Will who just wants to get over his straight best friend.

    Too bad he can’t.

    Summary

    For the first time, being wanted back doesn’t feel like a fantasy he's invented to torture himself. Someone will want him; that much is practically a given. The realization has crept up on him slowly over the past few months, in subtle glances from strangers and knowing smiles from other omegas in the hall.

    He is, apparently, desirable.

    But, if that’s true, and it’s not ridiculous to imagine someone actually wanting him, then why has he been acting like his only option is to sit around and hope Mike trips over the realization himself?

    Mike is many wonderful things, after all, but observant is not one of them.

    After he presents, Will decides he’s done waiting for Mike to figure things out on his own. It’s time to take matters into his own hands, for once.

    Summary

    Alpha Mike/ Omega Will 18mo + ST5 rewrite (Updated Summary)

    It's in this moment, where Will has to sit to support the weakness in his limbs and hold back tears of relief, that he knows he's truly screwed.
    And so is Mike.

    They're all in danger, they always have been, but Mike has a target on his back that he has no idea about. He doesn't know.
    Vecna knows everything. He knows how much Mike means to him and it's not a question of if but when and how something is going to happen. Will doesn't know how to convey to him the danger he's in. The danger that Will has put him in by virtue of caring too much in the wrong way.
    Unfortunately, Will doesn't get the privilege of having an internal weakness. His biggest weakness is walking and talking and reckless and ridiculous and Vecna would possess Will to kill him just for the joy of breaking Will.

    “I don’t want to hurt you,” he admits in a low voice. It feels like a dirty confession.
    “You won’t," Mike says immediately, almost affronted, and Will wants to cry harder. "Why would you-”

    He's going to throw up. He's going to scream. Neither are going to help, so with tears in his eyes, he decides he won't let Vecna have this.

    Summary

    His eyes widen as he takes him in. Mike. He almost couldn’t believe it was him at all.

    “Stare a little harder, would you?” Mike said hoarsely, breaking the silence.

    “Sorry,” Will breathed, and then shook himself out of… whatever he was doing; ogling, oh god. He was ogling Mike. “I didn’t mean to—you’re just, you look different.”

    When Will Byers' powers come to light, Will and Mike are sent on a world-shifting adventure across universes that slowly serve to answer for that yawning chasm of lies and uncertainties between them. It may also, simulataneously, lead them straight to the salvation that they've all been waiting for, for far too long:

    Purging their lives of the Upside Down, finally, once and for all.
