Summary
Will’s not supposed to be hiding in corners, forcing a fake smile when Mike asks him if he’s okay. He’s not supposed to brush off insults like they're jokes. He’s not supposed to vanish for six hours during a school day, leaving Mike feeling like he’s slipping away all over again.
Whoever said that beating Vecna’s going to fix Hawkins’ problems, Will’s problems, Mike’s problems—they deserve an earful. They deserve to feel this weird, hollow dissatisfaction chewing away at their chests.
aka mike begs will to escape their small town after too many run-ins with homophobic small-town bs. he knows will's meant to find himself elsewhere, but he never expects to find an answer to the age-old question of his own fate. prom, gay bars, sleazy hotels, train stations, two lesbians and their not-so-legal marriage - they aren't the traditional sources of wisdom, but he can't complain.

Summary
The Wheelers and the Byers have been living together for eight months. Mike and Will have been dating for two of them.
Will figures keeping their relationship quiet should be simple enough. After all, he kept his feelings for Mike hidden for years on end—with Jonathan the only person to realize something was going on. But in the Wheeler household, as it turns out, secrets aren’t so easy to keep.

Summary
After a misunderstanding leaves Mike and Will barely speaking, the group reunites for a summer in the middle of nowhere. As summer draws to a close and old wounds resurface, Mike finds himself burning up like a falling star.
"Your impossible." Will laughs, hiding his face in his shoulder, pink in the cheeks.
"And your addicted to impossible things apparently" Mike says low, grinning wickedly all sharp features and teasing eyes.Bookmarked by forestwhereidie

Summary
It’s been seven years since Will Byers vanished from Hawkins for the second time; seven years since he picked up his life, moved across the globe, and finally settled. He had found himself in a small town outside of Dublin with no desire to be anyplace else. He was happy. Ireland was great — beautiful sights, decent weather, and it was far. So, so far.
But when past feelings bubble from under the surface and start to poison his creative endeavors, he doesn’t think things could get any worse.
Seeing Mike Wheeler at his local grocery store quickly proves him wrong.
OR: Running away and the reunion of a lifetime.
