Summary
“You do like it,” Mike teases. “I can tell.”
“Obviously,” Will huffs. “You know what I like.”
Mike does. What a surreal feeling it is, to be the one who knows what Will likes. What makes him blush, or shy away. What turns him on. To be the only one who knows these things.
“Yeah,” Mike says softly. “I know.”

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.

"And what does God do?" The Reverend leans forward, gripping the edges of the pulpit. One hand raised towards the crowd, others reaching forward with pained expressions, lips moving in urgent whispers—pleading, begging, some of them crying.
Mike watches them pray for salvation.
They can’t all be saved.
