Summary
"Tell me a secret?"
Mike asks, like he's come to do every day, late at night, when the darkness can swallow the guilt and the regret rushing out of their hearts, when their sides press together, the floor long forgotten, ever since the first Will, please, come up here.
Will is a terrible person.
I'm in love with you. I'm having visions. I'm in love with you. I'm not really having nightmares, Vecna is tempting me with a version of you that loves me back. I'm in love with you.
"I think my death is the easiest solution to everything. The Upside Down will die with me."
Will can hear Mike swallow next to him.
"Will, I would let the world burn down to ashes if it meant keeping you in it."
or
They're back in Hawkins, everything is the way it's always been, except - yeah, it's still the middle of an apocalypse, Will is having nosebleeds and Mike would sacrifice the world for his best friend but is still losing him.

Summary
“Go to bed, Mike,” Will said flatly, his cheeks burning.
“Mmkay,” Mike mumbled, immediately reaching for Will’s blanket.
“In your room.”
Mike pouted, his brown eyes wide and doe-like. “Can I sleep in here? Pretty please? Just one night.”
“Why?” Will asked.
“'Cause your bed is comfy,” Mike slurred his words. “And…‘cause I missed you.”
OR: Mike ends up sleeping in Will’s bed every time he goes on a date.

Summary
Mike thinks it all started the day the Byers moved into their house.
Having sold their house in Hawkins a year and a half prior and moved to California, when they came back, and the town got put in lockdown, they didn’t have a place to go.
Mike had kindly offered up their place during dinner.

The 18-month gap between s4 and s5 told from Mike's POV with minor other POV's as the story progresses. The gap has been lengthened to encapsulate more time passing. They start at 16, but by chapter 6 they're 17 1/2 with them turning 18 chapter 32/34.

Steve Harrington is to Mike what Robin is to Will
Season 5 Rewrite to follow WHILE THIS IS A COMPLETE WORK, THE SEASON 5 REWRITE IS A WIP
Everything is tagged appropriately. If you choose to read, that is your prerogative. No smut occurs until chapter 36.
