    Summary

    It’s the summer of 1989 when Mike Wheeler decides that he’s in desperate need of a new direction, or at the very least, a job. But he never thought it would be slinging ice cream at the revamped Scoops Ahoy with his most annoying friend, Max Mayfield.

    Mike spends his summer in the most ridiculous uniform he’s ever seen, while the Indiana heat and some stupid bet slowly unfurls all the things he’s been desperately trying to hide from. The biggest one of them being Will Byers.

    Summary

    Will loved ordinary things, an uneventful existence was something he craved. Sadly, when Mike Wheeler walks into his life, Will’s easy going path snaps right in half. A passion he could never imagine overtaking his whole being.

    It was too bad their friend groups hated each other and his sister had a huge crush on the musician. Off limits.

    Fantastic.
