    Summary

    A month in a half after the events of "My Will Is Good," Mike and Will spend a weekend in Montauk, get closer than ever, and navigate life as a couple. Mike grapples with the idea of coming out and what it means to be gay in the 90s.

    Summary

    "Mike could reason a lot away.

    He'd been having nightmares since the day Will went missing, and headaches and even nosebleeds were symptoms of sleep deprivation and stress, both of which weren't exactly uncommon occurrences in his life. He hadn't heard any clock, and he thinks he'd know if he'd been hunted by a monster from another dimension - probably.
    But Mike was also not a complete idiot - usually - and he was good at recognising patterns.

    Most damming of all, all of this had stopped practically the second he left Hawkins.

    This fucking town."

    Aka my rewrite of season five, featuring Mike being vecna'd and very slowburn very angsty Byler.

    How long will it take Mike to tell someone he is being hunted and psychologically tortured by an interdimensional monster?
    Longer than you'd think.

    Summary

    It’s 8.56am, which means Will’s alarm will go off in 4 minutes. He’ll wake up, then text Mike to let him know his pre-heat has started, and Mike will let him know he’s on his way. He knows this, because he has turned looking after Will Byers into an art form - a carefully choreographed dance of adoration and tending.

    Right on schedule, his screen lights up with a notification.


    Mike might not look like an alpha, but he's doing his best to act like one.

    Summary

    “You’re not coming this summer. I haven’t seen you in a year and a half and I know it’s-it’s pathetic—“

    “It’s not pathetic,” Will interjects quickly, shaking his head, “It’s not—“

    “It is, Will,” he hears Mike’s voice break over another hitched breath, “I know you’re… I just want you to be happy. I never want you to come back to Hawkins, but I’m fucking selfish. I’m so selfish, and I’m sorry.”

    Will lets the tears spill over and he lets that want that’s always itching under his skin show itself.

    “My whole life I’ve missed you every second you’ve been away from me,” Will confesses quietly into the receiver.

    If you’re pathetic, I’m wretched.

     

    -

     

    Not long after the final battle, Mike and Will were inseparable– until Will moved out to New York.

    Despite the weekly calls and the freedom of living their lives without terror, there’s no world in which they could last so long apart without it feeling like torture.

    Will gets a call, and three days later, Mike is at his doorstep.

    It only takes a day for them to fall back together again.
