    Summary

    “Oh, God, you two are so oblivious,” Jonathan rolls his eyes. “I don't know how you two can exist next to each other without knowing there's something going on. Everyone knows.”

    “Oh,” Mike whispers. That definitely wasn't in all the scenarios he thought about. “And are you- do you, um, have something against- that?”

    “You two liking boys or you two liking each other?” Jonathan smirks.

    or:
    Mike Wheeler can't live without Will Byers, but he can't stop losing him into the jaws of the apocalypse.

    Summary

    “Mike,” Will exhaled, still smiling though he’d gained a certain hardness to his voice. “You know I made this, right?”

    “Well yeah, obviously.” Mike laughed, not yet feeling the weight of Will’s tone. “Who else? You’ve seen Dustin’s art.”

    He shook his head. “You’re not understanding. I made it. It was all me.”

    “Oh.” The gears of Mike’s brain were finally turning, ten years all too late.

    Summary

    Eighteen months later, Mike sat on Will’s bed, staring at his best friend’s graduation gown.  

    “It’s just so… orange,” Will made a face at the fabric in his hands. “I mean, does that make sense to you at all? Orange?” 

    Mike shrugged, grabbing the matching cap and placing it on Will’s head with a grin. Will’s hair went flat over his eyes. “I dunno, graduate,” Mike teased, flicking the tassel. 

    Will stuck out his tongue. “I still wish they'd stuck with green, like Jonathan and Nancy got. At least I'd look okay in green.” His voice had a whine to it, and Mike held back a snicker.

    “I’m sure you look just as good in orange,” Mike said seriously.

    Will shook his head, turning away. "Right."

    Mike’s eyes lingered on the curve of Will's cheek, the flutter of his lash, the place where his t-shirt had been left untucked from his cuffed blue jeans. He was fascinated by the way Will rested his weight on one leg, his left foot hooked behind his right ankle. His stupid yellow socks.  

    Mike's stomach plummeted.

    mike's conversation with jane in the void goes a little differently.

    the night before graduation, a guilt-stricken mike confides in will at the cabin.

    Will and Mike have a chance to talk on their way to the top of the radio tower.
