Summary
After an exhausting January workday, Mike comes home to face yet another tense evening in a life that feels stuck and repetitive. His teenage son, Miles, asks to talk with him. Mike begins telling Miles a carefully edited version of his past—about growing up in Hawkins, losing his best friend Will for a time, loving Eleven, surviving disasters, and enduring deep loss. As he recounts these memories, it becomes clear that Mike has spent his life suppressing unresolved grief, guilt, and feelings he never fully confronted, including his complicated love for Will and the feeling of fear of leaving everything behind.

Summary
He didn’t really understand why someone would want to go to a cemetery for a birthday party, but hey, maybe Will was a bit of a weird kid.
“Hey Will.” Mike called, his voice gentler than he had ever heard it.
He whipped his head around, scanning the rows for another figure, desperately looking for Will. It didn’t really click until Mike stepped forward and knelt beside a grave, placing his perfectly imperfect cake in front of a well-kept headstone.
Oh.
Will Byers is dead.
So how the hell did he end up stuck haunting Mike Wheeler's basement?

Summary
“You should go back to sleep”, Mike mutters, but Will’s eyes are already flying over his face, and he is probably taking in the embarrassing number of tears, and the sweaty hair sticking onto his forehead and—
“You’re bleeding”, Will whispers, and then, as if the realization strikes just now as he says it out loud, his voice increases in volume, but shakes harder all the more, “Mike, there’s— there’s blood pouring from your mouth.”
Mike would have been perfectly content with never exploring the depth of his repressed feelings, if it wasn't for the deadly flowers blooming in his lungs.

Summary
Will attends a baseball game with his friends and struggles with jealousy over the coworker Mike has been talking to a lot lately. But when the Kiss Cam highlights Mike and their coworker, Mike doesn't kiss her. He kisses Will.
Update: I have since started posting chapters of an extended version of this fic. It is not completed, but I will be posting chapters regularly. I start it back to when Will moves after losing his job.
