Summary
It all started with a box of chocolates placed in his locker on February 14.
At the tender age of seventeen, never once had he been confessed to or given a gift of any sort— he didn’t count his mom, and Ivan, who only gave back what he stole from Till.
All good things must come to an end, or so the saying goes. Well, apparently bad things, too, because for the first time ever in his life, he might have a secret admirer. He grabbed the box to take a closer look and see if the mysterious person had left their name.No tags. No love letters. No names.
Or: Till is gifted chocolates on Valentine’s Day, and Ivan pretends he doesn’t know the identity of the secret admirer.

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.

Summary
If someone told Steve a few years ago that he would regularly lift Eddie Munson into his arms, he would have advised the poor soul to take a long vacation at Pennhurst.
But here he is, holding Eddie against the humming fridge in his dark kitchen, fingers digging into the flesh of his thighs, with not a single inch of space between their bodies, Eddie's wide, dark eyes fixed on his.
"Two is a coincidence..." Eddie mutters, licking his lips, letting the rest of the sentence dwindle out as Steve's eyes fall shut.
OR: Eddie has a nasty bruise from a previous hookup accident, and Steve gets the itch to prove that he could easily lift Eddie up and would never let him fall.
