    Summary

    Mike swears he can hear a clock ticking, in tune to the beat of his heart, making his eardrums pulse. He wonders if it’s just his subconscious mind taunting him because he is very, very late to school.

    And it’s all Will’s fault.

    Coercing him to the backseat of the car before they could enter the school building. Batting his eyelashes at him innocently like butter wouldn’t melt in his mouth.

    OR

    Mike Wheeler has never been happier. He has the best boyfriend in the world and the best set of friends anyone could ask for. He's popular, gets invited to parties, and he's STILL in the honeymoon phase of his relationship. He doesn't think his life could get any better. But then why does something feel...off?

    Summary

    Mike lets out a frustrated groan and knocks his head back against the seat—like Hopper’s the one being cryptic here.

    Mike’s voice cracks slightly when he repeats, “He hurt Will.” More urgent this time. More desperate.

    “Okay. I get that,” Hopper says slowly. “But it doesn’t explain why—”

    Mike cuts him off, sharp. “If Will didn’t tell you, then I’m not telling you.”

    -

    When Hopper gets a call about that damn Wheeler kid, he's pissed. Until he realizes what exactly he's dealing with.

    Summary

    It’s winter in Hawkins, and Mike and Will aren’t speaking anymore, despite living under the same roof. Will is avoidant and spends most days in the basement, and Mike has never felt so alone.

    Then the power goes out, and Mike desperately wants to understand what went wrong, and to know what that damn painting means.

    or

    Seven nights in which Mike and Will have to sleep in the same bed, even though they’re barely friends anymore.

    Summary

    "Will," Henry sighs, "I helped destroy the neural lattice of an entire dimension. I’m not solving for X."

    "Wow. So you can annihilate timelines, but Algebra II’s where you draw the line?"

    "Frankly, it’s beneath me."

    "Yeah? You say that, but I bet you don’t even know what a logarithm is."

    Henry’s quiet for a beat. And then—
    "…What is a logarithm?"

    Will laughs under his breath before he can stop it. The kid next to him gives him a weird look. Will pretends to cough and returns to staring at the graph paper like it personally offended him.

    Summary

    “Do you think,” Will swallows hard. “If you could go back, knowing everything, you’d choose to love her again?”
    “Yes. Not—not because she needed me, but because—I don’t know. If I didn’t love Nance, I wouldn’t be here. I’d still be dickwad Steve Harrington who peaked in high school.”
    Will laughs, gentle. “You were a dickwad.”
    Steve hums agreement. He considers something for a moment. “What about you?”
    “What?”
    “Your Tammy. Knowing what you did now, would you go back and love him all over again?”
    “Yes,” Will says instantly. “Of course.”
    “Why?”
    Will looks at him then, so earnest, still so young, so full of love to give and so willing to give it away.
    “Because it’s him.”

     

    or:
    Steve Harrington and his thoughts on the end of the world, love, and Will Byers.
