Summary
"Stop looking," Mike seethed.
"What, I'm not allowed to look at you?" Will snapped just as angrily.
"No!" Mike cried out.
"Why the hell not?" Will stalked closer, his smell of oranges so sweet and so tempting that Mike had to bit on his lip to stop a whimper.
"Because - " Mike stuttered, feeling like he was losing his mind as Will cupped his jaw. "Because - you're - you're driving me crazy, and I can't breathe around you - "
"Yeah?" Will whispered, his eyes intense and his voice even more so. "Then what do you think you're doing to me, Wheeler?"
***
Others liked to describe Dr. William Byers as the most brilliant surgeon that had graced St. Hawkins Hospital's history.
Mike liked to describe him as hotter than the fucking sun.

Summary
“What did you mean, ‘we’re not friends anymore’?” Will demands.
“Oh god,” Mike says faintly, because he can’t think of a single other thing to say.
“It’s Will, actually,” Will says. “Or maybe you forgot that in the five years since you last bothered to speak to me before you sent me this.”
He unfolds his arms to brandish a crumpled envelope in Mike’s face, and he knows without even looking at his own handwriting on the front exactly what it is.
(or, the summer after all his friends graduate from college, mike writes will a letter to say goodbye. predictably, nothing about this goes as planned.)

I’m Mr. Loverman (and I miss my lover, man) by Anonymous

Summary
“Will—just tell me the truth. Are you guys really leaving for California?” Mike gasped, eyes wide and voice shaking.
Will froze, glancing back at Mike, his own eyes big with surprise. “I—Mike, where did you hear that?” he stammered, shutting the door behind them.
Mike tried to steady his breath, the panic heavy on his chest. “I—I overheard my mom on the phone,” he managed. “She said you were leaving. Will… Is it true?”
He hoped Will wouldn’t notice the tears in his eyes—tried to tell himself it was just rainwater dripping from his hair, running down his cheeks and soaking the doormat. None of that mattered, though, because Will was leaving. Leaving him.
Without Mike.
Or Mike wrestles with the guilt of failing everyone, being unable to save Hopper and losing Will as his family moves away to California. After all, how can a ship remain tethered without its anchor to keep it steady and strong?"
(set in the three month gap before Will, Joyce, Eleven, and Jonathan leaves to Lenora, California)

okay so are the curtains blue for a reason or what (this is a metaphor) by sunflower_J

Summary
Now, someone walked into the room. A boy, awkwardly standing at the side of his bed, looking over him worriedly. His hair was brown and scruffy, and he had big baby doe eyes and a yellow-and-blue horizontally-striped shirt like a cartoon character. The window was lighting him up like he was important to Mike’s narrative. The curtains are blue, thought Mike, this boy is light. I love metaphors. Maybe he was high on the pain meds. Upon seeing him, Mike felt a great affection, a great peace. Plus, he had long eyelashes. Mike almost giggled to himself. He was definitely a little high.
“Hi.” breathed Mike.
“Hi.” he said, hesitating.
“We’re friends?” Mike asked hopefully.
Or: During the Party's final battle with Vecna, Mike is gravely injured and loses his memories. He wakes up in a hospital only remembering a handful of inconsequential little things, like how much he loves a boy who seems like light.

Mike Wheeler always late to the party (but he saves the day) by Anonymous

Summary
Will stared off into the distance, trembling. He didn’t respond until Mike placed a hand on his shoulder, which made him flinch. “Sorry—I… you…” Will stammered, his voice cracking. “You just did that.”
“What?” Mike asked softly.
“Magic,” Will whispered, his voice barely audible, his eyes welling with tears. Mike didn’t know how to respond. He sat there in silence. “It’s–uh.. Not Magic.” He says back sounding a little flustered. Will had an awed look on his face, making his eyes shine under the moon.
“You ripped that Mind Flayer in half.” Max approached them then, her face bruised.
Or canon still happens because Mike was busy being sick. Hopper’s (false) death, Eleven losing her powers. But at least Billy is alive because Mike just came at the right time to kill the Meat Flayer or whatever disgusting shit that is.
(or in short Power!Reveal you all are asking for Mike Freaking Wheeler)
