    Summary

    Mike puts the car into park, but doesn’t tear his gaze away from the windshield. “Say it.”

    Will splutters. “Say what?”

    “Like we’re what, Will? Say it. Why do I make your boyfriend so nervous?”

    “You’re being a jerk.” He looks down and picks at a loose thread on his sweater.

    Mike is being a jerk, but he’s just tired. And Will is here in Mike’s car in the middle of nowhere, protected by the growing darkness of the evening, and goddamnit, Mike wants to hear him say it. He wants to hear Will say Mike isn’t better.

     

    Or: Mike and Will have been Mike and Will for sixteen years. Mike is not going to Will let someone else ruin that.

    Summary

    It's been nearly ten years since they saw each other. Ten years since they lived in the same state, much less occupied the same room. Ten years since they were friends; eight and a half since Will stopped referring to Mike as such, much less his best one.

    Ten years, and here Mike is, and here Will is, and here’s the guy in the chinos who just bought Will’s first friend, first love, first heartbreak a drink. Here is what the poets call cosmic fucking irony, Will thinks: the setup for the world’s unfunniest a guy walks into a bar joke, and Will’s the punchline. Will’s been punched in the gut.

    (or, after ten years of no contact, will encounters mike wheeler in a new york city bar, and he doesn't know what to do about it.)

    Summary

    It's November sixth. Seven years ago, Mike’s world went to shit in the woods outside Hawkins Laboratory. For three years, his life was a bloody, twisted wreck with a hell of a lot of casualties. Somehow, this just feels like another extension of that, like the light at the end of the tunnel turned out to be a train, and it’s bearing down on him at full speed while he’s just standing there and letting it.

    Seven years ago today, Mike Wheeler lost his best friend, and then he lost himself.

    November 6, 1990, in the corner of a crowded room with another boy’s hands in his hair, he feels like maybe, just maybe, he’s finally got a little bit of himself back. He doesn’t know if it’s a part that’s worth keeping, is all.

    (or, mike wheeler on kissing boys, growing up, losing your best friend, and finding him again.)
