    Summary

    “I know. It’s such a shitty situation-“

    “Understatement of the century.” Will remarks with a small smile.

    “Yeah. But really. I miss you too. So much.” Mike swallows, planning his next words. “I know I don’t tell you this enough, but I lo-“

    Mike is cut off by an abrupt flickering of the lamp. It shuts off for a second before flicking back on. Will glances at the lamp, and when he turns back to Mike, he’s white as a sheet.

    “Did…. did you hear that?” He asks in a shaky voice.

    Will frowns in confusion. “Hear what?”

    “The clock-“

    Summary

    “What do you want Wheeler?” 

    Mike’s jittery foot-taps started just as he replied, “Did you eat breakfast?” 

    What?” Max blinked, then glared. “How is that any of your business?” 

    For a moment, she was sure Mike would glare in return, say something fiery or insulting or mocking then they’d both go back to how things were – ignoring each other until interaction was absolutely necessary. 

    But that didn’t happen. 

    Grief can cause distance between close friends and bring closer the distant ones.

    Max should’ve known that Mike Wheeler can’t help but meddle with her business. But as their reluctant friendship blossoms into profound understanding, Max is amazed at how much they have in common and how much this friendship feels like something she can enjoy, instead of something she has to endure.

    Summary

    Mike was totally freaking out.

    Max stood in front of him, her face one he had never seen before, full of vulnerability and pain and so much terror. This was not what the redhead's face was supposed to look like, it should be filled with annoyance after he said something stupid or with those silly love-struck eyes she made every time Lucas walked into a room.

    There was so much blood that it made Wheeler almost pass out, that only not happening because of the adrenaline that was being pumped into his bloodstream.

    ————

    After The Party stop Brenner from continuing torturing Max, the gang will do everything they can to bring both her and Mike back to safety.

    Summary

    The friendship between Dustin Henderson and Steve Harrington was common knowledge in Hawkins by the time Dustin was a freshman. Steve was always driving Dustin to school and picking him up, ruffling his hair and giving girl advice. So naturally, everyone took notice. That scared most people into not messing with King Steve’s little prince. But not Troy Walsh and James Dante, who saw their opportunity to strike.

    Summary

    After Starcourt, Steve ends up sleeping at Dustin’s house. It happens by accident: Mrs. Henderson drives him home because his parents don’t show up at the mall, and when Dustin asks if his parents are even in town at all, he casually admits that no, they aren’t, and actually he doesn’t know if or when they’ll be back. He hadn’t planned on telling the truth, but he’s currently suffering his third concussion in just as many years, and putting together a believable lie requires a few more brain cells than he currently possesses. The words come tumbling out before he can stop himself.

    Summary

    In the aftermath of the Upside Down, Steve struggles to cope with the idea that monsters aren't a figment of a child's imagination, nor are they hidden deep within humans. They're real, tangible beings. So he turns to cutting himself, to distract from his spiraling thoughts. However, the kids, Dustin in particular, realize that something is wrong with their friend/babysitter. He's sad; he's hurting; he needs help.

    Summary

    With the events of Vecna over and dealt with, and Steve's injuries finally dealt with, Steve and Dustin head back to Dustin's mom's house. Dustin Henderson has become concerned about how Steve is about his own life given the events around Vecna and the upside down and the pattern that he has noticed ever since he first met Steve.

    There is not much in the way of plot, more just a bit of introspection from Dustin about how Steve treats his own life.

    This fic takes place after the events season 4 is over, during which Steve obtains no further injuries and things are generally fine.

    Summary

    Dustin wakes up in pain in someplace dark and wet, struggling to breathe and fighting to move as pounds of rocks crushed down at him from somewhere unknown, all alone, very afraid, and hoping against hope that someone will stumble upon him.

    Someone with familiar hair and a familiar face and Steve was pulling him out of the hole and carrying him to safety.

    When he woke up, Steve was by his side, and Dustin wasn't aware of how much he needed to see him.

    (AKA Dustin finds himself in a spot of trouble involving a demo-dog and a giant pile of collapsing rocks, and Steve is there when Dustin needs him most)
