    Summary

    “You’re enough,” he says, for the second time that night, and there’s no room for doubt anywhere in his voice.

    Mike can only shake his head. Tears slip down his cheeks as his lips wobble helplessly. “I’m not.”

    Will watches him for a moment before speaking again.

    “Talk to me.” His voice is still breathy and weak, the words almost getting lost between shallow breaths. “I love talking to you.”

    Mike lets out a laugh through his tears. “I love talking to you too,” he says, wiping uselessly at his face. “I love talking to you more than anyone else.”

    or, in which will byers is injured in the upside down and mike wheeler has to keep him conscious in his own way.

    Summary

    Mike and Will have had a slow burn of sexual tension building for years now. Even at 20, they still haven't gone there. They've gotten close, but something has always stopped them. Finally, in a spur of the moment, Will explains to Mike why he's so uneasy about sex. With this out of the way, they can move forward to have what they've denied themselves for years in their caution.

    Will has been abused, but he wants intimacy with Mike. He WANTS this. If it's Mike, he can put down the disgust and the fear. He can love and be loved, safely. He refuses to be owned by his demons anymore.

    Mike doesn't want to be a pest, so he's always kept the space Will needs-- but what Will needs now is to be taken care of in a way he never has been.

    Summary

    "Oh god, oh god, we've gotta get you to the hospital,” Mike panics. He pulls away and studies Will for a moment before barreling on. “Holy shit, one second you were just standing there and the next your eyes were rolling back and you were unconscious for a whole seven seconds-”

    Maybe Will really did bite the dust in the Abyss and this is the afterlife. He knows where they say boys like him end up after death. 

    But if hell was a baby-faced Mike Wheeler, still looking at him like he'd hung the stars, then maybe an eternity here wouldn't be so long.

    In which Will's connection to the hive mind has consequences in the final battle, sending him back in time to November 6th 1983.

    It's just like Back to the Future, if Marty McFly was a twelve–year–old with a bowl cut trying to save the world instead of his parents' marriage.

    Summary

    Mike bleeds out, slowly, in Will's arms. Just enough energy to say the words he's always meant to say.

    Then he wakes up.

    It's 1983.

    (Or: Vecna wins. Time travel ensues.)
