Summary
Mike Wheeler has had several moments of clarity in his life.
Some small- so small they arrive as whispers, delicate impressions. They pass through him like half-formed thoughts, leaving behind embossed truths that only become crisp upon later inspection.
Others are seismic shifts, sudden and catastrophic, splitting him open and demanding his attention. Every one of them is significant. He just hasn’t always been very good at recognizing them when they happen. He’s better now. At least, he’s getting there.
———————
Or, Mike Wheeler is entirely in love with Will Byers. It just took him a while to realize, to understand. In reality, his love for Will has always been innate- a part of who he is, inseparable from himself. The only problem is, Mike is pretty sure Will has moved on, that he’s gotten over his crush. And Mike is fine with just being his friend- really, he is.
But then Will starts screaming in the night. And sometimes, that’s all it takes to trigger an avalanche.

Summary
In the summer of 1989, the Byers family moves to Montauk, cutting short Mike and Will's last summer together before college. Certain he'll never see his friend again, Will confesses his love on their last night together, rocking Mike's world entirely. As the tear-filled goodbyes draw to a close, however, Mike is suddenly offered the unexpected opportunity to travel with the Byers family and help them move.
They have five days out of state together to address Will's confession, learn to communicate, and maybe, just maybe, say a few things they should have said all along.

Summary
They were finally free. The sky had returned to its natural blue, the ground closed up, and the fog of black smoke no longer hung over Hawkins. Mike had to keep reminding himself of that fact. Everything was perfect.
Maybe too perfect.
OR
Post season 5 fix-it, where everyone was Vecna'ed and the world did "end," and now they have to figure out how to get back home. But the way to get home might suck more than if they were to stay in the messed up, distorted version of Hawkins. At least for Mike.

Summary
It’s quiet for a few minutes, long enough for Will to think that Mike’s fallen back asleep. But then he speaks again, his voice a low, conspiratorial whisper: “Hey, Will?”
Will hums absently, half asleep himself. He’s always more tired after he gets emotional, and Mike’s so warm.
“I know it’s, like, not the greatest circumstances,” Mike says, “but I like this. Being- there for each other, I guess.”Maybe Will's crazy, but he's starting to think Mike might like him back.
