Summary
“I can see just fine,” Will snaps. He doesn’t even want to have this conversation with Mike in the first place. If he did, it would’ve been a long time ago. “Why do you even care?”
“Why do I—” Mike splutters. “Because I care, Will! I care about you.”
Honestly — what was Mike expecting? That the past month didn’t happen? That they aren’t being weird again? The end of a literal apocalypse did more harm to their friendship than good, apparently, and it’s not something either of them can ignore.
Or,
The world is no longer ending. Half of them have moved into the WSQK. Max is learning how to walk again, Mike is hanging out with Robin Buckley, of all people, and Will—
—still hasn’t told anyone that he can’t see out of his eye.

Summary
“And why come back when so many are leaving Hawkins?”
Will slowed without meaning to. The leaves under his shoes crackled. “I–”
What should he tell this stranger that wouldn’t reveal the fact that his sister had superpowers and might actually be the only key to save this entire town from a monstrous maniac?
“Well, everyone I know is here,” he murmured. “I couldn’t… just leave them.”
The man hummed softly, then he lifted his head to scan over the woods, a faint whistle came from his lips, before his gaze landed onto Will again.
“Maybe something here wanted you back.”

Summary
It's not even like Will is some godlike specimen. His skin is olivey and a bit summer-tan, and he has floppy, honey-brown hair and a few moles smattered adorably across his face and arms, but he is very much just a boy. Average height, average build, symmetrical face. He's wearing jeans and a Zelda T-shirt and plain white Vans. But he gives Mike an awkward half-smile and a wave as he introduces himself at the box office, and Mike can actually feel himself get stupider.
Will and Mike meet working at their local movie theater, and Mike is so into Will — particularly his hands — that he almost gets fired.

Summary
Will found himself staring out his dorm window, watching the clouds in the dark night sky. Then, he realized Mike could be in the same state as him at that moment, looking up at the same sky.
He missed Mike, or at least, the Mike he remembered. The Mike he played D&D with, the Mike he went on bike rides with. He wondered what eighteen-year-old Mike could be doing. He hoped to find him someday.
Little does he know, Mike is closer to him than he thinks.
Or:Will is finally going back to Indiana for college. He's even majoring in his passion and taking an Art History class. Unfortunately his talent also means that he's been selected to tutor an English major that can't analyze a painting to save his life. That English major may also be someone he hasn't seen in eight years.

Summary
Max turned in the direction of the headstone as well. “Why would seeing someone’s name on there freak you out so much, Will. Jesus, I thought Vecna had you and I don’t have your music with me. I thought you were about to die, and I wouldn’t be able to do anything about it.”
“I’m sorry.”
“Don’t be, Byers, just tell me what's going on.”
Will just then found his mouth very dry and a lump set in his throat. Suddenly, all the words in his mouth died and he simply stared straight ahead.
“Will.” Max said softly after a few seconds. “Who’s grave is it?”
Will forced the lump down his throat as he answered her.
“It’s mine.”

Summary
Will's never been in a situation worse than this. How's he going to spend the next few months with Steve Harrington, resident douchebag of Hawkins?
Mike's never been in a situation more infuriating than this. How's he going to spend the next few months alongside Robin Buckley without strangling her?
Robin has never seen two teenagers more head-over-heels for each other than Mike and Will. Can they just get their heads out of the sand already?
Steve has never been more nervous around a teenage boy. Something about Will makes him feel guilty.
(Or; In the oncoming apocalypse, Mike and Will are forcibly 'buddied up' with Robin and Steve. It gets worse before it gets better.)
