Summary
Richie and Will think they will never have their hearts beating fast again after their heartbreaks, until they enter the same university. Richie thinks he will never feel flowers in his body again after his romantic disappointment, until he sees William's soft hair. Will believes he will never feel his head exploding again after his rejection, until he sees Richard's freckles.
It's late fall of 1991 in New York, and the dry leaves tell Richie's heart to call his not-so-secret crush out for dinner, dancing, talking, and some avalanches.

Summary
Mike Wheeler never liked his name. Not Mike, Mike was fine. Michael. That was the one he couldn’t stand. But despite how many times he had asked, his mother would never call him Mike. She said she’d given him the name and she wasn’t going to have half of it erased. It was a strong, biblical name. One fitting of a young man. So he'd stopped asking.
Holly called him something different though
