Summary
Will loved ordinary things, an uneventful existence was something he craved. Sadly, when Mike Wheeler walks into his life, Will’s easy going path snaps right in half. A passion he could never imagine overtaking his whole being.
It was too bad their friend groups hated each other and his sister had a huge crush on the musician. Off limits.
Fantastic.

Summary
Mike cannot move.
He feels fourteen again. Twelve. Eleven. Sitting at the dinner table, watching his father eat like it is the only thing he knows how to do.
“You hide from the truth,” Vecna says. “Would you like to see it, Michael? The truth you already know?”
The world tilts.
The Upside Down blurs like spilled ink. The ground drops.
And Mike falls into his future.
The world shatters like glass.OR: Mike Wheeler gets Vecna-yeeted into a nightmare vision of his future where he grows up to be his dad with a wife who regrets him and a lifetime of staring at men who look like Will like he missed the train.
He decides “absolutely not.”Bookmarked by TheTruthSpeaker

Summary
When Will needs to get his thoughts out of his head, he writes a letter he never intends to send. He addresses it to Mike, and tells him everything.
Feeling lighter than he has in weeks and buoyed by the adrenaline of writing it all out, Will acts on an impulse and ends the letter with, "If you’d be willing to give me a chance, I’d be really happy to date you. If you’re open to trying it, please meet me in Castle Byers this Saturday at 2:00pm. I’m not asking for any promises, I’m not asking for forever or anything like that; all I’m asking is that you give me a chance. Come if you want; if not, I completely understand, no hard feelings, and I’ll never, ever mention this again."
He forgets all about the letter, and the distinctive red envelope he stowed it in, until he turns around to find it missing. Now, Will has to think of some way to stop Mike from reading that letter - or should he wait at Castle Byers on Saturday at 2:00pm and pray for a miracle?
