Summary
For the first time, Lucas realises that none of them had ever really talked to Will about the Upside Down. He’s sure Joyce had tried, but Will always tried to protect his mother and brother, always felt like he was a burden on a family that was barely scraping together as it was, backs bending with the strain of giving Will some semblance of a good childhood. Lucas and Max had had each other, Dustin had had Steve, and Mike and Eleven had protected each other best they could.
Will, though… had never really had anyone. Once again, Lucas feels his heart twist in guilt over how they’d treated Will the summer before last, the summer after he’d been possessed.

Summary
New City. New School. Same Old Heartbreak.
Will Byers thought sharing a dorm with Mike Wheeler would be a dream come true. Instead, it’s a front-row seat to Mike’s awkward attempts at moving on from El. But when a messy night ends in a kiss that feels anything but accidental, the rules of their friendship are rewritten overnight.
Will is happy to play the role of the secret lover, the placeholder, if it means keeping Mike in his life. He’s prepared for the breakup. He’s prepared for Mike to find a "real" girlfriend. He’s prepared for everything... except the possibility that Mike isn't pretending at all.

Summary
“That is dumb.” She blinked. “I do not care if Will brings a boy. Will is Will. He is kind. He should be able to go with us and a boy and have fun.”
“Exactly!” Dustin snaps. “Which is why I’m asking Will to be my prom date!”
