Summary
Instead of the quiet solitude of the winter morning that she had been expecting, there is a familiar face. A face Willow had wished to avoid for the rest of her life.
Michelle Wheeler stands hunched on her doorstep, clutching her side, face battered and bleeding. Her armour is dented, her cloak is torn, and yet she still manages to be the most breathtakingly beautiful person Willow has ever seen.
Their eyes meet. Willow can’t breathe. She sees reflected back in Michelle’s eyes the same shock ricocheting around her own body, and she desperately wants to turn around, shut the door. Pack up, move away. Find a new sanctuary, untouched by the painful memories of the only woman she has ever loved.
But Michelle is here, and she is bleeding, and she’s in pain, and Willow can’t turn her away.
Two years ago, Willow Byers disappeared from Hawkmoon without a trace, running away from her memories and her best friend. Fate intervenes.

Summary
“D’you ever consider I did it on purpose? I am a bit of an attention-seeker, you know.” Perhaps Mike is drunker than Will initially thought.
“What?”
“How else could I get the chance to talk to you alone?” Will feels like the air was just knocked out of him. Of course Mike is joking, but there’s a hint of truth to the statement. He was looking for ways to get Will alone. Will isn’t sure whether this information excites him or terrifies him.
“You’re nutty,” Will says, physically shaking the worries from his head.
“Maybe so,” Mike says, “but it worked.”
A collection of moments between cowboy Mike and saloon worker Will as they start to understand what they want in life. Story set in the Red Dead Redemption universe. Byler Big Bang 2024

Summary
Is it possible to die from an over excessive use of eye rolls? Probably not. If it were, Will would’ve been declared dead years ago—long before he ever got to call Mike his boyfriend.
Just let it be known that he’d be at very, very high risk right now if this condition had magically materialised within the past five minutes.OR: Will can't sleep, Mike's across campus, and his RA is definitely (not) hunting him down with a sniper rifle.

Summary
“Something in him broke open the moment Will didn't come home.
It wasn't gradual. It wasn't subtle. One day he was a scared twelve-year-old boy, and the next his body was locked in a constant state of panic—heart racing, hands shaking, thoughts spiraling endlessly around a single, unbearable truth. He couldn't sit still. Couldn't sleep. Couldn't breathe without feeling like something was horribly, irreversibly wrong.
The world felt wrong without Will in it.”

Mike imprints on Will, stuff happens & a now older Mike finally realizes his feelings for Will. (aka I rewrote some Stranger Things scenes to better suit my Byler tastes cuz I hated the ending.)Bookmarked by girlcoded

I'm sorry that you have to have a body by YourFellowGhost

Summary
Will Byers has been through a lot.
A lot of pain and suffering that had been broadcast to his friends and family. Things he didn't even have the chance to keep to himself. It only ended with him being treated like glass. So when he had the chance to keep something a secret, he took it.
Instead, it all went into a single sketchbook. Hidden, private, his. He had always been so good at keeping it away from prying eyes.
But his boyfriend had always loved his art.

Summary
“No.” The word escapes Mike’s lips, and it’s barely a whisper. Tears blur his vision, and he turns back around to El, trembling. “N-no, that… that can’t be right… Will… he-he can’t be gone, El; he can’t be dead—”
“Oh, Mike,” El whispers. She reaches up, wiping the tears from Mike’s eyes, and there’s a look on her face—so tender and so, so kind. “Isn’t this what you wanted?”
Her words hit like a bucket of ice water being dumped on him, and Mike recoils, staring at his girlfriend—no, wait, his wife—in horror. “W-what? How… how could you say that, El? How could you say that?!”
Or:
An encounter with Vecna forces Mike to reconsider just what it is he really wants in his life.

Summary
“Yeah. I guess I did. I really did,” Will’s eyes are full of tears, but no way in hell is he letting Mike see that. He gets on his bike and pedals as fast as he can. Behind him, he can hear Mike calling his name, but he ignores him, tears and rain blending on his face.
It’s not your fault I don’t like girls, Mike, but you have never made it easier.
Will has never hated him more, but he still doesn’t love him any less. God knows he’s tried.
~~~
Or the one where the byler fight in the rain goes a little differently, Steve and Robin play D&D, Mike is bad at feelings but doing his best, El and Max hang out with Will, and Will get's more agency.

Summary
“Can I… can I tell you something?” Will asked quietly. His heart was pounding, and he looked away before Steve could catch his gaze. Somehow some of his adrenaline from earlier that afternoon must have carried over, because he found himself feeling braver than normal. He heard Steve give a small sound of consent and he plunged ahead. “But you have to promise not to tell Jonathan.”

he's gonna notice me (it's okay, we're the best of friends) by mikeslawyer

Summary
“But I might not know what I’m talking about - I’ve only ever had a crush on Suzie and, as we know, she’s the love of my life.”
Dustin says proudly, getting a few groans, a full set of rolled eyes and some distant gagging noises - Will can bet money it’s Max - before continuing.
“Mike, what do you think?”
Will turns to face his best friend, who very pointedly avoids his eyes.
“I-uh. You know I haven’t been in a relationship since El.”
Lucas and El exchange a look - something that Will can’t quite place - something that feels like an unspoken pact of interrogation, before scooting closer to Mike, as if cornering him.
“That wasn’t the question, Mike.”
or
Will gets sick and tired of never knowing if someone has a crush on him, so he asks for advice. Why do all the signs point to Mike?

When you hold me it holds me together (and you kiss me in a way that's gonna screw me up forever) by Lookwhathappened

Summary
"Will and I will take the single." He volunteers, and he can feel Will's breath hitch against his neck, but by the way Will seems to settle further into his body, he doesn't seem to be opposed.
Mike knows that they need this time. They need the privacy to just be a couple, because he knows that once they're back in Hawkins the time to do things like cuddling together and kissing will be heavily limited. He wants to hold Will, and just give him one stress free night of just love and peace. Will deserves it more than anyone.

Summary
💙💛💚
(Reluctantly, Will ventures a possible solution, despite the unlikelihood of Mike being on board. Desperate times, and all that...)
WILL: You knowww… my mom did say we could come to her with any questions…
MIKE (sarcastically): Oh yeah. I can just picture how well that would go. "So, Mrs. Byers… Joyce – can I call you Joyce? (Will starts laughing hysterically.) Just out of curiosity… what do you think would be the, um… safest way for me to bang your son?"
WILL (laughing): Well, when you put it so eloquently…
MIKE: You're her precious little angel boy. There is no way I'm asking her how to defile you.
(Will falls back onto the bed, his legs still dangling over the side, and pulls Mike down on top of him, kissing him deeply.)
WILL: But I want you to defile me.
MIKE: Yeah, but she doesn't need to know that.
**************
Together, Will and Mike navigate the boundaries of their new relationship, while also trying to hide it from the homophobic haters of Hawkins, and maybe find a little privacy once in a while.
**************

Summary
“We’re supposed to be a team.”
Mike’s hand falls from the door knob. Instinctively, he takes a step back, and he turns back around. The door closes gently behind him, and Mike stares at his boyfriend in surprise and in confusion. “What?”
“We’re supposed to be a team,” Will repeats, his voice trembling yet still a bit angry. His eyes are narrowed at Mike—defensive but still on guard, wounded but still ready to fight.
It’s familiar. Somehow, the two of them always end up like this.
Or:
A year after the Upside Down’s destruction, Will and Mike are in what their friends like to call their “honeymoon phase.” But when a new problem arises and puts strain on their relationship, the two of them must learn what it truly means to work together as a team and to love each other well.

Summary
With the Byers back in Hawkins, the tension was getting harder to ignore. As Will desperately tries to move past the truth, Mike must learn to accept it. It takes time, it takes space, it takes tears. But maybe, somewhere along the way, they'll decide they're better going through it together.
