Summary
"Alright, Doctor Wheeler. You're up."
"What?" Mike replied. His gaze bounced between Will's wound, his eyes and his lips.
"I can't do the next part, my hands are too shaky. You'll have to stitch it up."
Mike felt like throwing up. He looked down at the needle and suture sitting in the kit. It's like they were staring at him, mocking him.
"I-"
"Please, Mike."
"I don't want to hurt you, Will."
Will thought that was quite generous of him, considering how much Will had hurt Mike within the last 20 or so minutes. Within the last year and a half, actually.
Will was sure he was looking at an angel, not Mike Wheeler. Or maybe Mike Wheeler was the angel he was looking at. Who would've thought that Mike also had a secret identity this whole time? An angel in disguise.Logline: While on the brink of death, Will decides to pay Mike a late-night visit after not seeing him for a year and a half.
Logline 2: Mike finds out in the craziest way possible that his best friend (who he hasn't seen in over a year) was actually a rooftop-swinging, tight suit-wearing, complete idiot of a superhero and it all starts with waking up to Spiderman bleeding out in his living room.Bookmarked by skinned_kn33s

Summary
“Will Byers?”
Will glances around, as if there is another Will Byers in their vicinity. He manages a small smile. “Yeah, it’s- uh. It’s me.”
Mike rushes forward, and all he can think is holy shit, Will is alive, as he’s throwing his arms around the other boy and tugging him in for a crushing hug. It isn’t until Will is secure, nestled–maybe a bit stiffly–in his arms, that Mike starts crying.
“I thought you were dead,” Mike murmurs, muffled by Will’s jacket. He sniffles. “I thought- we- they told us you were dead.”
Or, Will was never found in S1, but survives in the Upside Down until 1987 due to his powers and connection with Vecna. Cue Mike, an ill-timed trip to the Upside Down, and a lot of feelings.

Summary
What if Will Byers was never found in the Upside Down that first week? What if he spent three years fighting back trying to get home?
And what happens when he finally does?

Summary
Will Byers knows he won't make it out alive after the final battle. After all, he's connected to the hivemind, so when it dies, so does he.
Before he leaves, he wants one last chance to thank everyone, to tell them about how much they meant to him through eight letters addressed to his loved ones.

Summary
"Have you talked to him today?" Jonathan asked, gesturing to Will, who was now approaching the sink. Mike didn't need Jonathan to explain who he was talking about.
"No, he's been in the basement all day. I thought he was just painting or something," Mike replied, shaking his head before lowering his voice. "I think he's having an episode."
Jonathan nodded. "I mean, maybe, but he hasn't had one in a long time," he said, voice growing softer.
Mike knew Will was still recovering from everything, still adjusting to being back home. Everything that had happened in the past couple of years certainly hadn't been great, but Mike thought things were getting better, or at least easier.
"I know," Mike whispered, looking back to Will, making sure he hadn't left the kitchen yet. Will was finishing up rinsing off his plate. Mike turned back to Jonathan. "What should we do?"
"I don't know. I mean, you were always the one that he wanted. You always knew how to talk to him and knew what he needed," Jonathan said, pausing before continuing. "Honestly, I think he would probably just want you."
or
Will had an episode, and Mike was there to help.
