Summary
Mike and Will have been together for a couple of years, even when distance made loving each other difficult. Will lives in Lenora Hills, California. Mike lives in Hawkins, Indiana. Somehow, they make it work.
In the spring of 1990, Will comes home to Hawkins, and like most teens in love, their actions become reckless. By summer, Mike is placed in a position. A pregnant omega whose family head alpha is rejecting his unborn pup.
So Mike runs.
With only some cash, dreams, and clothes that he stole from friends and left behind by Will, he makes his way to California in the hopes of making it to the Byers' residence before his baby is born. Mike is willing to do everything he can to achieve that dream, because for once he wants to be the one to write the ending of his campaign.
Even though there is a chance that there won't be a single waterfall.

Summary
You remember the memories you and Steve Harrington have made throughout your many years of friendship. Since the first grade, you and Steve have been inseparable. Well, he was in the second grade–but the playground was an ageless domain. Starting high school was just another chapter of being in each other’s lives. Of course, only as friends. Now, you're a sophomore and he’s a junior. With sharing only one class together, you barely see him in the halls but he’s always around, lurking by your locker. However, after one normal day you realized something: You’re in love with Steve Harrington.
Nancy, your older sister, is the best girl you know. She’s kind, pretty, and your best friend. She’s only a year older than you, Steve’s age. You two used to share a room until your family moved to a nice house at the end of the cul de sac. Now, you two share a wall and a bathroom. The one thing you wish you’d known was, who was she sneaking into her room every night? He’s not as stealthy as he thinks he is.Things get messy. The truth comes out. Best friends turn into something else.

Summary
“So, we know that Will likes boys,” she said, looking at Mike. “And we know he had a crush, right?”
“Right,” Mike replied, nodding slightly.
“And we know that you want to be Will’s crush,” she continued.
“Right…” he murmured.
“And that’s where it starts to get confusing, because you don’t understand why you want Will to have a crush on you?” she pressed.
“Right,” he said again, his voice flat.
“Please say something other than ‘Right,’” she said, exasperated.
Mike glared at her.
“So, typically when people hope that someone has a crush on them, it’s because they have a crush on that person and they want it to be reciprocated,” she explained, tilting her head thoughtfully.
“But… I don’t have a crush on Will,” he protested, frowning.
“Are you sure you don’t?” she asked, raising an eyebrow.or
After Will's coming out, Mike has some questions he needs answers to. And Nancy is there to help.

Summary
“Hey, well, if we’re both going crazy, then we’ll go crazy together, right?”
“Yeah, crazy together.”
Where everyone else treated Will as if he was some fragile thing, like glass that might shatter at the slightest touch, Mike made him feel the exact opposite—like maybe all the terrible things he had gone through in the Upside Down hadn't ruined him forever, but had made him stronger.
In which Will finally stops hiding, not all of Steve's advice is terrible, and Mike surprises everyone (including himself).

Summary
When I met him on that swing set in kindergarten, I felt like my life began. And that day in the quarry, seeing his lifeless body on that stretcher and being carried out of the water, I felt my heart stop. But I never said any of that. Just more unsaid words that I never found the courage to say to him, but should’ve. Maybe if I said what I really needed to, maybe everything would’ve been different now.
But, Eleven was my girlfriend. Eleven was the person I was meant to be in love with. Except. . .I didn’t feel that way, not for her. No, never for her. But for him. For Will.
It was always Will.
MAJOR SPOILERS TO S5 E7 of Stranger Things.
Mike has been in love with Will since as long as he could remember. Except, did he realize this too late? Because one second, Will is looking at him like he hung the stars himself, and the next he is calling him his 'Tammy'.
He realizes in the past years he's been just too scared. Scared to voice his opinions or feelings. There's just so much left unsaid. And Mike finally decides it's time to say everything he meant to all those years ago.
And this time, he'll make sure he does it right.

Summary
"Just," she started, her voice quiet. "Would it be so bad? If Dad was right?" Nancy scooched a little bit closer. "Not- not about the crazy, demonic stuff, obviously, just the... the other thing?"
"Mickie, look at me." Mickie turned, tears brimming in her eyes. Her hands reached out wildly, and Nancy grabbed them, stilling the shaking. "Do you mean if Jo was a-" She paused, blinking away the blurriness in her own eyes. "If Jo liked girls?"

Summary
Mike Wheeler doesn't know if he's ever really been in love, and even though the world is ending, this feels like a pressing matter. Especially since he has a superhero girlfriend of four years that he's not sure how he feels about, and his best friend has a new girlfriend (no matter what anyone tells him, he's firm in this belief) and he kind of hates her guts.

Summary
Since they were little, Mike and Will would have sleepovers in the basement when the whole party was over, but the nights when Dustin and Lucas (and later Max and El) were busy, they would sleep up in Mike’s room. It started when they were small, small enough to fit comfortably in Mike’s double bed without getting too much in each other's space. Or that was the idea anyway. But time and time again Mike would wake up with their legs tangled up together.
He would even sometimes wake pressed up against Will’s back, arm around his waist like they were spooning - but he refused to call it that. Because if he called it that, he’d have to address all the other ways they touched that best friends maybe didn’t do. And that made his stomach clench up with something like shame mixed with fear. -

Summary
"So if the Byers were living with the Wheelers for 18 months, that’s a year and 6months, that means everyone’s birthday got celebrated at least once, they spent one full holiday season together, an entire summer together, and ALL this happened on a lockdown so they couldn’t leave Hawkins."

Summary
There’s something wrong with Will.
It started three weeks ago, almost four. Will had woken from some sort of nightmare and, instead of seeking comfort in Mike the way he usually would, he’d rolled out a sleeping bag from the closet and chosen to sleep on the floor.
No one believes Mike, except for Joyce. But even she doesn’t understand the full extent to which something is wrong with Will.
Mike understands, though. Mike has been paying attention.
