    Summary

    “You didn’t deserve any of it, Will. You’ve been violated in ways I can’t even begin to imagine. I just wish I could have been there for you, could have stopped it somehow. I don’t know. God…Will. You were so little.” He pauses for a moment before repeating himself. “So little.”

    Tears are falling faster down Mike’s cheek now. He squeezes his eyes shut, attempting to stop them. His breathing is going shallower, and a panicky feeling is starting to overwhelm him, when he feels Will’s hand touch his shoulder.

    “Mike,” Will says, trying to make eye contact.

    Mike tries to slow his breathing, tries to listen to the soothing sound of his boyfriend's voice, but something in him is still unable to meet his boyfriend's eyes.

    “Mike, will you please look at me?” Will tries again, gently.

    After a moment, Mike lifts his gaze. Ebony eyes meet Hazel.

    “You were little too,”

    Or:
    November 6th is fast approaching, and Mike has a lot on his mind.

    Summary

    With Will’s hand moving tenderly over his unhappy stomach, Mike was reminded very suddenly of the description of sheep bloat in Far from the Madding Crowd. Mike hoped Will knew some special technique to sort this out. Maybe a quick jab with a hollow reed would work on humans, too. Mike wondered if Will knew that being Gabriel Oak was sexy in Mike’s nausea-addled mind. And in his normal mind, to be honest, though Max (and El and Nancy and – shut up) would probably say that was addled already. But Will would make a good shepherd, Mike thought, without any detailed knowledge of the profession. He’d be gentle with the animals. Take care of them. Never let a single one get lost. A vision of Will sitting criss-cross in a barn, bottle-feeding a lamb that was cushioned by his ample belly floated across Mike’s imagination –

    “Mike? You still with me?”

    --
    On the fifth day of Christmas, Mike eats an entire trifle. He reckons if Will can do it, so can he. His stomach disagrees.

Turning to alcohol and reckless behavior, he struggles to cope with the fear of his sexuality. In desperate attempt to prove himself, Mike is wreck less and careless. Weeks later when a girl named Ashley shows up with a positive pregnancy test, claiming he’s the father of her child, Mike’s world is shattered. After the birth Ashley disappears, he’s left alone to care for the baby, barely scraping by, struggling to afford food and balance overwhelming responsibilities. With his mental health crumbling, Mike doesn’t know how much longer he can keep going.

    Summary

    On the threshold between inside and outside, Nancy “stops” Robin with a dead-serious pre-world kiss like it’s standard procedure. The makeout leaves Robin warm, wrecked, and newly steadied for the day. Will catches the moment with fond approval, Mike complains on principle, and they all step into Hawkins with hands linked and courage recharged.

    Summary

    After a brutal day, Robin finally lets her guard down in Nancy’s arms. The night becomes a slow unspooling of safety: promises whispered into hair, a warm “koala” hold, and kisses that shift from proof-of-reality to quiet, hungry comfort. Downstairs, Mike tries to complain on principle while Will watches the new softness in the house like it’s a miracle. Everyone keeps breathing. Everyone stays.

    Summary

    “So why’d you move here?” Miller scoffs. “This place sucks.”

    “It’s not that bad,” Will shrugs. “And, um, we moved here because…um, because my mom got a new job. Here.” he clarifies, unnecessarily.

    “Cool,” Jodi nods. “What’s her job?”

    “Um…” Will hesitates, knowing he can’t really say she works from home, because that would sort of contradict his earlier statement, because, hello, they wouldn't have had to move if that was truly the reason. “She’s…she’s a teacher,” he lies.

    “Where?” asks Nicky.

    Shit.

    “Um—”

    “Will?”

    Fuck. El.

    Summary

    When the doorbell finally rang, Mike was ready. Not really, but that’s what he told himself to keep sane.

    He opened the front door and oh, god. Will stood there, looking stunning in a pale yellow-green button up and dark grey vest. His hair was still a little damp and soft-looking and his eyes sparkled. He held a bouquet of what looked like paper flowers in one hand. "Hi," Will said quietly in that stupidly pretty voice, beaming at Mike.

    “You look really good,” Mike blurted in response. They’d been together for three months now, but the sight of Will still left Mike flustered and blushing.

    “You do too.” Will said softly. “Shit, Mike, you’re handsome.”

    Mike thought he might die. Was he really handsome?

    Summary

    "Will was tired. He was tired of so many things it was ridiculous. He was tired of omnipotent beings. He was tired of saving the world. He was tired of fighting things in order to save the world. He was tired of still having teenage feelings in the middle of literal hell. He was tired of noticing every small smile, every stray hair.
    He was tired of Mike Wheeler."

    Mike has too many thoughts in his head, and Will helps him make sense of them
