Summary
She squats and squints to try and find the culprit. A small box that she had never touched that was littered with dust. She scrunches her nose as she feels a sneeze coarse though her body before she picks the box up. It was falling apart and the tape that had once kept the sides of the box together had lost the stickiness and feel to the ground. Curiously she opened the box to reveal 2 walkie talkies. They must’ve been from when everything with Henry went down.
Or 10 years after they defeat Henry Holly accidentally breaks Mike and Will's old walkie talkies, Mike is still grieving and doesn't handle it well.

Summary
After all the stupid shit Mike said when he was 14 he should be glad that this is what came true: love did make you crazy.
Mike really didn’t see any appeal, sure he wasn’t ugly, and clearly he was nice, but Mike thought he was just kind of bland. Will clearly didn’t have the same view.
The cute barista he had called him.
or Mike and Lucas go undercover at the cafe to see the barista who gave Will his phone number

Will feels like he's falling behind in life, he loves art but school is sort of taking the love away, he has no partner to speak of but his ex seems to be doing just fine, he's a broke student that is only back in the hometown he hates for his birthday and his luck seems to worsen when he's attacked by an alien in the alleyway behind his sisters work. Or maybe his luck is better because a beautiful mysterious stranger saves him.

Summary
“You’re going to throw it out right?” Will was caught off guard. Was he?
“Mike, it’s just a phone number not a proposal.”
“Still.” Will couldn’t understand why Mike was reacting this way to a simple phone number. Maybe Mike was fine with Will being gay in theory but not when he acted upon it.
“How long have you had the cup?” Will blushed yet again.
“Since this morning. I didn’t know what to do with it.”
Mike looked even more upset than he was before, his eyes were searching Will’s as if they were begging for an explanation.
“You didn’t know what to do with it?” He whispered, and something in his voice made Will feel ashamed, like he had been caught doing something he shouldn’t have been doing.
or everyone knows about Mike and Will dating except Will

Summary
Ever since his best friend Will Byers was murdered back in 1985, Mike Wheeler wanted nothing more than to leave his hometown of Hawkins, Indiana and never look back—only each and every year he’s forced to make an exception when it comes to the holidays. And when Mike visits for Christmas in 1995, his mom asks him to help clear out some junk in his room and down in the basement before he returns home to Indianapolis. But when he comes across an old trunk containing his Supercom walkie-talkie and ham radio, he discovers something strange that has the potential to change everything…
(or an AU inspired by the movie “Frequency” from 2000)

Summary
“'I’m in love with you,' Eddie says, so casual, like it isn’t 3PM on a Tuesday in the middle of a Family Video in Bumfuck, Indiana. Like they’re somewhere else, like he’s someone else. Like it’s nothing extraordinary."
Or:
Five times Eddie tells Steve he loves him, and one time Steve lets himself say it back.
