Summary
Mike never meant the words he said in the basement.
Will never stopped believing them.
In the months that follow, they circle each other through anger, attraction, pride, and unfinished conversations, until a crowded Hawkins bar forces the truth into the open.
With their friends watching, their families adjusting, and El’s memory still sacred between them, Mike and Will learn that loving someone isn’t the hard part.

Summary
In the end, it doesn’t matter. None of it fucking matters. Because what’s really in control is the tension. This elusive string tied between their chests that’s always changing length. Right now it’s so short and taught and strong that Will can’t imagine resisting it. So really, it was never a matter of if he would. Just when. When will he fold? When will he let go and let himself follow Mike into the water?
He dares to glance down at his knees, where he can see Mike’s fingers peeking out from behind his calves (as if he needed that visual reminder that they’re touching), and then back up to meet Mike’s expectant gaze.
He’s going to do it. He’s such a fucking idiot.
OR
Mike & Will have a long overdue conversation on the way back to Hawkins— by, in, and around a random motel pool.

Summary
What exactly is Will supposed to say here? Hey, sorry this metaphorical wall is my fault. I’m kinda maybe definitely in love with you. Friends? Yeah, he’d rather jump off the tower than admit that.
But there’s one question that keeps circling in Will’s head, louder than everything else Mike just said.
Before he can stop himself, it slips out.“Why did you say it?”
or: the world is ending, Dustin is yelling from somewhere above them, and Mike decides now is the perfect time to figure out his feelings.

Summary
“Just think about it, William," Henry continues, likely after he's decided Will has ruminated on this for an appropriate amount of time. "All the things we could do together. We could build a new world, clean up the muck in the one that exists. No one has to get hurt. Think about it. I’ll be waiting for your answer.”
Henry’s arm lurches out in front of him, and all Will can do is stare in horror as one bony finger moves in towards his forehead. His eyes squeeze shut as a fingernail breaches his skin, and his vision goes white, then black.
“Will?”
That is definitely not Henry’s voice.
It's 1987, the Upside Down is infiltrating Hawkins, and Will's new home is Mike Wheeler's basement. As if that isn't bad enough, Will starts having odd dreams. At least, he thinks they're just dreams -- but if they're only dreams, why is he waking up in the Wheeler's front yard?
