    Summary

    The dots are connecting in Mike's brain.

    He has half the mind to spare a second and laugh at himself–what was it that Dustin said, all those years ago, about Mike’s total obliviousness blowing his mind? He thinks, now, that Dustin was right.

    Summary

    “Just saying, if you’re taking another hit, you should share it with me,” Mike says, and Will slowly tilts his head, drinking in every word. “It just makes sense. Like, mathematically.”

    Will’s reddened eyes narrow, bewildered. “Mathematically?”

    “If there’s two hits left, we’d each only get one,” Mike explains. “But if we shotgunned, we’d both get two.” God, this is the best idea he’s had in ages. He should’ve stolen Will’s weed, like, months ago. “That’s like, bang for your buck. This is simple math, Will Byers. Keep up.”

    In which it’s well past midnight in New York, Will can’t sleep, and Mike feels like they barely know each other anymore.

    So, they get a little high. Mike is very normal about all of it.

    Summary

    “I didn’t want to lie to you.” Will’s voice is quiet and breakable, so different from the defensive, factual tone it should be. He should be meaner. Harsher. Crueler. “I just – I didn’t think it’d matter.”

    It feels like Mike’s entire body trembles, shakes like it’s about to burst. “You didn’t think it’d matter if you lied to me?” He hisses, and his voice cracks, just the littlest bit. 

    Mike Wheeler tries his best to navigate his way through the end of the world, with lots of maybes and misplaced anger.

    Summary

    And – that feels awfully revealing, so he adds, “I like the suit.”

    Mike brightens, and he’s just a step or two away, now, and Will could reach out and touch him. “I’m glad,” he says, “I was – I was hoping you would.”

    “Oh.” Will really wants to kiss him. “Well, I do.”

    Mike beams. “Good.”

    “Good,” Will echoes, feeling at a loss for what to say, but it doesn’t seem to matter when Mike’s grin only widens, and then his hands are on Will again, like they always seem to be, lately, and Will has no protests when they’re only a few inches away from each other.

    Mike has been acting strange, and, if Will didn't know any better, he'd almost think Mike was flirting with him.
    Thankfully, he knows better.
    Kind of.

    Summary

    His Mom smiles at him with a knowing look, and Jonathan has an arch to his brow like he wants to ask more – but before either can, there’s the sound of a thud.

    Will’s smile falls into his stomach. It wrenches with fear, with horror.

    All three look to the entrance of the lounge, the direction of the thud.

    “Shit,” says someone out of sight, just beyond the entrance, almost too soft to catch.

    Will’s blood runs cold, because he knows that voice, knows the specific lilt of it.

    “Mike?"

    Or, Will comes out on his own terms, to the two people who truly matter - and is overheard by the one other person who means the most. In wake of the revelation, they decide to split off and take the final battle with Vecna into their own hands, all while navigating the undeniable pull that grows between them.
