Summary
«... The warmth between them was so familiar and at the same time so rare, and Mike wanted to stay that way forever, and hold even tighter, so tighter, and he wanted to keep his eyes closed and forget that they were two separate people.
“Please...” he found himself whispering, so softly that he was sure only Will would hear.
“Please, don't forget about me. Please don't..”, he muttered in his ear, and he knew it was unfair of him, because he was the one who had given up on New York. He knew it.
And Will sighed through tears, and tightened his grip slightly on his hair and waist.
“Never...”, he answered him, and Mike felt the knot tighten in his throat, and it didn't want to go down.
“Never.”, Will insisted.
And Mike breathed, trembling, and nodded softly, on his best friend's neck. He hadn't shed any tears, but he still felt like he was about to sob...»Or: After graduation, everyone moved on. The Party left Hawkins, and they are pursuing their dreams. Everyone except Mike, who seems stuck in an unattainable past, in a life that doesn't seem like his own, in a gray and empty everyday existence. He doesn't know what to do. Then, Will returns for Christmas.
