    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

    Will bites his lip and nods, looking down at his shoes again so Richie won't see how hard he's holding back a giddy smile.

    Everybody in the party knows everything about him. Maybe it wouldn't be the worst thing to keep a secret from Mike for a little while. 

    It's kind of exciting. Sneaking in a boy Mike hates.

    Will shakes his head, trying to clear Mike from it for the night. Only when he looks back up at Richie, Richie has this conspiratorial smile on his face, like maybe Will isn't the only one eager to piss off Mike Wheeler. 

    OR: the concept of Richie Tozier being Will Byers' dirty little secret and Mike Wheeler being so jealous he can't breathe. Byler endgame.

    Summary

    “Wait,” Lucas takes another glance at Will, specifically at the sweater he’s wearing. “Is that Mike’s?”

    Here’s the other thing about the last eight or so months of Will Byers’ life: he’s been spending his nights, on and off, secretly, semi-occasionally, very frequently, kissing Mike Wheeler.

    He’s confused about it too, don’t even worry.

    Summary

    The very foundation of the universe has cracked. No, not the Upside Down; something even more catastrophic. Something so unbreakable that its destruction can lead to the end of life as they know it.

    “I just can’t believe they’re fighting,” Lucas muses with a sigh.

    “This is a bad one,” El emphasizes. “They fought in California too, but it wasn’t like this.”

    “In the ten years I’ve known them, I’ve never once seen them sit more than six inches away from each other. This is worse than the summer of ‘85.”

    When Mike and Will get in an argument, the Party comes up with a plan to get them back together again (as purely-platonic friends, of course).

    Summary

    “You okay?” Mike asks him. 

    Will turns to look at Mike. The light of the TV is projected on the side of his face, bathing his skin in greens and oranges. Sometimes Will feels like the secret to digging himself out of the wreckage of his childhood is hidden in Mike. There are days when the only thing that can dull the sharp pressure of grief in his ribs is Mike’s presence at his side; steady, thrumming. Will knows the day when he will have to detach himself is coming fast, but here in this basement, where nothing has changed in over a decade, time seems to have come to a screeching halt. It’s just the two of them, sat in the last place they were innocent together.  

    “Yeah,” Will whispers, “I’m okay.” 

    or; The Party's senior year of high school, in ebbs and flows.
