Summary
The thing about surviving the end of the world was that you were supposed to feel relieved.
Mike was pulling away and Will felt like he was losing a piece of himself. But things aren't always what they seem.
Mike was gutted at what he was doing. But he had no choice.
"Tomorrow, he would start pulling away. Tomorrow, he would begin the process of creating distance. Tomorrow, he would break both their hearts to keep them both safe." -

Summary
Robin shifted her weight, glancing between them. Her fingers drummed against the glass bottle—tap tap tap, a nervous rhythm. "So... do you know something?"
Nancy's head snapped toward her. Their eyes met, and she saw it—recognition. Shared understanding. The weight of carrying someone else's secret pressed between them like a physical thing. "Do you know something?"
"I might know something," Robin said slowly, drawing out each word like she was testing their weight. Her leg started bouncing—that nervous tell Nancy had learned to recognize over the past few years of working together while they saved the world, and then here, preparing for the end of the world. "Do you know something?"
"I might know something," Nancy admitted, and felt her pulse pick up speed, felt heat creeping up her neck. -

Summary
“We’ll always be here,” El replies kindly. “If things are ever confusing, remember that, okay?”
Mike swallows the lump rising in his throat. His hands shake with vulnerability. The room feels a bit suffocating, but he can’t tell if it’s from fear or love.
He thinks it might be love.
He meets Will’s gaze. He sees an entire galaxy in his eye.
“You came back,” Will says simply. “You came back to us, and that’s all that matters.”
Season 5, but things don't go as planned. In fact, Mike learns that reality can fall apart in the blink of an eye, and promises are the only thing that can stitch it back together.

Summary
“It’s almost perfect,” Will narrows his eyes and leans forward, bringing up his hands to move Mike’s hair out of his eye, fixing up his vision and allowing him to see clearly Will’s focused expression and the lack of distance between their faces.
Maybe it’s the fact that Will somehow seems to radiate sunshine or that Mike’s time is approaching fast, but he’s seeing light. A whole lot.
“There. You look… beautiful.” Will smirks as he pokes fun at Mike’s earlier comment, and Mike needs to think of some cool last words, quick.
Mike Wheeler is dying. Well, maybe he isn’t, but that’s a lot easier to accept than the idea that he might be falling in love with his best friend.

Summary
"“W-what happened?” Will asks, and sure enough, through his watery gaze Mike sees that same thing he’s heard in Will’s voice, or better, doesn’t see, because it’s an absence, an emptiness, even if Mike can’t quite pinpoint it. Something is still wrong.
“Oh honey, you went in a trance for a moment there, scared us to death. But you fought, you fought that vicious monster, and now you’re back,” Joyce explains, her voice soft.
Will frowns, the confusion in his gaze deepening. “What? What monster?” He asks, and Mike’s knees tremble. Something is very wrong.
“Vecna,” Mike replies before he can stop himself, and Will’s gaze finally turns to him.
And there’s nothing there. Will’s expression as he gazes at his best friend is… blank.
“Who are you?” Will asks, and the world comes crashing down on Mike."Will uses his powers to save his friends, and Vecna strikes back. When he wakes up, he doesn't remember anything about Vecna and the Upside Down, and he doesn't remember Mike. Mike is crushed, but he could never give up on Will. So he helps him get his memories back, and put an end to this evil once and for all.
