Summary
In 1983, Hawkins went cold and dark; the infected rose up in its population, more came crawling to its borders, and when the quarantine settled in and the walls were built up, Will and his family hadn’t made it out. It had been by the skin of their teeth that someone had managed to smuggle them out to a life free from the cold, from gaping mouths with pointed canines hungry for blood, from the new population of vampires that had risen up among the world’s inhabitants. The infected who had grown cold had stayed locked up in places like Hawkins, and the world had been better for it.
In 1994, Will goes back to look for Mike–his best friend, lover, ex-boyfriend, and, at this point, a stranger for the better part of two years. There’s a token in his pocket he intends to use to get them out of Hawkins’ grip once and for all, but not before he finds out why Mike ran away to a place that had done so much damage to Will.
It’s such a shame they’re both keeping secrets, though.

Summary
“I can see just fine,” Will snaps. He doesn’t even want to have this conversation with Mike in the first place. If he did, it would’ve been a long time ago. “Why do you even care?”
“Why do I—” Mike splutters. “Because I care, Will! I care about you.”
Honestly — what was Mike expecting? That the past month didn’t happen? That they aren’t being weird again? The end of a literal apocalypse did more harm to their friendship than good, apparently, and it’s not something either of them can ignore.
Or,
The world is no longer ending. Half of them have moved into the WSQK. Max is learning how to walk again, Mike is hanging out with Robin Buckley, of all people, and Will—
—still hasn’t told anyone that he can’t see out of his eye.

Summary
“You’re thinking,” Will says, skating a finger down the line of Mike’s nose, under his eye, over his cheekbone, then resting, finally, just at the corner of his lips– “about me.”
Oh, Jesus. Mike’s throat is very, very dry. “What?”
Will opens his eyes – slow, a little hesitant – and smiles. “You are,” he says, way, way too smug for Mike’s liking. “You’re turning red!”
“Shut up,” Mike mutters, and Will’s smile grows. “You– I’m just nervous!”
It should be illegal for someone to look this pleased with themselves. “Yeah?” Will says quietly, index finger still hovering at the corner of Mike’s mouth, thumb pressed gently under his chin. “I make you nervous?”
Mike thinks Will might be psychic. (Kind of.) Will is being very irritatingly vague about the whole thing.
