Summary
“Will! Please!” Mike begs as his best friend walks away from him.
Will’s face is twisted with a look of repulsion that shatters Mike’s heart. After a few more steps back, Will finally turns his back and keeps walking to the dark corridor.
“Please… come back to me” the boy is now crying, he wants to run, to apologize for everything he said two minutes ago, but his muscles don’t want to move, Mike is frozen and forced to watch Will disappear.
This is the end. He ruined everything. Again.
He ruined everything with everyone, El, Eddie, Lucas, so many others, and now…
He fell to his knees while he struggled to breathe, his throat tightening from his tears. Mike wants to scream, but nothing comes out from his mouth.
Why is he like this? Why did he fall in love with his best friend? Why?
“It’s you. You are the curse, Michael.”
OR rewrite of the Stranger Things’ finale because the real one is bad. (With Byler obviously)

Summary
“Are you sure?” He presses, and it drives Will crazy.
“Yeah.” His voice comes out unsteady, shaken and cracking, but Mike only nods, and while casting him one last concerned glance, throws an arm around his shoulders, leading him over to a seat.
It- he drives Will crazy. He slips onto the terribly uncomfortable plastic chair and tugs off his coat, the thought echoing in his brain, eyes shifting from place to place. The table, Mike, the floor, Mike, his hands as they fiddle to unwrap his scarf, Mike as he huffs out a laugh and reaches to help him with the woolly accessory. Mike’s smiling face. Mike’s deep brown eyes. Mike, Mike, Mike.
December 15th, 1984. The Snowball. Will thinks that there's nothing worse that he could be doing tonight, and he'd rather shrivel up and die than stare at Mike dancing with Eleven for hours on end. Turns out he's the one dancing with Mike, and that school dances aren't so bad after all.

Summary
Since the duffer brothers absolutely queerbaited and bombed byler for season five, I want to rewrite season five with my own narrative so we arent queer baited and get the love story everybody wants.
---
Season Five of Stranger Things was supposed to be Hawkins' darkest hour-but what if the story unfolded the way it should have?
Mike Wheeler and Will Byers have always been at the heart of it, their bond deeper than Hawkins can ever understand. Through terror, heartbreak, and mind-bending horrors, they navigate a world that's trying to tear them apart-without ever realizing how much they mean to each other.
Hawkins isn't the same without Will, and Mike's about to realize that the person he's been searching for all along has been right in front of him.

EPILOGUE IS OUT!!!

Summary
“Are you having a fucking episode right now?” Max says, furrowing her brows. She doesn’t understand and Mike doesn’t know how to make her. He can’t say it out loud, not in full.
“I didn’t love her because she wasn’t who I wanted her to be.” He admits in a rush of words. 'Because she wasn't Will' goes unsaid.
or: max and mike as steve and robin in robin's coming out scene

Summary
In November of 1983, two young boys died in a lake in Hawkins, Indiana. Just days after each other.
One boy’s body was pulled from the lake, the other was last seen jumping into it just hours after.
Michael Wheeler and William Byers become a tale. A warning.
A warning of what happens to kids like them.
Except, Mike and Will didn’t die that night.
Dying might have been kinder than the fate they received after.
Or: What if when Mike jumped in Season 1, Eleven didn’t save him and he ended up in the Upside Down?

Summary
"What are you doing here?" Mike's face dropped as his eyes slid from El, past Max, and over to Will, "And what are you doing with them?"
"Shopping," El said with a blank expression on her face.
Max smirked, "This is their new look, what do you think?"
"You know she's not allowed to be here. And Will, how could you just run off like that, we were worried!" Mike glared straight at Max despite the fact part of what he said was directed at Will.
"What are they, your little pets? El can't leave the cabin, and god forbid Will strays more than three feet from your shadow, despite the fact you were completely ignoring him!" Max snapped right back.
━━━━⊱⋆⊰━━━━
Or... A rewrite of Stranger Things season 3 where Will leaves the mall with El and Max and helps them investigate while growing closer to both girls and becoming more confident in himself. Meanwhile, Mike considers what it might mean for him that he's more upset that his best friend ditched him to hang out with someone else than he is about his girlfriend breaking up with him.

Summary
Will raised an eyebrow at his friend's antics, then dropped his eyes to where he knew Dustin had reached a hand out towards him.
“This summer, we stick together. You and me, Byers.”
Will grinned, taking Dustin’s hand and shaking it. “You and me, Henderson.”
A rewrite of S3:
The night Dustin gets back from Camp Knowhere, he brings the Party up to the highest point in Hawkins to set up Cerebro. He thought that his friends would be excited to have him back-- even if it wasn't the most entertaining to sit on a hill and talk into a radio with no response, he thought they would at least wait for him before going home. He thought it was going to be the best summer ever.
Instead, he finds himself and the one friend that didn't leave him, Will Byers, intercepting a weird Russian transmission.
And, well... if he couldn't have the best summer ever, at least he and Will would have an eventful one.

Don't read this if you're in a bad headspace, this fic has explicit depictions of suicide and self-harm.
Mike and Will are tired. Tired of living in a town they know would never accept them as they are. Tonight is the night they've decided to leave this world behind, and what better place is there to do that than the quarry.
