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 as Max smirked and added, "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 starting at season 3 placing Will in El and Max's storyline, allowing Will to receive the support he needs to grow 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
The world is falling apart and the Byers have been living in the Wheeler household much to Will's dismay. Stress piles up, secrets pile higher, and Mike and Will's relationship teeters between friendship, denial, and something neither of them has the courage to name.
A single night crosses a line they can't uncross and Will's long-rooted feelings only intensify, especially when Mike's affection only surfaces through the hazes of stolen wine or when he falls apart.
Caught between hope and heartbreak, Will can't tell whether Mike truly feels the same... or if it's just his way of numbing the world as it seems to be breaking.
Regardless of where they stand with one another, can they withstand the end of the world?
OR!
what happened during those 18 months + REWRITTEN SEASON FIVE.
(WARNING: lots of VERY mature subjects and themes in this story, viewer discretion is advised. - Also tried to make the characters as close to themselves as possible. Everything is pretty accurate in the setting other than Robin having a friendship with Will here.)

Summary
His Mom smiles at him with a knowing look, and Jonathan has an arch to his brow like he wants to ask more – but before either can, there’s the sound of a thud.
Will’s smile falls into his stomach. It wrenches with fear, with horror.
All three look to the entrance of the lounge, the direction of the thud.
“Shit,” says someone out of sight, just beyond the entrance, almost too soft to catch.
Will’s blood runs cold, because he knows that voice, knows the specific lilt of it.
“Mike?"
Or, Will comes out on his own terms, to the two people who truly matter - and is overheard by the one other person who means the most. In wake of the revelation, they decide to split off and take the final battle with Vecna into their own hands, all while navigating the undeniable pull that grows between them.

Summary
Will's a true sorcerer. Right after the truth comes to light in the middle of a battlefield, Mike Wheeler finds himself more amazed and enamored with Will than he'd like to admit. However, they don't have time to celebrate the peace, because not much after that, Vecna comes back, determined to take what Will loves the most if he isn't by his side in this war. The Demos try to take Mike, but right before he enters the Upside Down, Will jumps and goes with him.
They're together now. In the Upside Down. But they're alone too, with a long journey ahead of them. Mike knows nothing can go wrong. After all, the only thing Will has accepted is that now he has powers, right?
or,
Mike and Will end up alone in the Upside Down, and Vecna targets both of them. (Complete rewrite of Stranger Things' ending).
