Summary
Will Byers has a life now. A boyfriend, a tiny apartment in New York, and a very strict schedule of avoiding small-town Indiana at all costs. That is… until Max and Lucas drag him back home for their wedding.
Cue Carlton, Will’s confident, New York–everything (epilogue) boyfriend who thinks he’s ready for “small-town charm” but is really just here for the open bar. Cue Mike Wheeler, best friend, childhood crush, and still somehow the only person who knows how to make Will’s heart do complicated things.
One wedding, one awkward reunion, several embarrassing childhood memories, and a dangerously flammable mix of jealousy later, Will has to decide, keep pretending he’s happy, or admit that some things, some people, never really leave you.

Summary
"I live in your house, Mike," he said, crossing his arms defensively. "I thought you'd already have enough of me."
"I don't." Will jumped at Mike's voice, head whipping back around to face him. "Come on, Will! You talk to Holly more than you do me. You're always doing those— those ugly craft projects with her, and I didn't even know you liked crafts, and I didn't know you liked Holly more than me, either. I don't know anything about you."
Will blinked at him, mouth agape. "They're not ugly," he said, weakly.
"They are." Mike glared at Will harder. "See? I didn't know you lied now, either."
The Byers spend their first year with the Wheelers. Will learns how to handle Mike, and Mike learns how to handle change.
