    Summary

    What happened during the 18 months the Byers' and Wheelers had to stay together under one roof?

    Mike and Will's friendship is still fractured under the stress of a shared household. It seems Will would rather do anything but spend time with Mike or even begin to try to mend their relationship.

    Around Christmas time, Mike's sleep is constantly interrupted by not only his guilt but also the muffled sounds of distress that come from the basement.

    Summary

    Mike has spent the last three years figuring out what on earth to do with his life. From painting like will to writing news articles like Nancy— nothing seemed to work. Until, eventually, he turned back to DnD, landing right back where he started. A storyteller.

    He ends up applying for colleges to get a creative writing degree, and much to his surprise, he’s rejected from all but one. And the one he was accepted to?

    Will’s college.

    Mike tells himself it’s a big enough school and that they’ll never run into eachother. He won’t even have to think about what happened two years ago.

    And then he meets his roommate, Will Byers.

    Or;

    The voice sounded a lot like— 

    He turned around.

    “…Mike?” 

    Mike’s mouth dropped open for a split second, his hands going clammy. 

    “Will.”  

    Mike silently hid the scroll behind his back, putting on a smile. The silence hung thick in the air.

    “Uh, are you my roommate?” The words scratch their way up Mike’s throat, his free hand pointing to the random guy that Will was with.

    “Uh, no, it’s-“ 

    “It’s me,” Will interrupts, raising a small hand before quickly putting it back to the bottom of the boxes.

    Summary

    Will never thought his life would play out like a film. He was just the background noise, the extra on set. He never expected to be the kind of person movies make the main character. The kind of person who gets swept up in a story to be told.

    Then Mike showed up, and the scenes started feeling like they were his.

    ~

    or: Will Byers moves to Hawkins from California, gets an after-school job at the video rental store, and meets Mike Wheeler — who, it turns out, might be checking out more than just movies.
