    Summary

    When Will had invited her — he still can’t remember her name, and he’s beginning to feel a little bad about it — over tonight, he’d hoped that he could calm the storm brewing within him, the longing that’s gotten so acute it’s painful to be around Mike, sometimes.

    He’d hoped that she would help, but not — not because he was horny, or whatever. Will’s thought process — one he was maybe starting to regret a little, actually, but it was much too late now — had been that if he could kiss the same lips Mike had kissed, it would be like kissing Mike.

    ***
    will's had a taste of mike, and it doesn't feel like enough anymore. if he kisses all the same girls mike does, though, it's just like kissing mike again. right?

    Summary

    He doesn’t mean it like that – in a romantic way. It’s just what he feels – that Will is his superhero, brave and smart and always there for Mike – and he was thinking about superheroes anyway, what with that Spider-guy from YouTube, and Mike is groaning and letting his head thump against his desk because he is really, truly head over heels in love with Will. 

    He’s learned to control it a bit better, tamp it down into something manageable, because Will’s his best friend and also the best person he knows, and he deserves better than Mike stumbling over himself every time Will flashes him a smile with those bunny teeth or puts his cold feet under Mike’s thighs on the couch.

    Plus, Will has a boyfriend. That’s definitely – a deterrent, to put it kindly. 

    will has been sneaking around more and more, and mike's convinced that he has a secret boyfriend. the appearance of a local web-slinger is probably unrelated.

    Summary

    Mike thought again about that night, how Will had looked at him like he was taking a visual inventory, trying to memorize it all in case it never happened again. Having that intense, yearning effect over Will was amazing. What would he do if Will didn’t want him that way anymore? And what if it wasn’t really about that at all?
    For a second, a terrifying thought occurred to Mike — what if it’s just different with him?
    ---
    In December of 1995, Mike Wheeler and his band, The Swinging Party, are on their first big headlining tour of North America. At their sold out show in New York City, Mike nurses his pained shoulder and receives a surprise visit from his estranged best friend (call it that if you want), Will Byers. Mike spends the following day in the city, killing time and partaking in his habits before he "catches up" with Will in the evening.
    Memories return. Mistakes and misdoings haunt the narrative. Potential for new beginnings arise.

    Summary

    The truth is, Will wouldn't know what an actual normal person does, not really. The word normal has become a thing of the past, an outdated word that's been permanently torn from his vocabulary.

    Will Byers hasn't known normal for years. Not since that damn spider bit him.

    And just when Will thinks he's finally figured out this whole superhero life, here comes Mike Wheeler, ready to prove him wrong.
