Summary
Will,
I found this old journal of yours when I was looking for photos to put in your grad album for tomorrow. I thought you would want it. Maybe you’ll find some old drawings!
Love, Mom
The day before Will graduates, he reads through his old journal - the entries spanning from 1984 to 1986, narrating the indescribable guilt and shame he felt through those years.
But he’s made it out now, and decides to write one last entry.
A letter to his 13 year old self.

Summary
Mike pushes into his hands, but Will keeps him still.
"Ask again," he says. Because he's greedy, and he wants Mike to want him.
He stares at Will's mouth. "Please."
"Again."
El is gone.
Will tries to figure out how to move on in New York, and Mike follows him. Their apartment is haunted not by ghosts, but by the two of them.
Or: Catastrophically traumatized boys cling to each other and accidentally figure out how to be close—too close—while moving through their grief.

Summary
He opened their door, and the grin on his face quickly faded. Mike was sitting at his desk, arms crossed. The look on his face said that he was Pissed.
“What the hell, Will?” He asked, gesturing wildly with his hands in the way he only did when he was truly angry.
“What?”
“Don’t give me that bullshit, Will. Why the fuck did you move my notes? I went to study, and I brought the wrong fucking papers because you messed with my shit. Why the fuck would you put papers crumpled up on the ground right next to my drafts for my essay? You made me look fucking stupid in front of what could’ve been new friends. You know how fucking dumb I looked when I handed them writing about my DND character instead of our assignment?” His voice was getting louder and louder as he spoke, and Will shrank under the barrage.
“I- I’m sorry. I didn’t realize-”
“Didn’t realize what, Will? That you can’t just mess with other people’s shit without asking?”
Or: Mike follows Will to California for college, and, obviously, they decide to room together. Everything is going well until Will starts moving Mike's things without asking.

Summary
“Forever?”
Though the camera doesn’t catch it, Joyce and Jonathan exchange an amused look over the rearview.
Then, the footage splices, rapidly cutting through various points in life—Will and Mike’s first time hanging out at the Byers’; Mike coming over for Will’s birthday; Will coming over for Mike’s. Flashes of middle school that stretched into those final days before they left for Lenora. High school, graduation, moving day—the clips start blurring into one another as more pop up, but it stops on a clip of Mike and Will, probably around six years old, giggling as they try to handle the camera.
“We’ll see about forever, honey.”
(or, the one where jonathan byers has a lot of stocked up video footage from when mike and will were kids, and decides that the best time to reveal them is during his best man speech at their wedding.)
