    Summary

    Mike twisted his hand around Will's, and just as he was about to lean down and kiss his boyfriend in the stupidly loud terminal of Derry's shitty airport, he was interrupted by a voice that he hadn't heard in years.

    "Richie! You fucking motherfucker!" Eddie Kaspbrak screamed as he ran over, and just as Mike was about to shout at the inevitable punch, he instead groaned when Eddie yanked at the collar of his shirt, almost choked him, and crashed their mouths together so hard that their lips were probably bruised.

    And Mike, who still loved Eddie as much as he loved Will, couldn't help himself as he leaned into the kiss and did his best to return the franticness of it.

    "Uh," Max said somewhere to the side. "What the fuck?"

    ***

    Mike remembered shedding the name Richie Tozier as soon as he had arrived in Hawkins, like some sort of disgusting and slimy seal skin.

    It surprised him to realize that being Richie was actually akin to coming home.

    Summary

    The compliments had started small.

    “You did good,” Will had murmured, a few hours after the battle, as Mike tried very hard not to cry or pass out and Will clung to consciousness by a breath. And then, the next day, “Thanks for always being there for me. I couldn’t have done it without you.”

    Totally normal. Totally Will. Mike could handle that.

    But then it… spiralled.

    “Your hair looks good today,” Will said one morning in the kitchen while trying (and failing) to pour cereal without spilling half the box.

    Or, as they were walking to the Byers’ car: “I love your freckles. You know that, right?”

     

    💕💕💕💕

     

    Will starts complimenting Mike.

    Mike stops functioning.

    Summary

    “Guess that’s Will with me then.” Dustin shrugs, and Mike’s tight stomach drops to his toes.

    Will looks startled too, blinking curiously at Dustin which is rightfully so because— because— Has Will even slept over at Dustin’s? Mike was always the host house. It doesn’t make sense. It—

    The conversation has carried on without him, Dustin relaying all of his radio updates, the news about the burn. No one says anything more about the sleeping arrangements, but there’s something sour at the back of Mike’s throat when he watches Will bike off with Dustin.

    OR

    After the earthquake (read: Upside Down splits open) Will Byers needs a place to stay. So why isn't he staying at Mike's?

    Summary

    “Well, Mike seems to think it matters,” Robin mutters. “You should see how he’s staring at us. At you.” 

    Will shouldn’t look. He really shouldn’t. It’ll only make things worse. But the second she says it, his body moves without asking him first. 

    He turns toward where he saw Mike last. 

    El’s still talking, animated, but Mike’s eyes aren’t on her at all. They’re locked on him. Dark, unreadable, jaw clenched. It sends something white-hot and dizzying through Will’s chest. 

    -

    Every time Mike and El break up, Mike acts like him and Will are dating, and Will doesn't know how much longer his heart can handle it.

    Summary

    Maybe it’s the lingering adrenaline from the false alarm a moment ago, but Mike suddenly has a bad feeling deep in his gut. Something is off. Slowly, he walks around to look at Chrissy’s face.
    White eyes. Rapid blinking. Unfocused. Unseeing.
    Mike’s terror multiplies tenfold, heart rate ratcheting back up. He blinks and it’s Will standing in front of him, glaze-eyed and shaking, seizing, eyes twitching in their sockets, stuck in a waking nightmare as the Mind Flayer forces itself into every orifice.
    He blinks again and it’s Chrissy, going through the same thing. Or something very similar.
    Fuck. Not now. Not again.

    Or: After witnessing Chrissy's death, Mike finds himself on the frontlines of the latest interdimensional battle—and at the top of Hawkins’ Most Wanted list, as police, crazed townspeople, and otherworldly monsters all vie to get to him first.
