Summary
Mike has spent months ignoring what he feels when he looks at Will. Months pretending that the way his heart races doesn't mean anything. That "best friends" is enough.
Then Will uses his powers to save them all, and Mike can't stop watching. Can't stop wanting.
When Mike walks downstairs and sees Will changing his shirt—sees the freckles scattered across his back like stars—everything he's been denying comes crashing down.
Will knows. He's always known. And he's done waiting.

Summary
Mike Wheeler is obsessed with Will Byers—the beloved, magnetic barista who seems to draw everyone in without trying. From a careful distance, Mike memorizes Will’s routines, his class schedule, his coworkers’ names, the way he takes his coffee. Watching is safer than touching. Will is perfect—warm, artistic, adored by everyone who meets him, including him.
But perfection is a mask. Mike accidentally discovers that the sweetness is curated and the charm deliberate. Something sharp and dangerous lives beneath Will’s gentle smile. And as Mike’s fixation deepens, he begins to realize that just maybe he wandered too close.

Summary
The walkie at Will’s hip crackled, as if Mike felt his ears burning. “Will,” he said, voice low.
Will unhooked the radio from his belt. Nervous energy coursed through him, and he took a deep breath before answering. “Yeah?”
“You okay down there?”
“I’m good. You?”
“Me too.” Then, a little bashful: “I got you something.”
Will’s face hurt from trying not to smile like an idiot. “Really?”
“Guys,” Lucas cut in, exasperated. “Get your own channel if you’re going to flirt.”
Mike confesses his love in subtle ways at the end of the world. It takes a minute for Will to catch up.

Summary
In a world full of mind-possessing creatures and alternate dimensions, the fact that it’s nature that finally gets them is, if nothing else, ironic. Mike and Will are the one constant in a world where nothing ever stays the same. Maybe that’s why the universe never did manage to pull them apart.
Until, of course, the earthquake did.
Alternatively, Mike and Will are trapped at the Palace Arcade after an earthquake strikes Hawkins. They indulge in their last chance to make things right.

Summary
There’s something wrong with Will.
It started three weeks ago, almost four. Will had woken from some sort of nightmare and, instead of seeking comfort in Mike the way he usually would, he’d rolled out a sleeping bag from the closet and chosen to sleep on the floor.
No one believes Mike, except for Joyce. But even she doesn’t understand the full extent to which something is wrong with Will.
Mike understands, though. Mike has been paying attention.
