Summary
He recoils in shock and terror when he sees its limbs – twisted and wrong. Its skin is torn open in places and hanging down, he can see the whiteness of bone beneath the torn flesh. A thick spurt of blood wells to the surface and splatters onto the floor between him and the sink.
The creature snarls and Mike screams.
It drops to the ground, twisting in mid-air to land on all fours. Its head is twisted in the wrong angle, its spine is sticking out from its back. More blood falls as the flesh is jostled. A thick, rotting smell fills the air.
Mike keeps screaming.
The handle jangles again, harsher this time. Will’s voice filters through, he sounds panicked. Mike can’t make out the words over the sounds of his own screams.
The creature titters, skittering forward, and Mike stumbles back. He hits the door with a loud thud. He’s still screaming.

Summary
For the past two weeks, Mike has been having these weird dreams that make him relive his past trauma and plant fear for new ones. Not to mention the intense headaches and nosebleeds. He'll be fine, right? Well, he better be, because he hasn't told a single soul and doesn't plan on changing that.
Maybe he wants everything to not be fine.
One night, he goes to the kitchen and runs into none other than Will. Yeah, okay, let's see how he handles talking to the root of his problems when he was just spiraling about it all.

Summary
The last time he’d stood this close to the edge, Will had been gone, he’d thought he was dead. Nothing had mattered anymore, except protecting his friends, keeping those he had left safe. He hadn't wanted to live then, not without Will. He didn’t want to live now. Not because Will was gone—he was just across town in Mike’s room, probably not thinking about him or where he was for even a second—but because he didn’t deserve to. Because he was wrong, because he was sinful, because he didn’t matter, because nobody needed him and they never had. He’d just wanted them to need him because he’d needed them.
All he ever did was hurt the people he needed. Why would anyone ever need him? He was–
“Mike, where the hell are you?” Will’s voice latched a tether around his chest, pulled him back, pushed down his younger voice, silenced Troy and James.
---
It's October 1986, the Byers have been living with the Wheelers for 3 months now, and Mike can't sleep through the night, waking to nightmares and struggling to reconcile his growing awareness of his feelings for Will with the expectations of everyone around him. It all comes crashing down around him very quickly and suddenly (though it was a long time coming).

Summary
“You’re not boning, though, right?” he says, suddenly. He doesn’t know why he feels such an urge to bring it up again, as if the thought of Mike boning is not something that is CODE RED #1 at the top of Will's list of things to absolutely never think about. But also. Look–
“What? No, of course I’m not boning,” Mike splutters, turning a violent shade of scarlet, “how would I even hide that from you, I’m with you all the time–”
And then he falls silent, so fast that Will gets tonal whiplash from how fast Mike just went from saying boning over and over again to just clamping his mouth shut and staring at the wall across from them.
Will's trying his hardest to make it through fall semester in one piece. Unfortunately for his degree, he's being haunted by maybe-feelings for his best friend (metaphorically), and also a maybe-ghost with rather abysmal fashion sense (literally).
