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.Series

Summary
“That’s not an answer,” said Jonathan, his eyes narrowed. “You haven’t been doing what I think you have, have you?”
“What?” asked Will, “Coursework?”
“Mating with Mike.”
Will had picked up his satchel full of art supplies that he’d left in the living room earlier that day, and at these words he dropped it with a resounding crash.
“Mating with Mike?” he repeated disbelievingly, “Are you insane?”
Will spends the day in Mike’s nest, unknowing of the implications. Everyone else spells it out for him.

Summary
“Is it cause you used to have a crush on me?” Mike asked, abruptly.
“What!” It was Will’s turn to blush harder, giving him a glare reserved for Mike Wheeler and Mike Wheeler only. “No. God. That was ages ago. I’ve been past that for a long time.”
Mike motioned like he’d made his point. “See? So? It wouldn’t be weird.”
So, Mike likes guys. Fine, Will can live with that. Except now Mike's worried about having fallen behind and would really like some help practicing how to kiss a guy from his also-into-guys best friend. And Will is trying really, really hard to be a good mentor to him, so what is he going to do, say no?

Summary
Will could not help the question that burst from his lips, it had been ricocheting around his brain like a stray tennis ball and was simultaneously causing him the most excitement, distress and exhilaration he had felt in his entire life.
“Are you my husband?” he blurted. Mike blinked in surprise.
“What?”
Will lost his nerve slightly. He wondered if he had been horribly wrong about this, and maybe in this strange timeline he was just a friend staying over and maybe he’d made a mistake and the daughter wasn’t really his daughter and—
Will faltered. “Um, I — well, I just thought you were — I mean, you are my husband, right?”
Mike looked very alarmed. He was staring at Will as though he had grown a second head.
“Obviously…?” he said, “Are you feeling alright? Did your mom make you try her D-I-Y coffee again?”
When nineteen-year-old Will Byers wakes up to find himself in his forty-three-year-old body, he must—with no experience whatsoever—play the part of world-renowned freelance painter, father of two very troublesome teenagers, and most strangely of all: Mike Wheeler’s husband.
