    Summary

    What starts as irritation turns into something neither of them knows how to name.

    They argue in class, stand too close in crowded hallways, and insist it doesn’t mean anything.

    Unfortunately, neither of them are very convincing.  

    or:
    it was never nothing and they are oblivious

    Summary

    Mike clutched at his jacket with blood-slick hands, shaking violently. “I’m a monster,” he sobbed. “I killed him. I tore him apart. I drank him. Will, I drank him—”

    “You’re alive,” he said hoarsely. “You’re here. You’re you. That’s what matters.”

    Mike’s head rolled back, eyes blazing again as his gaze drifted to Will’s throat. His breath hitched. A low, hungry sound crawled out of his chest.

    Will felt it. Felt the moment something inside Mike shifted.

    “Will,” Mike whispered, horrified. “Get away from me.”

    Too late.

    Summary

    Will Byers was never found in 1983. Now it is 1987, and someone unexpected appears to take him home.

    Will Byers was never found AU!

    This takes place before/during season five. (Kinda a rewrite of season 5, too.) Also kinda Byler focused :)

    Each chapter is named after a song, and I'm making a playlist with the songs for each chapter in order. This is the link: https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL4l3MR45RRoG4vVHnUx8p0Ojbs-i50L9g&si=QjjrXkJbubQHhrcZ

    Happy (or not so happy wink* wink*) reading!

    Summary

    The lighthearted moment is gone as easily as it came. Something heavy settles in Will’s stomach; dread. He hears children’s laughter, but there’s no one around. The ground he’s standing on isn’t stable anymore and without meaning to he starts moving, walking absentmindedly. Everything’s spinning, it’ll make him throw up. Looking at the sky makes him feel like he’s in a merry-go-round. He can’t hear his friends; he doesn’t even know where they are or where he is.

    He stumbles on his feet and holds onto a tree. He hears the distant sound of people calling for someone. His mind is rushing with images, flashes of faces he can’t quite place.

    “Will!” There's a hand rubbing circles on his back; he turns around to see the worried expressions of people he can’t exactly recognize, but they seem familiar. “Are you alright?” The girl with dark curls in front of him asks.

    He blinks.

    Mike is in front of him.
