Summary
At some point, Mike had come up with a plan that he thought was pretty genius. Every time Will had a nightmare, he would quickly wrap the boy up in his arms before his friend even had a second to protest. He would hold the boy until he fell asleep and, often, they would wake up in the same position. He did this in the hopes he would not only comfort his friend, but also make him feel less embarrassed about his nightmares.
Before he could lose his nerve, Mike laid back down on the bed, opening his arms wide; he hoped Will had adjusted to the darkness enough to see his movement.
“C’mere,” He blurted.
--
Or, Will wakes up from a nightmare and Mike helps in the best way he knows how: Cuddles. Which would be fine, except for the fact he's been trying to hide his feelings for his best friend since the moment he touched down in California.

Summary
Will stirred sleepily to the sound of voices and a heavy weight beside him.
“Whazup?” he mumbled, lifting his head off the pillow and blinking in the darkness.
“Shhh, it’s fine,” replied Mike’s soft voice, breaking through the stillness that had followed Will’s muffled question, “I’ve got this one. You can go back to sleep.”
Mike and Will take turns staying up with Holly, who has begun to have nightmares about the monsters in Hawkins. Things take a curiously domestic turn.

Summary
“You okay?” Mike asks him.
Will turns to look at Mike. The light of the TV is projected on the side of his face, bathing his skin in greens and oranges. Sometimes Will feels like the secret to digging himself out of the wreckage of his childhood is hidden in Mike. There are days when the only thing that can dull the sharp pressure of grief in his ribs is Mike’s presence at his side; steady, thrumming. Will knows the day when he will have to detach himself is coming fast, but here in this basement, where nothing has changed in over a decade, time seems to have come to a screeching halt. It’s just the two of them, sat in the last place they were innocent together.
“Yeah,” Will whispers, “I’m okay.”
or; The Party's senior year of high school, in ebbs and flows.
