    Summary

    Will Byers is depressed, easily hurt, all that jazz. He’s never been exactly comfortable with who he is, being a gay boy in the 1980’s throughout an openly homophobic town (and the overwhelming thought that, ‘if anyone knew, he’d be dead). With being tortured constantly with memories of the Upside Down (even though all of that is over) and struggling with internal conflicts, he has always been prone to..shut down. Ignore people, stop them when they try to help him. Pre-1985, it was usually all harmless (physically, I mean. Post-1985, he found himself getting into bad habits. Smoking, self-harm, withdrawing (which has really always been there if you look hard enough)....the list could go on. By 1987, he found himself drowning in it all, and he wasn’t sure if he could learn to swim through it all.

    Summary

    He could no longer control his body. He kissed harder and almost died when he felt Will do the same. Will put his hand on Mike’s shoulder so lightly it sent shivers through him. He pushed forward so Will had to lie on his back.

    It felt so serious and so quiet. Slow and careful but at the same time it felt like his body would explode. Mike felt his friend's tongue grace his lower lip and couldn’t stop a hum from slipping out. He put his hands on the ground next to Will to steady himself as he kissed him. Will lifted his head to meet him in the middle.

    Mike’s hands were cold from pressing into the snow. Once again Will’s tongue touched the inside of his lip and once again, Mike hummed, slightly louder this time. The sound out of his own mouth made him stop. It almost startled him and he looked down at Will with wide eyes. The eyes beneath him were big and now worried, almost scared.

    ...

    Will and El return to Hawkins after years away, forcing Will and Mike to decode the elusive signals between them - together.

    ALSO: I listened to smoke signals by Phoebe Bridgers the majority of the time while writing this, so I would recommend something angsty like that to make the hurt more hurtful! :)
