Summary
This is the first girl who’s ever asked Mike out — something he had, in the not too distant past, been terrified would never happen. And Mike just stands there, feeling like his dining hall dinner is about to crawl back up his esophagus.
Jeremy, Saint Jeremy, nudges him with an elbow. “He’s kind of private about it, but Mike actually has someone back home.”
Mike turns his head to look at Jeremy, expecting a knowing smile or the hint of a wink. But Jeremy actually looks sincere, which makes Mike’s eyebrows sink down, almost to the top of his nose.
“Will, right?” Jeremy supplies, forever trying to be helpful. “He’s at CalArts?”

Summary
Fantasy AU.
**
According to Joyce, with the witch’s death, the land turned bad. Fields of rich, black soil turned to sand and crumbled away until even the most experienced farmers struggled to make anything take root. The woods, once filled with game and birds, were eerily silent. It was as if all life fled when the witch drew their final breath. All of this ‘used to be’ was second hand knowledge to Will; he’d never seen it any other way.
He didn’t mind the quiet or the difficult land. He’d never cared for chatter and concocting new methods to enrich his fields was a challenge, nothing more. Will tended his crops, mixed things like horse dung, egg shells, and rotting vegetation into the earth to help it thrive. He liked to whisper to his seedlings when no one could see and would happily traverse back and forth on Damora’s back as many times as was needed to bring water to them when the sky refused to offer any. Every time Will set a seed to ground, he offered a prayer. Sometimes it felt like the earth heard him, that he could actually hear it answer.

Summary
Dustin shrugs, then faces him. “Before Will went missing and all that Upside Down stuff, you guys used to be so close. Closer to each other than the rest of us.”
“Right,” Mike says. His mouth is a little dry. “But we’re okay now.”
“Yeah, closer than ever, by the looks of it,” Dustin says happily. “It’s good you guys patched things up.”
Mike almost laughs. If by “patched things up” he meant “had a full-blown fight over their bottled-up feelings that ended in love confessions and a steamy makeout session” then yeah, Will and Mike sure did patch things up well and good.

Mike and Will have been dating for a while now, and it's been perfect, aside from one glaring issue: they’ve been doing it in secret. Soon they’ll realize sneaking around isn’t all that it’s cracked up to be…Bookmarked by radiantgrandma

Summary
“The water,” Will says, crossing to Mike’s side. His hand, the one turned the shade of fresh ink, extends to cover Mike’s, and there’s that thing again, that sensation of something, nothing, everything. Sparks and warmth, and cool, steady constants and everything in between. Mike could stay here forever, but his throat is getting drier by the minute, so that’s probably not very realistic.
will and mike survived the upside down which unfortunately forces them to confront their Shit capital S. official liza qulizalfos signed apology for ending the future is a benevolent black hole like that.

“Do we like him?” Steve asks, eyeing down the boy that’s currently holding Will’s hand while he talks to Hopper.
“No,” Mike says, glaring.
“Yes,” Max emphasizes, elbowing Mike. “They’re good for each other.”
“That doesn’t mean I have to like him,” Mike snorts.
