a fault you could follow (if you weren't so afraid of falling) by refrigeratorlights

Summary
And for the first time in a long time, Mike isn’t scared.
He doesn’t feel ashamed of the way his heart beats too fast, or the way it’s always known where it belongs. He doesn’t feel like the little boy he once was—hands red and aching, glitter still clinging stubbornly to his fingers, terrified that wanting something too much meant losing it.
Mike Wheeler has always believed that loving Will Byers is something to endure.
Something quiet and private. Something you survive rather than choose. Something you bury beneath loyalty, fear, and the unspoken understanding that wanting too much is dangerous—especially when the world already knows exactly where to hurt you.But some truths don’t stay buried.
As a year of silence gives way to proximity, to touch, and to the quiet devastation of being seen, Mike is forced to confront what he’s been running from all along: not the fear of losing Will, but the fear of wanting him openly. Of choosing him without bracing for impact.
Because earthquakes don’t always destroy things.
Sometimes, they reveal what was always there—waiting to be held without shaking.

Mike tells himself it’s just a drawing.
A pen mark on his skin.
A stupid doodle.

Summary
"You'll stay with us."
Those words, while there were countless times that Will had imagined hearing them come from Mike’s mouth, terrified him once reality began to sink in.
Will. His brother. His mom. All under the same roof with his lifelong best friend who he also happened to be hopelessly and deeply in love with. Not to mention his best friend’s sisters and his parents. One of whom was far less conspicuous about his views on those who were “different.”

Summary
Mike comes to a horrible conclusion, Will doesn’t want to be his friend anymore. But he’s not gonna accept this, he’s gonna do everything he can to gain Will’s friendship back.
He’s right, of course, Will doesn’t want to be his friend, he wants to be more, but Mike doesn’t need to know that, so Will is trying to put distance between them as Mike insists on closing the gap.

Summary
Will now lives in the Wheelers basement. With how occupied Jonathan is and the situation he's in with Mike, he is basically alone. Will never liked the feeling of being alone and its getting to the point its unbearable again.

Summary
Heather Munson is smart, popular, and perfectly sane—everything her older brother Eddie is not. At Hawkins High, no one would guess they’re related, and Heather intends to keep it that way… until Eddie goes missing and is wanted for murder.
Forced to spend her senior year spring break with Hawkins’ most unlikely misfits, Heather uncovers a secret that’s been hiding in town for years—one that could exonerate Eddie and, maybe, just maybe, make her a misfit too.

Summary
Sixteen months after the end of the world, Hawkins is quiet. No monsters. No emergencies. Just heat, cicadas, and long summer days that stretch on forever.
With Eleven away and Will living in his house, Mike finds himself noticing things he never let himself see before—the way silence feels fuller when Will is near, the way shared space turns into shared nights, the way something unspoken keeps building between them.
Will has always loved carefully, showing his feelings through presence instead of words. Mike has always been afraid of saying the wrong thing and breaking something precious.
As summer presses in and excuses fall away, they’re forced to face what’s been there all along: a slow, steady love waiting to be chosen.

Summary
Following the destruction of Vecna (and the effects of the Gate merging with Hawkins), the town is left not only scarred by fissures but by a creeping illness.
Nancy, now an intern at the Indianapolis Star, doesn't believe the official story of "contaminated water" or "earthquake fallout." She realizes the symptoms are a slow, biological side-effect of living too close to the Upside Down's newly exposed ecosystem. Nancy must expose the truth and those who choose to hide it with the help of her friends to save Hawkins once again.
As the danger persists, old relationships fracture under the pressure of survival, and the complicated, long-buried connection between Nancy and Steve ignites amidst the chaos. Choose your weapon wisely.

Summary
Karen was nervous. She often was about her children, worried they’ll turn out cruel like their father or marry too young like her. The latest subject of her worry was Mike.
Mike was tired. She could tell it wasn’t the normal teenage staying up too late tired. It was a bone deep ache for rest, it was obvious through the way he moved the food around on his plate and the way he seemed to ghost around the house.
(Or Karen’s POV throughout the years as she tries to comfort her son.)
