    Summary

    The past just over 48 hours had not been fun for anyone, but especially not Mike. His mom and dad were in the hospital, his sister was kidnapped, and he had heard the four chimes. But, nonetheless, he goes home with Will, because at least one of them needs some sleep.

    OR

    I’m putting Mike through the horrors because he deserves to have a breakdown and a cuddle with Will.

    Summary

    A Wheeler in every aspect he wasn’t. A Byers in every aspect he was.

    Too many emotions and too imperfect to be a Wheeler. Not enough emotions and not enough of who he truly was to be a Byers.

    Mike was Mike.

    And he hated every bit of himself.

    or, Mike is way too repressed in S5 Vol 1 and I need a BIG FAT UGLY cry from him!!!

    Summary

    "...I was loved, and I had people who constantly kept me safe. I was never alone. And, most importantly, I understood love. I was always surrounded by it.” He crept closer, if that was even possible. Mike thought he was hallucinating. “You were the one who taught me love, Mike. You always were there, always steadying me, always protecting me. You were always loving me, even when you didn’t know it.”

    Or

    Mike being a wreck, and Will kissing it better.
