Summary
He’d stared at Will without really seeing him, so caught up in his own thoughts—a constant, monotonous beat of oh my God, I’m alive. Oh my God, Will has powers. Oh my God, he saved me.
And then—
Oh my God, he’s beautiful.
The thought had stopped him short, had landed with a soft and devastating clarity.
Beautiful.
That single word had broken something open within him, something he’d spent years reinforcing with lock and chain and prayer and denial.
After Will saves Mike from the demogorgon at the MAC-Z, Mike finally lets himself acknowledge a truth he's been running from for years:
He is in love with Will Byers.
Now all Mike has to do is come to terms with that truth—especially when Joyce sees it too.

The 18-month gap between s4 and s5 told from Mike's POV with minor other POV's as the story progresses. The gap has been lengthened to encapsulate more time passing. They start at 16, but by chapter 6 they're 17 1/2 with them turning 18 chapter 32/34.

Everything is tagged appropriately. If you choose to read, that is your prerogative. No smut occurs until chapter 36.

Summary
Will’s life in New York has been one of a kind. The bright lights, the constant noise, the towering skyscrapers — it all still feels new to him, even after a year and a half of living here. Sometimes overwhelming, sure, but good. Really good.
When Will met Anthony, it was like time slowed down. He was so charming. So full of respect. Honest. Caring. Non-judegmental. He was perfect — so goddamn perfect — and he made Will’s life even better than it already was.
Anthony encouraged Will’s art, complimented him, always made time for him. He listened. He stayed. He made Will feel safe. And that had to mean something, right?POST-SEASON 5!! (1990, ALL CHARACTERS 19)
