Summary
They say when you’re revived, your soul snaps back like a rubber band. But Will didn’t die in a hospital; he died in a world of rot, and when he was pulled back in 1983, his soul sheared.
Now, in the heat of 1989, Will hides his scars and ignores how Mike Wheeler looks at him. He pretends to be fine, but he is actually exhausted. He is also not alone. A thirteen-year-old version of himself named Liam is standing in his bedroom mirror. Liam is pale and soaking wet, appearing exactly as Will did when he first went missing. Only Will can see him.
While Will deals with this ghost, Mike is struggling. He is unhappy in his relationship with Jane and is lashing out because he is confused about his feelings for Will. Everything changes when Will sees a vision in the Void. He discovers the truth about the night he disappeared and realizes the deadbolt on his front door didn't open by the Demogorgon.
Liam is protective. He wants Will to stop being afraid and start helping him face the truth. As their secrets come out, Will and Mike are forced to confront their trauma and the feelings they have been hiding from each other for years.
Or, where Will is haunted by a ghost of his younger self.

“Obviously,” Will huffs. “You know what I like.”

“Yeah,” Mike says softly. “I know.”
or
Will becomes the patron saint of pretending to sleep with guys to help them come out of the closet. Mike isn’t exactly thrilled with the situation.
