Summary
“Did I do something wrong?” Mike questions, mouth twisted in a frown, eyes less wide than they were a few moments ago, sleepiness gone. His arms stay at his sides, although his fingers fiddle with his sleeves. “What did I do wrong?”
Will frowns back. “You didn’t do anything wrong.”
Mike doesn’t look like he believes him. Will doesn’t blame him. “Then why do you keep leaving?”
The world ends, and then some. Mike and Will find each other again, amidst the debris and distance.

Summary
Will Byers hasn’t seen all of his friends in the same room since 1994, and he hasn’t spoken to Mike Wheeler since 1995—the year he told him how he felt and watched their friendship fall apart. But when Max and Lucas buy their first house, they throw a Y2K New Year’s Eve party, dragging everyone back together for the first time in years.
Mike and Will are older now, different now, but when they see each other again—all sharp edges, awkward tension, and a lifetime of unresolved feelings—it’s like nothing ever changed. Except everything has.

Summary
Wherein Mike believes he’s being obvious, Will doesn’t know what he believes, and the pair of them could use a lesson or two in effective communication. Somehow all of this has both nothing and everything to do with five years' worth of school dances.
