Hawkins,Indiana 1985 January 3th

It was a cold evening in the begging of January.

The young Byers boy was sitting on his bed drawing in sketchbook which he got from his mom for his birthday last year.That's how he wanted to spent the last days of Christmas break.

Suddenly there was a knock on his door.

"Come in" he said he didn't looked up he assumed the person was his mom or brother.

"Hi!" they said Will looked up from his drawing and looked at the person, who entered the room and shout the door behind them.It was his best friend, the one and only Mike Wheeler.

"Hey I didn't know you were coming over"he said.He was surprised that Mike was here with him instead spending time with eleven.They spent so much time together ever since the snowball.

"Well here I am" Mike responded smiling nervously.Why was he nervous?Will asked himself .

Mike took a seat next to him on the bed and Will put his sketchbook away.Will looked at Mike's face admire it for a moment.

"Mike are you okay?" he asked.

"Yes I'm fine I just.....I need to tell you something"Mike said his gaze was fixed on the floor.

Will grabbed Mike's hand and gave it a squeeze ,just like how Mike did a few months earlier .

Mike looked up at his best friend, blushing a little.

"Mike, you can tell me everything okay?I'm your best friend" Will said reassuringly his hands still on top of the other's.Mike nodded.

"Me and el broke up"he said.

"Oh I'm sorry Mike I know how much she meant to you "Will said trying to comfort his friend.

"I broke up with her actually"this statement made Will confused.Ever since he came back from the upside down all Mike could talk about was eleven and now all of a sudden they break up?It  doesn't make sense.

"Why ?"Will asked.

"I realized I don't like her like that"he said and looked at Will. Will motioned him to continue and so he did.

"She's amazing really but I ...I like someone else"he said.Will was curious which girl was the one Mike liked.

"Who is she?"he asked.She. it has to be a girl. He's not like you will,he's not a fairy. Will thought to himself.He had been in love with Mike ever since they were kids and now he has to listen Mike talking about another girl,but that's what friends do.Right?

"Well" Mike began "she's shorter then me,she has brown hair and hazel eyes, she's pretty and cute.She's so smart and kind.I know her ever since we were kids,and she's my friend"Mike paused for a moment debating if he should tell Will or not he decided that he will tell him.

"And it's not a girl"he finished.Will looked surprised.Mike Wheeler likes boys?

"Oh"that's all Will could say.He was speechless.

"Oh" Mike repeated "so you know anyone who fits in this description?"Mike asked with teary eyes.Will looked at him and then realized who Mike was talking about.His expression softened.

"I really like you will and I understand if you don't feel the same way but"he got cut off by soft his lips on his own.The kiss was short and sweet,both boy's stomach was erupted in butterflies and fireworks.

Will pulled away to look at Mike they were both blushing messes they looked at each other and started giggling.Will laid down on his bed and Mike cuddled up to him.Mike's head was on Will's chest and he hugged Will's waist.Will put his arms around Mike hugging him shortly they both fall asleep in each other's  arms.

Later Joyce entered Will's room to find two young boys asleep.She went to the phone to call Karen,to tell her that Mike stays that night.When she hung up the phone she returned to her son's bedroom.She smiled at the sight and she put a warm blanket overclthem.She turned the lights off and exited the room.
