Hide your brothers, Hide your sons. Richie Wheeler(Tozier) and Mike Wheeler are on the scene. They may not know it yet, but once something gets pointed out to them by their friends they'll never be able to go back to the way things were.

Day of Monozygotic
~Mike POV~
Today is June first.
My birthday, the day I came into this world, the day the people I love celebrate my birth...........and Richie's.
So, when I was born on June first of 2004, I came into this world as a twin. The Wheeler twins as we've come to be known as are complete opposites. I'm the oldest by two minutes and known as the reserved one, the one with one or two close friends, the smart one. Richie's the younger of us two, the hyperactive one, the socialite, the dramatic one. Now don't get me wrong, he's a great brother, he just has quite the limited vocabulary, gets excited easily and then has trouble controlling himself. When we were five he got drunk on red kool-aid and we had to tie a rope around his stomach so he wouldn't leave the backyard.
I, on the other hand, never like to draw attention to myself. I sit in the back off the class with my three friends and focus my attention to their problems instead of my own. People believe me and Richie are twins sure, if you look at us we're almost identical bar for the straighter hair he has and his coke bottle glasses. But personality-wise, we're nothing alike, Richie can't stop being the center of attention. He has a group of six friends and they do everything together. They're all really popular but they call themselves the losers club to be ironic.
Anyway, today is the day we turn fifteen.
~General POV~
Mike woke up cold, pulling his covers further up around his neck and nuzzling his face back into his pillow. He stayed like that for a few minutes before his alarm went off, signaling the start of another day. He reluctantly sat up and stretched his arms out above his head, back cracking as he did. He ran a hand through his wavy hair as he got out of bed and looked at the calendar that was propped up on his desk. June first, the first thought that popped into his head was his birthday, the next being he only had two weeks of school left. He walked across the hall and brushed his teeth and hair before going back into his bedroom to change out of his sweaty pajamas. He pulled on a striped button up shirt over old clash shirt, buttoning it up almost all the way, leaving the top two buttons undone. Changing out of his PJ bottoms he pulled on some black jeans and finally walked over to his desk to grab Richie's birthday gift before he walked downstairs to the kitchen.
He walked downstairs to be greeted by Nancy ruffling up his hair. He swatted her hand away, pulling a hand through his hair and scowled at her.
'Happy birthday squirt' she said grabbing some eggs before sitting down at the island to eat.
' I just combed my hair!' Mike whined trying to flatten it out again.
He grabbed some breakfast, poking Holly's cheek as he passed by her. She was giggling her head off at Richie who was doing impressions and making funny faces at her. Mike sat down after grabbing a waffle and looked over at Richie.
