this story is based on the song heather by conan gray, in which will is jealous of mike and eleven's relationship because he has a crush on mike. will believes mike will never like him back because mike is straight, but what if will is wrong and mike isn't straight? this story takes place during season three. it will be similar, but not exact. only certain events will be accurate to the actual show, but it'll mostly be stuff that i make up. 🛑 i do not own any of the characters from the actual show or any of the plot from the actual show! the things i do own is the plot that i make up or any oc's that could potentially be added!🛑 ⚠️ TRIGGER WARNING ⚠️ swears and/or slurs WILL be used in this story ONLY because the 80's were a very homophobic time, so i apologize in advance if anyone is hurt by it. i myself am part of the LGBTQ+ community, so i can completely understand if you get upset.

(i wrote this 3 YEARS AGO! i'm aware the writing and plots are horrible. i've grown as a writer. i recommend reading my other book that i'm writing currently, "hypnotize") - will got bullied pretty much everyday. mike wheeler was his biggest bully. he always picked on will for the most stupidest things.. but what if mike had a crush on him .. (kids are in high school in this story)

will is the president of the belittled flower club; also known as the sissy club to bullies. when the bullying gets violent, mike wheeler, one of the most popular boys in school, decides to join the club in attempt to end the bullying, but he finds a lot more than flowers.

sad boys fall in love

☆.｡.:*The 80's aren't a great time to be gay- at least in Hawkins, Indiana. But Mike and Will have been secretly dating for years, and everything is perfect. Or maybe it's more accurate to say that everything WAS perfect... ☆.｡.:* includes mature themes. ©itsjustbyler 2019

☆.｡.:*In which Mike's family owns a charity. An honest-to-god charity. They're THAT rich. Mike volunteers there (a little against his will) and it's there he's forced to keep company to Will, a boy who's never spoken a word in his life. But what if their connection starts to grow a little beyond the expected? ☆.｡.:* mature themes. ©itsjustbyler 2019

☆.｡.:*(book two, 𝑹𝒆𝒍𝒂𝒑𝒔𝒆, is now out- inside this book ) ☆.｡.:*In which Will has a problem. A big one. A problem he needs urgent help with, a problem he can't really tell anyone. He can't seem to control it anymore, and it's only getting worse- can Mike find out and help him before it's too late? ☆.｡.:* contains mature subjects. ☆.｡.:* ©itsjustbyler 2019, 2020 𝒉𝒊𝒈𝒉𝒆𝒔𝒕 𝒓𝒂𝒏𝒌𝒊𝒏𝒈𝒔: #1 in 𝑩𝒚𝒍𝒆𝒓 9/26/19, 10/9/19, 10/25/19, 11/1/19 # 4 in 𝑩𝒚𝒍𝒆𝒓 9/28/19, 11/17/19 # 3 in 𝑩𝒚𝒍𝒆𝒓 10/1/19, 10/30/19 # 2 in 𝑩𝒚𝒍𝒆𝒓 10/4/19, 10/19/19, 10/29/19, 11/3/19 #20 in 𝒂𝒅𝒅𝒊𝒄𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 8/10/20 #11 in 𝒂𝒅𝒅𝒊𝒄𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 8/12/20
