❝ I HATE YOU, I LOVE YOU I HATE THAT I LOVE YOU ❞ ••• Mike Wheeler and Will Byers are total opposites. Will has just moved to Hawkins, Indiana with no intentions of trusting a single soul, all because of his broken past. Mike has lived in Hawkins his entire life, he's the typical casanova, throwing pick up lines to every person he knows. However, even this flirty boy has his own secrets to keep. ••• NOTE: I don't own Stranger Things or any of the characters here. All rights go to the duffer brothers.

Mike looked down at the shaking boy and wrapped his arms tightly around him, burying his freckled face in the smaller boy's soft brown hair whilst whispering into his ear: "I'll surround you and keep you safe... everyday. Everyday. I know you never like to be alone, and now you don't have to." And for the first time in a long time, Will felt whole.

｡･: ▍𝐓𝐄𝐀𝐌 Will Byers and Mike Wheeler were practically inseparable. They had been best friends for nearly a decade and planned to remain that way for eternity. Nobody was capable of destroying the unique bond they shared except for Will's step-sister, Eleven. She wasn't intentionally trying to sabotage their friendship. In fact, she had no knowledge about Will's massive crush on Mike. However, when Mike flew to California for spring break, she wanted him all to herself. He seemed to be perfectly fine with that. He loved her more than anyone - or so Will thought. After El is brought to a top-secret location to regain her telekinetic powers, Mike is finally able to spend some time with Will. Her absence is enough to make him realize that she isn't the one he loves after all. © BYLERHOE ┊ W. BYERS X M. WHEELER
