｡･: ▍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

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.

Please read the last thing I have posted if your interested in some byler content.

Playing truth or dare is always fun and games... until someone gets hurt.

"It's cold Mike please come inside". Will shivered in the freezing cold watching Mike storm down the steps and into the snow. ••••• Both Will and Mike reveal their love for each other, but Mike is unsure about his sexuality

Accounts of both Mike & Will, set within the timespan of S4 (1985 - 1986). As each day passes, the two boys find themselves struggling to heal their broken bond, and the distance between them makes them wonder if their friendship could have ever been.. more.

An alternate version of what happens between Mike and Will in season 3 ep 3 it will slightly follow the storyline of some episodes after that then onto season 4. It's crossposted on ao3 with the same title my username is pj0295 so you can find it. I drafted earlier chapters to focus solely on season 4 with brief mentions of what happened during the season 3 story arc so check ao3 to read everything that happened in this story during season 3 and season 4 It will eventually contain mentions of depression and slight suicidal thoughts (it's not really directly addressed) Probably a long slow burn, so I can have something to do during this quarantine Start: 12/31/19

"eleven, whatever you do, don't touch Will, okay? if there's anyone you should be upset with, it's me, not Will"
