Sami was in America to help his little brother, Danny. He couldn't speak English, and wasn't planning to be there for long. And then the world ended.

-Always together? -Always. This is the story about two friends with a rare feeling in common. They're trying to figure out what is it. But they need each other to know... Mike Wheeler and Will Byers are really close since kindergarten, but they're getting even closer during this recent time. Why? Why now? Why them?

☆.｡.:*In Which Will takes a summer job in a small town restaurant, and Mike is the son of the restaurants owners- oh, and also a huge asshole. In which Will is set on avoiding Mike- but Mike is set on getting him. ©itsjustbyler 2020

hiding your feelings for him won't change them, you know?

after all the times you destroyed me, i needed you like the air i breathe. ⚠️ story contains addiction, substance abuse, and other sensitive topics

˚ ༘♡ ⋆｡˚In which Will returns from a long, sun-soaked summer in California looking... different. Taller, tanner, maybe even hotter. Mike almost doesn't recognize his childhood best friend - not just because of the way Will looks now, but because of how he feels around him. Things with El haven't been right for a while, and Mike's starting to question everything - including who he really is, and who he really wants. As the school year starts and old friendships are reignited, Mike has to face the truth: maybe what he felt for Will wasn't just friendship. And maybe it still isn't. ˚ ༘♡ ⋆｡˚ Started: 07/06/2025 Ended: ongoing Includes mature themes I'll try to post atleast 2-3 chapters every day! Pre-apologising if I don't!

during the 18 long, excruciating months the byers and wheelers lived together, mike and will share the same thin wall. the tension between will and mike is heavy, they barely talk, barely look at each other anymore, they brush past each other. they are strangers living inside the same house and sharing a wall. mwtfdyd

Is this wrong, or have people in my life convinced me it is?
