Years after graduating, Mike Wheeler and Will Byers find themselves back where it all started-Hawkins High. Mike teaches history. Will runs the art room. To everyone else, they're just coworkers who seem to spend an unusual amount of time together. But behind classroom doors and quiet prep periods, they've been keeping a secret: they're already together. Between hallway whispers, suspicious students, and teachers who definitely notice more than they say, hiding their relationship gets harder every day. But maybe the biggest surprise isn't the rumors spreading through the school. It's realizing they might not want to hide anymore.
