Byler Multi-Chapter fic
Mike had never thought a lot about his future; he was more of an in the moment kinda guy. But suddenly it was time for the party to separate, find their own places in the world and go to university. It seemed everyone had decided on what they wanted. Everyone except Mike.
Basically, Michael Wheeler struggles with the feeling of being left behind and figuring out what he wants to do with his life. He struggles even more with the sudden and crushing lack of William Byers in his life .
Warnings: Hinted depression but never confirmed, mentions of anxiety, possibly more in later chapters?

SEQUEL TO 'KEEP IT BETWEEN US' SO READ THAT FIRST!!! (or don't idrc) Mike and Will are finally off to college, along with their other friends. Mike still makes sure to keep an eye out for him, but sometimes he just doesn't quit. Meanwhile, Will isn't making it any easier for him. They're away from home and living on campus now which can cause a whole lot of new drama... and it sure ain't high school drama. (1991) *Focused on Byler along with other small side plots* ⚠️Warning: Sensitive topics!Complete
Should I Stay or Should I Go -- Byler
After a long and grueling friendship of secret one-sided love, William Byers is ready to give up on Mike as Mike finally begins to discover his true feelings. However, Will is soon taken into custody by his father, Lonnie, and is taken far away from Hawkins. Mike must come to terms with his own emotions and find his best friend. Can they survive together or get burnt by love? I hate to say that I have stopped writing this fic of Wattpad and have moved to A03 where I am currently rewriting it. I would love it if you read my retelling there! I would like to say though, if you want an incomplete ending, the first part is finished here. My story on A03 is the same title and Authors Name as on here. Love to see you there! Edit--4/10/24 I had taken this fic down for a while and spontaneously decided to put it back up. I wrote this at a very different point in my life and am not necessarily planning on returning to this story on A03 or Wattpad, however, the first section is complete and has a semi-definitive ending. If you decide to read the rest (aka S2), you will just need to leave a lot to imagination. I am reuploading this tonight at 8:00PM EST. Thank you again to anyone that has enjoyed this fic and supported me at any point! !!!Trigger Warnings!!! -Suicidal Thoughts -Abuse -Very Aggressive Language and Derogatory terms -possibly will be gore-ish subjects (I mean duh it's stranger things lol) (If there are any others I will add them here) #3 in #Will Byers--8/6/22 #11 in #tag--10/1/22 #33 in #byler--10/1/22 Enjoy!!!Complete

Keep it between us | byler
Will Byers never really cared for Mike's company ever since they left middle school. I mean he always teased him, was really immature and to top it all off, he was full of himself. Will couldn't stand Mike Wheeler. But now it's the end of junior year. And feelings change... A lot.
