Tentativity - Byler

Will Byers has been through immense trauma in his life, and he decides to keep his feelings out of harms way, he needs to close himself off to everyone. Everyone, except for Mike.

Mike Wheeler is clueless, if not a little delusional, and totally, absolutely, 100% unaffected by their years of torment. He's completely fine. He swears it.

They both are in love with the other, but they are also both too scared to say anything. And it's all downhill from here.

They're both, as they say, tentative.
