mike crying the first time will kisses him because, suddenly, everything makes sense

au where will was never found in s1 so in s5 when everyone is in the upside down they each split off to explore and when mike is alone someone runs up behind him and puts a knife to his throat and he's terrified for a second but then he turns around and recognises that will byers glint in the eye even though he's nearly a grown man now and he just softly says "will?" in his will voice (which he hadn't used in years) with the most extreme heart eyes ever and will just drops the knife and goes "mike?" with the exact same expression and they just stare at each other for a moment and then hug each other so so tight and just cry into eachothers' arms

tomorrow i better see mike wheeler on his damn knees sobbing and being a snotty mess and telling will every little thing he loves about him and how he’s been the only one since the beginning and that will isn’t alone in being different he wants to be different with him
