Summary
“So assuming I am not an idiot this time, Tammy, whoever that is supposed to be, is me right? The person who isn’t like you that you had a crush on was, or is, me?”
Will couldn't read the expression on Mike’s face, hell he could barely look at him. Tears began to actually leak out of his eyes and all he could do is slowly nod his head. “I am so sorry Mike, I just couldn’t bring myself to ever tell you. As much as I wanted to, I was afraid to ruin our friendship. But it’s okay. I will get over this crush. It was really about me learning to accept myself anyway. I see that now. Please don’t be mad.”
Will was trying to calm himself. That was the truth right? Self acceptance. Will was looking down, fidgeting with his hands when Mike’s next words came out and Will’s head shot up so fast he was pretty sure he’d have whiplash.
“Was it only a crush?”
or
After Will comes out it forces Mike Wheeler to be honest with himself. What was really going on in Mike's head during season 5. Will is convinced Mike can be just his Tammy, until he isn't.

Summary
“No, you could’ve. You’re Mike the Brave, remember?”
“Yeah, in DND Will, not real life.” Mike groans, stretching out across the smooth marble island. He smiles a little at Will bringing up his DND character. He hasn't let himself remember DND since Eddie. “In real life I’m… not. I always run away when I’m scared.”
"That's not true. You stayed with me when I was possessed by the Mind Flayer, remember?”
Mike says too quickly, “You’re not scary.”
“Not even when I’m being controlled like a puppet by an interdimensional shadow monster?”
He says it like it’s funny, but Mike doesn’t think it’s something he can laugh about. He sits up, catching Will’s gaze with his. Mike’s eyes flick between the two black eyes before he says,
“Never.”
or, Somewhere along the way, Mike Wheeler forgot how to be The Heart.

Summary
"“W-what happened?” Will asks, and sure enough, through his watery gaze Mike sees that same thing he’s heard in Will’s voice, or better, doesn’t see, because it’s an absence, an emptiness, even if Mike can’t quite pinpoint it. Something is still wrong.
“Oh honey, you went in a trance for a moment there, scared us to death. But you fought, you fought that vicious monster, and now you’re back,” Joyce explains, her voice soft.
Will frowns, the confusion in his gaze deepening. “What? What monster?” He asks, and Mike’s knees tremble. Something is very wrong.
“Vecna,” Mike replies before he can stop himself, and Will’s gaze finally turns to him.
And there’s nothing there. Will’s expression as he gazes at his best friend is… blank.
“Who are you?” Will asks, and the world comes crashing down on Mike."Will uses his powers to save his friends, and Vecna strikes back. When he wakes up, he doesn't remember anything about Vecna and the Upside Down, and he doesn't remember Mike. Mike is crushed, but he could never give up on Will. So he helps him get his memories back, and put an end to this evil once and for all.

Summary
It’s been seven years since the end of the war.
Seven years since Will lost everything.
Living in exile, he knows the evil that divided kingdoms was never really defeated. And, when captured by the prince of the enemy kingdom, the fragile new life he built for himself begins to crumble.
Will must hide his magic, and his identity, and survive in a world that has already written him dead. But when the shadows of his past catch up to him, the truth begins to bleed through the cracks in the Wall—and both princes are forced to confront the battle that never truly ended.

Summary
Heavy breaths break through the loud ringing in his ears. He knows they’re his, but they sound as if they should belong to another. His pale hands tremble as they grasp the rough pavement he’s trying to push himself up from. He barely registers the spikes of pain as he gets on his feet. No, he’s focused on something so much more important. The ringing in his ears and the pain in his shoulder don’t even compare to the sight of Will, just feet away.
What if Stranger Things followed that document with the cut plotlines? What if Will did go to Camazotz and everything was different?
Okay, this was published before, but I rewrote some of this chapter and added a ton of stuff. Also, I know that the document is not true, I don't care it. This is my take on that.

Summary
“Hey…” he started, getting Will’s attention back immediately. Hazel, brightening eyes met chocolate sparkling irises. “If we end up, you know— not dying—, we should go to the arcade.”
Will tilted his head slightly, a frown in his forehead showing his confusion. “Okay? It’s been a while since we’ve gone there, though. Why the arcade? Has Lucas or Dustin mentioned—”
And Mike cut him, quickly, before his courage could turn into regret. “No, uh– I meant— just you and me.”
Will forgot how to breath. And even though he could swear his heart stopped working, it sent all of his blood straight to his cheeks, now tinted with a noticeable pink blush. “Oh.” it’s what he managed to say.
The signs… turned a snowball into an avalanche.
And just as Robin’s talk reminded him, Mike continued talking.
Continued rolling that snowball.

Hopeful, lingering promises are made. New feelings are exposed. And a new life awaits for them to take the chance they're finally given.

Of being together. -

Summary
“Where are you going?” Hopper asked.
“My base? Are you guys coming or do you want the flower dogs to eat you?”
“Flower do- oh, demos.”
“What the hell is a demo?”
“Demogorgon? From that game your friends like, ‘Dungeons and Dragons’?”
“I don’t have ‘friends.’” Will said, wrinkling his nose and almost recoiling at the idea. “At least, none I remember.” He whispered, looking away before shaking his head and continuing on the tracks. “And what’s Dungeons and Dragons? It sounds like a fantasy book.”

Summary
“Mike,” Will had said to him, voice calm despite how hard it was for him to even make a sound. He didn’t try to sit up, but Mike wasn’t sure he could, even if he wanted to. “I need you to kill me.”
Mike shook his head, holding Will closer to his chest.
“Mike, please.” Will pleaded, closing his eyes against the light, or perhaps it was too much effort to keep them open. “I don’t want to hurt you.”
“You won’t,” Mike whispered, surprised at how vulnerable he sounded, at the shake and utter defeat in his voice. “You won’t kill me, Will. Because we’re the same. We can’t hurt each other, even at the end of the world.”
;
It's been three years since the start of the zombie apocalypse and Mike is finally returning home. He discovers that not only is he not the sole survivor of Hawkins, but that his friends and sister are alive, too.
