Summary
There are three things Will and Mike learn on a random afternoon after high school graduation:
- Teen magazine quizzes are way more intense than expected.
- They are wildly unprepared for college.
- Taking advice from anonymous “fever confessions” is a terrible idea.Unfortunately, they only realize the third one after they’ve already started acting on the first two.
Or:
Will and Mike accidentally read a very inappropriate teen magazine and decide the best way to prepare for college is to practice being less inexperienced… on each other.

Summary
As much of a mystery as Mike was, Will had come to understand at least one thing. Mike needed to be needed.
Will felt like a lightbulb had gone off in his head when he’d come to the realisation.
The dealing, the sex, the taunting texts – it all made sense. People came to Mike to get what they needed, whether that be drugs, an orgasm, or the last word in a fiery exchange.
The goading messages were a test, Will had decided – a constant push and pull, Mike seeing whether Will would come back and defend himself against his harsh words.
In a way, Will was no better than the people traipsing Mike’s door at all hours of the night. He did need something from Mike, just the same as everyone else.Or:
Ending up on the infamous roster of the college drug dealer was not in Will's college plans. He'd had a list — a real one, written down — of how this year was supposed to go. Mike Wheeler was not on it. None of this was.

Summary
“Is he your boyfriend now, Wheeler?” the jock shouted after them. Will flinched, expecting him to remove his arm from around his shoulders. He learned when he was young that insinuating that you were gay was one of the worst insults you could receive.
The other boy didn’t let go of him, though. Instead, he used his free hand to reach back and flip them off. “Why? Jealous? Don’t worry, your mom still likes you. She told me last night.”
or
California boy Will Byers moved to Indiana after being severely bullied, only to find out bullies are everywhere.
Hellfire Mike has a shit homelife.
They were destined to meet and save each other.

Summary
“Do you just not want everyone to know your fantasy is about me?”
Will expected Mike to startle, or jolt away again, or shove him away with his typical shock-annoyance. But he didn’t. He stilled, his eyes locking on the pool where a few more fully clothed people had been pushed into the chaotic waters – but it was an unfocused gaze, and Will knew he wasn’t really paying attention to the scene in front of him.
Mike may not be, but Will is completely sober. Painfully attached to reality. Acutely aware of every point their bodies are connecting – chest to upper arm, chin to shoulder, arm to back, knees grazing. He knows the dangers, knows it’s Mike, knows he might really be fucking up – either by making Mike uncomfortable, or inviting old feelings to resurface. So he really, really doesn’t know why he adds, “Tell me, baby.”
Or
Mike Wheeler gets told he's going to fall in love by a psychic - which is, of course, ridiculous. Until Will starts calling him pet names as a joke, and Mike realizes he would've much rather been told he was going to die.

Summary
It’s New York City’s hottest summer on record, and Mike and Will land the perfect post-grad serving job in one of the city’s finest restaurants. They’ve got loads of cash tips, two shiny new college degrees, a cigarette in each hand, and the whole city at their fingertips.
What starts as a sex joke written on an order ticket evolves into passing dirty notes with no goal other than embarrassing each other in front of customers. The sneakier, the filthier, the more absurd, the better.
Sometimes I think Chef should put you on the menu. You already look good enough to eat. -M
You’re so fucking greedy, I know you would devour me. -W
The lines of the joke blur when their smoke breaks in the alleyway start heating up into something else entirely.
Or: Mike and Will can only ask for what they really want when it’s in note form.
