Summary
Mike moves them so that Will's leaning his weight onto him, Will's shoulder pressed to Mike's chest, positioning Will half on top of him so he isn't fully on the ground.
"Will? Speak to me what's going on?!"
Being closer to the floor makes it clear to Will what's happening, he's the one shaking. His whole body is convulsing.
"Can you hear me??!"
He can, just barely, but Will can't answer him. His tongue feels heavy in his mouth, like it's been injected with led. It's just a slab of useless wet flesh in his mouth.

Summary
It's not looking good.
But it's nothing unusual, this is how every April fools is in school, it's like a warzone. Will's half surprised no one's tried to directly interact with him yet other than shouting names.What does surprise Will is that after Math ends, Mike pulls him aside. He looks nervous? He's pulling on his sweater sleeve and going from foot to foot, barely able to keep still.
"Hey Will" he shuffles his feet, staring downward, he can hardly meet Will's eyes "Can you come over later?"
Oh he's definitely got something planned. No worries, Will won't lower his guard.
"Ofcourse Mike"

Summary
Will Byers expected the senior fall formal to hurt.
He did not expect Troy Walsh and his friends to drench him in contaminated demo blood - or to wake something inside him that had always been waiting.
Now Will can move objects without touching them, taste violence in a guilty heartbeat, and grow teeth sharp enough to make his tormentors bleed. The hunger wants revenge. Mike Wheeler wants Will alive, free, and entirely his own - even if that means helping him bury the bodies.
But what if three deaths are not enough to quiet what Will has become? What if loving him may require Mike to learn the difference between standing beside a monster and reminding him that he still has a choice. -

Summary
Will’s eyes were blank, unseeing.
Mike blinked and was thrown back eleven years. His nose stung with memory of the damp, sour-sweet rot that had haunted Hawkins the year the tunnels vivisected the town.
It’s been eight years since the final battle, and everyone is back in town for Steve’s wedding.
The Upside Down is gone, Vecna is dead, and Will keeps waking up in the woods. -

Summary
"I'm glad I went," Mike murmurs near Will's ear.
"Had fun?" Will asks playfully.
"Oh, yeah," Mike stretches sarcastically.
They stay like that for a little longer than necessary, then reluctantly separate, still looking at each other. Will can't hold the eye contact for long, and turns away, biting down a smirk.
"Goodnight, then," he breathes out.
"Yeah. Goodnight," Mike nods nervously and smiles. That same stupid dorky smile.
OR
The Party have one last fun summer together before moving away, everyone is alive and happy and in love and stupid.

Summary
“And why come back when so many are leaving Hawkins?”
Will slowed without meaning to. The leaves under his shoes crackled. “I–”
What should he tell this stranger that wouldn’t reveal the fact that his sister had superpowers and might actually be the only key to save this entire town from a monstrous maniac?
“Well, everyone I know is here,” he murmured. “I couldn’t… just leave them.”
The man hummed softly, then he lifted his head to scan over the woods, a faint whistle came from his lips, before his gaze landed onto Will again.
“Maybe something here wanted you back.”

Summary
Will Byers is sixteen when he dies for a second time. Now, he thought, there would be no revivals, no take-backs. He would die and that would be the end of the short and miserable life of William Byers. Which is really fucking sad because he feels like life would've finally been good for him. He'd defeated the Mind Flayer and Vecna. He'd finally gotten his love for Mike reciprocated. But now he was there, in his arms, quickly fading. The Mind Flayer’s connection was dragging him down with it into the depths of oblivion. Perhaps the universe still has one kindness to spare for him.
OR
Will is sent back to the summer of 1985 after he dies. He gets strange visions and enlists the help of Jane Hopper to recover his memories and hopefully save more than they could last time around.
