   Summary

   In an alternate universe, Will Byers never went to the Upside Down. He never grew up in Hawkins. And he was never childhood friends with Mike Wheeler.

   One night at a club, he meets Mike with his nerdy glasses and interesting stare and they connect. Sparks fly. Butterflies swoop. Will has never felt this attracted to anyone.

   But Mike isn't from Will's universe, but another where the Mind Flayer won and Will is his to control. And Mike has finally found a Will he can heal with.
