Summary
As always, life had a way of throwing unexpected surprises toward Will; whether it be improvements or outright cruel things that made his life much worse than it had to be.
And for Will, he doesn't really know when life became worse— can't remember when it all started. As a matter of fact, he can't really remember much of anything, just that his life had become an unhinged mess of chaos that had gotten out of control; out of HIS control.
Now, there are suddenly two eighteen year old boys in the middle of his chaos. Great, just great.
Or
After a massive fight, 18 year old Will and Mike are thrown into a future where friendship no longer exists and Will's mind is fractured beyond repair. Now, they have to find a way back home to prevent this from ever happening.

Summary
Being a part-time superhero doesn’t solve Will’s problems; instead, it adds to them. As Cleric, he’s forced to deal with his egotistical know-it-all of a partner, Paladin. As Will, he’s stuck hopelessly pining after his best friend. He’s honestly not sure which is worse.
One thing’s for sure, though — he needs a change. In one of his weaker moments, Will comes up with a plan: get over Mike by getting under someone else, someone he knows he won’t fall for.
Maybe Paladin is good for something, after all.

Summary
Mike and Will have been best friends for as long as they can remember.
For years, they shared everything: adventures, secrets, dreams, and a future they always assumed would include each other. But growing up has a way of complicating even the strongest friendships.
Both boys are carrying feelings they don’t know how to name—feelings that are becoming harder and harder to ignore. While Mike struggles with guilt, expectations, and the fear of losing the person who matters most to him, Will is forced to confront the possibility that some truths are better left unspoken.
As the world around them changes and the future pulls them in different directions, they must decide whether protecting their friendship is worth sacrificing their hearts.
A coming-of-age story about first love, longing, friendship, and finding the courage to be honest with yourself.Bookmarked by Ashtonnightfall

Summary
New City. New School. Same Old Heartbreak.
Will Byers thought sharing a dorm with Mike Wheeler would be a dream come true. Instead, it’s a front-row seat to Mike’s awkward attempts at moving on from El. But when a messy night ends in a kiss that feels anything but accidental, the rules of their friendship are rewritten overnight.
Will is happy to play the role of the secret lover, the placeholder, if it means keeping Mike in his life. He’s prepared for the breakup. He’s prepared for Mike to find a "real" girlfriend. He’s prepared for everything... except the possibility that Mike isn't pretending at all.

Summary
"For a moment that lingers and echoes inside Will like a fever, they hold each other.
Will feels Mike’s body pressed tight against his. A nose tucked into his neck, curls brushing his chin, arms wrapped around him, fingers clutching the fabric of his T-shirt.
He is grateful to be the one holding Mike like this, to be someone he can find comfort in. He forces himself not to think about anything beyond that. He is grateful for the small mercy of being someone Mike needs."or
Set against Will’s new, shining life in New York, where he convinces himself the best thing he can do for Mike is stay close and help him heal, loving him in silence while moving forward as best as he can. But while Will waits with quiet patience, Mike has spent years feeding something far less gentle, an obsession, a dependence, a devotion sharpened by longing, jealousy and need, all of it threatening to spill over at any moment.
