Summary
The end of the world shouldn’t be like this. It should be ending with a loud bang or a big, sad wave of applause. Not like this. Scattered military bases across a small, rather apocalyptic town, red flashed ground, rain smelling of acid and puke. The scene could remind one of a very bad horror movie, filmed in the sixties on a really, really low budget.
But it’s the reality, the reality William Byers has started to be fine with.
Well at least trying to be fine with. The raw apocalypse has started to seem way more soothing than attending high school under the circumstances. If will Byers was normal, maybe things would be different, easier and he could pack up and leave the government to the work. But unfortunately this wasn’t the case.(This fanfic is a small „prediction“ for season 5 of stranger things. It will actually focus on Byler but the plot will still be there. I’ll post at least 4 times a week, maybe less, maybe more, depends on my exams.)
Every chapter will have the title of a song, I’ll recommend listening to it while reading the chapter! :)

Summary
Following the Byers' departure from California, Will finds himself unable to configure his emotions, both towards himself and Mike.
Inspired by 40 Days, Souvlaki, and other songs by Slowdive
--
He thought that when he returned —if he returned—he would feel better surrounded by his mother’s love and in his own bed, protected from the monsters that clawed their way into his nightmares, but they grew invincible in his own mind. His brain couldn’t protect him, so how could anyone else? He left a burden, tainting the lives of everyone around him forever. He wanted to yell. He wanted to go back in time and stop himself from leaving Mike’s basement. He wanted to become the boy he used to be. But he can’t. He can never know youth again.

Summary
Clover Wallace is eighteen years old when she leaves behind the familiar mountains of Colorado for the quiet, eerie streets of Hawkins. She moves with her father—once a respected teacher, now a disgraced man struggling with the weight of his own demons. He’s promised Clover he’ll stop drinking, get his act together, and be the father she deserves. It’s not the first time he’s made that promise.
For most of her life, Clover has lived in the shadow of his abuse—both emotional and physical. Isolated and manipulated into silence, she’s learned not to trust easily, to keep her head down, and to avoid forming close relationships. For the first time, she’ll get to know her aunt, Claudia, and her cousin Dustin, relatives she’s never met but longs to connect with.
Starting senior year as the new girl in a small town isn’t easy, but Clover is determined. She’s ready to figure out who she is outside of her father’s control. She wants real friendships, a life of her own—and maybe even love. There’s a certain local metalhead who catches her eye, and for once, she feels like maybe, just maybe, she deserves something good. -

Summary
“Will!”
Will felt it before he saw it. In one swift motion, a vine wrapped around his ankle, pulling him down to the hard wood of the dock’s structure.
His chin hit the planks, pain shooting through his jaw and the taste of blood flowing in before he even felt the warmth of it. The ringing in his ears was unbearable, with the vine twisting more and more around his foot. All the air he just inhaled was gone, leaving him to do nothing more than let out a breathy scream –
“Mike!”

Summary
The two boys sat across from each other, Will sitting against the couch, Mike against the table, and they were just…looking at each other. Not saying anything, not mouthing anything. When the eye contact got too awkward, Will finally was the one to break it. He pulled his knees to his chest and quietly coughed, praying to no one in particular that he would magically fall asleep. But then–
Four taps, then two.
HI.
Will looked back up immediately, cheeks flushing and a smile already creeping across his face.
HI.

Summary
At least, he did a few things right that didn’t serve himself, but boy would it have been nice if he could’ve have taken more risks or played things more safe in other areas. If he could just rewind time like everyone said happens when they die with their life flashing before their eyes—Eddie let out one last breath and a tear as Dustin seemed to dim and fade away…
…
Eddie found himself standing outside himself, staring down at Dustin sobbing for Eddie to come back.
Click.
Everything paused.
It was eerie and still, and Eddie found himself looking around at the faint lines that seemed to run through everything and distort slightly. Without warning, there was another click and things began to rewind.

Summary
Will didn’t know what was wrong. He’d drawn Mike before. Hundreds of times.
But now, he couldn’t seem to grip the pencil properly, let alone apply delicate layers of paint. The furthest he’d gotten was Mike’s torso and an outline of his head, but when he tried to draw the rest of his body, Will ended up feeling so dizzy that he had to sit down.
He flopped face down on to his bed with a whine. How was he going to be a brilliant artist if he couldn’t even draw a figure?! It was just Mike! It was just legs! Will wouldn’t actually have to draw his… his crotch…As Valentine’s Day sweeps across Lenora Hills High, Will finds himself struggling to finish a very special painting. Searching for answers in the library, he comes across something that shakes him to his core, changing the way he looks at Mike Wheeler forever…

Summary
“If there was a way to make Mike jealous and piss him off, and maybe get him back… Would you do it?”
“Get him back? He’s never been mine in the first place,” Will looks away, sounding much more bitter than he’d ever admit to feeling.
“I wouldn’t be so sure,” Chance counters softly, and Will hates the way his heart leaps up into his throat and that, for a split moment, he feels like he’s floating. He feels hope.
He looks back at Chance, who starts speaking without being prompted. “This is going to sound crazy, but you have to trust me, okay?” There’s a pause where Will nods hesitantly. “We could act like we’re dating, you know, to make him jealous.”
Will feels like he’s been slapped across the face. “What?”
or: will and chance decide to fake date in order to make a certain mike wheeler jealous.
