Summary
The Space Between Us is a Mike POV, quiet, slice-of-life story about Mike Wheeler and Will Byers during the 18-month gap in Stranger Things, at the start of the quarantine in Hawkins. It follows their deepening relationship, the lingering effects of Will’s time in the Upside Down, and the small, unspoken tension that grows between them.
Through everyday moments like playing D&D, drawing, chatting, and little adventures, you see how much they care for each other. The story is about connection, vulnerability, and that invisible space that both separates them and quietly pulls them together.

Summary
It's hot. Too hot for a night in Hawkins, Indiana, but Mike Wheeler's thoughts are being completely consumed by Will Byers. Specifically, the night on the radio tower with Will.
Best friends? Are you kidding?
So, Mike does what any reasonable person would do; bike across town to confess his love to his best friend (and breaks his nose in the process)

Summary
Both Mike and Will are pushing down feelings but like the pipes at the MAC-Z, they can’t be held in forever and eventually rupture leading to long overdue conversations (cough cough the painting!) and confessions.
or
Mike is confused as fuck and stressing about his sexuality, while Will is trying his hardest to convince himself he’s over Mike (of course he’s not—these idiots can’t stay away from each other).
Mike does everything in his power to deny the truth he fears most: that he’s in love with his best friend, and that his relationship with El was nothing but fake. He tries to hide it, but someone helps him see that being different doesn’t have to be so scary.

Summary
Mike realizes that saving the world is easier than figuring out his own heart. The monsters are gone, but the fear, guilt, and unspoken words still linger. Mike wishes he could do something differently between him and Will's friendship, say something right. Will was just someone he could talk to, someone he could be honest with, or at least he thought..
Mike replays everything that has happened lately. The late nights, close proximity, the tension, and the odd feeling deep inside of him he can’t put his finger on. A lingering jealousy when anybody else claims to be Will’s best friend or to even know him at all. He keeps telling himself he's “Bad at Feelings” except not with Will... Will is the only exception.
