Summary
Will finally makes eye contact with him again, a smile playing on his lips. Mike’s eyes dart down to them for a split second, then back up. “Okay.”
“Yeah?”
“Yeah. I mean, whatever, right? We live together, for God’s sake, and we’ve known each other forever. Who cares if we have to hold hands for three days, too?”
“Exactly,” Mike says too quickly. As stupid as Robin’s plan had sounded when she’d proposed it, now that things were falling into place he found himself eager to get it underway. Treat Will like royalty. Easy.***
Three whole days Will’s heart hasn’t known whether to swell or break or rupture like his appendix. But he’s being discharged tomorrow, so it won’t be an issue for much longer, so for now he just pretends that the hand on his arm wants to be there. Because Will Byers-Hopper has never been chosen on purpose, and until tomorrow, he can pretend that this arrangement didn’t come about under duress.
OR:
New York City, October, 1989. Things have been better since Will moved away from Hawkins and Mike followed him. Until Will's appendix bursts and, in the chaos of getting him to the hospital and finding a medical proxy, Mike accidentally tells the doctors he's his boyfriend.
