Summary
Both of their bodies shake as they catch their breath. Will’s still hard, and his sweat is starting to dry uncomfortably on his skin, but all he can focus on is Mike.
It’s times like these he’s reminded how lucky he is to have Mike in this way. To see this side of him, this side that still feels too new and too intimate and too overwhelming all at once. Sometimes, he thinks he might be bitter. Resentful of his lot in life, being so painfully in love with someone who will so obviously never feel the same way. On his bad days, he even thinks he might resent Mike.
Like this, though, he knows that could never be true. Not really. Sure, it hurts, only ever having Mike halfway, knowing his body but never his soul. Yes, it’s going to kill him when Mike inevitably finds someone new and runs off into the sunset, leaving him in the dust again.
But it’s Mike. He'll take whatever he can get.
When he and Mike end up in bed together after graduation, they fall into something dangerously easy. Or, at least, it would be easy, if it weren’t the most painful thing Will’s ever done.

Summary
“I look like a nautical disaster, Max. I look like I’m about to go down with the Titanic.”
“Correct. But a nautical disaster that earns $3.35 an hour.”
Mike Wheeler’s summer goals were simple: survive the humiliating polyester sailor suit of Scoops Ahoy and save enough money to buy a new D&D manual. He didn't account for the heatwave, the sudden influx of girls flirting with his "indie-rock" hair, or the fact that Will Byers was working twenty feet away at Surfer Boy Pizza in a yellow visor that made Mike’s brain stop functioning.
Between trying to write his phone number on melting ice cream cups and surviving Max’s blunt commentary on Will's "athletic" development, Mike is losing his mind. But when the mall lights go out and the grease-and-sugar tension finally boils over on a flour-dusted prep table, Mike realizes that being a "Little Sailor" might not be so bad—as long as he has a Pizza Prince to come home to.
Or: The one where Mike pines, Will glares, and Max Mayfield deserves a raise for dealing with both of them.
