Summary
The girl in front of him erupts into shocked laughter, and Mike whirls around to grab Will by the shoulder. He goes limp under Mike’s hand like a trapped animal playing dead.
“Did—did you just bite me?”
His boyfriend, the absolute public hazard that he is, has the audacity to look disgruntled.
“Come on, what’s a little biting between friends?”
Mike gapes. “I-god, I don’t even know where to start with you! That was a-a-a chomp! You gnawed on me!” Call him weak all you want, but that bite had hurt. Also-- friends? How much had he drank tonight?
Unperturbed, Will rolls his eyes and leans forward. “I’ll show you real gnawing—”

Summary
Ever since Will gave Mike the painting, Mike has been acting... weird. He's been standing closer to Will, there have been lingering gazes... but nothing too crazy, right? Nothing that Will can allow himself to dwell on.
That is, until Mike starts kissing him.

Summary
Mike is burning up, inside and out.
Externally, there’s a bubbling burn wound carved across his shoulder— but, to be honest, a simple injury is the least of his worries. He’s more concerned with the aggravating, endlessly-perplexing internal dilemma that’s been plaguing his mind for God knows how long; why is he completely incapable of acting normal around Will?
Every time he sees Will— or even dares to look him in the eye— Mike feels this sort of fire burning deep in his chest, hot and all-consuming and completely inexplicable. And, no matter how hard he tries, Mike just can’t figure it out;
What is wrong with him?
(or; Mike has no idea why his heart starts to race around Will. It takes a near-death, some close encounters, and a few aggressive-but-caring talks from Jonathan for him to figure it out.)

Summary
It’s comical, Will thinks, that even as he’s pressed up between Chance and the wall, Chance’s strong hands alternating between gripping his waist and exploring under his shirt, that he’s still thinking of Michael fucking Wheeler.

Summary
Dustin hums in agreement while he swallows his bite. “It’s like, against his factory settings to say no to you. What do you need him to do, model for you or something?”
Will shoves his face back into his hands. “I’m going to fail.”
Max rolls her eyes. “You’re not going to fail, you’re going to paint Mike.”
Will lifts his head up from his hands, eyes wide, and shakes his head. “You don’t understand.” He pleads with his awful, awful friends, voice low. “He’s been, he’s using my-he came out of my bathroom in just a towel last night.”
--
Studio art major Will Byers has a study of the human body due before the semester ends, is in desperate need for a model, and has a huge, life-altering, heart wrenching crush on his best friend.
Enter: Mike Wheeler, his broken shower, and his collection of plaid-print boxers.
