Summary
Will arrives at the American Academy of Art in August 1989, intent on stepping out of his comfort zone and reinventing himself. After years of being uncertain of the future, his time in Chicago seems to serve as a light at the end of an endless tunnel, providing him with a fresh start to leave his old life in Hawkins behind. Will swears up and down to everyone he knows that he’s ready to move on, but even so, there’s always a small part of Will that refuses to let his heart go.
The title and story are inspired by the Taylor Swift song <3

Summary
“Wow,” Will breathes out, just on this edge of teasing. “You sound very confident about this.”
“Well,” Mike shrugs, swallowing hard in a desperate attempt to soothe his very, very dry mouth, “I don’t know why someone wouldn’t be interested in you.”
“Oh?” Will says, and it’s definitely teasing now, enough for Mike to feel himself turning warm, all down his neck and to the tips of his own – sadly unpatterned – socks. “Someone?”
“Yeah.” Mike nods. Oh, god. This is fine. “In a very arbitrary sense of the word. Just– people. Someone.”
Mike is approximately ninety-eight percent sure that his feelings are requited. That last two percent, however, has really been throwing him for a loop.

Summary
“You’re beautiful.” He blurted out, the words slipping out before he could even process it. They both froze, Will looking like he might throw up, and Mike looking like he just ran a marathon. What was he thinking, saying stuff like this without even realizing ? Will was definitely going crazy, and that was solely Mike’s fault. He was the forbidden apple Will would fall victim to every time. He forced, with a single stare, Will to blurt out all his secrets, which were safely tucked away in some hidden part of his heart. He wasn’t supposed to know how enamored Will was. He wasn’t supposed to know Will’s love for him ran deeper than a simple “I love you”. At least not now. Completely mortified, Will tried to at least save face.
“I —I’m sorry — ”
“You really think so ?”
Or, Will stares at Mike sleeping as he thinks of how much he loves him. He loves him oh so very much.
