Summary
“Dude,” Dustin says, sounding kind of horrified but also kind of delirious with elation. “Oh my God, you like him. You like Will. Will. As in, our Will. Our best friend Will.”
“I do not–” Mike tries, even though he’d kind of just admitted to accidentally kissing Will Byers, a little, so maybe that’s an entirely fruitless road to go down.
Listen. No one should ever let Mike make decisions right after he wakes up from a nap, okay? Especially not decisions where Will is concerned. This is so not his fault.

Summary
“Your life is for the pack.” Chan's father, the Pack Alpha, had told him as a mere pup, and he had never dared to question it.
Because of this, it took many years for Chan to make his first friend.
Minho was quiet and reserved. His presentation as an alpha was a blessing for his family, not a necessity.
Not like Chan's.
Chan took a quiet liking to Minho. The younger pup was kind and caring and Chan admired it.
Minho admired Chan in turn.

Summary
"Is Will your boyfriend?" Holly asks, and Mike immediately chokes on the lettuce in his mouth.
"Wh- what?" he gasps, dropping his fork and swallowing back the salad that suddenly feels like cement in his throat. Holly's looking at him with a strange expression, like she's trying to figure something out.
"Will. Is he your boyfriend?" she repeats, even though Mike very obviously heard her, and the question doesn't feel any less shocking the second time.
"No!" He yelps. "No, why would you think that?"
Holly shrugs, taking another bite of spaghetti like this is a normal conversation and she is not slowly killing him. "Nancy calls him your little boyfriend sometimes, and Mom says he's your person, which basically means the same thing, and you live together and act like a couple and unpack groceries together, and- I don't know. Seems like it could be a thing."
holly visits college roommates mike and will, and has a few important questions for them

Summary
“I don’t think that it has to mean that you’re into guys,” Lucas says. His words are accompanied by a casual shrug, and said in the tone of someone who has clearly already given this subject some thought. Will doesn’t know what to do with that information. Jump from a building, maybe. “I mean, we’d all get flustered if Spider-Man carried us in his arms.”
Mike points to him enthusiastically. “Thank you, Lucas.”
Dustin looks between the two of them, his eyes narrowed.
“...Would we?”
“Sure,” Mike concludes. “He’s attractive. That’s not a weird thing to think.”
Will just barely resists the urge to bang his head against the table. He feels Dustin’s eyes glued to his burning face, and sinks even further down his chair.
In which Mike tells Spider-Man that he has a crush on his best friend, and Will jumps to some very wrong conclusions.

Summary
"Tell me a secret?"
Mike asks, like he's come to do every day, late at night, when the darkness can swallow the guilt and the regret rushing out of their hearts, when their sides press together, the floor long forgotten, ever since the first Will, please, come up here.
Will is a terrible person.
I'm in love with you. I'm having visions. I'm in love with you. I'm not really having nightmares, Vecna is tempting me with a version of you that loves me back. I'm in love with you.
"I think my death is the easiest solution to everything. The Upside Down will die with me."
Will can hear Mike swallow next to him.
"Will, I would let the world burn down to ashes if it meant keeping you in it."
or
They're back in Hawkins, everything is the way it's always been, except - yeah, it's still the middle of an apocalypse, Will is having nosebleeds and Mike would sacrifice the world for his best friend but is still losing him.

Right after Will’s powers awaken, the Party hides out in the old radio station trying to make sense of everything. As Will explains what happened, with Mike glued protectively to his side, Robin watches them and realizes something Will hasn’t said out loud yet.

Summary
Will blinks. Mike is looking at him with an amused look on his face, wide-eyed and a little pink across the bridge of his nose, and God, okay, Will wants to–
“Um,” he says instead. “Huddling? For warmth?”
“For warmth,” Lucas echoes, and then looks back at Dustin again. “Huddling. For warmth.”
“Like penguins,” Mike offers, and then rests his head on Will’s shoulder like this is supposed to be helping, or something.
Will Byers and the harrowing experience of being snowed in with your mom, your almost-stepdad, all of your friends, and your (kind of) (secret) boyfriend.

Summary
Will stirred sleepily to the sound of voices and a heavy weight beside him.
“Whazup?” he mumbled, lifting his head off the pillow and blinking in the darkness.
“Shhh, it’s fine,” replied Mike’s soft voice, breaking through the stillness that had followed Will’s muffled question, “I’ve got this one. You can go back to sleep.”
Mike and Will take turns staying up with Holly, who has begun to have nightmares about the monsters in Hawkins. Things take a curiously domestic turn.

Summary
“Look,” Will says again, showing Mike the table he crafted to go in Castle Byers.
“Oh! Cool,” Mike answers, although Will can tell his mind is elsewhere.
“You alr—"
"Who is "M"?" Mike suddenly asks, interrupting him.
Will’s eyebrows shoot up, confusion written all over his face. "Huh?"
Turning around, he realizes that Mike is holding something. A piece of wood in an odd shape. He steps a little closer, squinting his eyes. The capitalized M + W, bluntly carved in the wood, is impossible to miss.
And Will's heart drops to his stomach. Because he knows that piece of wood. Of course he knows it, he goddamn carved that himself years ago.
"Uh, I—," Will says.
Or, the fic where Will and Mike rebuild Castle Byers and Mike figures something out (but it takes him a while, obviously.)

Summary
“Nah, man,” Lucas shakes his head, leaning back as he snacks on an apple, “he got, like, buff. Do you see his arms?”
Mike does, in fact, see Will’s arms. He has not stopped seeing his arms.
“She definitely sees his arms,” Dustin very unhelpfully points out, waggling his eyebrows, and Mike gets the overwhelming urge to bash his own head in.While volunteering at the Hawkins' help center, it seems like every girl around has a newfound interest in Will Byers, and Mike doesn't know why he feels the way he does.

Summary
The first time it happens, Will classifies it as a little accident.
When he wakes, the morning sun is burning through the window onto their faces, and Mike’s cursing as he stands to close the curtains, stumbling all the way.
“Scoot over,” he grumbles, voice dry, and for a second Will can’t do anything other than sigh like a lovesick idiot. It’s a second too late for Mike, because he grumbles more words Will doesn’t catch under his breath and then physically pushes Will towards the wall to lay beside him, arm over Will’s middle. A second of silence passes, then Mike sighs, only to whine: “Fuck, my head hurts.”
Will can’t help it: he breaks down laughing, much to Mike’s offense.
---------------
Alternatively: five times Mike kissed Will, and one time Will kissed back.

Summary
“Do you want to go home?” He questions, leaning close and voice soft, and Will pauses, before nodding again. Mike lets out a breath, and lets his hand press against Will a little more firmly when he starts to sway in place again. “Okay, let’s go.”
Then he looks up and is met with smug faces, and Mike flushes when he realizes his own hypocrisy.
“I don’t talk like that,” Max recalls, voice high-pitched and overly girly and – Mike definitely doesn’t talk like that.
According to everyone in his life, Mike has a voice reserved just for Will. He tries to figure out what that says about him.

Summary
“Chris?”
He looks up at the call of his name from a voice that is most definitely not from any of the bartenders Chris has become acquainted with, because he would remember a tone so deep, so smooth. He’s met with the sight of a blonde guy who is most definitely young and pretty enough for the job, the kind of face that would be sure to generate a new pool of regulars and drum up a hefty amount of tips.
“Oh, wow, it really is you!” he exclaims, and it stirs up an uneasy feeling in Chris’s chest. “You used to be an idol, right? It’s been so many years, but you still look the same. Holy shit, I can’t believe I ran into you!”
The smile slips from Chris’s face. It’s been so long since he was last recognized that he had almost forgotten it was a thing that could happen, but of course his peace has to be disturbed.
Retired idol Chris and retired fanboy Felix have a chance meeting at a gay bar.

Summary
"You always say I can tell you anything," Hyunjin says, dropping all pretenses of being busy with Chan's hair as he leans deeper into his leader's personal space.
"Of course," Chan nods. All he can do is tilt his head back, neck aching, to look directly into Hyunjin's dark eyes.
"There is something I have been keeping away from you, hyung,"
"Oh?"
"I really wanna kiss you," the drumming of his heart is defeaning, war drums signalling a battle he has already lost. He can only look up at Hyunjin, knuckles white where he is gripping the material of his jeans and wide eyes. "I feel like if I don't kiss you right now I will die."
Or; Hyunjin ties Chan's long hair up and comes clean about his feelings.

Summary
The man who climbs down from the driver’s seat looks like he’s stepped out of a catalog. Maybe somewhere between 35 and 40, broad shoulders stretching his t-shirt in a way that suggests gym hours, but there’s a softness too - flesh over muscle, comfort over vanity. His hair is brown and slightly curly, his expression calm, purposeful.
Hyunjin almost drops his mug. “Oh,” he breathes to no one but Kkami, who has hopped onto the couch beside him, ears perked. “He’s hot. Our new neighbor is hot. He’s... no, he’s unfairly hot. That’s a DILF, Kkami.”
Kkami yaps, unimpressed.

Chan tapped him delicately on the knee with the tip of his finger. “Wanna smoke a bowl?”
“God, yes.”
Chan’s laugh squeaked in his throat, and he bounced on the balls of his feet. “Wanna play Left 4 Dead 2 and order pizza? Hyung’s treat.”
“Fucking yes, please.”
“Okay.”
