    Summary

    “I love you,” Mike mumbles sleepily into his hair, wriggling closer. His arm winds across Will’s stomach, and Will feels the ghost of a kiss being pressed to the junction of his shoulder and neck.

    Will blinks his eyes open, warmth flooding the length of his body. He shifts, twisting around to peer up at Mike, squinting. “You- what?” he murmurs, lifting an eyebrow, and Mike jolts up, peeking over his shoulder sheepishly.

    “Oh,” he says, blushing as Will nudges his way to roll over onto his back, Mike hovering over him. “Sorry, I thought you were asleep.”

    Will stares up at him. “You were gonna say you loved me for the first time while I was asleep?”

    Mike lets out an undignified squeak, and drops his head down onto Will’s shoulder. “No.”

    A series of 'I love you's, both spoken and unspoken.

    Summary

    “Just to be sure, you – what were you agreeing to?” Mike blurts. “Like, was it the seeing other people thing, or the kiss – the practice kissing thing? I was – I’m just making –”

    “The second one,” Will forces out, feeling awkward to his very bones. “The – practice.”

    Mike, somehow, turns even redder. “Right. Yeah. Okay.”

    Mike offers to teach Will how to kiss.
    It goes well, all things considered.

    Summary

    Will needs a date to his mom's wedding. Mike volunteers.

     

    “I have an idea,” says Mike.

    Ice cubes form in Will’s stomach. “How dangerous is it? Like, should I call Dustin to talk you down, or should I call Nancy to be ready to drive us to the hospital?”

    “No,” says Mike, “you can’t tell anyone or it won’t work.”

    “Or what won’t work?” Will asks. It’s like picking up a rock you know a spider will be under.

    Mike gets up and closes Will’s door. Hopper doesn’t make them keep it open but sometimes Will does anyway, because every now and then lying around alone with Mike on his bed just makes his chest ache too much. If the door is open he can tell himself You can’t do anything right now, someone will see.

    Mike leans back against the door. His eyes are lit up with that special maniacal gleam that the Wheelers get right before they do something insane, like when Nancy says, “Then we have to go kill Vecna ourselves,” or whatever. “Take me to the wedding,” says Mike.

    “Yeah,” says Will slowly, “you’ll be at the wedding. Obviously.”

    As your date."

    Summary

    “Are you offended that people think we’re dating?”

    “No,” Mike says immediately. “Of course not,” because, again, he should be so lucky.

    Will’s baffled expression does not change. “Then why would I be?”

    “So– okay, fine, whatever. Should we, like, tell them to get their heads out of their asses and that we’re not– um– dating, or–”

    “I think,” Will cuts in, “well. You know what would be funny?”

    Honestly, Mike doesn't know what he thought being Will Byers' fake-boyfriend would entail, but he definitely didn't think it would involve this many ugly Christmas sweaters.

    Summary

    “You’re not boning, though, right?” he says, suddenly. He doesn’t know why he feels such an urge to bring it up again, as if the thought of Mike boning is not something that is CODE RED #1 at the top of Will's list of things to absolutely never think about. But also. Look–

    “What? No, of course I’m not boning,” Mike splutters, turning a violent shade of scarlet, “how would I even hide that from you, I’m with you all the time–”

    And then he falls silent, so fast that Will gets tonal whiplash from how fast Mike just went from saying boning over and over again to just clamping his mouth shut and staring at the wall across from them.

    Will's trying his hardest to make it through fall semester in one piece. Unfortunately for his degree, he's being haunted by maybe-feelings for his best friend (metaphorically), and also a maybe-ghost with rather abysmal fashion sense (literally).
