Summary
Will could not help the question that burst from his lips, it had been ricocheting around his brain like a stray tennis ball and was simultaneously causing him the most excitement, distress and exhilaration he had felt in his entire life.
“Are you my husband?” he blurted. Mike blinked in surprise.
“What?”
Will lost his nerve slightly. He wondered if he had been horribly wrong about this, and maybe in this strange timeline he was just a friend staying over and maybe he’d made a mistake and the daughter wasn’t really his daughter and—
Will faltered. “Um, I — well, I just thought you were — I mean, you are my husband, right?”
Mike looked very alarmed. He was staring at Will as though he had grown a second head.
“Obviously…?” he said, “Are you feeling alright? Did your mom make you try her D-I-Y coffee again?”
When nineteen-year-old Will Byers wakes up to find himself in his forty-three-year-old body, he must—with no experience whatsoever—play the part of world-renowned freelance painter, father of two very troublesome teenagers, and most strangely of all: Mike Wheeler’s husband.

Summary
“I need like– actionable steps. ‘Act normal’ is too vague.”
Will sighs and reaches over to turn the radio down even quieter.
“Ok for one, stop staring at my mouth,” Will says.
Mike glances over at him automatically.
Will laughs. “See? That’s exactly what I mean. You’ve been doing it for years, but now it’s like…it’s a lot, Mike. People are gonna notice.”
“But I wanna kiss you,” Mike whines.
It’s been a week since Mike and Will got together – one blissful week, like a honeymoon before the wedding. Now they’re in Montauk for Joyce and Hopper’s, surrounded by friends and family, and trying to fly under the radar. Somewhere along the way, Mike realizes he doesn’t want to hide anymore.
Or, two horny idiots in love struggle to keep their relationship hidden.

Summary
“Why does it even matter?”
“It matters because you lied.”
“About a stupid painting?”
“It’s not stupid to me!"
“Mike! What do you want from me!” The question is desperate and so loud, it fills the entire room, knocking the fight out of them both. Will’s eyes brim with tears.
It's the last night of his trip visiting Will at NYU and Mike finds something curious in a sketchbook. Before he can face what it might mean for him, he has to find out what it meant (or means) for Will.

Summary
“I was scared,” Mike says abruptly. Will looks up. “To tell you. About the, um, liking guys thing.”
He stares at one of Will’s older drawings on the far wall. It’s the two of them, Mike the Brave and Will the Wise, facing off against some formidable beast. Mentally, he scoffs. He’s never felt less like Mike the Brave than he does right now.
“Not like you’d have reacted badly, obviously. But I felt like I’d missed some kind of metaphorical window, and the longer I didn’t say anything, the harder it felt to bring up. So I just… never did.”
“And that’s why you stopped writing?” Will asks hesitantly.
“It’s part of it,” he admits. “The other part is that I was pretty miserable, and I didn’t want to put that on you.”
After losing touch over the fall semester, Mike comes face-to-face with Will for the first time in months while home for winter break, forcing him to confront a number of things he’d rather avoid. Naturally, they end up sleeping together. Repeatedly.

Title - lyrics from First Love/Late Spring
Life isn’t all sunshines and rainbows because they’ve freed Minho. Newt is unconscious, Minho is shaken up, and everyone is exhausted.
But they’re alive.
And for now, that’s all that matters.
***
“Thomas. With all due respect, you had a Crank on your back. He could’ve bitten your neck! Do you have any idea how dangerous that was?”Thomas hadn’t thought of that. His face flushed with embarrassment and he pretended to load his gun, “Well he didn’t.” He muttered.
“You’re lucky he likes you.” Minho shook his head, too tired for this.
***This fic gets... one new chapter per sometimes. But if you ask, you might receive quicker!! (Pls peer pressure me into writing more)

Summary
Will's memory smiles at Mike, hair tousled over his brow; his fast-beating, bloody trust deposited into the cradle of Mike's clumsy palms. Tender and sweet, in the face of horror—sixteen, split open and spit out for everyone to gawk at, but still able to look at Mike gently and think him deserving. Of forgiveness, of his first whispered I’m gay.

Summary
“Just saying, if you’re taking another hit, you should share it with me,” Mike says, and Will slowly tilts his head, drinking in every word. “It just makes sense. Like, mathematically.”
Will’s reddened eyes narrow, bewildered. “Mathematically?”
“If there’s two hits left, we’d each only get one,” Mike explains. “But if we shotgunned, we’d both get two.” God, this is the best idea he’s had in ages. He should’ve stolen Will’s weed, like, months ago. “That’s like, bang for your buck. This is simple math, Will Byers. Keep up.”
In which it’s well past midnight in New York, Will can’t sleep, and Mike feels like they barely know each other anymore.
So, they get a little high. Mike is very normal about all of it.

Summary
Will bites his lip and nods, looking down at his shoes again so Richie won't see how hard he's holding back a giddy smile.
Everybody in the party knows everything about him. Maybe it wouldn't be the worst thing to keep a secret from Mike for a little while.
It's kind of exciting. Sneaking in a boy Mike hates.
Will shakes his head, trying to clear Mike from it for the night. Only when he looks back up at Richie, Richie has this conspiratorial smile on his face, like maybe Will isn't the only one eager to piss off Mike Wheeler.
OR: the concept of Richie Tozier being Will Byers' dirty little secret and Mike Wheeler being so jealous he can't breathe. Byler endgame.

Summary
Clark struggles with something his Ma might call jealousy after walking in on Bruce and Hal together after a mission. Instead of letting Clark's feelings ruin the Justice League's hard-won team cohesion, Bruce suggests an alternative arrangement: sleep together once, work the tension between them out of their systems, and then go back to normal afterward.
The problem with that plan? It's not just casual, and neither of them can ever go back to normal once it's all said and done.

Marriage of Inconvenience by susiecarter

Summary
Swanwick gave Bruce a level, unamused look. "Mr. Wayne," he said. "Please tell me you know why you're here."
Bruce shrugged. "Won the lottery, and first-place prize is the government marries me off to an alien."
(Or: in a universe where Krypton took an extra thirty-odd years to implode, Kal-El was sent to Earth as an adult, in advance of the ship containing the only other surviving Kryptonians; and a quirk of Kryptonian law means negotiating refuge, potential resettlement, and an alliance with the Kryptonians in general is dependent on marriage between a Kryptonian and a human. Bruce did what it took to make sure that that human would be him, instead of some poor unprepared civilian—but his efforts to learn more about the aliens, what they want and why they're here, and how, if necessary, to kill them ... don't go the way he's expecting them to.)

Clark caught up with Bruce in a blind alley.
If he hadn't already known something was wrong, that would have been enough to make it obvious. Bruce would never have retreated into a dead end, not if he'd been in his right mind.
But he wasn't.

Summary
It requires every ounce of will he can bring to bear to force himself to meet Clark's eyes. Clark looks shocked; the expression is undiluted by anger or dismay, though perhaps he simply hasn't had time to grasp what just happened. His eyes are wide, round, impossibly blue. Color is rising into his cheeks. His mouth is half-open, slack, with the slightest damp shine where—
"That was," Bruce makes himself say, and then stops. Christ, what word can he use? What adjective is there that acknowledges his trespass fully? "Inappropriate." Inadequate, but it's the best he can do, and Clark needs to hear something, needs to know Bruce recognizes his own mistake for what it is. "I apologize. I—"
