Summary
“I found something in the bathroom,” Will bows his head a little, hands on his knees. “Some kinda magazine.”
Mike stills.
It’s subtle. Would’ve gone unnoticed to anyone but Will.
Mike’s shoulder draws back just slightly, as if bracing for impact.
“What kind of magazine?” he asks, aiming for casual. He almost hits the mark.
Will watches him too closely, their thighs brushing on the blanket-strewn mattress.
“Not Playboy,” Will says, quieter now. “At least… I don’t think so.”
A small beat encompasses the two. Mike nods slowly, taking in this information a little too factually.
“Were you digging through the drawers or something?”
There it is. A little too quick, defensive maybe.
“I… I wasn’t digging,” Will says, maybe a little too quick. Then softer, “I was looking for a spare towel.”
The cicadas outside seem louder suddenly. The hum of the house presses in around them. Mike looks past Will, towards the stairs, like someone might materialize and overhear.
Will hates the instinct.
“It’s not mine,” Mike says, voice quiet, eyes narrowed.
“I didn’t say it was.”

Twenty-two years after leaving, Will travels back to Hawkins to face his past. Only Mike now lives there, too.
Or, ‘He might as well have carved 'Mike' into his thigh. It would have been more honest.’

Letters to Will (Live from New York) by sofishortcake

Summary
“Thanks for taking care of me, Mike. I didn’t mean to drink this much.” Mike locks the dorm door behind him with a quiet click. “I could’ve had Carlton walk me back. If you wanted to stay at the party.”
Mike rolls his eyes, taking a deliberate step closer. “Yeah, I bet he would've loved that. And, please... stop saying his fucking name, okay?”
Will swallows. “Sorry, I just meant…I’m so happy you’re here, but I know you’re not just here to see me, and you probably want—”
Mike cuts him off without a second thought. He grabs Will’s arms, and shoves him lightly but firmly against the wall. Their chests collide. Will freezes—but Mike doesn’t back down. “Will…you have no idea what I want,” he whispers, eyes dropping to Will’s lips. Every shred of control he’s ever clung to around him melting.

take your time while you’re mine (and smoke slow) by limerency

Summary
“I–I have an idea,” he starts, and Will thinks he’s never seen him so still, “I know you won’t let me try your cigarettes, but...”
The idea begins to die on Mike’s tongue. Will revives it.
“But?” He whispers, voracity woven in his tone.
“I don’t have to smoke if you do it for me.”
The proposition cuts through the ashy air, and an instantaneous clarity hits Will.
Mike is asking him to shotgun.
or
3 times Will smokes alone + 1 time Mike joins him.
