    Summary

    Ninety-six hours.

    It’s been ninety-six hours since Will last went to sleep, and, as with most things, Mike worries this might be killing him.

    Maybe that’s a dramatic thing to think, but Mike can’t find it in himself to break out of the “agonize about it” mindset that has been normal for him since the seventh grade.

    The anxiety is the motor that keeps him going — it drives him to act when the circumstances of his life are impossible to comprehend.

    It’s keeping him hovering at Will’s side now, all pretense of personal space discarded and forgotten.

    How can he think about what’s acceptable when the smudges under his best friend’s eyes grow more shadowy with each passing day?

    Or: Will Byers is in desperate need of a good night’s sleep. Mike Wheeler is extremely committed to making that happen.

    Summary

    “How many times have I told you to stop making that weird nest on the floor?” he huffs, striding toward him in a few big, determined steps. 

    Their arms brush as he passes by, and Will has to stop himself from stumbling backward because every time Mike touches him lately, Will forgets how to be a normal human being. Safe distance, he repeats, but it’s useless.

    “Come on, the bed’s big enough for both of us,” Mike insists, voice so gentle it nearly knocks Will straight to the ground.

    or; Nancy and Jonathan want to sleep together on the basement couch, and Will is more or less forced to go sleep in Mike’s room.

    Summary

    "So," Will says, swallowing and forcing back the pettiness coating the inside of his throat, "There is a girl, then?"

    Mike glances away sheepishly, blushing and raising a hand to rub nervously at the back of his neck. "Um. Not exactly."

    Will frowns. What else could it possibly be, he wonders, what with the hickeys and the evasive behavior and the coming home late, all of which Will is totally normal and not annoyed about. Maybe it was - he winces at the thought - a hookup that ended poorly, or a series of unrelated incidents, or-

    "What is it, then?" he asks, if only to distract himself from this obviously destructive train of thought, and Mike meets his eyes nervously.

    "There's not a girl," Mike repeats, sounding a little pained, "But there is- a boy."

    The world stops.

    In which Mike has a boyfriend who is not Will, and Will is totally, super, very much okay with this turn of events.
