Summary
His brain finally catches up with Mike’s words, and Mike is saying things like, “C’mon, Will—you can do it,” and “I’m so proud of you,” and “Don’t rush, it’s okay.” In the softest tone imaginable, and if Will maybe pretends to still be a little more out of it than he actually is just to keep hearing Mike talk to him like that—well, that’s his business.

After Season 5 Vol.1, Mike refuses to leave Wills side.

Summary
Slowly, he rolls onto his side, curling inward without meaning to. His palms settle against his lower stomach, fingers spread wide, hands bigger than they used to be. Or maybe all of him is bigger, and he's aging, and his body is just more his now than he can remember.
He feels so empty.
Just one heartbeat, only his voice in his head, one lonely body curled up in bed.
---
“Will, come on.” The doorknob rattles. “You're freaking me out.” Mike sounds closer now, worried. “I'm sick of you pushing me away. I'm not joking around.”
Will imagines him standing on the other side of the door, one hand gripping the frame, eyebrows drawn together. Waiting, the way he always is.
“At least let me know you're alive in there.” Mike's voice cracks, and the sound makes Will's throat tighten immediately. “Will, I'm serious, and I mean it. I'll break this door down.”
or, my take on Will's trauma from Henry's assault and the slugs, post canon. Read tags!!

Summary
"Breathe," he whispered, and Will felt his bottom lip graze his ear. "You're okay. You're okay."
Hands shaking, he hugged Mike back, panting.
"He...told..." Will choked out, tears already streaming down his face.
"Shhh," He could feel Mike's warm breath against his ear. "It's just me."
Or:
When Will is cursed by Vecna, the only thing that manages to wake him up is Mike.
But Will has been told from a very young age that boys like Mike don't like boys like Will, and the question isn't if Mike truly loves Will—it's if Will sees himself as more than a diseased, unlovable person to believe him.

Summary
"The next morning didn't start with a beautiful Vegas sunrise; it started with a harsh thumping inside Will’s skull that felt like an earthquake in his head
He let out a dry, rattling groan, his throat feeling like he’d swallowed a handful of the desert sand. Every inch of his skin stung – specifically his neck and a very suspicious patch on his lower back. Squinting against the brutal Vegas sun stabbing through the curtains, Will realized he was down to just his pajama bottoms. He swung his legs over the side of the bed, intent on reaching the bathroom, but his foot landed squarely on something soft and fleshy.
A muffled groan came from the floor.
Will looked down to see Mike sprawled on the carpet, still wearing his crusty button-down from the night before. Will gave him a frantic, toe-nudging kick. "Mike! Get up. I think I’m dying."
Mike rolled onto his back with a pained hiss, and Will’s jaw hit the floor. Mike’s neck and collarbone were a chaotic, purple-and-blue map of hickeys, and – were those teeth marks?"
OR: The party if they had a "Hangover" moment in Vegas for Will's 21st Birthday. [Basically a rewrite of The Hangover movie, but with the party]
