    Summary

    “And I just thought- y’know, since you finally had a crush, maybe you’d want to talk about it?” Mike bullshitted.

    Will scrubbed a hand across his forehead. “Right. Um. He’s great, I mean, incredible, actually. He understands stuff, like nobody else does. He’s the only person who’s ever made me feel truly okay in my skin and I-” he cut himself off. 

    Mike’s heart almost stopped beating. Maybe he wasn’t totally crazy.

    “Anyways. Focusing on him, when it’s hopeless- it’ll just make me feel like shit. I mean, after everything, it’s just me, y’know?” Will said softly. “Just me.” 

    “Yeah, but it doesn’t have to be.” Mike said. “Why should you be alone? Just because you’re… “ he took a deep, shaky breath. “...gay?” The word took effort to say, and it felt like he’d run a marathon once it’d left his mouth, his chest burning.

    Will stared and stared. “I…” his gaze flickered to the ground. “Because. He’s the only person I’ve ever…” he squeezed his eyes shut. “Been in love with.” 

    Mike blinked. Will was in love? With this boy who could maybe, possibly, probably be Mike?

    -

    Post Vol 2. With Operation Beanstalk in motion, Mike stops running from the one thing he's the most afraid of.

    Summary

    It’s fine. It’s totally fine. He’ll just go to sleep- and when he wakes up tomorrow, he’ll forget that this crisis had ever even happened. He closes his eyes, and tries to turn off his brain. It shouldn’t be too hard, probably. He’s heard Max make that joke enough times to suspect that there might be some truth in it. After all, Mike has spent this long being oblivious. Surely, he can manage one night more.

    Not even an hour later, he finds himself climbing up Will’s bedroom window.

    Mike has more realisations in one night than in two whole years. It's all Jonathan's fault.

    Summary

    “I want you to tell him why you're so upset," Vecna says, and Will swears he sees the curl of a smile in the webbed scars of his face. “I want to watch you lose him.”

    (Or, Will is forced by Vecna to confess his feelings to Mike, with a slow burn aftermath. Hypothetical Season 5.)

    Summary

    After playing his part in preventing the end of the world, Mike thought senior year would be a piece of cake. Compared to fighting monsters and keeping government secrets, how hard could it be to deal with regular family drama, looming college decisions and his suddenly blaring obsession with staring at his best friend?

    It's a gradual realization that he may have never wanted the things he thought he did一and some things, he may have wanted all along.

    Summary

    Max clears her throat. “Are you going to get to the part where you tell us what you want, or are you going to keep waxing poetic about Will’s emotions?”

    “Fuck you,” Mike grumbles. “I think we should have a Valentine’s Day party. For Will.”

    Dustin blinks. “You’re concerned about Will feeling sad because of the romantic connotations of Valentine’s Day and your big solution is to draw more attention to Valentine’s Day?”

    “Just listen!” Mike yelps.

    In which Will is sad, and Mike has a plan to fix it. Platonically, of course.
