Summary
He watches as Mike, with one long step and a slight turn, sits down on the closed lid of the toilet. “Dustin’s right.” Will leans back on the sink, looking down over at Mike. “You look good.”
Will’s glad that El had applies copious amounts of makeup to his face, because Mike Wheeler after ten years can still make him blush, even with a total of like five words. “He actually said hot.” Will quips, his smile sliding into more of a smirk.
Mike gives a small shrug. “Well, that too I guess.”
OR: It's Halloween, and there's a Houseparty. Will can only hope that he gets a treat, because three months after defeating Vecna, he's not sure that any of the Party deserve to be tricked.

Summary
“I need you.”
Will’s expression grows more stunned. “What?” he breathes, voice barely above a whisper.
His instincts tell him to take it all back, but the way that Will’s looking at him with those sorrowful, questioning eyes weakens him. And he’s been stupid for many, many years, so what’s a little more stupidity?
aka a s5 speculatory mike wheeler-centric fic about his internalised homophobia and a lot of moments where he's not so clever about his feelings with will

Summary
It was just that Mike couldn’t stop thinking about Will’s eyes. Or his hair—he had grown it out since their sophomore year started and it looked fluffier than it had ever been. Mike couldn’t stop thinking about Will’s laugh—it was constantly ringing through his head. Will’s smile was stuck on his mind, too. Same with his shy kindness and his adorable passion about the smallest things, and—
Wait.
Shit.
This wasn’t normal.
or, where Mike realizes he's head over heels for Will at 3 AM and mindlessly rides his bike across Hawkins just to tell him.
