    Summary

    Soulmate AU. Will Byers has been waiting his whole life to find his soul's missing piece. When he does, it doesn't go exactly the way he'd always dreamed.

    **

    Will watched the other man from the corner of his eye as the professor began speaking. Mike typed steadily, only pausing to chew on his highlighter or raise his hand to answer questions, drawing attention to Will’s little corner and making Will shrink a little at the eyes turned to his general vicinity. Every time Mike spoke, his adams apple bobbed, the tenor of his voice echoed through Will’s ears like a drum and Will shivered at the sound.

    Will could barely hear the professor speaking, he was too distracted by Mike’s close proximity. Jesus Christ, how was he supposed to concentrate when all he wanted to do was touch Mike, grab him and shake him and ask why the other man didn’t recognize Will? Why hadn’t he rejoiced at finding his perfect other half? Why didn’t he even look at Will like something life changing and remarkable had happened to them? Will’s face felt hot and he wanted to scream.

    Summary

    “You’re not boning, though, right?” he says, suddenly. He doesn’t know why he feels such an urge to bring it up again, as if the thought of Mike boning is not something that is CODE RED #1 at the top of Will's list of things to absolutely never think about. But also. Look–

    “What? No, of course I’m not boning,” Mike splutters, turning a violent shade of scarlet, “how would I even hide that from you, I’m with you all the time–”

    And then he falls silent, so fast that Will gets tonal whiplash from how fast Mike just went from saying boning over and over again to just clamping his mouth shut and staring at the wall across from them.

    Will's trying his hardest to make it through fall semester in one piece. Unfortunately for his degree, he's being haunted by maybe-feelings for his best friend (metaphorically), and also a maybe-ghost with rather abysmal fashion sense (literally).
