    Summary

    There’s something wrong with Will.

    It started three weeks ago, almost four. Will had woken from some sort of nightmare and, instead of seeking comfort in Mike the way he usually would, he’d rolled out a sleeping bag from the closet and chosen to sleep on the floor.

    No one believes Mike, except for Joyce. But even she doesn’t understand the full extent to which something is wrong with Will.

     

    Mike understands, though. Mike has been paying attention.

    Summary

    "I-It was so loud... in my head. I just needed to quiet the noise. I-It was the only thing that would make it 𝙨𝙩𝙤𝙥."

    Mike's teeth are chattering so hard they hurt. He's shaking, his voice is shaking, and everything is spinning. The world ripples like murky water through his tears and blotchy vision, but Will is still. He focuses on him, on the fingers trickling soothingly down his spine like they're strumming a harp, and the smaller hand wriggled into his own, on the warmth of the body beside his own.

    "I-I thought I-I could just stop whenever I needed to..."

    "But you can't?" Will whispers. He sounds anguished, and it floods Mike with more shame than he can stomach. He gulps loudly, and at the nauseated look, Will looks slightly alarmed before Mike manages to reel his sickness back.

    "No..." Mike echoes. It's horrific to admit, "I can't."
