Summary
Michelle Wheeler is an avid hater of many things, including torrid summer days, college parties, and overly vague essay prompts. The list runs long, and it is still growing.
A recent addition to her list made Michelle's world tilt on its axis, disrupting the gravitational force of her judgment — she hates pet names.
Specifically, one petname. And Willow happens to say it all the time.

Summary
A rising popstar basking in the spotlight. A nonchalant rockstar driven by passion. They couldn't be more different.
When a one-off collaboration unexpectedly blows up, winning a special award, the last thing they expect is for the world to demand more. But there comes Park Jinyoung - a legend, mogul, and dealmaker - offering them a contract under the biggest company in the industry...as a duo.
What happens when they're stuck together in the studio, on the stage, in the relentless eye of the public? Will the line between rivalry and attraction blur? Love was never part of the deal.

Summary
Will attends a baseball game with his friends and struggles with jealousy over the coworker Mike has been talking to a lot lately. But when the Kiss Cam highlights Mike and their coworker, Mike doesn't kiss her. He kisses Will.
Update: I have since started posting chapters of an extended version of this fic. It is not completed, but I will be posting chapters regularly. I start it back to when Will moves after losing his job.

Summary
“That’s not my favorite.”
“Oh.” Will blinks. “What is?”
Mike’s tongue darts out to wet his lower lip. “O negative.” Will feels a flush move across his entire body. His magic hums inside of him, excited. His fingers twitch against the carton. Maybe Will was wrong, maybe this is different than having a favorite kind of pizza. More personal. O negative sits differently in Will’s head than double black olives with extra cheese does. More intimate.
“Oh.” Will blinks again. And maybe O negative sits differently in Will’s head, because it also flows through his veins. He feels obligated to tell Mike. “I’m O negative.”
Mike’s pupils widen again. “I know.” His voice is low, gravelly.
Will’s breath hitches again. “You know?” He flinches when Mike’s fingers graze his, peeling the carton out of Will’s hand.
Mike takes a deep breath. “I can smell it.”
Or, five times that Will offered Mike his blood and the one time that Mike accepted.

Summary
Dustin hums in agreement while he swallows his bite. “It’s like, against his factory settings to say no to you. What do you need him to do, model for you or something?”
Will shoves his face back into his hands. “I’m going to fail.”
Max rolls her eyes. “You’re not going to fail, you’re going to paint Mike.”
Will lifts his head up from his hands, eyes wide, and shakes his head. “You don’t understand.” He pleads with his awful, awful friends, voice low. “He’s been, he’s using my-he came out of my bathroom in just a towel last night.”
Studio art major Will Byers has a study of the human body due before the semester ends, is in desperate need for a model, and has a huge, life-altering, heart wrenching crush on his best friend.
Enter: Mike Wheeler, his broken shower, and his collection of plaid-print boxers.

Summary
Sixteen months after the end of the world, Hawkins is quiet. No monsters. No emergencies. Just heat, cicadas, and long summer days that stretch on forever.
With Eleven away and Will living in his house, Mike finds himself noticing things he never let himself see before—the way silence feels fuller when Will is near, the way shared space turns into shared nights, the way something unspoken keeps building between them.
Will has always loved carefully, showing his feelings through presence instead of words. Mike has always been afraid of saying the wrong thing and breaking something precious.
As summer presses in and excuses fall away, they’re forced to face what’s been there all along: a slow, steady love waiting to be chosen.
