Summary
Will blinks. Mike is looking at him with an amused look on his face, wide-eyed and a little pink across the bridge of his nose, and God, okay, Will wants to–
“Um,” he says instead. “Huddling? For warmth?”
“For warmth,” Lucas echoes, and then looks back at Dustin again. “Huddling. For warmth.”
“Like penguins,” Mike offers, and then rests his head on Will’s shoulder like this is supposed to be helping, or something.
Will Byers and the harrowing experience of being snowed in with your mom, your almost-stepdad, all of your friends, and your (kind of) (secret) boyfriend.

Summary
“Nah, man,” Lucas shakes his head, leaning back as he snacks on an apple, “he got, like, buff. Do you see his arms?”
Mike does, in fact, see Will’s arms. He has not stopped seeing his arms.
“She definitely sees his arms,” Dustin very unhelpfully points out, waggling his eyebrows, and Mike gets the overwhelming urge to bash his own head in.While volunteering at the Hawkins' help center, it seems like every girl around has a newfound interest in Will Byers, and Mike doesn't know why he feels the way he does.

Summary
“Mike, you’re so… You’re really gonna make me say it out loud?” Will was practically begging inside his mind for Mike to just understand. For Mike to just put it together himself and know what Will was trying to say.
“If I’m wrong, I’ll never forgive myself,” Mike confessed. Will was so confused, but he was growing increasingly impatient with the weight of Mike’s hands still delicately on him.
“Do you need me to spell it out for you? I’m in love with you,” Will was on the cusp of shattering and was, to put it simply, really over dancing around the topic. If Mike was going to have his fingertips in the divots of his throat, lying right on his arteries, Will couldn’t take being in the dark anymore about this.

Summary
“I couldn’t let him hurt you,” Will blurts out. He turns back to Mike now, and there’s a desperation in Will’s eyes that damn near takes Mike’s breath away. “When I… when I saw that demo about to attack you, I just… I just knew I had to do something. Anything. I… I couldn’t lose you.”
Warmth rushes to Mike’s cheeks. That same, fluttery feeling from before has returned with a vengeance, and there’s a dozen different thoughts swirling around in his mind. Will wanted to protect him. Mike.
It’s dizzying to even try to wrap his mind around.
Or:
In the aftermath of the MAC-Z battle, Mike and Will have a discussion about Will's powers, his friendship with Robin, and his newfound self-confidence.
