Summary
I have another confession, I jerked off to Will ALL summer long.
There it is, on paper.
I jerked off to the thought of him so many times, I think my dick almost fell off. I'm a disgusting human being, I know.
OR
Mike starts a diary to cope with his feelings for Will, it turns into a place for his fantasies instead. When Will reenacts one of them, Mike's only conclusion can be that the diary is making them come true. That idea is only half correct.

Summary
Mike would like the record to show that he found BDSMtest.org entirely by accident.
OR
Mike finds a BDSM test online while doing research to "help Will" with his "incompatibility" issues. Naturally, he takes it and sends it to the entire party at 1:30am because he's totally and completely normal about all of this.

Summary
“Okay.”
Mike snaps his head to Will, looking for a sign that he didn’t hear him right. Will just keeps looking at the ceiling, cheeks now bright red.
“O-okay…?” He asks.
Will nods, his chest heaving faster than before. “Okay.”
He pulls his eyebrows together. “Just- just to make sure, you’re saying okay to-”
“You wanna jerk off with me here.”
Mike’s eyes widen, and he quickly looks back up to the ceiling.
“Okay,” Will repeats.
OR
Will is staying at the Wheelers' for the summer before their junior year of college, and Mike is starting to realize there are a lot of things he likes about having Will in his bed. Will's excuses of Mike just being "pent up" start to run out when Mike offers a solution to fix that: getting each other off. (Like all great best friends do, of course.)

Summary
It’s September 1989, baby.
Mike Wheeler and Will Byers finally leave Hawkins for NYU: Will for fine art, Mike for biology on a pre-med track he swears is a “compromise.”
New York was supposed to be a fresh start. Instead, it turns their “friends—no, thanks—best friends” truce into something impossible to ignore.
—
A romantic tragicomedy about living as broke-ass students in NYC in 1989/1990, becoming adults and finding their people. And they make out AND date, of course.Set during the AIDS crisis. Because you don’t get to be queer in New York without it in the room.
But they’re going to be okay. Promise.Comments are always appreciated!

Summary
“To be fair, Mike isn’t necessarily thinking with his brain right now. Maybe that’s a little selfish of him. Maybe this is even taking advantage. Finding a creature in the woods, one that is so much like him but so exotic, worth so very much. At least, that’s what most others would think. They would look at Will and see dollar signs. All Mike sees is a porcelain doll, one that he wants to cherish just as much as he wants to break.”
OR
Mike Wheeler is a hunter who insists that hybrids and mystical beings exist in the tranquil woods of Indiana. One day, he is proven correct. What he didn’t expect is that the creature he finds would be so beautiful.

Summary
“I can do that. I will do anything. How can I make you feel good bab—”
Will flinched and pulled Mike’s hair. “No don’t—call me that. A-anything but that.”
Mike nodded and leaned in to place a gentle kiss on Will’s lips.
“Okay, how can I make you feel good, sorcerer?” Mike’s eyebrows were dancing, as Will finally cracked a smile and leaned his forehead against Mike’s.
“Oh my god, I hate you.”
“No you don’t.”
“No—I don’t.”
Or—It had been seven years since the party ended in Mike Wheeler’s basement that night after graduation. He was drowning in a sea of conformity, grasping at the only lifeline that ever made sense to him, his imagination.
He ends up in New York after years of isolation, curious to know if his former best friend still lived in the city. Mike felt completely aimless, until he stumbled upon a gallery, and saw a painting of his younger self hung in an exhibit, a plaque next to the frame reading, “First Love-W.B”.
Mike reacts about as well as you would expect, faced with the reality he’d always been too scared to admit.
He had to find Will, but he wouldn’t find him alone.

Summary
“Wait, why don’t we just practice together?”
Will’s jaw slacks open. There's a bit of a pause—a small fleeting moment as he studies Mike, stunned.
“It could be, like, a nightly thing.”
“You want to…” Will hesitates. “…kiss each other goodnight?”
Oh.
“Well, when you put it like that, it sounds kinda…”
“Gay?” Will scoffs.
A summer in Montauk has both Mike and Will edging the line between friendship and something else. What’s more? Mike is seeing a girl that is totally and utterly fake.
OR: Summer of 1990 is spent at the beach, reading a gay textbook, and kinda-sorta kissing Will Byers.

Summary
Will remembers how his stomach dropped when Mike showed up outside his bedroom window, flesh torn up by claws and bite marks, blood spilling everywhere. He especially remembers how the following morning, Mike woke up completely healed and acted like he didn't just get mauled the night before.
So yeah, Mike Wheeler is a werewolf now.
Or: Will ends up helping Mike through his very first full moon as a werewolf. He just didn't expect it to end up like this (though, he isn't really complaining).

Summary
Knock knock knock
“Jesus Christ! Hold on,” he mumbles, floating down the steps. He flicks on the porch light and yanks the door open. “What the hell are you–” He freezes.
For a moment, he really does believe he’s dreaming. You know, given that not a single fucking thing about this situation makes any goddamn sense. Because on the short trip from his bedroom to the front door, Mike made a list in his head of all of the people that could potentially be on the other side. It was a rather abbreviated list, to be fair: The cops. Nancy. His landlady, Freida. That one drunk guy he occasionally gives a cigarette to if he happens to be smoking on his porch when he walks by.
But it’s not any of those people. It’s Will. A year older, soaking wet, shivering with a waterlogged duffel bag slung over his left shoulder. Yeah. He’s dreaming. Because he had spoken to Will on the phone not even ten hours ago. He was about to go on his three year anniversary date with his long term boyfriend in New York City.
OR:
Will needs some space from his boyfriend, James, and for whatever reason, he decides to take that space at Mike's townhouse in Boston. Mike is going to be so normal about it.

Summary
"Is this close enough for you?"
Both of Mike's arms wrap firmly around Will's waist, pulling him entirely flush against his own body. "No… Not really."
Will rises up slightly on his toes, wrapping his arms around Mike and resting his chin over his shoulder until he can feel the fast thump of Mike's heartbeat pounding against his own chest.
Mike shudders. His grip on Will's waist tightens, and he turns his head, his nose brushing against the sensitive skin right below Will's ear.
"I don't think I'd ever get close enough to you."
Or: Will is convinced that moving away for college will starve out his feelings. Instead, it just results in Mike booking a weekend trip to finally close the distance—in every sense of the word.

"Do you seriously just let him control you like that all the time? You're not his fucking dog, dude."

After all, if Mike wants to take care of him...
who is Will to say no?OR

Summary
Mike's grip on Will's throat loosens and he can’t help the way he gasps, gulping down air as his fingers curl in Mike’s stupid Falling in Reverse tee. He can feel him panting against his neck, his nose bumping against the tender bite mark there.
“Get that out of your system?” Mike huffs, nosing his way up Will’s neck. “Gonna be on your best behaviour on this tour, right?”
Will lets his eyes flutter shut despite himself, his stomach twisting at Mike’s words.
“No promises.”
Or; now that school's out for summer, the Demodogs set out on a dive bar tour. On the road, Mike and Will's relationship becomes (more) complicated.

Summary
“What exactly does this pact entail, then?”
Mike leans forward very seriously, bringing his face close to Will’s.
“When they make it legal for you to get married, because they will.” He pauses, as if to make sure that Will is listening. Will laughs and nods for him to go on. “And if we’re both still alone and miserable—”
“Wow. Is that the awesome future you’re painting for us on our last night?”
“Shh.” Mike is doing a decent job at staying in character, but the crinkles around his eyes are giving him away. “If we’re both still alone by then… and at least partially miserable. That part’s important,” he continues dramatically, “I’ll marry the shit out of you, William Byers. Deal?”
Or, before heading off to college, Mike and Will make a pact. Fifteen years later, gay marriage is legalized in the state of Massachusetts. These two events are intrinsically linked to one another.

Summary
No, there was no way. Like seriously no way. He’d just been thinking about Will a lot recently. Will was far too shy to pose for pictures like this. He just… wouldn’t do that. Not his Will. Mike would just find the page again and prove it was someone else. He would open the magazine and see a stranger on the page, and everything would be fine.
As he flipped back, he prayed to a God that he didn't believe in. Please, let that model be a stranger.
How gay is it to jerk off after stumbling across a suggestive picture of your old best friend? Maybe it’s excusable. Suggestive is suggestive, after all. And everyone can agree that Will is a stunning dude.
But joining an AIDS coalition, getting a lap dance from a drag queen, spending the night in a holding cell, and accidentally finding a place in Chicago's queer community?
Yeah, that’s… pretty gay.
