Summary
I don't like girls. The words echoed in his head, twisting his stomach and making his chest feel like it might burst. Nothing in the room existed except that sentence.
OR: Mike overhears Will coming out to his mom and reacts in a totally normal way.

Summary
“We’ve all thought about exploring our best friend’s lips once or twice, don’t even sweat it,” Mike states as he lifts his head up and looks around the room, and before Will has time to process what the fuck Mike just said, he speaks again: “I’m bored. Come down to the basement with me? There’s, like, books and shit down there.”
Will is starting to get really tired of the way Mike has been sending his heart to run laps around his ribcage this evening. We’ve all thought— what the fuck? The cogs in his brain are not oiled nearly well enough to handle this revelation right now.
Graduation night was supposed to be simple: a small party, a couple of beers, and the usual dose of pining after Mike Wheeler.
Will only has two beers.
Mike, however, has a few more, and seemingly decides to lead Will into cardiac arrest with his sudden barrage of... flirting?
Add a tattoo choker and years of feelings Will thought were safely buried, and suddenly everything between them becomes impossible to ignore.Or
Post-canon Byler where Will is very, very unprepared for what Mike Wheeler does when he’s drunk, and what he says about it when he sobers up.

“Yeah,” Mike said lightly, though his voice was still rough around the edges. “Kissing. You know. There’s more to it than just… that.” He hesitated, then added, quieter, “Do you know what a hickey is?”
Yes.
"No. Is that something friends do?"
"Yeah... Can I show you?"

Or, Mike teaches Will some new things.

Summary
They lose each other at a party.
Mike finds Will kissing someone else—and realizes, far too late, that watching hurts worse than admitting the truth.
Drunk confessions, years of repression and declination, and one bathroom that becomes the point of no return. -

Summary
Mike swallowed the lump growing in his throat, finally finding the bravery to catch Will’s eye across the table. He was looking at him the same way he was downstairs in the basement. Mike felt his breath catch, quickly glancing anywhere else. It was animalistic, ravenous even. Lowered head, eyes watching him through his lashes, eyebrows raised. And it all said one thing;
‘Get everyone else out of here.’
