    Summary

    There's a strange, unfamiliar feeling that lingers in the air between them, with no way of knowing if it's shared. It almost feels like some kind of rift, forcing them apart and then back together. 
    No – it's something more… real. More tangible.
    More terrifying.

    "Hey, um… Mike?" 

    Will’s voice is distant, muffled by their backs turned to each other. There’s a shuffle of blankets as his weight shifts, but Mike doesn’t turn to face him.

    "Yeah?"

    "...Were you lying?"

    Silence.

    "...Mike?"

     

    Following the ending of S5 vol 1., Mike and Will navigate their feelings for each other, dangerous misunderstandings, an ultimately manipulated story, and, unknowingly, how to break their curse when it inevitably all comes down to them to save the world -- and each other.
    **this fic IS byler, but it's written into the story in a realistic way that makes the story and especially mike's character make much more sense. him, will, and especially el, deserved so much better.
    plot holes and (most) of our grievances will be fixed in this story.
    stay tuned, this is something i plan to finish :)

    Summary

    “Uh-huh,” Mike says faintly, and he yelps when they narrowly avoid the edge of a shining skyscraper, and his hands clutch onto Spiderman instinctively. “Oh – my fucking God, that –”

    Spiderman’s fingers press a little firmly into Mike’s shirt. "Just – hang on!"

    "What do you mean just hang – was that a pun," Mike sputters, clutching onto Spiderman for dear life as they swing through the city, and he can hear the superhero laugh through the racing wind in his ears, the rumble of it under Mike’s arm wrapped around his middle.

    In a city of superheroes, Mike keeps running into Spiderman, much to his dismay.
    On a completely different and unrelated note, Mike also attempts to woo and charm his neighbor into a date.

    Summary

    And – that feels awfully revealing, so he adds, “I like the suit.”

    Mike brightens, and he’s just a step or two away, now, and Will could reach out and touch him. “I’m glad,” he says, “I was – I was hoping you would.”

    “Oh.” Will really wants to kiss him. “Well, I do.”

    Mike beams. “Good.”

    “Good,” Will echoes, feeling at a loss for what to say, but it doesn’t seem to matter when Mike’s grin only widens, and then his hands are on Will again, like they always seem to be, lately, and Will has no protests when they’re only a few inches away from each other.

    Mike has been acting strange, and, if Will didn't know any better, he'd almost think Mike was flirting with him.
    Thankfully, he knows better.
    Kind of.

    Summary

    It’s at that very moment that, for reasons completely and utterly unknown to anyone at all, every single possible word he has ever learned from any language ever has suddenly disappeared from his brain, and his throat feels relevant to the Sahara Desert.

    None of this, of course, has to do with the fact that Will is very, very, very – shirtless.

    Will blinks at him. “Are you okay?”

    “Shoulders,” Mike says, sounding vaguely chipmunk-like, and he hears Max barely choke down a snicker.

    Will comes back for the summer, and Mike deals with it.
    Kind of. Not really.

    Summary

    “No. No, Mike, can you hear me?” He nods, ever so slightly. It’s enough for Will. If he’s dying— if these are truly the last words that will ever be spoken between them— there’s only one thing he can say. “I love you. I’m in love with you, Mike, please. You can’t go. I love you so much,” Will whispers, cradling his body to his chest.

    Will confesses his feelings as Mike takes his last breaths— and then Mike decides to be a stubborn asshole about it and survives. Will is left to deal with the aftermath of his choice, navigating an awkward new friendship.
