Summary
“What did you mean, ‘we’re not friends anymore’?” Will demands.
“Oh god,” Mike says faintly, because he can’t think of a single other thing to say.
“It’s Will, actually,” Will says. “Or maybe you forgot that in the five years since you last bothered to speak to me before you sent me this.”
He unfolds his arms to brandish a crumpled envelope in Mike’s face, and he knows without even looking at his own handwriting on the front exactly what it is.
(or, the summer after all his friends graduate from college, mike writes will a letter to say goodbye. predictably, nothing about this goes as planned.)

Summary
“Well, it was nice meeting you two,” David said. He leaned forward towards Will, and gave him a single, light pat on his head.
“And I’ll see you around,” he said softly.
Will blinked up at him in a daze, eyes wide and cheeks gaining a tint of pink again.
Mike stared, stunned. Did he just touch Will’s hair? Mike was the only one that ever did that!
Mike's semester takes a serious turn when—
A) He realizes he's in love with his best friend
B) A popular handsome senior takes interest in said best friend, and he can't stand it- Language:

Summary
“Will, I love you very much,” Max starts, “but there’s no way your weird little coffee shop freak has a girlfriend.”
“His name is Mike,” Will says, because he would know, because he’s the one that’s been writing Mike :) in sharpie on his to-go cups for the last six months, “and he doesn’t have a girlfriend. He has a wife.”
Will’s favorite regular comes in with a girl. Clearly, they’re married.

Summary
After months of dancing around a drunk confession, Will finally gets a weight off his chest - leading to a night of tension-filled games.
“What about– cause, I mean, I know that you haven’t– um, you know, with the past few…”
Will’s jaw slammed shut - deciding that shutting the fuck up was the better idea. His skin flushed red, heat rising above the collar of his shirt, and his eyes darted around in desperate search of anyone. At the opposite end of the hall, Lucas spoke to Max with matching dopey grins. Though, both of them were too distracted by each other to notice Will’s discomfort.
His attention re-met Mike as he was about to spurt out some lame excuse why he needed to leave immediately: only for his mouth to remain shut at the sight of a small smile pulling Mike’s lips. The muscles in Will’s stiff body relaxed a degree.

Summary
Spending the summer in Hawkins had been wonderful - they’d moved back in the middle of June, integrating into their new home and re-familiarizing themselves with the town. Their friends had, of course, welcomed them with open arms, and the rest of the summer had been spent like it always had - hanging out around town, taking over Steve’s pool and abusing his summer job at the video store, sleepovers in Mike’s basement and afternoons at the arcade.
It had been wonderful, yet also overwhelming.
One thing he hadn’t missed in California, was the agony of being close to Mike.
The kicker of that, of course, is that there had been the agony of being away from Mike.
Will’s conclusion is that he’s just meant to suffer.
Are they ready to be swept off their feet?
