    Summary

    “We’ve only got two weeks left before you have to leave,” Will mumbles, threading his fingers through Mike’s, who is trying his best not to cry. “What are we going to do?”

    Mike inches closer to Will, wrapping his free arm around him. Will instinctively rests his head on Mike’s shoulder. “I don’t know,” he answers truthfully. “But we’ll figure it out, won’t we?”

    OR:

    When Mike Wheeler's parents tell him he needs to move to Lenora to live with the Byers for four months during the summer to get his act together and curb his bad behavior in Hawkins, he thinks things couldn’t possibly get worse.

    That is, until he meets their son, Will.

    The more time they spend together, the more Mike realizes that living in Lenora might be the least of his worries.

    Summary

    It seemed like a good idea at the time. Renting a beach house with your friends for the summer - after last year's warm breeze flew you apart on different journeys.

    But what do you do when your best friend is seemingly way ahead of you - in just about everything?

    Maybe it was a bad idea when Will suggested that he and Mike should race against each other to see who could lose their virginity first.

    That summer wasn’t going to be anything he’d ever imagined. Much worse than losing a stupid fucking race and much better than winning it.

    “We could make a race out of it?” Maybe it was the way Will’s eyes beamed and the way the words of the suggestion left him, that intrigued something in Mike.

    Mike hesitated before answering, not wanting to sound too eager, “How?”

    “Whoever gets laid first, wins.”

    Summary

    Ever since their return to Hawkins in the previous spring, Will has kept a careful distance from Mike, keeping himself busy with school clubs to avoid spending time with Mike one on one - because every time they're in a room together, he finds himself on the verge of saying things he shouldn't, asking questions he knows are only going to hurt him. But then a snowstorm wreaks havoc in Hawkins, trapping him and Mike in the Wheeler house while the rest of the family are gone. And now Will has no choice but to confront everything he has tried so hard to ignore.

    -

    Or: Mike and Will are home alone at the Wheeler house for a week.

    Summary

    “It’s s’posed to be a bowl!” tears roll down his face now.
    He laughs, “you don’t like my hair?”
    “I’m sorry—I didn’t mean it. I really love it. It’s just that you're old and different now, it’s scary,” his hands scrunch into Will’s shirt.
    “Okay. You’re very drunk,” he pushes Mike off of him gently. Mike’s arms clumsily reach out in an attempt to hold him again. “You know you shouldn’t compliment a gay guy like that. He might get the wrong idea.”
    Mike furrows his brows at him. If he was sober, Mike would be able to pick up the sarcasm in his voice, but right now his brain is functioning at an all time low. “Good thing I’m gay then. That’s the idea I want them to have.”

    or
    Will hasn't talked to Mike for two years. He's happily living his life at college in San Diego. Max's dad just so happens to have a beach house in the same place. So she brings them all on vacation.
    Problems arise when Mike drunkly comes out to him. Why should that matter to Will though? He's over Mike.

    Title is a lyric from 'Actor' by Conan Gray
