Summary
"I- I want to help you," Mike says, his eyes still closed. "Help you feel good."
Thrill zips up Will's spine. The words are straight out of a fantasy, out of a dream he's certain he's had about Mike, before.
His hands grip the sheets under him. Mike must've meant it in a different way. Will's reading into this, like he always does.
"Have you ever…" And here, Mike's hesitation makes him meet Will's eyes again. Will's breath catches at the sight. His pupils are blown out, his breath uneven. He looks hungry.
"Have you ever touched yourself, Will?"

Summary
He’s back there. Back in that library, in the corner of the room he thought was safest.
The air is thick and heavy, reeking of sulfur and decay, clinging to his skin like oil. each of his movements feeling sluggish, like his body is moving through molasses. he tastes blood drip out of his mouth, soaking into the fabric of his shirt and pooling beneath him. Every breath sends a fresh wave of pain radiating through his torso.

Summary
Mike and will drunkenly sleep together after Stacy’s party.
— or —
He’d thought he was over Mike. He’d told himself he was. He’d accepted that Mike would never feel the same way. Mike wasn’t like him. Untouchable. Unavailable. A dead end. He’d made peace with that over 18 months ago when the world was ending.
But now Mike was here. And he was touching him. Looking at him like this. Like he wanted him.
And Will was too drunk, too raw, too undone to shove the feelings back down where they belonged.

Summary
Will is used to giving Mike space when he disappears into his papers. He's never been the clingy type anyway.
But some days, space becomes distance, and patience gives way to a quiet, insistent need for touch and attention.
Luckily, Mike notices the shift.
