    Summary

    “Wait,” Will said in a harsh, croaky voice. He felt like his brain was dribbling out of his ears and he fell onto the couch with a small poof of air as he stared at Mike in such a hard daze that it was a wonder he didn’t pass out again. “I - what do you - “

    They stared at each other.

    The air was thick and suddenly it was like Will could taste ozone at the back of his tongue, like electricity was coating his mouth and didn’t leave any room to breathe, to think, and his voice was wobbly, uncertain, as he said, “what do you mean… other boys?”

    ***

    Will tells everybody about his Tammy.

    Mike, of course, reacts in a totally normal way.

    Summary

    “Meow,” and there’s no way she heard that right, eyes snapping away from where she’d been distractedly watching the TV screen and over to her brother’s friend. She checks again, and yeah, Will is holding a stuffed bear, not a cat. The beloved Tiggy stays firmly attached to his bag, so they aren’t playing with tigers, either.

    “So they go back down the mountain, and now all the village people are asking them about the crystal, and Rory is sad thinking they didn’t get it that whole time, but then–”

    “Meow. Meow,” Will declares, removing the teddy from the dinosaur’s back and making it do some sort of interpretive dance.

    Or, Mike makes a new friend. Nancy learns how to speak cat.

    Summary

    “That’s because she loves you.” Mike tells him “And she thinks you have a very lickable face.” he adds, teasingly.
    “Does she?” Will asks, eyebrows raised “Or do you?” he teases, in a moment of bravery.
    “You do know what they say…” Mike shrugs, before locking his eyes with Will's hazel ones “Like father, like daughter.” he tells him, boldly.
    Will's face goes bright pink at the statement.
    God, how is he surviving this at all?

    OR

    Mike and Will rescue a little kitten from the rain. It leads to a lot of wondering, hoping, bickering and falling in love.

    Summary

    “Knew he had it in him,” she says, curling her fingers in a half wave to Joyce. Joyce, who had been on Mike’s side at first, but now, apparently, is totally fine with the idea of her sixteen year old son dating a grown woman.

    Mike can’t control the way his lip curls at that. “Right,” he says dryly. “I forgot how well you know him.”

    Robin frowns at him. “What’s that supposed to mean?”

    Mike scoffs. “Nothing. It’s just odd, how suddenly you’re, like, obsessed with him. Isn’t he a little young for you?”

    Robin stares, and it feels a bit like she’s peeling back layers of his skin to stare down his insides. Like she knows. “You’re not Tammy Thompson,” she says quietly, like she doesn’t expect him to hear it. Her eyes widen, and Mike wonders if she meant to say that part out loud. She does that a lot. What does Will see in her?

    Robin and Will are friends. Mike is definitely okay with this.

    Summary

    Sometimes, even this close, always in the same space, Mike feels like there’s a want inside him that aches so much, like Will is somehow going to drift away if he doesn’t reach out and latch onto him. He’s clingy, he’s gross, and the world has already ended and somehow pieced itself back together.

    Maybe Mike deserves to be clingy and gross and a little, a lot, in love.

    --

    Or, Mike and Will have their first kiss during the end of the world. Kissing a second time, when everything is finally back to normal, takes a lot more courage.
