Summary
“Are you offended that people think we’re dating?”
“No,” Mike says immediately. “Of course not,” because, again, he should be so lucky.
Will’s baffled expression does not change. “Then why would I be?”
“So– okay, fine, whatever. Should we, like, tell them to get their heads out of their asses and that we’re not– um– dating, or–”
“I think,” Will cuts in, “well. You know what would be funny?”
Honestly, Mike doesn't know what he thought being Will Byers' fake-boyfriend would entail, but he definitely didn't think it would involve this many ugly Christmas sweaters.

Summary
“Whatever," Lucas shrugs. "You’re just jealous that you aren’t getting any.”
Mike raises an eyebrow, like he knows something the rest of them don't. Will looks like he wants to drown him. He probably deserves it.
In which Will has a love bite, the Party freaks out about it, and Mike is jealous of himself.

Summary
I just haven’t wanted anything to shift our dynamic. I know it sounds stupid, but it's the truth. Our relationship was rocky, to say the least, when I came back from Lenora, and even though Mike and I have been good for years now, there’s still that fear in the back of my head. That any major change would jeopardize what we have. Mike’s always been the protector, and I like that about him. I like that he stands up for me against bullies, and I like that he’s always making sure that I’m ok. No, I don’t like feeling like I’m weak, but Mike manages to protect me without demeaning me. It’s nice, better than nice, even.
And Mike likes it too. He needs to feel useful, and I can give that feeling to him. So why would I go and mess that up? Spider-Man can protect himself. Spider-Man can knock a bully’s lights out in a second flat. But Will Byers? Will Byers can’t do that, and that’s the person Mike likes being friends with. I wanna keep being the person that Mike likes being friends with.
-or-
Will Byers as Spiderman AU where the party has lived in Manhattan all their lives. Post-Vecna, pre-college, 1980s, El lives.
