   Summary

   He felt a weight on him.

   It was heavy and warm and breathing. He cracked one eye open and saw a mess of brown hair shoved directly under his chin.

   He was currently horizontal and thought his brain had been replaced by a bag of wet rocks. Did he bite him?

   Right there, on the pale skin of Will’s neck, was a dark, unmistakable bruise. A bite mark. A fucking hickey. Mike’s stomach did that slow, nauseous flip.

   Yeah, he definitely bit him. He was acting like a total animal. A carnivore.

   or:
   Just straight bros road-trip. Mike is a nervous wreck, gripping the wheel of a dying Volvo while trying to ignore the fact that he was losing his mind. He was still stubbornly convinced that Will Byers was undeniably straight. Will was just cool as shit. Between a gross motel and a romantic keychain, the feeling got out of hand. Mike was finally realizing he couldn't outrun the truth.
