Work Text:
Mike, Will, Joyce, and Jonathan all sat in a room. Will sitting on a sofa whilst the rest sat on various different chairs.
“So, what is it you wanted to tell us, honey?” Joyce asked, a hint of worry in her voice.
Will hesitated before speaking, worrying Joyce even more.”I-I…I’m going to tell you something. You’re probably gonna hate me afterwards. You can never talk to me again but just please, listen.
Jonathan glanced at Joyce worriedly. “Will, you know there is nothing that would ever make me hate you, right?” Will sighed. “I know but please, just listen”
Joyce tried to protest but Jonathan gave her a look basically saying “Just hold on” Joyce, still worried, sighed and nodded slightly. “Okay..”
Will smiled slightly. “O-okay so…I..I just wanted to say that I..I’m” Mike smiled at him slightly.
“Gay.” He finished. He closed his eyes, waiting for the backlash. After a few seconds of pure silence, he opened his eyes to see Mike, Jonathan, and Joyce staring at him.
Jonathan stood up, walking straight over to Will and pulling him into a tight hug. “I love you” He stated.
Will started to cry. Full on, nose running, eyes leaking sobbing. “I-I love you too” Joyce also stood up, joining the hug. “Oh honey, there is nothing in this world that could ever make me hate you”
Will continued sobbing. After a few minutes, Jonathan and Joyce pulled away from the hug. Will opened his eyes for the first time in a minute and saw Mike. Mike flashed Will a small nervous but no the less warm smile before walking over to him and pulling him into an even bigger one than the one he’d just had.
“Mike..” He breathed out. Mike laughed, it was only then that Will noticed Mike was also crying, only a bit, but still still crying. “You could never make me hate you Will” Mike whispered into his ear. Will felt like he could start sobbing all over again.
“Mike-” Will started again. Mike shushed him. “Shh, it’s okay Will. I could never hate you for who you love because well…I-I love you too Will” Will eyes widened.
Will glanced back around Mike to look for Joyce and Jonathan, but it seems like they understood this was an important moment and had already left the room.
“Y-you love me..?” Will asked, his voice quiet but yet so loud in the deathly silent room.
Mike chuckled. “Yes Will. That is what I just said, hmm?”
Will laughed slightly, but still shook his head as if he were still trying to understand. “But…I don’t- Why do you..love me..?”
Mike sighed, resting his forehead against Will’s. “Because, you’re an amazing person Will. And, out of everyone I know, you deserve the most love” Will was crying again, wonderful happy tears.
“Oh Mike” Mike smiled. “Yeah?” Will just giggled, Mike laughed in response. “What?” He asked in a teasing tone. “It’s just..I never thought my dream would come true…” Mike’s eyes widened slightly.
“What’s your dream?” He asked. Will just grinned. “That you’d love me” Mike stared at Will in awe for a moment before pulling him in for a quick kiss. “You idiot. Of course I love”
Will just closed his eyes, embracing the moment. “I love you too”
