   Summary

   Mike has a secret hobby: writing anonymously posted fanfiction about a fandom's popular ship from a TV show. It's how he copes with his feelings for Will when he can't put it into words—by putting them into very, very detailed smut instead.

   He doesn’t expect this to become the most viral fic on the platform—and even less that his best friend would read it.
