    Summary

    There stood Mike, frozen like a statue. In front of him, Will was bent over, digging through the fruit drawer of the refrigerator. After a moment, Will straightened up with a ripe peach in hand. Ted watched his son continue staring at the exact spot Will’s backside had just occupied, wearing an expression of pure, hopeless longing.

    Ted considered quietly backing out of the room.

    "For God's sake, Michael," He said, instead. "Either take something out or close the door. I'm not paying to refrigerate the whole neighborhood."

    Will turned around, blinking in mild confusion.

    Mike’s face bloomed bright red. The blush was quickly overtaken by a scowl. He slammed the refrigerator door hard enough to rattle every magnet on it. “I was getting something! Sorry it took more than two seconds-"

    “When exactly did your mother start storing the snacks in the back pockets of Will’s jeans?”

    “Oh my God.” Mike spun on his heel and stormed toward the stairs. “You are so-" The rest was lost to thundering footsteps and the inevitable slam of his bedroom door.

    Or, Ted realizes sometimes you need to be locked in the closet before coming out of it.

    Summary

    Anyways, the point is, Will thinks, that maybe his ghost roommate has escalated from small pranks and is actually now watching Will. Will supposes that's fine, but he does think that maybe it's a little perverted of the ghost to watch Will masturbate. Will trudges back into the house to wash his hands in the kitchen, crinkling his nose. He probably should be more upset about having a perverted ghost roommate, but sue him, he's lonely (and kind of horny).

    Will dries his hands off on an old dish towel and resigns himself to spending the rest of the afternoon on the couch, lounging around and flipping through channels on the staticky box TV.

    Maybe his perverted ghost roommate likes The X-Files too.

    In which Will thinks that his house is haunted (and he's right).

    Summary

    “Okay,” Mike said slowly, trying to keep his voice calm, “we’ll figure it out step by step. No pressure. I’ll… I’ll help you practice control, see how far you can go without, you know, frying the house.”
    Will peeked up at him, just enough to see the shy smile tugging at Mike’s lips. “I… I don’t even know if that’ll work,” he admitted, voice soft. “What if it doesn’t? What if it just keeps happening?”
    Mike shook his head firmly. “It will work. And if it doesn't, we’ll find something else. We always do.”
    Will’s lips quirked in the faintest hint of a smile. “You’re right. We always do.”
    Mike leaned forward, careful not to crowd him, “First we need to try to find a way to turn the lights back on. Reverse what you did. Do you think you can–” He gestures towards Will’s crotch, a blush crossing his cheeks, “--Go again?”

    OR: Will finds himself unable to control his new powers when he gets aroused. Every time he gets "excited," strange things happen with the power. He tries to convince himself it's a coincidence, but when he finishes, and the power goes completely out, he begins to panic.
    His panic takes him straight to Mike's window, and Mike offers a helping hand. In a best friend way, of course.
