Summary
Will is trying to move on.
A night out at a midnight shadow cast performance of The Rocky Horror Picture Show seems like a good start: outrageous costumes, bizarre traditions, and a cute guy who might just be worth giving a chance. For the first time in a long while, Will is ready to step into the world—and maybe even into something new.
What he doesn’t expect is seeing the one person he can’t stop thinking about standing under the stage lights—in fishnets, a corset, and looking entirely too good.
Suddenly, moving on is the last thing on Will's mind.

Summary
His mind is a madhouse, twisting all over the place, circling around and around until it inevitably lands back on Will. He wants to fix this. It’s what he does. It’s what he’s supposed to be good at—helping his friends. But he doesn’t know how to fix anything this time. People are going to say what they’re going to say, and everything Mike can think of just seems like it’ll make things worse.
It’s not like Will can go back in the closet, at this point, not that he’d want to. And nothing Mike says or does will convince a hoard of homophobic teenagers that there’s nothing wrong with being gay. He can’t convince them that Will doesn’t have a crush on him because they just think he’s “oblivious”. Which is ridiculous. Mike would know if Will had a crush on him. And Will would never have a crush on him anyway. Will is headstrong but quiet, calm and assured. Sarcastic and funny and kind and wonderful.
There are a lot of things that Mike doesn’t know, but he knows this for certain: If Will were to fall in love, it wouldn’t be with an idiot like Mike.or: When rumors start spreading about Will Byers being in love with his best friend, Mike has to figure out a solution, preferably before prom.

Summary
“We're not getting back together.”
Will frowns, even though his traitorous heart does a happy dance at the thought. “Surely you can't have screwed up that bad.”
Mike shakes his head. “Will,” he says. “I broke it off."
Interesting.
Will is, without any doubt, fully awake now.
The story behind "To make out? To date".

Summary
“Come back here!” Mike pleads.
“I can’t,” Will replies weakly, and he’s sure his voice isn’t strong enough to travel. Mike inches closer, like those few centimeters would make the difference.
“I’m jumping in then!” And then he’s wringing the shoes off, hastily kicking them behind his back.
On the eve of the final battle, Will is drawn to the lake by an unknown force. He tries to cut everything short and free Hawkins on his own, but Mike just won’t let him go.

"Mike."
"Yeah?" Mike pulls back slightly and Will's eyes flicker down, watching as he sucks his bottom lip into his mouth.
He doesn't know what to say; he's not sure he even knows how to breathe.
"Strawberry," Mike says after a moment, his voice wavering.
"What?"
"The flavor… is it strawberry?"
or:
Mike and Will play the chapstick game, the line between friendship and something more blurring as they do whatever it takes to win.

Summary
“It’s not my fault you don’t like girls!”
Will’s breath catches in his throat. The summer rain thunders to the ground like glass shattering. His vision blurs slightly, as if looking at his best friend is the most difficult thing on earth.
After the fight in the garage, Will flees into the storm to tear down the remnants of his childhood at Castle Byers. But Mike follows him into the rain-not to fight, but to finally shatter the lie he's been living all summer.

Summary
He first consciously notices the itch while he is in the basement talking to Lucas over the radio. With a huff he rolls the sleeve up until he uncovers his forearm. The scar tissue starts just below his wrist and extends up to his elbow on the inside of his right forearm, a slightly darker patch of skin which is especially smooth to the touch. It has been there ever since Mike can remember and tonight it has taken a faint red hue accompanied by the itching sensation that has been bothering him for some time now.

“Get the fuck out of my apartment before I put my hands on you."
That does it, apparently, because Carlton's brows raise high on his forehead, and suddenly he's scrambling off the bed and grabbing his shirt from the floor at Will's feet.
"Look, sorry, I didn't know he was… like… spoken for or whatever." He says as he's shoving his arms through his t-shirt.
"I'm not spoken for!" Will yells, arms shooting upward before flopping to his sides.
"No worries, man. I'll take care of him." Mike says, ignoring Will completely.
Or: Mike Wheeler is jealous, what’s new?

"We're basically a cover band, but Mike’s actually been doing a bit of songwriting as well. And we want to debut his first song tonight for you guys before we go. So forgive him for slowing things down and getting sappy."
What is happening?
Mike wrote a song?
A slow song?
A sappy song?
Oh god. A wave of sickness stirs in his gut.
He's been writing songs for El… that's what this is.

Summary
"Are you guys dating?" Dustin blurts out. Mike and Will's heads snap to him, shared panicked expressions on their faces.
"Um, I—we, uh—"
"Why—why do you think that?" Will chokes out.
"Well, let's look at the evidence," Lucas holds up his hand and points to a finger when he says each Thing. "You kiss each other all the time, Will's been sitting on your lap every single time we hang out—"
"Wh—I—It's not every time." Mike argues weakly.
"We heard you call Will 'baby'," Will squeaks and avoids eye contact when Mike looks over at him. "And now you guys are going to sleep together. In the same bed. And you say it's normal."
"You gotta see it from our perspective, dude." Dustin adds once Lucas puts his hand down. Mike opens and closes his mouth a few times, looking like a fucking fish out of water. He kinda feels like one, too. Beside him, Will isn't much better. His face is fully red now, and he's just standing there, mouth open, like he'd just been busted for a crime.

Summary
“Comfy?” Mike asked after Will stopped moving.
“Mm.” Will replied.
Will felt Mike move slightly behind him. They still weren’t touching, but he could feel Mike’s breath brush against the back of his neck.
“Do you want me to hold you?”
“Yes, please,” Will whispered.
Slowly, so as not to startle him, Mike moved closer until his legs touched and then tangled with Will’s. The warmth pressing at Will’s back intensified before he felt the solid press of Mike’s chest make contact. One of Mike’s arms circled around Will’s waist and pulled him backwards slightly until he was firmly in Mike’s embrace.
“Thanks, Mike.”
“Don’t need to thank,” Mike said sleepily. “Just doing my job.”
Will chuckled. “Your job? And what is that?”
“Taking care of you,” Mike said, like it was obvious.After a day where everything seemed to go wrong, Will returns home exhausted, overwhelmed, and in desperate need of comfort. Thankfully, Mike has always known exactly how to take care of him — but as the night wears on, years of unspoken feelings finally come to light, proving that sometimes even the worst days can lead to something wonderful.

"Shut up," Lucas snaps, but his voice is tight, like he's distracted. "Mike, look. We have a... situation."
Mike follows their gazes and freezes. On the floor, in the exact spot where Will was sitting, is a small, fluffy brown bunny. It's sitting perfectly still, its ears twitching slightly, and it's looking up at Mike with big eyes.
For a second, his brain short-circuits. "Did... did someone bring a rabbit down here?"
"No," Dustin says slowly. "That's Will."
Mike blinks. "What."
Or: Will gets turned into a bunny, Mike can't handle how adorable he is.

“If I wouldn't like it. Don’t people say try it before you say you don’t like it?” Mike looks at him again; his eyebrows raised with a small grin on his face.
“Um… Yeah, I guess. Where is this coming from?” Will asks, turning his body to fully face Mike.
He shrugs.
“Just been thinking about it.”
“About kissing guys?” Will fires the question quickly, wanting to get to the bottom of this.
“No.”
Will tilts his head.
“Okay, then what were you thinking about?” Will laughs dryly, Mike pulling his lips into his mouth.
“Well… about trying it, but not like… guys.” Mikes face starts to flush.
“Okay, then what? A specific guy?” Will laughs, letting one leg stretch over the couch cushions, his other still held to his chest.
“You could say that.” Mike whispers, his eyes darting over Will’s face.
or
Mike becomes extremely affectionate with Will out of nowhere aka domestic Mike and Will.
