    Summary

    “Wait,” Lucas takes another glance at Will, specifically at the sweater he’s wearing. “Is that Mike’s?”

    Here’s the other thing about the last eight or so months of Will Byers’ life: he’s been spending his nights, on and off, secretly, semi-occasionally, very frequently, kissing Mike Wheeler.

    He’s confused about it too, don’t even worry.

    Summary

    “He wanted to see me. He missed me. He was just kissing me better.”

    Then his Dad is crossing the threshold into Will’s room and his space and flinging him bodily back down on the bed. “Kissing a boy makes you a fag. Are you a fag, boy?”

    Will shakes his head, too frightened to speak. The walls are closing in on him again, and there are black spots in his vision. The comforter feels rough beneath his fingers, and he could swear the whole bed is shaking with him. He doesn’t know what a fag is, but he doesn’t want to be one if it makes his Dad angry.

    “You tell him never to fucking do that again. You push him away if he tries, you hear me? You fucking punch him.” And Will nods, anything to speed his Dad’s departure from his room.

    He can tell Mike not to kiss him; he can follow through with that. But if he ever tries again Will won’t be pushing him away. Whatever a fag is, it can’t compete with the feeling of Mike’s lips on his; like Will is kissing the universe.

    Will has loved Mike since he was ten tears old - but he's been in orbit around him a lot longer. By California, Will fears that orbit is decaying, and he's about to come crashing down to earth.

    Summary

    “Look,” Will says, turning fully on the pallet to face Mike, one hand reaching down for the rough wood to find purchase and ground him. “Do you-, do you want to show me. Like-, like want to practice?”

    Mike’s eyes widen but he doesn't say anything.

    “Sorry, stupid idea, just wanted to help.” Will is trying to gather the words back up from the air between them and into his mouth.

    “I never thought it was stupid.” Mike says, so quietly it's not much more than an exhale. “I suggested it first.” He adds, like it's a secret.

    Will grips the pallet harder. “Show me. I really do want to help.”

    Mike bites his lip a sec, and Will thinks he's going to say no, but then Mike's darting forward and pressing his lips firm and quick against Will’s. It's barely a kiss. Not romantic. Not enough to leave a scar. Will bleeds anyway.

    Or: Mike has been kissing Will on and off since they were seven. How are you supposed to recognise an avalanche when you are drowning in snowballs?

    Summary

    “Looks like I bit you.” Will tilts his head to get a better look. All Mike can do is stare at him. His fluffy hair at the front, clumped pieces at the back where he’d slid his fingers in a mere few minutes before. His pretty green eyes that look hazel or even brown in this light, the dark circles he gets when he drinks framing them like intricate paintings. A satisfied, bloody smile.

    Mike isn’t satisfied. He swallows thickly, choking down the words 'don’t you want more?'

    Or: Will dresses as a vampire for a college halloween party, but Mike thinks his costume isn’t bloody enough. Will lets him fix it. Mike goes into a crisis.
