    Summary

    Will Byers, a beautiful but innocent omega with a sweet vanilla scent and a soft hint of cinnamon, has been in love with his childhood best friend, Mike Wheeler, a goofy alpha who smells of pine and blueberries. Mike also harbors secret feelings for Will, but knowing that such feelings aren't well-received in their small town, he decides to bury them and say nothing about it.

    Or so it seemed until Mike's brothers, back in Hawkins, appear to be pursuing the young omega, practically begging for his attention. This slowly brings Mike's feelings to the surface.

    Summary

    He looks up at him, eyebrows drawn together. “Do you not love her?”

    Mike shrinks back. “What?”

    He hadn’t meant to say it. He wouldn’t have, if he’d stopped to think about it for half a second. But it’s too late to take it back, and he can’t breathe until he knows the answer, and he looks at him resolutely and says, “Do you only love her because of what I said?”

    Something darkens on Mike’s face, twisting it into a shape Will’s never seen. “Get out.”

    It’s not a no.

    or: Mike and Will share a room, and Mike finds out the truth about the painting.

    Summary

    Will finds himself wondering, sometimes, if his mark matches Mike’s. He thinks it must, really—he can’t imagine wanting to spend the rest of his life with anyone else. Mike’s cool and strong and brave and funny. His hair flops down over his forehead and his eyes bore into Will’s soul, always so steadily intense. He doesn’t cry when he scrapes his knee. Instead, he just gets back up.

    Will thinks that if Mike isn’t his soulmate, something is seriously wrong with the world.

    everything is the same, but will & mike are soulmates. so really, business as usual.

    Summary

    “I didn’t want to lie to you.” Will’s voice is quiet and breakable, so different from the defensive, factual tone it should be. He should be meaner. Harsher. Crueler. “I just – I didn’t think it’d matter.”

    It feels like Mike’s entire body trembles, shakes like it’s about to burst. “You didn’t think it’d matter if you lied to me?” He hisses, and his voice cracks, just the littlest bit. 

    Mike Wheeler tries his best to navigate his way through the end of the world, with lots of maybes and misplaced anger.

    Summary

    “So yeah, you could say I’m sexually frustrated,” Will concludes, a wry smile on his face as he finally finishes his rant. “Not to be too graphic, but all I want is a nice, good-looking man who can fuck me hard.” He tips his head towards Mike’s where they're both leaning against the wall, and shuts his eyes for a long moment. “It’s whatever, though. I’ll get ov-”
    “I could help you out,” Mike blurts out.
    “You- I- What did you say?” Will stammers. Mike squeezes his eyes shut for a long moment, breathes, and then opens them again and meets Will’s gaze determinedly.
    “I could help you,” Mike says, with somehow only the slightest tremble of uncertainty in his voice. "As in, we could have sex."

    or; Will is struggling. Guys who are nice, hot, AND good in bed are apparently non-existent at their university. Frustrated, he complains to Mike - who makes him an offer he can't refuse.
    Unfortunately, there's always an aftermath to hooking up with your best friend.
    Meanwhile, Mike has some realisations.
