Summary
Their shoulders brushed again, slow and equally savored. The kind of movement you couldn't pretend was an accident.
So Will brushed back, just barely. Testing. Flirting. Mike inhaled softly, the faintest noise escaping him. And then he spoke like he was physically unable to stay silent any longer.
“Will? If… if that boy you like…” he was standing so close that Will could feel the warmth of him against the cold air. “…If you ever wanted to tell him…”
Will felt his breath stop.
“…I think he’d want to know.”
OR: Yet another buzzy post vol 1 fic where Will grows more confident, Mike short-circuits over it, and they save the world together !!
**Can be read as a vol 2/3 fix-it fic post-finale

Summary
After they save the world, Will gets a boyfriend and a haircut. Mike loses his mind.
A bunch of random words and feelings flash through Mike’s brain but they won’t settle down to form a sentence. He just can’t fathom the idea of Will…with a boyfriend. Will’s boyfriend. A boyfriend who is Will’s. It won’t make sense no matter how he squints at it. “Dudes kissing or whatever is cool,” Mike says eventually. “It’s just… Will…”
Will picks up a pillow and throws it at Mike’s face. Mike catches it. “That’s not fair,” Will says. “Dustin has Suzie, and Lucas has Max.”
“But you’re Will,” says Mike. Doesn't everyone else feel this way, too? Dustin and Lucas are looking at him with twin expressions of horrified fascination, like Mike is some kind of slow-motion train wreck. “I mean– I mean, you’ve always been–”
My Will, Mike’s brain finishes. Shit, he’s not saying that out loud.
“The baby?” asks Will, glaring at him. “Shut up, Mike.”
“No,” Mike says again, miserable, but he can’t say I don’t want there to be some other guy you like more than me out loud where god and Dustin can hear him and never let him forget it as long as he lives.

Summary
Mike and Will get stuck in the wine cellar at the Lumax wedding.
.
“I don’t expect anything from you, Will. I just wanted you to know.”
When he turned his head, Will was already looking at him, contemplative. “Your fantasies are very elaborate,” he said with the flicker of a smile. Then, “Do you want to know mine?”
Mike felt like he’d had the wind knocked out of him. “Tell me," he said quickly. Too quickly judging from the way Will’s brow ticked up in amusement.

Summary
Mike confesses his love in subtle ways at the end of the world. It takes a minute for Will to catch up.
.
“I’m sorry I got mad,” Mike said carefully, “but you scared me back there.”
“I know,” Will said, stomach twisting. “I didn’t mean to.”
Mike went on as if he hadn’t spoken, distant, detached. “When we come out here, I know there’s a possibility someone is going to die. That’s just the way it is now, you know? I always tell myself it’s okay, that I can get over it.” He looked at Will then, his expression solemn, almost resolute. “I can get over it as long as it’s not you.”
Will’s breath caught.
