    Summary

    What Mike did in the 18 months between S4 and S5. The answer includes: touching, sleeping in the same bed, playing D&D but only the two of them, and Mike casually calling Will beautiful. Best friend shit. Will Byers is toast.

    Now expanded to include a very different (gay) Season 5.

    ---
    “I look for the vampire.”

    Mike’s face is turned towards him. Will was looking at the ceiling, but he shifts, just enough, his nose points at Mike’s nose. His lips in a line from Mike’s lips. His mouth is slightly open on the pillow. “Do I find him?” Will prompts.

    “Yeah,” Mike breathes. “He’s beautiful.”

    Summary

    It's the last summer for college after they spent their childhood quite literally saving the world. Nothing is really normal but it's close enough and the party are hunkered down in the Wheeler basement watching bad romance movies, a little bit buzzed on alcohol, discussing all their bad romance takes and choices.

    It takes exactly one movie before they realise that Will can't join in because he doesn't have any romance stories to tell.

    They decide right there that the end of summer is going to be spent helping their best friend become the very best he can be so that when he goes to college he can have as many romantic moments as he wants.

    From there it's fashion shows, flirt training, practice dates and realising that he's already in a romance story and has been since he got off that swingset.

    Hopefully this one has a happy ending.

    Summary

    "Did you not hear me? I said I was in love with you.” Will cringes at the repetition.

    “So? It’s two in the morning. I’m tired.”

    “In love. Like romantically.” Jesus Christ, why couldn’t he stop saying it?

    Mike rolls his eyes. “I know what it means, William. What I don’t know, is why that means I can’t go back to bed right now. We can talk in the morning if you want.”

    Will blinks.

    ---

    “Imagine?” Mike asks, raising an eyebrow. He leans closer, cocking his head. “You do a lot of imagining, Will?”

    Will briefly squints in confusion before going red, the color spilling across his cheekbones and down his neck. “Not like that!” He shrieks, but he’s still so, so red, and Mike almost desperately wants to know just how far down the color goes.

    ---

    or,
    In a fit of midnight panic, Will accidentally tells Mike he's in love with him. But Mike...doesn't even seem to care. Will goes a little insane about it (and so does Mike).
