    Summary

    “Ha, you think you love me? Really?”
    Will smiled—well, he tried to with his cheeks all together. He grabbed one of Mike's hands from his face, pulled it back slightly, and locked their fingers together. He looked up at Mike earnestly, and their eyes connected.
    “No, I know I do. I love you, Mike Wheeler.”

    Mike goes to check on Will in the bathroom, but it turns into whispered confessions and sweet kisses where the world can't touch them for a brief moment.

    Summary

    Mike knows there's nothing in this world that can stop him from leaning towards Will; he orbits the existence of the newest Warlock. The only thing more disconcerting than Will's presence was his absence; Mike would go crazy if he didn't see Will's purple clothes walk through that door now.

    He would go crazy if he stayed away from Will Byers for another minute.

    Summary

    Physically separated by college, the party keeps in touch with each other with weekly, carefully scheduled one-on-one phone calls.

    One Sunday, Will lets it slip to Mike that he's been having problems with a boy at his school. But unlike the problems Will’s used to– bullying, teasing, distressingly doodled-over newspaper cutouts of articles announcing his own un-death– the problem this time is that the guy likes him. And that he's the childhood best friend of Will’s college best friend. And that he’ll be at said college best friend’s birthday party this Saturday.

    Mike volunteers to drive up to Will’s school so he can attend the party and be Will’s meat shield for a night. Now Will has to deal with a very protective (and jealous?) Mike Wheeler, a deeply displeased prospective love interest, and a bed that is absolutely too small for him and Mike to fit into at the end of the night.
