Summary
If Mike were to be questioned about what happened earlier, he would say that he didn’t mean for it to happen at all.
And, like, yeah, he’s not lying or anything. He really wasn’t planning on kissing his best friend straight on the mouth in a valiant attempt to shut him up, but saying that he didn’t mean for it to happen implies that it was a mistake, accidental, unthinking, even; and that’s–well–that’s not strictly true, either.

Summary
"I want you to tell me something you haven't told anyone before."
Will took a moment to process the words, but all he could come up with to say in response was, "What?"
"These confessionals always sucked because I knew no matter what I said, I was being judged," Mike explained. "There wasn't someone I trusted on the other side." There was a beat where, for a second, Will was sure he could hear Mike's heart beating. "But we trust each other." It wasn't a question. Will liked that. Liked that Mike still thought of him that way. "So maybe if we just lay it all out on the line, not having to even see the other... maybe we'll get back to how things were."
"But... we already know all of each other's secrets." Will was sure his tone gave away the obvious lie.
"Not anymore."
***
Will and Mike are tasked with scoping out Roane Cemetery Church for clues, and the awkwardness between them can't be ignored any longer. Unsure of where they stand, Will and Mike decide to each choose three things to share with each other that no one else knows. The last one could change everything.

Summary
Now, someone walked into the room. A boy, awkwardly standing at the side of his bed, looking over him worriedly. His hair was brown and scruffy, and he had big baby doe eyes and a yellow-and-blue horizontally-striped shirt like a cartoon character. The window was lighting him up like he was important to Mike’s narrative. The curtains are blue, thought Mike, this boy is light. I love metaphors. Maybe he was high on the pain meds. Upon seeing him, Mike felt a great affection, a great peace. Plus, he had long eyelashes. Mike almost giggled to himself. He was definitely a little high.
“Hi.” breathed Mike.
“Hi.” he said, hesitating.
“We’re friends?” Mike asked hopefully.
Or: During the Party's final battle with Vecna, Mike is gravely injured and loses his memories. He wakes up in a hospital only remembering a handful of inconsequential little things, like how much he loves a boy who seems like light.

Summary
“So I stopped fighting. I stopped being scared of the connection. And then I just… I thought about what I had to protect. My mom. Jonathan.” Another pause. Will's voice drops even lower. “You.”
Mike’s heart performed a slow, heavy roll in his chest. “…You thought about me?”
Will looked at him like he’d asked if water was wet. A faint, almost sad smile appeared. “Of course I did.”
What happens - and what Mike realizes - after Will's big moment.
