    Summary

    “It’s a good thing,” Will reassures, and his thumb swipes over Mike’s cheek. Mike thinks he might explode. “It means you’re nice to look at. Artists would love you.”
    Mike’s heart feels like it’s about to burst out of his chest. Will is still looking at him, and he swallows, throat dry. “Yeah?”
    Will’s own face reddens, like he’d just thought about what he said. “Yeah,” he answers, and Mike grins.

    Living in a shared apartment with Will is all Mike could ask for, except for the part where he keeps thinking about kissing Will in the middle of their kitchen.

    Summary

    “Mike?” He asked and felt ashamed for the thought that went through his mind.
    “Hmm?”
    “Could you–” How would he even ask the question out loud?
    “Could I do what?”
    Will took in a shaking breath, looked down to Mike’s lips and up to his eyes again. “Mike could you… could you maybe kiss me?” Then suddenly panic moved through him and he turned away. Why did I ask that? Oh god. He will push me away. “I– It wouldn’t mean anything.” He added quickly. “I just– You don’t have to do it. I’m sorry.”
    “Oh.” Was Mike’s only answer for a few ever longer stretching seconds. “I mean if you want to.”

    Defeated from a horrible date, Will is desperate to know what it feels like to be loved. In a hopeless moment he asks Mike to kiss him.

    Summary

    Mike and Will both have decent lives carved out for themselves. Will is thriving in New York except for one thing; none of his attempts at a relationship ever last longer than a few weeks. Will knows the constant phone calls and weekend visits from his best friend aren't helping, and decides to call Mike and tell him the truth; that he needs space from him so he can finally move on.

    Mike, who had no idea Will still harbored any feelings for him, gets on a train immediately and shows up in the city at Will's doorstep, ready to finally confess what he'd been holding back for years.

    or

    Mike's known all along, but didn't think Will felt the same after he said it'd only been a crush. They argue about it, then they fuck about it

    Summary

    Will bites his lip and nods, looking down at his shoes again so Richie won't see how hard he's holding back a giddy smile.

    Everybody in the party knows everything about him. Maybe it wouldn't be the worst thing to keep a secret from Mike for a little while. 

    It's kind of exciting. Sneaking in a boy Mike hates.

    Will shakes his head, trying to clear Mike from it for the night. Only when he looks back up at Richie, Richie has this conspiratorial smile on his face, like maybe Will isn't the only one eager to piss off Mike Wheeler. 

    OR: the concept of Richie Tozier being Will Byers' dirty little secret and Mike Wheeler being so jealous he can't breathe. Byler endgame.

    Or:

    Mike and Will start talking dirty to each other for fun. What they don't consider is that it would accidentally turn them on.
