Summary
“That’s not my favorite.”
“Oh.” Will blinks. “What is?”
Mike’s tongue darts out to wet his lower lip. “O negative.” Will feels a flush move across his entire body. His magic hums inside of him, excited. His fingers twitch against the carton. Maybe Will was wrong, maybe this is different than having a favorite kind of pizza. More personal. O negative sits differently in Will’s head than double black olives with extra cheese does. More intimate.
“Oh.” Will blinks again. And maybe O negative sits differently in Will’s head, because it also flows through his veins. He feels obligated to tell Mike. “I’m O negative.”
Mike’s pupils widen again. “I know.” His voice is low, gravelly.
Will’s breath hitches again. “You know?” He flinches when Mike’s fingers graze his, peeling the carton out of Will’s hand.
Mike takes a deep breath. “I can smell it.”
Or, five times that Will offered Mike his blood and the one time that Mike accepted.

Summary
Mike barks a laugh. “I’m, unfortunately, requesting your companionship Thursday night to see Child’s Play 2 with Will and I.”
She sends him a look of bewilderment. “How did I get dragged into your date with Will?”
“Y’know, it’s really great that I can count on such discretion from you and Lucas. Super awesome that you don’t tell each other everything.” Max ignores him and he continues on. “Well, I tried my best, but he kind of looked at me all-dumbfounded and wasn’t saying anything, so I panicked.”
“Well, duh. He’s liked you since, like, birth. Did you even give him enough time to answer?”
“Of course I gave him enough time to answer.” Mike grits out, voice tight. “I know how to have a fucking conversation with someone, Maxine.”
Mike Wheeler can’t pick a major to save his life, is fighting for said life in the worst class ever (Astronomy 101), and is desperately trying to romance the best person in his life.
Enter: Will Byers, his advanced concepts in painting final project, and his pretty eyelashes.

Summary
"You’re everything to me, Will.”
And suddenly it all crashes over him. Years of feeling seen by him, of being close to him, of never being able to say it aloud. Will's anger falters, and his fists drop. “I...I can’t.” He whispers, voice cracking. “You’re supposed to be with her, Mike. You can’t-”
“I can’t help it,” he says, voice barely above a whisper. “I can’t help how I feel about you.”
Everything stops. Will's anger, frustration, and fear all collide into one unbearable, aching, quiet truth; Michael Wheeler loves William Byers, even when he shouldn’t, even when he’s supposed to be with Jane.
And the worst part? Will loves him back.
OR
After everything Hawkins and California has thrown at them, Will and Mike are back home, but nothing feels simple. Mike is always there for Will, quietly protective, a little dense, and more attached than anyone realizes. Will notices everything, but he’s learned to keep most of it to himself.
As the days pass, small gestures start to carry more weight than either of them admits. Meanwhile, Eleven(Jane) begins to notice the way Mike looks at Will, and her quiet observations may be the push that changes everything.
