Summary
Try as he might, Richie can’t get it out of his head. The idea of carving his and someone else’s initials into the bridge is just…
Fuck.
Look. As much as Richie will talk a big game about all the girls he fucks (even though he’s still a virgin, just like the rest of the guys), and all the girls who suck his monster wang round the clock (even though he’s never so much as kissed a girl), he never actually has a particular girl in mind when he runs his mouth like that.
In fact, Richie’s not sure if he’s ever — like-liked a girl. He’s never really felt that way about any of the girls he’s known, not even when he noticed something about them that he liked, that made his heart skip a beat, like when a girl’s eyes were just the right shade of warm brown, or when they scowled and blushed at some dirty joke he’d made in their vicinity.
It’s just… it seems nice, is all, to have someone you love so strongly that you’d declare your love for them so publicly, so loudly, for all the world to see.
(Or: After the summer of 1989, Richie comes to terms with not only being gay, but also being in love with his best friend. Predictably, it does not go well.)

Summary
The anniversary effect is very real; they’ve all felt it. Especially Will, as another shiver racks through him, stronger than the last. This time, Will takes a step closer to Mike and presses their shoulders together. Whether it’s for body heat or comfort, Mike doesn’t know, but he isn’t going to complain.
If he can’t protect Will from the horrible memories and sleepless nights, he can at least protect him from the autumn breeze. He quickly tugs off his leather jacket and holds it out for Will to take, who looks down at it in surprise.
“What?” he asks, glancing between it and Mike, like he doesn’t know what to do with it.
“You’re cold,” Mike states, no room for question. He knows that Will would lie about it if he could.
—
Mike and Will attempt to navigate Halloween together while struggling with the anniversary effect.

Summary
“I don’t hate you, Mike,” Jonathan said quietly, and the words sent revulsion threading through his veins. Mike let out a choked noise, trying to pull away, but the arms stayed locked around him, caging him in place even when his shaky hands came up and tried to push him away. His breaths were quick and tight and he couldn’t do this, couldn’t let Jonathan hold him like this, like he was something to be cherished.
___mike wheeler is certain that jonathan hates him now, years of past history be damned. and—he should hate him, right? because mike was an awful person, really, and everybody knew it.
except jonathan insists that he doesn't hate him. even when mike tells him his worst secret.Bookmarked by lemfish

Summary
Mike moves in his bed, and Will's eyes stay firmly on the ceiling. "I feel like we barely know each other anymore."
And Will can't argue with that, so he replies, "What do you want to know?"
There’s a long lapse of silence, and then –
“Can you come up here?”
In the wreckage, Mike and Will spend a series of nights together.
