Summary
“You do like it,” Mike teases. “I can tell.”
“Obviously,” Will huffs. “You know what I like.”
Mike does. What a surreal feeling it is, to be the one who knows what Will likes. What makes him blush, or shy away. What turns him on. To be the only one who knows these things.
“Yeah,” Mike says softly. “I know.”
or
Will becomes the patron saint of pretending to sleep with guys to help them come out of the closet. Mike isn’t exactly thrilled with the situation.

Summary
"Wait, why don’t we just practice together?"
Will's jaw slacks open. There's a bit of a pause—a small fleeting moment as he studies Mike, stunned.
"It could be, like, a nightly thing."
"You want to... kiss each other goodnight?"
Oh.
"Well, when you put it like that, it sounds kinda-"
“Gay?” Will scoffs.
Or: It's summer of 1990—the hottest, most grueling on record. Luckily for Mike, he's invited to stay in Montauk with Will over break. But what starts as a moment of vulnerability turns to something more. Will wants to learn how to kiss, and Mike—eager to help his best friend—offers to be his test subject.
It was a spur-of-the-moment decision, okay? Plus, Mike wants to practice so he can know how to kiss the girl he totally met on their first night here.
She’s not fake. Not at all.

or;
Will Byers is a phone sex operator, and Mike Wheeler is his favorite caller.
