  Summary

  Max let out a yelp when she felt a hand grab the back of her jacket and dragged her to the side of the school.

  “Mike? What the fuck are you doing?” Michael Wheeler, after, mind you, dragging her to the side of the school, stood in-front of Max, holding a skateboard of all things.

  Or: Mike confronts Max, they start hanging out and Mike confines in her.
  THEY ARE BEST FRIENDS, TRUST ME.

  Summary

  “Mike! I overheard Will talking to Jonathan! He said you-“ and, that’s when Nancy saw him. Arms soaked with blood, the floor’s perfectly clean, white tiles red. Her breath hitched. And she screamed. Screamed.

  Mike will never forgot that sound. From his sister. His sister who was always mad at him. His sister who came in here to yell at him. His sister who had seen Hell, who had been in Hell. Alone.

   

  Or: Mike and Will fight, Mike cuts himself, gets caught by Nancy, Will and Jonathan get roped in, and gayness ensured<3
