    Summary

    Mike pushes into his hands, but Will keeps him still.

    "Ask again," he says. Because he's greedy, and he wants Mike to want him.

    He stares at Will's mouth. "Please."

    "Again."

    El is gone.

    Will tries to figure out how to move on in New York, and Mike follows him. Their apartment is haunted not by ghosts, but by the two of them.

    Or: Catastrophically traumatized boys cling to each other and accidentally figure out how to be close—too close—while moving through their grief.

    Summary

    The day that Mike Wheeler presented as a prime alpha was also the day that everything changed for him and Will.

    OR

    Will and Mike make a promise to each other to never abandon each other no matter who they present as and what happens. But when Mike presents as an alpha, he apparently does everything in his power to go against that promise.

    Everyone says it's for Will's protection. Mostly Mike.

    Summary

    This is what Mike’s been thinking about, in between worrying whether they’re all going to die, which definitely suggests that his priorities are a little out of whack, but he can’t help it. The past year has been bizarre, to put it lightly, but he thought that one of the better things to come out of it is that he and Will are friends again, like, real, close friends. He’s wondered, once or twice, in the midst of his own relationship’s crumbling status, whether Will has ever had any romantic entanglements, whether he plans to. Previously, Mike had ruled it out, because he thought if Will was interested in someone that he’d tell him about it, or at least not hide it. But Robin mentioned a date, and Will’s the only guy she’s been around lately except for Steve, who’s pretty obviously still hung up on Nancy (ew), so, like, what else is Mike supposed to think?

    Will has made a new friend. Mike feels normal about it, really.

    Summary

    It should be him kissing Will. Holding and doting on him. Mike can feel something ugly stirring in his chest. His nails dig crescent moons into his palms, and he comes to the terrifying realization that he won’t rest until it’s true.

    Mike really, really doesn’t like Will’s new boyfriend.

    Summary

    Will has had to watch Mike and Eleven for years, and as much as it kills him, he's learned to accept it.

    He's also accepted that for the time being, no one has really shown much interest in him. And he's fine with that.

    Until they pull off at a gas station and a random guy hits on Will.

    or

    The one where Mike finally gets jealous.
