    Summary

    Before he can really think about it, Mike blurts, “You’re excited to — to kiss boys in New York, then?”

    It takes Will a second. “What is wrong with you.”

    “What—” Mike’s mouth is moving faster than his brain— “what did I do?”

    “You’re being weird! Did you ask Dustin if he was looking forward to kissing MIT girls?”

    “No, but that’s — that’s different!”

    “Different how?”

    “I — I don’t know, ok! It just is.”

    When Will moves away to go to college in New York, Mike deals with it in the best ways he can: moping, reading, weekly letters to Will, and a sexuality crisis. Cue chaos.

    Summary

    Mike points between them again, eyes bright now with unmistakable fascination. “You’re literally the same person.”

    “Mike.”

    “That’s so—”

    “Creepy,” Will finishes.

    “Weird,” supplies the girl at the same time.

    Mike grins. “Awesome.”

    Summary

    His Mom smiles at him with a knowing look, and Jonathan has an arch to his brow like he wants to ask more – but before either can, there’s the sound of a thud.

    Will’s smile falls into his stomach. It wrenches with fear, with horror.

    All three look to the entrance of the lounge, the direction of the thud.

    “Shit,” says someone out of sight, just beyond the entrance, almost too soft to catch.

    Will’s blood runs cold, because he knows that voice, knows the specific lilt of it.

    “Mike?"

    Or, Will comes out on his own terms, to the two people who truly matter - and is overheard by the one other person who means the most. In wake of the revelation, they decide to split off and take the final battle with Vecna into their own hands, all while navigating the undeniable pull that grows between them.

    Summary

    Will’s body is heavy as Mike drags him out of the quarry.

    His lungs are burning and feel too small altogether, unable to hold any of the air he is trying to force into them. He can feel Will's hands slipping up his chest, the limp body sliding lower against his back. Mike hoists him up again, readjusting his grip. His nails dig into the other boys’ wrists a little tighter, breaking the soft and pale skin.

    They are getting closer to the shore, Mike figures. His thoughts are sluggish, coming slow and hard to grasp. He only knows that he must get them out, the need to tend to Will growing, more urgent and all encompassing, entire body thrumming Will Will Will with every step he takes towards the bank.

    The other boy is an increasingly grave weight on his back. Mike never wants to stop carrying it.

     


    or: mike and will on their final mission in the upside-down. will experiences the horrors and falls off the cliff; mike, naturally, jumps after him.
