Summary
“Okay,” Mike said slowly, trying to keep his voice calm, “we’ll figure it out step by step. No pressure. I’ll… I’ll help you practice control, see how far you can go without, you know, frying the house.”
Will peeked up at him, just enough to see the shy smile tugging at Mike’s lips. “I… I don’t even know if that’ll work,” he admitted, voice soft. “What if it doesn’t? What if it just keeps happening?”
Mike shook his head firmly. “It will work. And if it doesn't, we’ll find something else. We always do.”
Will’s lips quirked in the faintest hint of a smile. “You’re right. We always do.”
Mike leaned forward, careful not to crowd him, “First we need to try to find a way to turn the lights back on. Reverse what you did. Do you think you can–” He gestures towards Will’s crotch, a blush crossing his cheeks, “--Go again?”OR: Will finds himself unable to control his new powers when he gets aroused. Every time he gets "excited," strange things happen with the power. He tries to convince himself it's a coincidence, but when he finishes, and the power goes completely out, he begins to panic.
His panic takes him straight to Mike's window, and Mike offers a helping hand. In a best friend way, of course.- Language:

Will told himself he won’t call again tonight.
He’s already dialing.

Summary
He hadn't asked for a picture. That felt weird, for some reason, but now it was clearly a mistake. He should have asked, so he could have a heads up. That way he could have readjusted the image of Will in his head so he didn't feel like passing out at the sight of him.
Will had gotten hot.
Like, objectively speaking. Not in a romantic way. Mike wasn't gay. Not that there was anything wrong with that. Will was gay, he had told everyone about a year ago, but Mike wasn't. Still, he could recognize a person's general attractiveness level. He could still recognize that El was pretty even though they were no longer dating and he didn't have any feelings for her.
But Will was off the charts. And Mike was having a hard time processing this. Like what do you even say to your now hot best friend you haven't seen in 638 agonizing days, without sounding gay, but his newfound level of attraction is the only thing currently in your head?
...
The Hopper-Byers visit for Christmas, and the Party is determined to give El all the fun snowy winter experiences she never had. But Mike is having a *slight* crisis when he realizes how much his best friend has changed, and how much he can't stop thinking about it.

“How’s school going?” Joyce asks.
“Good. It’s…going good,” Mike replies. She nods and sips her hot chocolate.
“Mrs. Byers.” She looks up at him and Mike feels his heart beat faster. “Why did you make three hot chocolates?”
She takes her time to answer. “I don’t know,” she replies after a while. “It felt like the right thing to do today.”
Today. Today’s weird, Mike thinks.
“It’s March 22nd today.”
“I know.”or
