Summary
“See!”
“Mich—”
“So how can this keep happening?” Michelle continues, throwing her hands up. “I know what I like. I tell them what I like. Somehow, they still manage to screw it up. I—”
“Maybe they get in their heads.”
Michelle narrows her eyes at her. “You know what’s crazy?”
“No, and I genuinely don’t want to,” Willow says, but god, she doesn’t want to guess either. Which would really be worse, though? Knowing or filling in the blanks?
It seems it’ll boil down to the latter, since Michelle doesn’t speak for a while. Instead, she worries her bottom lip, studying Willow. In that one long second, Willow almost convinces herself that Michelle will drop it, and that’s probably for the better.
Except she’s not that lucky.
“Well,” Michelle says slowly, “I genuinely think I'd do a better job.”
or
Willow has spent a decade learning how to put all her feelings and desires in a box. Then Michelle comes home from another terrible hookup, determined to prove she’d be better at getting girls off than any guy she’s ever slept with.
It’s hypothetical, until it isn’t.

Summary
SHOW ME.
Will looks up from the notepad, eyes wide and blown. “Show you?”
Mike nods, small but undeniably firm. Dead fucking serious.
“Mike, you—” Will takes a quick breath to try to recalibrate his false confidence. His voice drops, feathery and intentional. “You want me to show you what a guy’s mouth feels like?”
or
Mike takes a 7-day vow of silence to win a bet. Will does everything in his power to make him break it.

Summary
Both of their bodies shake as they catch their breath. Will’s still hard, and his sweat is starting to dry uncomfortably on his skin, but all he can focus on is Mike.
It’s times like these he’s reminded how lucky he is to have Mike in this way. To see this side of him, this side that still feels too new and too intimate and too overwhelming all at once. Sometimes, he thinks he might be bitter. Resentful of his lot in life, being so painfully in love with someone who will so obviously never feel the same way. On his bad days, he even thinks he might resent Mike.
Like this, though, he knows that could never be true. Not really. Sure, it hurts, only ever having Mike halfway, knowing his body but never his soul. Yes, it’s going to kill him when Mike inevitably finds someone new and runs off into the sunset, leaving him in the dust again.
But it’s Mike. He'll take whatever he can get.
When he and Mike end up in bed together after graduation, they fall into something dangerously easy. Or, at least, it would be easy, if it weren’t the most painful thing Will’s ever done.

Summary
“Huh,” Mike says.
Huh.
Kissing your friends. For practice.
He’s just never considered it before, is all. He didn't know something like that was allowed.
And yes, Max said it's a thing girls do sometimes, but maybe—
Maybe two friends who just also happen to be boys—
Two best friends—
It's the Party's final summer together before college, and Mike Wheeler is prepared for exactly nothing to change.
Throw in a nursing home nemesis, a grandmother's deified childhood pet, and an escalating series of 'practice' sexual encounters with a best friend who makes his head spin, and there's a very tiny chance he may be getting in over his head.
