Summary
It starts with a dare—harmless, stupid, easy to laugh off.
But when Will is dared to kiss Mike, the moment lingers longer than it should, leaving something unspoken between them.
Years of hidden feelings, and tortuous longing.
Suddenly, every glance feels heavier, every touch means more, and the line between friendship and something else starts to blur.This is the summer of '89 before they go to college :)

Summary
Freshman year. Mike, Will, and Lucas are ready for a clean slate. No more high school nerd status.
But back in their triple dorm room after their very first campus party, Mike can’t sleep. He never noticed the tiny noises Will makes in his sleep. So, he steps closer. Just looking.
He does it once. Then twice. Then every single night.
Until Lucas catches him, and Mike panics.
It doesn’t help that the thriller Mike is writing feels less like fiction every night.
But is it still "just looking" if you jerk off watching your best friend sleep?
———
(Yes, smut starts right in Chapter 1. No, Mike is not okay—he’s slightly obsessive, and borderline unhinged.)Bookmarked by toleratekit

Summary
There was something on both their minds, as it turned out. So when Will brought up the topic of the party and their family, Mike agreed completely with his fear.
They’re going to keep their relationship a secret so they can work things out themselves, and because they can’t afford for their relationship to get out. Not now, not while they’re only thirteen and living with their parents. No one will know, not until they’re older and can handle the problems that come with having a relationship like theirs.
No one is going to find out.
or;
Mike and Will start a relationship, its not like their friends are attentive enough to every pick up on it.
Or are they?

Summary
“Just saying, if you’re taking another hit, you should share it with me,” Mike says, and Will slowly tilts his head, drinking in every word. “It just makes sense. Like, mathematically.”
Will’s reddened eyes narrow, bewildered. “Mathematically?”
“If there’s two hits left, we’d each only get one,” Mike explains. “But if we shotgunned, we’d both get two.” God, this is the best idea he’s had in ages. He should’ve stolen Will’s weed, like, months ago. “That’s like, bang for your buck. This is simple math, Will Byers. Keep up.”
In which it’s well past midnight in New York, Will can’t sleep, and Mike feels like they barely know each other anymore.
So, they get a little high. Mike is very normal about all of it.

Summary
"Say it again, Mike. Say how we're just friends."
Mike's whole body shivered at the bite the brunet left on his earlobe. He'd never seen Will like this
—so confident, so blunt, so aggressive.
It was so fucking hot he couldn’t help but comply. "We're just friends.”
Will stopped kissing his neck and slowly got down on his knees. "And because we're just friends, you don't want me to suck your dick, right?" He teased.
Mike's eyes widened in shock. He opened his mouth to respond, but no words came out. All he could do is stare down, his heart pounding in his chest, his dick twitching in his pants at the suggestion. "Will..." He warned weakly, his hands trembling slightly.
"Are we just friends, Mike?" Byers repeated, looking up at him, his warm breath against the bulge of his pants.
Mike swallowed hard, his throat bobbing. He knew he should say no, that they're just friends and they’re drunk and he’s a jerk. A confused, really turned on jerk. But fuck, the sight of Will on his knees with those pretty eyes looking up at him... "We're not just friends.”Series
