    Best Friend Duties by

    Fandoms: Stranger Things (TV 2016)

    Summary

    “Michael. Are you aware of how jealous you sound right now?”

    “I’m not jealous! I am concerned for my best friend’s safety.”

     

    Or
    Mike Wheeler is not jealous. He is simply deeply concerned that their neighbor is attempting to kidnap Will Byers using baked goods and borrowed spices. This is normal best-friend behavior. Totally.

    Summary

    “Thanks for taking care of me, Mike. I didn’t mean to drink this much.” Mike locks the dorm door behind him with a quiet click. “I could’ve had Carlton walk me back. If you wanted to stay at the party.”

    Mike rolls his eyes, taking a deliberate step closer. “Yeah, I bet he would've loved that. And, please... stop saying his fucking name, okay?”

    Will swallows. “Sorry, I just meant…I’m so happy you’re here, but I know you’re not just here to see me, and you probably want—”

    Mike cuts him off without a second thought. He grabs Will’s arms, and shoves him lightly but firmly against the wall. Their chests collide. Will freezes—but Mike doesn’t back down. “Will…you have no idea what I want,” he whispers, eyes dropping to Will’s lips. Every shred of control he’s ever clung to around him melting.

    Summary

    “So. Logical conclusion?” Dustin grinned down at him, pleased. “You’re in love with Mike and heartbroken that he and El made up. You’re welcome.”

    Will sighed. “Dustin, I already knew I was in love with Mike.”

     

    Will Byers is not avoiding his friends—he’s just busy.

    Busy avoiding Mike Wheeler, busy lying about homework, and busy trying (and failing) to get over the boy he’s been in love with for years.

    Unfortunately, Dustin Henderson has noticed. And he has a plan.

    Summary

    New City. New School. Same Old Heartbreak.

    Will Byers thought sharing a dorm with Mike Wheeler would be a dream come true. Instead, it’s a front-row seat to Mike’s awkward attempts at moving on from El. But when a messy night ends in a kiss that feels anything but accidental, the rules of their friendship are rewritten overnight.

    Will is happy to play the role of the secret lover, the placeholder, if it means keeping Mike in his life. He’s prepared for the breakup. He’s prepared for Mike to find a "real" girlfriend. He’s prepared for everything... except the possibility that Mike isn't pretending at all.

    Will does not realize he and Mike are dating.

    Summary

    Mike thinks it all started the day the Byers moved into their house.

    Having sold their house in Hawkins a year prior and moved to California, when they came back, and the town got put in lockdown, they didn’t have a place to go.

    Mike had kindly offered up their place during Nancy’s graduation dinner.
