Summary
Their shoulders brushed again, slow and equally savored. The kind of movement you couldn't pretend was an accident.
So Will brushed back, just barely. Testing. Flirting. Mike inhaled softly, the faintest noise escaping him. And then he spoke like he was physically unable to stay silent any longer.
“Will? If… if that boy you like…” he was standing so close that Will could feel the warmth of him against the cold air. “…If you ever wanted to tell him…”
Will felt his breath stop.
“…I think he’d want to know.”
OR: Yet another buzzy post vol 1 fic where Will grows more confident, Mike short-circuits over it, and they save the world together !!
**Can be read as a vol 2/3 fix-it fic post-finale

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.
