Summary
The first thing Will notices when he wakes up is the throbbing headache that follows a night of too much drinking.
The second thing Will notices is the dull ache in his lower back. The sensation is not unfamiliar – Will has had sex plenty of times to recognize it.
Which leads to the third thing Will notices.
This is not his bed.
And the fourth thing?
The body lying next to him is very much not his boyfriend.
Will and Mike have a night out and accidentally cheat on their partners.

Summary
Will moves back to an upright position, wiping his hair out of his eyes, head and shoulders peeking above the water. “Mike,” he says, pulling Mike up with him, their fingers still intertwined.
“Yeah?” Mike says, tilting his head so the water trickles out of his ears, wincing slightly. “What is it?”
Will’s eyes dart back and forth between his, and then Mike feels his hand squeeze his own. “I don’t want you to, like, think I moved back for you,” he starts, which in and of itself would be enough to get Mike’s soul soaring straight out of his own body, if it weren’t for Will’s thumb pressed against his pulse point like some kind of mortal tether. “Because it’s not like that, I promise. But I think– I think I realized there’s a difference between things you want and things you need, you know?”
mike wheeler on losing people and having them again, the difference between wanting and needing, and finally letting go.

Summary
“You kissed me,” he repeats, pointing at Mike. “Did you fucking forget that? That you fucking initiated it?”
“Will—“
“You kissed me,” Will says again. His voice breaks. “You held me, and you kissed me, and you liked it.”
Mike stares at him, taking a breath that trembles.
“I know you liked it,” Will says softly, looking into Mike’s eyes. They’re shining.
