Summary
It was a new paintbrush set when Will showed a sliver of disappointment after his paintbrushes broke, a box of pens when his only pen ran out of tint, a dozen coffees, and a dozen night outs. It was a dizzying pattern, one that spent Will a couple sleepless nights. In his mind weren't his art assignments due next week, or an essay due in five hours, not even what he wanted to eat. In the corners of a hushed room that is his loud mind, stands a question waiting to be answered.
Will, as everyone knows, that whenever he opens his wallet—flies come rushing out. To put it in layman terms, he is broke. Really, really broke. Even with two jobs, money he seldom receives from his mom and older brother, he doesn’t have financial freedom. The typical broke, art major.
But, at least his childhood best friend with unbelievably full pockets is always there for him.

Summary
Will’s breath hitched and he resumed his movements in Mike’s hair, unable to resist him,
“You’re drunk.”
Mike chased Will’s hands, his mouth parting, closing his eyes like he was savoring the touch,
“Not that drunk.”Bookmarked by d_ease

Summary
“We’re dating,” Mike says, and it takes every ounce of composure Will has not to choke on his next lungful of crisp, spring air.
The girl guarding the door to the party glances at their clasped hands, then back at Mike. “You’re…”
“Yup,” Mike cuts her off flatly, as if daring her to say anything else.
“Mike…” Will says his name under his breath, but he still says it like a warning.
“We don’t like to be so public about it but, well.” Mike lifts their clasped hands, shaking them at the door girl like they’re one giant fist. “You drive a hard bargain.”
Will raises his voice. “Michael.”
Mike turns to roll his eyes at him. “William, baby,” he scoffs, squeezing Will’s hand in his. “It's Valentine’s Day. Don’t be such a buzzkill.”
