Summary
“Look,” Lucas leaned forward, adjusting his backwards baseball cap with the smug confidence of a man holding a Royal Flush, “I know they seem all soft and romantic, but this is Mike Wheeler we’re talking about. The guy who will verbally dismantle you over a two-point difference on a DnD attack roll. The guy who, until last year, thought Will was too delicate to kill a spider. Mike is the Alpha Male.”
Max snorted, not even looking up from the notepad where she was meticulously calculating odds. “First of all, Lucas, ‘Alpha Male’ is a term you learned from a terrible 80s action movie. Second, you only assume that because Will is gay and Mike’s bi. Will might be quieter, but the way Mike looks at him when he’s being told ‘no’ on a shopping trip? That is pure, unadulterated sub energy. Mike’s an eager bottom.”
OR where the party made bets on who's top and who's bottom between Will and Mike.

Summary
Mike’s mouth is warm.
Warm, and a little chapped, and pressing against his with an uncertainty that makes something in Will’s chest ache. He should pull away. He knows this. He knows it in the same way he knows not to touch a hot stove, not to stare too long, not to let himself imagine impossible things. His body seems uninterested in logic, though, and he supposes he can’t blame himself, not really.
Mike shifts slightly, trying to figure out what to do with his limbs. His lips move against Will’s with more intention, and Will’s breath stutters out of him in a way that is deeply embarrassing and entirely involuntary.
Oh, his brain supplies unhelpfully.
It’s something he’s imagined countless times before, kissing Mike Wheeler. He imagines it so often, in fact, that he cannot even recall the first time he imagined it. It’s an ever-present fantasy, always lurking in the back of his mind.
And yet, despite his thorough experience in imagining this moment, he somehow never imagined it quite like this.
Or: Five times it doesn't mean anything, and one time it finally does.

Summary
Both of their bodies shake as they catch their breath. Will’s still hard, and his sweat is starting to dry uncomfortably on his skin, but all he can focus on is Mike.
It’s times like these he’s reminded how lucky he is to have Mike in this way. To see this side of him, this side that still feels too new and too intimate and too overwhelming all at once. Sometimes, he thinks he may be bitter. Resentful of his lot in life, being so painfully in love with someone who will so obviously never feel the same way. On his bad days, he even thinks he might resent Mike.
Like this, though, he knows that could never be true. Not really. Sure, it hurts, only ever having Mike halfway, knowing his body but never his soul. Yes, it’s going to kill him when Mike inevitably finds someone new and runs off into the sunset, leaving him in the dust again.
But it’s Mike. He'll take whatever he can get.
When he and Mike end up in bed together after graduation, they fall into something dangerously easy. Or, at least, it would be easy, if it weren't the most painful thing Will's ever done.
