Summary
Remus’s eyes are molten. They look like pools of melted amber in the September sunlight, glowing beneath long lashes as his eyes flutter open occasionally. His tawny curls are squished against the warm glass of the window, and his mouth hangs slightly open as he snores.
A deviated septum, he says.
Sirius just calls it adorable.

Summary
What Mike did in the 18 months between S4 and S5. The answer includes: touching, sleeping in the same bed, playing D&D but only the two of them, and Mike casually calling Will beautiful. Best friend shit. Will Byers is toast.
Now expanded to include a very different (gay) Season 5.
---
“I look for the vampire.”Mike’s face is turned towards him. Will was looking at the ceiling, but he shifts, just enough, his nose points at Mike’s nose. His lips in a line from Mike’s lips. His mouth is slightly open on the pillow. “Do I find him?” Will prompts.
“Yeah,” Mike breathes. “He’s beautiful.”

Summary
He remembers to answer when a tiny crease forms between Will’s eyebrows. “Nothing you should worry about.”
“I always worry about you,” intones Will lowly like it’s a secret that no one else here should be privy to. He threads his fingers through Mike’s freezing knuckles, squeezing lightly, and Mike’s stomach lurches.
Mike and Will attend Dustin’s birthday party.

Summary
“You said I was bad at managing my time between my girlfriend and my best friend but you’re basically doing the same thing.”
“Girlfriend?!” Will spits out, thoroughly shell-shocked.
“I don’t get it! You could’ve told me you had a crush on someone, I would’ve—and when did you ever talk to Robin? You move to California and all of a sudden you’ve got all these girls hanging off of you and you’re interested in older girls—“ Mike’s voice embarrassingly cracks. He decides to quit while he’s ahead before he delves into the forbidden.
In the wake of the apocalypse, Mike and Will find their way to each other.
