   Summary

   "If you guys don't have anything to talk about, what do you do on your dates?"

   Will shrugs, looking away sheepishly. "Like... make out, I guess."

   "Right." Mike's heart rate is reaching a dangerous level. "Of course."

   Will looks at him, with pretty hazel eyes, locking with Mike's dark ones. Then he breaks away, glances down, and if Mike were going crazy, he could've sworn that Will just looked at his lips. Mike couldn't help but also look at his lips, the mole above his mouth, and then his eyes outlined by thick brown lashes.

   "You're pretty," Mike blurts. Fuck.

   In which Mike Wheeler doesn't know why he hates Will's new boyfriend so much
