Summary
"It's complicated," Mike says.
"Well, make it less complicated!"
Dustin throws his hands up. "Yeah, are you guys dating, or are you fighting? Because there's no way you're just friends anymore."
Will opens his mouth. His eyes are wide and a little scared, and Mike doesn't like it, but he looks back anyways.
His brain is doing the thing where it moves faster than he can follow it. Two options, Dustin said.
Will's mouth is still open. Mike thinks about fighting, and his brain slams shut. Nope. He thinks about everything Will said four days ago. If those are the only two options, Mike already knows which one he's picking.
"We're... dating," Mike says.
Or, Mike Wheeler decides that fake dating his best-friend-turned-hookup is a better option than losing him.

Letters to Will (Live from New York) by sofishortcake

Summary
“Thanks for taking care of me, Mike. I didn’t mean to drink this much.” Mike locks the dorm door behind him with a quiet click. “I could’ve had Carlton walk me back. If you wanted to stay at the party.”
Mike rolls his eyes, taking a deliberate step closer. “Yeah, I bet he would've loved that. And, please... stop saying his fucking name, okay?”
Will swallows. “Sorry, I just meant…I’m so happy you’re here, but I know you’re not just here to see me, and you probably want—”
Mike cuts him off without a second thought. He grabs Will’s arms, and shoves him lightly but firmly against the wall. Their chests collide. Will freezes—but Mike doesn’t back down. “Will…you have no idea what I want,” he whispers, eyes dropping to Will’s lips. Every shred of control he’s ever clung to around him melting.

Summary
“Be my fake boyfriend,” he said quickly, not giving Will time to react. “It makes sense. We’re childhood friends. Everyone loves friends to lovers. My mom especially. We already live together. We can say we fell in love while dorming.”
“Fine,” Will said quietly. “But you’re driving Saturday.”
Or, Spring break is creeping up and the Wheelers still haven’t accepted the fact Mike is gay.
Good thing Will Byers is his childhood friend, roommate, and the perfect fake lover! What’s the difference between pretending feelings are fake and pretending they don’t exist?
**On indefinite hiatus

Summary
Mike tries to push away, annoyed. He thought he was apologizing to him, not his shitty boyfriend.
“…don’t leave… please… I’ll explain myself…” Will grips tighter against Mike’s back. “I really tried to push away my feelings…. And you were wonderful… but…”
“But..?”
“I’m sorry Carlton… I still..” Will pauses.
“…Still what…? Will, you still what?” Mike waits for his answer.
“I still love Mike.”
Or
Will ‘accidentally’ drunk makes out with Mike and doesn’t remember the next morning. But Mike does. Vividly.
CURRENTLY ON HIATUS :(

Summary
“I'm so sorry,” Mike adds again.
“You didn't do it on purpose.”
“No, no, Will... I did it on purpose,” he murmurs. Even though it's dark, Will can tell he's looking right at him. “I wanted to do it.”
Will doesn't understand. It doesn't make sense. Carlton's words must have hurt him more than expected. They are very close, and neither of them seems willing to pull away from the other, even though they should.
“I don't understand.”
“I wanted to leave a mark on you,” says Mike, reaching out to touch that patch of skin. "I want... I want Carlton to see it and know it was me."
"Mike.”
"I want him to wonder why you let me do it,“ he adds, as if he can't help himself. "I want that for every time he touches you, he thinks about the fact that I can touch you too."Will is an art student, has a boyfriend, an ambiguous relationship with his roommate and childhood best friend, and a difficult past he has to come to terms with before finding his own truth.
