Summary
"It'll be like... what regular people do."
Mike chews his lip, squinting. "And what do regular people do again?"
Rolling his eyes, Will's expression turns wry, a blush turning tan skin into a sun-kissed, irresistible shade of pink. He leans forward into Mike's space, perhaps without even realising, his sudden giddy demeanour rendering Mike weak in his arms, spreading all the way to the tips of his fingers in waves.
"They casually date."
A second of silence. "Casually."
Will nods slowly. "Casually."
aka, will and mike, slightly codependent roommates and best friends, enter into a casual relationship after discovering they had crushes on each other when they were younger. to preserve their reformed friendship, will says they need to "take it slow", and comes up with both spoken and unspoken rules to abide by, which should be simple for mike to follow... right?
the only problem is that mike is sure it's only a matter of time before his runaway mouth confesses the true depth and length of his feelings. are rules bound to be broken, or is mike yet to understand why will made them in the first place?

Summary
"Will is alive and feels better because you exist, Mike."
✩✩
Eighteen months after Vecna is finally gone, Hawkins is supposed to be safe, but Will is still trapped in his own head. He has insomnia, and he ends up getting addicted to sleeping pills again just to get some rest.
Mike decides he is absolutely not losing his best friend, so he steps in to help Will.
Spending time together forces them to face the fact that they are completely in love with each other. Neither of them says it out loud yet, but they don't really have to—it's in everything they do as they fight the bad memories together.

Summary
“I think it could be fun. It would be pretty cool to, y’know, be around other people who are… Like me.” He’s avoiding Mike’s eyes as he finishes his sentence.
Mike nods. If only he knew he’s around people like him a lot more often than he realizes. “We can definitely do that.”
