    Summary

    “It looks good, Mike. I don’t know what else to say.” Will says as he starts washing his hands. Mike rests behind him slightly, his stomach pressed against Will’s back as he stares at his new look in the mirror. Will’s stomach does a somersault when Mike shifts him slightly, pulling on his belt loop to maneuver Will.
    “That’s all you have to say?” Mike challenges yet again, and Will lets his next sentence roll off his tongue without a second thought.
    “You look hot, okay? You happy now?”

    or: the one where will pierces mike's eyebrow.

    Summary

    “I’m just…thinking.”

    “Well, can you think out loud?” Will gripes, sounding tense and unhappy even as he settles back against Mike’s chest. “You’re making me nervous.”

    Mike laughs a little. “I’m not sure I should; I don’t want to freak you out.”

    “Mike,” and Will sounds supremely unimpressed, “I just took control of three Demos, two of which were miles away, and proceeded to snap their limbs and kill them with my mind. Not only that, I just told you that I did it by drawing strength, in large part, from being your friend. You’re worried about freaking me out? Really?”

    “Yeah, and I’m the guy who watched you do it and thought that it was the hottest thing I’d ever seen in my life, so what does that say about me?”

    There’s a long, shocked silence.

    “See, this is why I don’t think out loud,” Mike jokes weakly.

    --

    Mike falls a little bit more in love with Will because, at this point, who wouldn't? He just saved Mike's life, after all. Unfortunately, the others don't quite see it that way, and it's getting to Will a little bit. Mike intends to remedy that.

    Immediately following the ending of season 5 episode 4: Sorcerer

    Summary

    Mike’s love for Will was a weakness they couldn’t afford anymore.

    He was thinking this as they left his old room, descended the staircase, flashed their intention to leave through the kitchen light and received confirmation from Joyce and his mom. He was thinking this as they stepped back out into his garage, where he finally opened his mouth and said, “Am I too late?”

    Will, a few steps in front of him underneath the lone garage light, turned. “What?”

    ---

    Where Mike and Will get stuck in the Upside Down and somehow, that's not their biggest problem. Mike's timing, however...
