Summary
He couldn't bear it. The gleam in his eyes that night. The moon catching on his dark hair. He was so beautiful and intense and horribly mean at the same time.
"Will?" a small voice said from next to him.
Will felt the cold night creep up his back and turn into a hot flush, covering his face.
"Mike, shut the fuck up."

Summary
It’s the end of the world, sure, but Will Byers has more pressing matters: mainly, that his family is bunking with the Wheelers for the foreseeable future. The situation should theoretically be fun, but instead, each second Will spends around Mike draws him further into his own scrawled-out, screwed-up crush. And while Will thinks Mike can’t tell, the only Wheeler boy is finally starting to think about—or even think through—his own feelings.
Or: making out...while the world collapses
Excerpt:
Reaching his hands up, he rests a palm on my arm, fingers gripping my shoulder. Almost immediately, my anger dissipates with a sharp intake of breath. All I can focus on is his hand on my body, the way his eyes look down into mine. His smell, musk and pine and something else that I can’t quite put my finger on.
“Will.” His voice is velvet. It slips through me, over me, settling into my body with an achingly familiar comfort. He’s close enough that if I wanted to, I could twist my fingers into his jumper. Pull him towards me with the fabric and grab onto his wrist.
“Will, I can’t.” His voice cracks and his eyes look up, searching mine. “I can’t lose you again.”

Summary
This fanfiction is very dear to my heart. It is what I hope will happen and dream of happening. I want this to be true more than anything. Each chapter switches POV from Mike to Will, and then Will to Mike. I hope more than anything you stick with me on this and enjoy the writing and storytelling.
Blue and yellow forever
