Summary
Mike is waiting for Will in the basement, a look of suspicious, nervous excitement on his face. He cleared the table and laid out upon it are two card games.
"Now, I know you’ll resist," Mike blurts out, stepping toward him. "But I think this will be good. For both of us! For when we... you know,” Mike trails off, “When we get partners.”
Will scoffs, stepping closer to inspect the titles.
Spill or Sip and Truth, Dare, or Strip.
Or: Mike suggests a spicy card game to help Will loosen up before college. It works a little too well, and suddenly they’re gambling with unresolved feelings, and clothes, that were meant to stay in place.

mike stupid no homo dl final boss
chapter 3 is that one car scene and damn it really starts escalating
“Has Will always been eating ice cream this way, all messy, all lips and tongue?” What else do you expect him to eat it with bro.

Summary
Mike dares Will to play a game of chicken with him.
Will, like most things, goes along with it.
---“Chicken,” he said finally.
Will blinked. “Chicken?” He frowned, trying to picture it. “Isn’t that the one where you get up on someone’s shoulders and try to knock the other person off?” The image flashed so suddenly and absurdly that a laugh almost escaped him. He caught it halfway, feeling stupid.
Mike shook his head quickly. His pale cheeks flushed, covering his freckles in a faint pink like he was embarrassed, or maybe warm. Will told himself it was probably just the basement lighting. Or the heat.
“No,” Mike said. “Like… the other game.” He rubbed his thumb against the edge of the blanket, not looking at Will now. “The one where you dare each other to do stuff. And you have to keep going until someone backs out.” He swallowed. “Chicken.”

Summary
A polaroid lies face down, stark white against the carpet. Will crouches, breath already unsteady, and turns it over. His breath caught in his throat as the image came into focus, sending a jolt straight through him. Mike's jeans strained visibly against the thick bulge at his crotch, the denim stretched taut over an unmistakable erection.
Dear Will,
If you wanted to see me with a boner, you could've asked instead of drawing it.
Love, MikeOR
Will accidentally gifts Mike an erotic drawing of him, Mike returns the favor by sending him polaroid evidence of what his boners really look like.

omg… idk if will has already came out in this but him and Holly’s innocent question is so silly
I’m actually so giddy about reading this you don’t understand I love that Mike is once again a very confusing character since we don’t see his POV, he’s impossible lmaoOH MY GODDDD I was actually geeking the entirety of chapter two will don’t have a heart attack please but also omg Mike you sly dog
stop chapter three somehow transitioned from them doing the gayest shit to them doing the saddest shit
wtf will I get you but that boy wants you BADDDDSo much more angst than I expected but it’s very good also i just find it funny how they’re going from hot and heavy to sad and doomy in a matter of like 500 words

Summary
“Just saying, if you’re taking another hit, you should share it with me,” Mike says, and Will slowly tilts his head, drinking in every word. “It just makes sense. Like, mathematically.”
Will’s reddened eyes narrow, bewildered. “Mathematically?”
“If there’s two hits left, we’d each only get one,” Mike explains. “But if we shotgunned, we’d both get two.” God, this is the best idea he’s had in ages. He should’ve stolen Will’s weed, like, months ago. “That’s like, bang for your buck. This is simple math, Will Byers. Keep up.”
In which it’s well past midnight in New York, Will can’t sleep, and Mike feels like they barely know each other anymore.
So, they get a little high. Mike is very normal about all of it.

Summary
For the past two years, Micheal Wheeler hasn't usually let himself feel things.
Obviously, he has feelings. He loves his friends, he likes El, he appreciates his family. But he’s been hiding that feeling for so long that he almost forgot it existed.
Almost.
-
Continues immediately after the events of season 5 episode 7. Basically the finale, but written by someone who actually cares about queer representation. Mike did NOT deserve that absolute assassination and I WILL be doing him right.
In other words, a fix-it fic based on my last byler theory on my YouTube channel (@i.dontknowhowtodance, the period is IMPORTANT), in which we get a Mike-central finale where byler is canon. I do want to clarify I only watched the finale once and I refuse to watch it again so I might get some plot points wrong but you guys don't care anyway because no one likes the finale.

Bookmarker's Notes
1: oh my god… this is truly an evil fic im in love. Will’s trauma, Mike’s mixed personality, the codependency, the angst, omg. I’m so scared for Will why tf did Mike do what he did
2: holy spice I’m honestly loving the dynamic and can imagine these scenes very clearly of them talking… also Mike how tf r u “not gay”
3: god this is so good. I love how well it attacks the death of El impacting their relationship, which I feel like is ignored a lot, it shouldn’t be because El was important to both of them. I also love the premise of this fic including a lot of sex, but it’s not the main focal point of the story, it’s just a part of it. It’s a part of the messy relationship of Mike and Will. That last part was so sad omg. I hope Mike can fucking get over himself
4: genuinely such a sweet ending. Loved that we got to see Will deal with his own self a bit and realize his relationship with Mike, but ultimately deciding it IS a relationship that can become real :3 def recommend

Summary
“Kiss me, it’s my birthday, huh? Happy birthday.” A guy approached Will from behind, his hands settling on his hips. He muttered a “thank you” before the guy pulled him into yet another kiss.
Mike couldn’t take it anymore; he pulled Will away—his hand tight on his wrist.
“What’s your problem, bro?”
“I don’t have one, bro”, he mocked, eyes narrowed at the man. He pulled Will away from the dance floor, ignoring the latter’s protests.
“What the fuck are you doing!” Will stopped letting himself get pulled away, making Mike stop in his tracks too. Mike turns around, and Will meets his fuming eyes.
“No, what the fuck are YOU doing?”
“I’m having fun!” He says as he tries to pull himself out of Mike’s grip. He fails as Mike’s hand tightens around him even more.
“Fun? Wow, fun is making out with literally everyone?” Mike said, scoffing. Will laughed back at him, cold and humourless. He nodded, “Yeah, maybe it is.”
or
It’s Will’s birthday, and Max gifts him a shirt that says “Kiss Me It’s My Birthday” and forces him wear it to a club. Now, everyone wants to get their hands on Will Byers. And Mike hates the idea.

“I bet your boyfriend's funny, huh?” he said, before he could stop himself. His eyes flicked back to the piece of jewellery on Will’s neck. “Nice necklace by the way.”
Will froze.
Mike wasn’t stupid. He knew it wasn’t just a necklace. It was a signal. A claim.
Six years after everything, Mike Wheeler has built a life of routine and avoidance, convincing himself that silence is the same as healing. Will Byers has done the opposite – he’s left, grown, and learned to love without apology.
When they meet again at Lucas and Max’s wedding, the truth Mike has spent years avoiding, finally demands to be faced – especially when he sees Will with someone else.
As he finds out, sometimes yearning doesn’t fade with time. It grows, until punches are thrown.

He shouldn't have let Max goad them into doing this. He should have shut the whole operation down the moment he saw her share a smirk with El when they were still out at the diner, innocently eating shitty waffles and soggy fries. He should have never agreed to let everyone come back here, he should have never let Robin and Steve pawn them off a twelve-pack of disgusting Sam Adams, and he should have never, ever let Dustin put his empty bottle in the middle of the circle they were sat in, comfortably buzzed and basking in normalcy.
But Mike had let them.
