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.

Summary
In his almost 17 years being alive, Will has learned many things. Very high on that list is that there’s a fine line between “best friend” and “something more.”
Michael Wheeler uses that line like a fucking jump rope.
“You… wish I had saved just you?”

“How’s school going?” Joyce asks.
“Good. It’s…going good,” Mike replies. She nods and sips her hot chocolate.
“Mrs. Byers.” She looks up at him and Mike feels his heart beat faster. “Why did you make three hot chocolates?”
She takes her time to answer. “I don’t know,” she replies after a while. “It felt like the right thing to do today.”
Today. Today’s weird, Mike thinks.
“It’s March 22nd today.”
“I know.”or

Summary
“Guys, Mike’s not like me, he just can’t name characters.” They both give him a pointed look, clearly not believing a word. “I’m serious, every character is a reference to someone we know.”
“Are they now?” Dustin raises an eyebrow at him.
“Yes!” Will is perhaps a bit exasperated, “Stephen and Jay are clearly Steve and Robin, and James is Hopper,” at the blank look they give him, he clarifies, “his first name is Jim.”
This somehow only makes Lucas seem more unimpressed, “okay, but you do see how that’s more suspicious right?”
“What? That Mike can’t come up with names?”
“No,” Lucas shakes his head and clasps Will in the shoulder, “that the first name Mike thought to cannibalize when coming up with a boyfriend for you was his own”.The party grows closer after Will moves in with the Wheelers, picking up D&D again. It all goes well until Mike introduces a new character, Sir. Gabriel Whepler, whose sole purpose seems to be flirting with Will.

Summary
Will and Mike are roommates in Hawkins lab during the end of the world. The end of the world is very cold, apparently, so Mike invites Will over to his bed to help them both warm up. There's some totally platonic cuddling, some totally non-revelatory sleep talking... and they're totally not in love with each other ;)
