    Summary

    “Hopper doesn’t know I’m gay.”

    Jonathan squinted at him, mind prone to lag in the morning. “Why would Hopper not know? You told us as clearly as you could without using the word—”

    “He was already on the way to Radio Shack,” Will said in a rush. He gripped his bag tighter so his arms wouldn’t start to flail with panicky emphasis. “He wasn’t there when I came out.”

    Summary

    Will couldn't really understand how she could become so important to Mike in just a week.

    Of course, she had powers.

    Cool.

    That was… definitely something.

    But that was all Mike ever talked about.

    Even so, that seemed enough for her to become a recurring topic of conversation over and over and over again. Will noticed the way Mike’s hand would tremble, just slightly, every time he mentioned her. Will would avert his eyes before it could mean anything. Before he could make it mean anything.

    Before it had a name.

    Or: the events of Stranger Things through Will Byers’ eyes, exploring his trauma and complicated feelings towards Mike and Eleven.

    Summary

    “So, I’ve been thinking," Mike throws his head back into the sofa’s head rest. “You know how I talk about girls all the time?”

    The pencil in Will’s hand freezes for just a moment, something Mike wouldn’t have been able to tell at all if he wasn’t staring right at Will’s hands to avoid his gaze. “So?”

    “Well, I’ve been thinking, right?”

    Will looks up, but Mike isn’t looking back at him. He’s picking at a loose thread on the couch cushion. “What, about girls?”

    “No,” Mike shakes his head, “about boys."

    Will nearly chokes on his tongue. “You’ve been thinking about boys?”

    or, mike conducts an uncomfortably elaborate semester-long personal inquiry project on how to be a better straight ally to his gay best friend. for educational reasons only. obviously

    Summary

    It only took a moment before the physician smiled. “Well,” he said, with satisfaction. “That settles it. You are approximately nine weeks along, Your Highness.”

    Nine weeks.

    Without thinking, Will’s hand drifted down, resting against his lower abdomen. There was nothing there, not really. No visible change, no difference he could feel beneath his palm yet.

    .........

    or: As an Omega, Will knows what he was married for. It was merely to form a political alliance between their two kingdoms.
    So when he finds himself pregnant, and Mike suddenly begins to care in ways he never did before, the reason seems obvious. It’s not love, it’s only the heir.

    And then, when he loses the baby, Will is certain he will lose everything else too.

    Summary

    "And need I remind you— I have to be professional at work." He glares at Mike, who's barely paying attention and is instead fixated on the way the muscles in Will's arm pull taut. "Which informs the way I dress, and it also means you shouldn't be calling me when I'm teaching."

    "But you answered!" Mike fires back.

    "I thought it was an emergency!"

    "This is an emergency!"

    "Mike," Will pinches the bridge of his nose, "being horny out of your mind is not an emergency."

    Or: Art professor Will Byers has his work cut out for him when he comes home to his needy, younger boyfriend Mike Wheeler.
