    Summary

    “So, um,” Will stammers. “You’re saying I should get to know Patrick?”

    Mike’s expression shutters for a moment, before he seems to pick up on the fact that Will’s joking. “Oh, shut up,” he grumbles, rolling his eyes. “If you want to date an anime nerd, then by all means—”

    “Well,” Will says, heart still hammering in his chest. He tries for a smile, but he’s not sure he quite manages it. “No one else is offering.”

    mike and will are roommates. it’s a disaster, except for all the ways that it’s not.

    Summary

    “I don’t think that it has to mean that you’re into guys,” Lucas says. His words are accompanied by a casual shrug, and said in the tone of someone who has clearly already given this subject some thought. Will doesn’t know what to do with that information. Jump from a building, maybe. “I mean, we’d all get flustered if Spider-Man carried us in his arms.”

    Mike points to him enthusiastically. “Thank you, Lucas.”

    Dustin looks between the two of them, his eyes narrowed.

    “...Would we?”

    “Sure,” Mike concludes. “He’s attractive. That’s not a weird thing to think.”

    Will just barely resists the urge to bang his head against the table. He feels Dustin’s eyes glued to his burning face, and sinks even further down his chair.

    In which Mike tells Spider-Man that he has a crush on his best friend, and Will jumps to some very wrong conclusions.

    Summary

    “Are you offended that people think we’re dating?”

    “No,” Mike says immediately. “Of course not,” because, again, he should be so lucky.

    Will’s baffled expression does not change. “Then why would I be?”

    “So– okay, fine, whatever. Should we, like, tell them to get their heads out of their asses and that we’re not– um– dating, or–”

    “I think,” Will cuts in, “well. You know what would be funny?”

    Honestly, Mike doesn't know what he thought being Will Byers' fake-boyfriend would entail, but he definitely didn't think it would involve this many ugly Christmas sweaters.
