    Summary

    Mike took a sip of his own cocoa, eyes drifting to the window. “It’s really coming down, huh? Kinda nice.”

    Will looked at him instead of the snow.

    “Yeah,” he whispered. “It really is.”

    The living room glowed with soft Christmas lights, snow falling silently outside, Mike’s hand warm over Will’s toes. And for a moment, Will let himself imagine that this was how it would always be.

    💕💕💕💕

    With Henry gone and Hawkins finally safe, Will learns how to love winter again - and maybe how to love Mike Wheeler out loud.

    A soft, snowy Christmas Byler fic full of cocoa, sketching, gentle touches, healing, and two boys slowly realising they’ve always been each other’s home.

    Summary

    “What?”, Will huffs, shaking his head in disbelief. “You know blue does not only equate sadness, right? It is one of the blatantly obvious meanings, sure, but it can also imply tranquility, loyalty, trust, peace, and—"

    Shut up, shut up, shut up, the voice in his head screams by now, but one cannot interrupt Will in the middle of one of his art rants. Impossible. No chance. “And with the vastness of the sky or sea, blue is also often associated with distance, longing, yearning, and— stuff.”

    “Distance”, Mike echoes, and only then does Will truly understand what he has just admitted into the air freely, completely unprovoked and voluntarily. “Longing. Yearning.”

    Obviously, this is the exact moment Robert Smith decides to sing about the fact that it is Friday, and that he is very much in love.

    Five times Mike distracts Will from his art assignments with his stupidly flirtatious ways, and one time Will actually needs his help to complete a coursework.

    Summary

    “Why haven’t we kissed yet?”
    And – strike that, maybe Will is dead.
    “You,” Will says dumbly. “I – what?”
    “Us,” Mike specifies, like we could have meant anyone else, although the clarification is still appreciated, because Will’s brain feels a little useless, right now. “Kiss. You and me.”

    A summer afternoon in Mike's room and Will's mess of a brain.

    Summary

    "I'm glad I went," Mike murmurs near Will's ear.

    "Had fun?" Will asks playfully.

    "Oh, yeah," Mike stretches sarcastically.

    They stay like that for a little longer than necessary, then reluctantly separate, still looking at each other. Will can't hold the eye contact for long, and turns away, biting down a smirk.

    "Goodnight, then," he breathes out.

    "Yeah. Goodnight," Mike nods nervously and smiles. That same stupid dorky smile.

    OR

    The Party have one last fun summer together before moving away, everyone is alive and happy and in love and stupid.

    Summary

    Mike rotates himself to accommodate this, turning his head to the side while looking down at Will, thinking of a best way to kiss him, when Will says, “I told Jonathan about us.”

    Mike wants to be with Will on his own terms. But he is nothing, if not open to negotiation.
