Summary
The point is, Mike is pretty much content with going to the grave with his secret.
Or, at least, he used to think so, because, truthfully, foolishly, selfishly—
Will is smiling, his face flushed a lovely red, as he leans the slightest bit into her, with that soft carelessness that speaks of intimacy. On his side, too close to him, Robin Buckley shares a long look with him until they start giggling again, leaning against each other.
Mike hadn't contemplated the possibility of Will getting a girlfriend.
Or, Mike is jealous of Robin.

Summary
It should be him kissing Will. Holding and doting on him. Mike can feel something ugly stirring in his chest. His nails dig crescent moons into his palms, and he comes to the terrifying realization that he won’t rest until it’s true.
Mike really, really doesn’t like Will’s new boyfriend.

Summary
Jon’s apartment smelt like overly rich coffee, maybe slightly overbrewed and tart, and a little bit like malignant mildew. Two things that shouldn’t have woven together to make Steve feel like he was at home, but he knew he would find himself missing the smell as soon as he got onto the plane home. It hopefully would linger in his nose as Jon clapped him on the back and sent him away at the end of his trip, and he would look at his face, the one he’d thrown his fist into with all the force he could handle when they were kids, and think about how much he would miss him. His apartment. The smell of his apartment.
The smell of him.

Steve finally visits Jon in his New York apartment.

Summary
The day after the phone call, Steve had felt a little weird about it, but he didn’t get any crazy phone calls from Nancy, so he assumed that if Jonathan is freaking out, he’s likely doing it silently, something manageable. Steve’s world didn’t end when he woke up in the morning, no screaming calls or broken friendships, so he carried on about his normal Saturday like nothing was different.
And really, nothing had changed.

Summary
At first, Mike was unsure how to approach him when he got like this. But they’ve been living together for months now, never further than five feet apart in their dorm beds, so Mike’s learned what works and what doesn’t.
It works when he wakes Will like this, with gentle hands and words, telling him he’s safe. It works when he climbs into Will’s warm bed, turning him on his side and curling up against his back, an arm over his waist and his cheek pressed against his shoulder. They lie together like that until Will’s hiccupping gasps soften into steady breaths, until Mike feels him go limp in his arms and he knows he’s fallen back asleep. It always works.
or: Will has nightmares and Mike is the only one who can console him. Not even Will's boyfriend can. Mike takes great pride in this fact.
