Summary
***
He’s sure that all of his friends would be more than happy to help him with his application. Maybe some of them still would, but, frankly, Will has no interest in seeing any of his childhood best friends completely naked.
Well, except for—
No. Absolutely not. He is not going to ask Mike to pose for him while completely nude. Although Mike has never expressed that he is uncomfortable with the fact that Will had a crush on him when they were younger, he doesn’t want to push it.
Will needs to add an anatomy section to his art portfolio for a transfer application, which consists of sketches of several different poses of the same, nude body. His original plan was to ask his roommate from college to pose for him, but when ditched last minute, Will has no idea what he's going to do. That, combined with the fact that his feelings for Mike haven't seemed to dwindle even after two years at college, he feels like he's going insane.
Then, when he walks into Mike's room one night and finds him sleeping completely naked, Will is sure that he's going insane.

Summary
“I didn’t know you were such a lightweight, Byers,” he teases. The cool morning air hits Will like a punch on their way to the dining hall, and Mike's demeanour is a direct contrast from last night.
“Shut up. At least I go out sometimes. You’re a complete house mouse.”
“Okay, for your kind fucking information, I went over to Charlie's place three days ago, remember?”
“Yeah, to study. It's like New York made you even nerdier.”
“Oh, shut up. I'm not the one who regularly discusses, like, Plath with my classics professor.”
“I- hey! Classics are cool!”
Mike grins. “Yeah, to a nerd.”
***
New York, 1990. Will and Mike enter a new life away from Hawkins as roommates. Under the tutelage of Professor Kevin Cozner and Officer Raymond Holt, they navigate the chaos of the city- and find themselves along the way.

Summary
Only when they had reached the gardens did the grip finally release. He rubbed his wrist as he looked up to find none other than Mike Wheeler looking at him in frustration and worry. Will could tell it was mainly in worry. His eyebrows were drawn tight, the line of his mouth firm, eyes glowing in the lantern’s gold light.
“Your Highness,” he said quietly, trying to steady his breathing, “what were you thinking?”
A tremor slipped into his voice. “You could have been hurt.”
In the golden kingdom of Istathia, princes are meant to marry for politics, not for love. But when Prince Will is forced into an alliance marriage to end a war, he finds himself torn between the duty he was born into, and the boy who took his heart the moment Will saw him.

Summary
“Love, your secret admirer…” Mike trails off as he finishes reading the letter clutched tightly in his hands.
“Woah, love?” Dustin comments, leaning over. “This person must have it bad for you, Mike.”
“Yeah,” Max snorts, “which is insane because who’s crazy enough to be in love with Mike?”
Mike moves to swat her on the shoulder, but Will beats him to it.
Mike Wheeler’s disdain for Valentine’s day is only intensified when the party is sent on a wild goose chase to find the identity of his unexpected secret admirer with just a week before the day.
On an unrelated note, Will’s acting extra friendly lately. If Mike didn’t know better, he’d think he’s been flirting with him.

Summary
“My wise one, are you trying to seduce me with your divine charms?” He leaned back, his calloused hand cupping William’s cheek, thumb brushing over the soft skin. The touch was tender, but Michael’s breath hitched into a whine when William leaned into it.
“Seduce you? Oh, my brave paladin, as if I need to try,” William teased, tilting his head with feigned innocence, even as his cheeks hollowed around Michael’s fingers, his tongue circling them in slow, torturous swirls. Michael was transfixed. With a loud, lewd pop, William looked him over, eyes lingering on the mouth-watering trail of hairs down his navel to the equally salivating bulge straining his trousers, then said, “Look at you. I have yet to let you kiss me, and you’re already powerless.” To add to his teasing, he raised both of his hands,shrugging, “Not a book of spells in sight.”

Summary
“You don’t even know what you do to me, do you?” Will responds, voice dropping in arousal and wonder.
“No, not really,” Mike fiddles with the buttons on Will’s shirt, ignoring the pulsing of Will’s cock against his hip, “But I’d like to know.”
Will all but growls, catching Mike’s jaw with his hand and holding him still so he can’t run away from Will’s lips again. Mike isn’t complaining, sighing into Will’s mouth when he catches his bottom lips between his teeth, tugging a little. It sends heat pooling through Mike’s stomach, and the thought that no one has ever been able to affect him this way echoed through Mike’s mind.

As he stared at the boy his eyes trailed from the rings delicately decorating his slim fingers, to the silver chains hanging around his neck, to the metal bar poking out from his right eyebrow. He had a large reddish almost heart shaped birthmark on the left side of his face.
That birthmark looks oddly familiar…
Finally, his eyes drifted to lock eyes with the chocolate brown ones gazing back at him.
oh shit how long have I been staring?

Summary
The sudden sound of the door opening made his head turn up, away from the paper. His hand stilled. It was his roommate. The guy was incredibly attractive. He was, and Will doesn't use this word lightly, hot. If Will was asked to draw his perfect type, this guy would probably be the exact thing to end up on the page.
His roommate seemed almost just as taken back.
"Oh--- hey, uhm. . ." He seemed like he wanted to say something else, but his mouth snapped shut.
Will blinked away his thoughts of this guy, and straightened his posture a bit. He let his leg fall down, turning his body toward the guy more comfortably. The door stayed open, his hand still on the knob.
"Hey-- uh, I'm Will,"
"Uh--- sorry, I'm Mike,"
OR
Will Byers is ecstatic to go to college, residing at UIC in Chicago. Though, an unwanted altercation forces him to change schools. This lands him at NYU, joining his family in New York. He worries about his roommate, crossing his fingers he isn't as bad as the last, but is left with Mike Wheeler. A guitar player with dark clothes, black hair, and is sort of a "Teenage Dirt bag", who just so happens to be the embodiment of Will's exact type. And vice versa.

“Well, how about this,” Will spoke, pulling his knees closer to his face till he could almost rest his chin on them. “Im not ‘cool.’” He offered, smirking slightly.

Summary
It’s Valentine’s Day.
Couples pass him, entwined in one another- hands clasped, bouquets and chocolate boxes held close, grins radiant and meant for no one but each other. One pair stands kissing beneath the orange glow of a lamppost. The sight stirs something conflicting in his stomach.
Will has never had a Valentine.
He remembers second grade: cutting paper they could barely afford, making a card for everyone in his class. On the front of each, he drew a flower by hand. Inside, a careful message, written in his best handwriting.
Lonnie was furious.
Livid, especially, over the single card Will received in return. From Mike. A boy.
He never made another Valentine’s card again. Until now.
———————
Or, it’s their first Valentine’s Day together. Mike is an absolute sap. Will is so in love. This is pure, unadulterated fluff.

Summary
Like a magnet, his eyes flicked back up to will.
Fuck it.
This is fine. He’s just people watching, right? He’s just noticing that Will looks like a really really nice person. A warm person, even. So what? He just wanted to watch him, that's all. So who even cares if Mike stares maybe a little too long at the bridge of his nose, or the crease at his mouth when he smiles.
Who cares???
OR:
Mike Wheeler is perfectly content with his mostly miserable but sometimes okay life. That is, until Will Byers moves into town.
Title inspired by "It’s Called a Heart" by Depeche Mode
