Summary
Steve rolls his eyes. “It’s nothing. Minor run in with the law, that’s all.”
“What?” Dustin sputters.
“Nice,” Max says approvingly.
“What Steve meant to say,” Robin cuts in, “is that he thought it would be a good idea to block a police batton with his head.”

Summary
It starts with a Hellfire shirt. Mike doesn't know if it's cursed or blessed because wearing it always makes Will act strangely. Then, it's spiraling into a hope Mike didn't know he could have. Will has never been closer, but Mike still isn't sure he can have what he wants. Or can he?
-
“You’ll let me do your hair?”
Mike knows this is a bad idea. Knows he’ll be red the whole time and stutter and give himself away, but this is Will. Will with his hands in his hair, so close Mike can stare all he wants. Fantasize about what a kiss might be like. Hidden away in the safety of what should’ve been their bedroom. Maybe he can use today to convince Will it can be.
“Only if you make me look good.”
Will stands with a sweet smile. “Easiest job in the world then.” And then he disappears into the hallway before Mike can even start to stumble in front of him.
What?
What does that mean?

Summary
Mike’s entire body pulses with frustration. “Because I’m not Tammy Thompson!”
Will can’t breathe. “But–”
“I’m not Tammy Thompson.” Mike’s eyes blaze. “I’m goddamn Mike Wheeler, and I’ve been in love with you since you set my hair on fire in science class when we were ten.” His jaw clenches, and Will feels like someone let off a grenade next to his head. “I realised I was in love with you when you left me for Lenora, and realised you loved me when you made up that bullshit about El asking you to make me the painting.”
Will feels the blood leave his face, feels his entire world shifting in an instant. “Mike–”
“And then you stand there and tell everyone it’s this crush that amounts to the same as some girl who didn’t like Robin back?” Mike’s voice cracks. “I– how am I that to you?”
-------------------
Mike confronts Will after he comes out to the group, because he isn't goddamn Tammy Thompson. -

Summary
He was happy for Will. He was. He wanted Will to have someone. Someone who made him smile like that, even if it hurt to look at. Even if it made something ugly and sharp crawl around inside Mike’s chest.
Because this wasn’t about Mike.
This was about Will finally being honest. Being able to be himself.
And Mike was going to be okay with it.
He had to be.
💕💕💕💕
After Will comes out, Mike is completely, totally, absolutely fine about it.
Except for the part where he’s weirdly upset about Will having a crush on Lucas.
And the part where he can’t stop thinking about Will.
And the part where everything finally clicks.
