Summary
Point was, Mike Wheeler liked to be needed.
And Will Byers?
Well…
Will swallows, eyes focused pointedly on Mike’s long, slender fingers. The way they twist and they pull, fixing the broken strap to Will’s backpack.
Will Byers loved when Mike fixed things for him.
It was becoming a problem.
He didn’t mean to start doing it, but it just… happened. Maybe he was using Mike’s kindness against him, but it was difficult not to, and Will couldn’t feel too badly about it when Mike looked down at him with lidded eyes, one hand dragging up along Will’s side, voice sweet. “Better?”
“Yeah,” Will murmurs, grabbing the bag with trembling fingers. “Yeah, it’s better.”
Or, Will comes up with a plan that could benefit the both of them. Mike gets to be a hero in every day life, and Will? He gets to have Mike's attention.

Summary
Will flees from Hawkins before people find out he's an omega.
Will tries to flee from Hawkins before people find out he's an omega.
Will fails to because Mike comes too close, Mike smells too good, and Mike's a latent alpha and then he's not. Then, he's an alpha that Will's pheromones triggered to present and Will will never admit he's his alpha.
They'll never admit they're true mates, either.
They don't need to.

Summary
Chat doesn’t raise his eyes, claws digging into the steel below his hands.
“Would you let me kill someone, my lady?”
He’s met with silence.
Ladybug looks over at him, scanning his face in concern.
“You’re serious,” she says, eventually, voice hesitant.
Chat finally looks up from the city below to meet her eyes. He doesn’t need to reply to her to confirm her assumption.
Ladybug looks at him with so much concern he feels sick. He doesn’t deserve that kind of look from her.
“Your friend must mean a lot to you," Ladybug says, voice soft.
Chat sighs again as he lets his eyes drift in the direction of the bakery.
“She does."Or:
When Adrien realizes the high road is not the way to go, it somehow leads to Chat getting a little too close to Marinette. In their quest to dispose of Lila Rossi, unexpected friendships come to light.Bookmarked by starexploded

Summary
Chloé would be the first to admit that she’s not a nice person. If she were feeling particularly self-reflective, she might even be willing to admit that it makes her less than suitable to be a hero. She was no Rossi, though. She knew Rossi didn’t get along with Dupain-Cheng any more than Chloé herself did, but this latest plan was…unthinkable, and Chloé would never be able to live with herself if she didn’t intervene on her souffre-douleur’s behalf. That still didn’t make her a hero, though, not considering everything else she’d done.
Or at least she didn’t think so.

Summary
“Can we be closer?”
“How much closer?” His eyes, blue and dark and watching her so intently, make her feel too vulnerable. But she might start crawling up the walls if she can’t get a handle on this, and that makes her braver than she ever thought she would be. She shifts, rocking her hips forward, watching his response, the way his mouth parts with a sigh and his fingers tighten against her hips. “You want me inside you?”
She knows she’s blushing; she wilts against him. Her tits press into his chest and his breath is hot along her jaw when she leans in and drags her nose along his temple. “I’ll be so still, so good,” she whispers, a barely-there plea for him to anchor her somehow. “Like maybe,” she explains, “if you fill me up, I won’t have any room to think about anything else.”

Summary
“You must have it the worst,” Daegal added, eyeing him with newfound sympathy. “You’re with him all the time.”
Merlin made a small, noncommittal sound.
“I mean, the hours alone,” Daegal continued. “And the pressure. And the—everything. You’re basically on call 24/7, right?”
“Something like that,” Merlin’s shoulders shook slightly.

Summary
Arthur has never cared about being proper around Merlin because Merlin has never been one to treat him properly. Still, it's rare for Arthur to slip and use his alpha voice, knowing that, even to the beta he believes Merlin to be, it's an overt exertion of power. The few times Arthur has commanded his servant in such a way, he usually orders Merlin to "shut up" or "go away", and Merlin can play it off like he's following Arthur's orders too literally in retaliation, until he's able to find the one alpha that knows about him (thank the Gods for Lancelot!) and convince him to override Arthur's order with his own.
This time he doesn't get the chance.
[Merlin gets stuck in Arthur's chambers without his suppressants or his scent blockers. Things turn out much better than he expects...]
EDITED: 16/4/26 (mostly for tenses, grammer, etc. but the old draft is saved if anyone preferred it)

Summary
Annabeth let out a girlish laugh, head thrown back, half grateful that the majority of the attention had been shifted back to Jason who looked at Piper occasionally as he sang. She ignored the thousands of other cameras she knew were still pointed at them.
“Really Percy?” she asked, part amused, part delirious, “In the middle of your concert? In the middle of Madison Square Garden? Was really trying to find my number harder than whatever this was?”
He does look a little bashful then, head bowing slightly, and a pout forming around his lips. “Okay, I admit that this wasn’t one of my finer ideas but I had to.”

“Put your arm around my neck,” he said, and Annabeth frowned, confused, but did as he said, and a moment later, she was lifted in the air, one of his arms in the crook of her knees and the other behind her back.
“Percy!” she gasped, tightening her grip on him. “What are you doing?”
“I can tell that your shoes are making your feet hurt,” he shrugged. “I can carry you so why wouldn’t I?” Annabeth felt her skin heat up, and she leaned in to kiss his cheek, leaving behind a slight stain of her lip gloss. She didn’t think he’d mind.
OR
Annabeth deserves Princess treatment and Percy is going to give it to her.

“Wait,” Lucas takes another glance at Will, specifically at the sweater he’s wearing. “Is that Mike’s?”
Here’s the other thing about the last eight or so months of Will Byers’ life: he’s been spending his nights, on and off, secretly, semi-occasionally, very frequently, kissing Mike Wheeler.
He’s confused about it too, don’t even worry.

Summary
“... Will.”
“Okay, sure, yeah. What about him?”
“I’m a bad friend.” Mike admitted, breathing it out like a vomited confession, like something he was desperate to be rid of.
“Did something happen?” Steve asked.
“Yes.” He paused. “Well, no. It’s— it’s more like… more like… he got a boyfriend.” Mike huffed out a breath.
“I know.” Steve agreed slowly, brows raised. “Carlton. Will, Robin and I met up a while back and he introduced us. Seems like a good kid. What about him?”
Mike felt like a fucking idiot.
Of course Steve didn’t get it. Why would Steve get it?
“I… I just…” How was Mike even meant to begin to talk about this? “It’s driving me crazy, man. I hate the guy.”
OR -
Mike spirals about his feelings, gets in his car, and somehow ends up going to Steve Harrington for help. He gets a much-needed pep talk and finally goes after what he wants.

Summary
“We are more similar than you realize, Will. Both of us were...sensitive children. We were different. Seen as freaks. But we are special. You are special.”
Will takes a shallow breath, tries to swallow his nerves. He speaks flatly. “And?”
Henry blinks, seemingly surprised by Will’s coldness. “I chose you that day, you know.”
And Will sees himself, small and alone, riding his bike through the darkness. He sees the silhouette of something tall and not-human. He sees himself crashing his bike. Running home. But the creature unlocks the door. It follows him into the shed. It gets him.
“It was you,” Will whispers, a hand coming up to the back of his neck. The monster that took him. The possession. The visions. “It’s always been you.”
(or the one where will’s connection to the upside down is a crucial part of season 4 instead of him getting sidelined, and how it changes everything)

Summary
It’s fine. It’s totally fine. He’ll just go to sleep- and when he wakes up tomorrow, he’ll forget that this crisis had ever even happened. He closes his eyes, and tries to turn off his brain. It shouldn’t be too hard, probably. He’s heard Max make that joke enough times to suspect that there might be some truth in it. After all, Mike has spent this long being oblivious. Surely, he can manage one night more.
Not even an hour later, he finds himself climbing up Will’s bedroom window.
Mike has more realisations in one night than in two whole years. It's all Jonathan's fault.

Summary
“Do you want to go home?” He questions, leaning close and voice soft, and Will pauses, before nodding again. Mike lets out a breath, and lets his hand press against Will a little more firmly when he starts to sway in place again. “Okay, let’s go.”
Then he looks up and is met with smug faces, and Mike flushes when he realizes his own hypocrisy.
“I don’t talk like that,” Max recalls, voice high-pitched and overly girly and – Mike definitely doesn’t talk like that.
According to everyone in his life, Mike has a voice reserved just for Will. He tries to figure out what that says about him.

Summary
The first time it happens, Will classifies it as a little accident.
When he wakes, the morning sun is burning through the window onto their faces, and Mike’s cursing as he stands to close the curtains, stumbling all the way.
“Scoot over,” he grumbles, voice dry, and for a second Will can’t do anything other than sigh like a lovesick idiot. It’s a second too late for Mike, because he grumbles more words Will doesn’t catch under his breath and then physically pushes Will towards the wall to lay beside him, arm over Will’s middle. A second of silence passes, then Mike sighs, only to whine: “Fuck, my head hurts.”
Will can’t help it: he breaks down laughing, much to Mike’s offense.
---------------
Alternatively: five times Mike kissed Will, and one time Will kissed back.
