Summary
“You wrote to me.” It’s not a question.
“Yeah, I – er, I mean. No.” The letters on the bed glare up at him, shaking their head in their obviousness.
“Which is it?” Will asks, and he’s nervous. Is he nervous? Mike wonders suddenly, because if anything, the boy looks fucking cocksure right now, with that half-hidden sort of grin at the corner of his mouth. And Mike is not turned on by it at all. Obviously. Because he is terrified.
“I wrote them, I just er, I never sent them.”
“No shit,” Will laughs, openly this time, taking a step closer to the bed. Mike forgets how to breathe. He can smell the fucking rain now, mixed with the scent of Will’s skin, and his shampoo, and the same fucking laundry detergent Joyce has used since they were in kindergarden. And Mike knows, with absolute certainty, he’s about to pass out.

Bookmark Notes:
There’s a drawing of him at the movie theatre, back from that disastrous summer in ’85. The sketch shows Mike, eyes glancing down, and he fucking remembers this, and Will has scrawled in the corner ‘You looked like you wanted to kiss me, did you?’
And that’s when he looks up at Will, finally, dragging his eyes away from the outpouring of Will’s thoughts, and feelings, and daydreams. And Will is crying, and shaking. And it’s instinctive when Mike takes his face in his hands, wipes the tears from Will’s cheeks with his thumbs. And every touch was burning before, but not this. This is warming. This is like a pink sunset, or a hot bath, or the first sip of cocoa in December. And he’s giving into the clichés, like they’re part of him now. And he’s pulling Will closer.
“Yes, yes” He breathes, holding Will’s eyes with his own. “Yes I wanted to kiss you. I’ve always wanted to kiss you.” And this is it, the moment he’s been waiting for, like his entire fucking life.
Then Will steals it, and kisses him first.
