Summary
Mike plans a thoughtful surprise for Will's first art show, but everything goes wrong after they get into a big fight.
-----------------“Yeah it’s just nerves about the show and .. stuff.” Will pauses, taking a breath. “Just nervous.” He attempts a smile.
“Will, your art is amazing. Like jaw droppingly good. They chose you to be in the showcase, I’m sure everybody will love your work.” Mike rounds the corner of the counter to grab Will’s shoulder. “I always do.”
Will looks into his eyes for a moment, expression a bit puzzled, and then nods his head. He turns towards the cabinet and reaches up to grab a mug, his shirt riding up his back and revealing his back dimples. Mike gulps, eyes lingering a moment too long on a mole above his waistband. Get a grip Wheeler.
“Was there anything else bothering you?” Mike presses, his brain still lagging a bit behind.
Will sighs. “I don’t know. Carlton is just being weird about it and it’s stressing me out more.” Mike flinches at the name.

Summary
“So,” Dustin announced as he brought back drinks for the whole table and very pointedly tipped his head in the direction of Mike and Will, who were mid-heated discussion where they’d left them. “Is anybody going to tell me what happened there?”
Max rolled her eyes and said, “Will had a real ‘don’t meet your heroes’ moment,” at the same time as Lucas said, “Mike got his feelings hurt.”
Miscommunication kings Will and Mike have a falling out in the aftermath of their first kiss. Three years later, Jane & Dustin are getting married in the Florida Keys, and they want the whole party there. Sometimes it's easier to pretend to kiss and make up than to face your problems.

“Go to bed, Mike,” Will said flatly, his cheeks burning.
“Mmkay,” Mike mumbled, immediately reaching for Will’s blanket.
“In your room.”
Mike pouted, his brown eyes wide and doe-like. “Can I sleep in here? Pretty please? Just one night.”
“Why?” Will asked.
“'Cause your bed is comfy,” Mike slurred his words. “And…‘cause I missed you.”
OR: Mike ends up sleeping in Will’s bed every time he goes on a date.

Summary
“I panicked, Max. Like, full-body—couldn't breathe."
"Maybe you just need to find someone who can pay attention to you," Max tells him. "Someone who would notice if you were about to freak out, or something."
They're not talking about Mike, obviously, even though he'd be so good at that job.
OR
Mike overhears Will talking about a failed bondage attempt with his boyfriend. Mike becomes obsessed with the idea that he could do better.

Summary
This summer had been hard on Mike Wheeler.
As in... 'Hard'.
Apart from the cloying heat that seemed to permeate his lungs and stick to every inch of his skin, he had suddenly begun to notice things about his best friend that he wasn't sure were normal.
In fact he knew they weren't.
----------------------------
Set in the summer of 1989 after graduation, when Mike starts looking at Will with different eyes than before... and has a very 'hard' time concentrating on anything else.
