    Summary

    It's 1992, and Mike and Will are juniors in college and living together in a tiny NYC apartment. Life is great. It's everything Mike could ever want: his best friend, an incredible city, and the world at his fingertips. The only problem? He's in love with said best friend and has no idea how he could ever tell him.

    Luckily for him, he's presented with an opportunity to get much closer to him every Friday night, as long as he promises not to get all weird after. How hard could that be?

    Or: Mike and Will become friends with benefits and the universe laughs because they're both ridiculously in love with each other.

    Summary

    "You mean," Karl pulls him closer, tries to breathe him in one final time before he slips through his fingers forever, "so much to me, you know that?"

    Sapnap's hold on him tightens. Karl allows himself to believe, for only a second, that he doesn't want to let go either. "I know."

    "No," Karl laughs, wet, and hopes the tear stains he's left on Sapnap's jacket dry before he notices them, "you really don't."

    Sapnap is getting married. It shouldn't matter as much as it does.

    Summary

    “D’you ever consider I did it on purpose? I am a bit of an attention-seeker, you know.” Perhaps Mike is drunker than Will initially thought.

    “What?”

    “How else could I get the chance to talk to you alone?” Will feels like the air was just knocked out of him. Of course Mike is joking, but there’s a hint of truth to the statement. He was looking for ways to get Will alone. Will isn’t sure whether this information excites him or terrifies him.

    “You’re nutty,” Will says, physically shaking the worries from his head.

    “Maybe so,” Mike says, “but it worked.”

    A collection of moments between cowboy Mike and saloon worker Will as they start to understand what they want in life. Story set in the Red Dead Redemption universe. Byler Big Bang 2024

    Summary

    “Will,” Mike starts.

    “No, seriously,” Will says. The hand that isn’t holding his beer raises between them, twitching downwards like he’s physically shoving any of Mike’s other questions back down where they came from. “It was a stupid thing to ask.”

    Mike shakes his head, then scoots forward, inching closer to Will. “It’s not,” he insists. “If it’s you asking, it’s not stupid, Will.”

    On New Year's Eve, 1996, Will asks Mike a question. He gets an answer and then some.

    Summary

    The terrible, awful thing about finally getting what he wanted — namely, Mike — is that now he wants more, the selfish creature that he is. When he was younger, he’d been able to convince himself that kissing Mike, just once, would be enough to last him a lifetime. Foolishly, he’d thought that he could relish that single kiss and live a peaceful life, one where Mike was still his friend and nothing changed but his feelings would dissipate.

    Instead, they grew; they’re still growing, Will fears, growing bigger and bigger each time Mike and him get together, because every sound Mike makes when Will kisses him makes Will want to find ten more little gasps and whines and groans, and each time Mike twists their fingers together and pants against his skin Will thinks about how much better it is than the time before.

    will and mike are - something, and will's not entirely sure what. whatever they are, he wants more, but he's not sure if he can have it.
