Summary
“Are you offended that people think we’re dating?”
“No,” Mike says immediately. “Of course not,” because, again, he should be so lucky.
Will’s baffled expression does not change. “Then why would I be?”
“So– okay, fine, whatever. Should we, like, tell them to get their heads out of their asses and that we’re not– um– dating, or–”
“I think,” Will cuts in, “well. You know what would be funny?”
Honestly, Mike doesn't know what he thought being Will Byers' fake-boyfriend would entail, but he definitely didn't think it would involve this many ugly Christmas sweaters.

Summary
What really happened during the 18 months the Byers spent living with the Wheelers?
Mike Wheeler seems to have a knack for predicting almost everything. Except for the way he feels about living with his once-childhood-best-friend, Will Byers. Will Byers decided it was time to let his crush on Mike Wheeler die. That is, until the snowball began to turn into an avalanche. This is a story about the first few flakes, if you catch my drift (pun intended;)).
Will be posting updates weekly (ish)

Summary
Mike just had to survive one summer.
One summer of shared rooms.
Shared clothes.
Shared glances.
Shared touches that lasted one heartbeat too long.
How hard could it be?
Will was his best friend. His best friend. Nothing more. Nothing he should want more than that.
No matter what his gut whispered, no matter how his pulse stuttered every time Will smiled at him… that was who Will was. That was who Will had to be.
And nothing—nothing—could be allowed to change that.- Language:

Summary
-----
"Is a kiss a possible signal or...start of a...snowball?"
"A kiss isn't a signal nor a snowball." Will frowned immediately, confusion knitting his brows together, his mouth turning down at the corners.
"What is it then?" The question came out quiet, almost afraid of the answer, but needing it desperately anyway.
"An avalanche."
