    Summary

    Will and Mike accidentally overhear a couple talking dirty over the walkie, and start repeating some of the filthy phrases to each other for shits and giggles. What starts as a joke, soon turns into something they can't stop doing – and can’t tell anyone about.

    Or:

    Mike and Will start talking dirty to each other for fun. What they don't consider is that it would accidentally turn them on.

    Summary

    Was…was Mike’s heart reacting to Will?

    Mike isn’t looking at him. He’s staring hard at his cards as if he hasn’t seen them before, biting his inner cheek, and accentuating his dimple. As Will looks closer, he notices the pink shade spreading over the shell of Mike’s ear, the red emerging from the black curls like a rose sprouting from the earth.

    Was Mike still nervous around him? Hadn’t they resolved that?

    Will decides to test it. He leans onto the bed and rests a hand on Mike’s uninjured thigh, his thumb swiping side to side over the covers, and waits.

    Mike's leg twitches into his hand, and barely a moment passes before the beeps speed up again, a rapid climb from steady to sprinting, and when Will looks, the blush has spread to Mike’s cheeks, his eyes unmoving and glued to his cards.

    Oh. Will gapes at the monitor, the green spiking line. That's not discomfort.

    Oh. He can have some fun with this.

     

    Or: Mike, while protecting Will, gets attacked by a demogorgon. Guilt-ridden, Will stays with him in the hospital, forcing them to resolve the awkward air that has surrounded them for months, and, along the way, uncover some truths.

    Summary

    Will used to know how to create things. Now, at thirty-three, everything feels stuck.

    His studio hasn’t been touched in years. His body no longer follows the timelines it once promised. The life he spent a decade building ended in a way he still doesn’t quite know how to recover from.

    He tells himself he has time. It doesn’t feel true—but it’s easier than thinking the alternative.

    He doesn’t expect anything to change. He definitely doesn’t expect someone to walk into his life and change it.

    Especially not someone younger— someone who looks at him with something dangerously close to adoration.

    Summary

    It only took a moment before the physician smiled. “Well,” he said, with satisfaction. “That settles it. You are approximately nine weeks along, Your Highness.”

    Nine weeks.

    Without thinking, Will’s hand drifted down, resting against his lower abdomen. There was nothing there, not really. No visible change, no difference he could feel beneath his palm yet.

    .........

    or: As an Omega, Will knows what he was married for. It was merely to form a political alliance between their two kingdoms.
    So when he finds himself pregnant, and Mike suddenly begins to care in ways he never did before, the reason seems obvious. It’s not love, it’s only the heir.

    And then, when he loses the baby, Will is certain he will lose everything else too.

    Summary

    “He says it’s about protecting the kingdom,” Mike said, quieter now. “But who is he protecting it from? Fathers? Children? People trying to survive?”

    Will’s fingers tightened slightly against Mike’s shoulders, a silent reminder that he was there.

    “Fear makes people cruel,” Will said gently. “And sometimes… fear makes them believe they’re right, even when they're not.”

    Mike searched his face. “Do you believe that?”

    Will held his gaze. Careful. Measured.

    “I believe,” he said slowly, “that you would do it differently. You will do it differently.”

    💕💕💕💕

    In Hawkins, magic is treason.

    Will has spent his life hiding what he is, protecting the prince from the shadows, and pretending his heart doesn’t belong to him.

    Mike has spent his life trying not to become his father.

    When monsters rise, secrets unravel, and love refuses to stay hidden, the cost of the truth may be higher than either of them can survive.
