    Summary

    “Mike?” He doesn’t even mean to ask. “What are you doing?”

    There’s a long exhale behind him and then he hears a breath hitch.

    “It’s my problem and you told me to deal with it,” Mike breathes. “So, I’m dealing with it.” Will wishes so badly he had something to physically throw at him. But he doesn’t, so he remains frozen there with his eyes closed and his nails digging into the palms of his hands. “That’s what you said, isn’t it?”

    Mike seriously needs therapy, he thinks.

    “I’m going to kick your ass if your hand’s on your dick right now,” Will protests, although nothing about his tone is even the slightest bit threatening.

    “You’ll have to turn around to find out.”

     

    or

    Will and Mike are college roommates and Will slowly finds out Mike's been keeping a not-so-little secret from him that may, or may not, change their dynamic entirely.

    Summary

    Will Byers hadn't the words to use at twelve to explain just why the invasion of the Mind Flayer left shame hot across his cheeks. He didn't dare explore why his memories of Vecna's voice were the times he'd heard it praising him, a lilt of adoration twisted up in his possessive tone. He didn't think to tell his friends just why his body remembered Vecna's presence before his mind.
    For years, Will had managed to hide the sides of himself that were nauseated by affection and writhed under intimacy, but after one late night argument in the winter darkness of the Wheeler kitchen, Will finds himself wrapped up in Mike's plan to heal that part of him he'd once swore to never let anyone see.

    Still... Will can't help but wonder how many weeks of Mike touching him like a lover he can take before losing the few splinters of sanity he'd had left.

    TLDR;
    Will has severe intimacy issues due to the predatory nature of how Vecna used/treated him as a child, and Mike decides to fix that through touch-exposure-therapy (He's not the smartest boy, cut him some slack).

    Will bent over, adjusting his lamp so it illuminated the tattooed portion of skin. He looked at it for a moment before taking Mike gently by the wrist, startling him, and drew Mike’s arm closer to his face. Mike sat still, watching the other man examine the tattoo. He resisted the urge to jerk away when Will ran a finger lightly over the ink and clicked his tongue. Will moved his fingers from the tattoo to bare skin, pressing down on it, almost testing it. What was he looking for? Mike’s fingers twitched at the contact and he focused on watching the other man’s face.
