Summary
“I don’t-“ Mike begins, sounding very defensive even to his own ears. “There isn’t.” His eyes, the traitors, flick to Will for just a second, “anyone I like, I mean.” He can feel his ears starting to burn.
“There so is,” Lucas decides to join in, staring at him intently. Oh joy. Did he mention he hates his friends? Only Dustin and Will are nice.
“You’re right, look at his ears, they’re totally turning red!” Dustin all but shouts in excitement and – scratch that, only Will is nice. The nicest.
“So, who is it?” Lucas pushes.
“Is it someone we know?” El asks.
“It’s got to be,” Dustin reasons. “Who does Mike know that the rest of us don’t?”
Max gets an almost evil glint in her eyes. Whatever she’s about to say, Mike knows he is royally fucked.
“Is it…” Max hesitates, smiling at Mike like she knows and, knowing her, she probably does, so Mike opens his big stupid mouth, interrupting whatever she could have been about to say – is it Will – and blurts out, “it’s someone from my English class.” What the fuck? “You wouldn’t know him.”

Summary
“Soo,” Will begins, “was it an okay first day? Meeting everyone and stuff, I mean. Like, are you still okay with spending Christmas here?”
“If I’m okay with- are you kidding?! I’m totally looking forward to it!” Mike responds, almost exasperated. He’s sitting up now, facing Will.
“Yeah?” Will prompts, also sitting up.
“Definitely. Your family is like, the nicest people ever and I- well I’m, uh, I’m pretty happy to get to spend Christmas with you too so… there’s that.” Mike says, smile turning a bit shy. His voice goes soft as he says the last part and Will feels like there’s something there. It feels almost like a confession.
