Byler one shots I found on AO3

Love, anonymous -byler (fluff) part 2

"I mean, aren't there plenty of girls who had their eye on you in California?" Dustin said, slightly mocking Will.

"Yeah- Oh. You're mocking me aren't you. Well for your information, there were plenty. And I turned all of them down." Will said, crossing his arms.

"Why would you turn them down?!" Dustin said, his laughter turning into a bit of a shock.

"Mm, not my type." Will said, eyes turning to Mike for a moment, but quickly looking back at the others.

"Oh- Oh! I have an idea, if we can find out who gave you this letter this time next week, you promise you'll go out with them. Just one date." Lucas said, challenging Will.

Will's eyes went wide. An expression of concern flooded his face, but it washed away moments later. Mike seemed to notice this, as he continued to watch in silence, a bit tense from the situation at hand.

"Fine. Just one date." Will said with a stern voice.

"Deal! Shake on it." Lucas said, offering his hand out to Will.

In front of Mike were two tall figures, shaking on a stupid bet about a stupid letter from a stupid girl.

"Alright, just don't go crazy or something trying to find this girl." Will said, making eye contact with Lucas.

"Yeah...whatever." Lucas responded, his attention falling onto a girl walking in the cafeteria.

"Wait- Can I help Lucas? I kinda want to see where this goes if we find the girl." Dustin said, giving a sad attempt at puppy eyes to Will.

"Fine..." Will sighed, as the two giggled and started whispering into each other's ears.

Mike continued eating his food, as Dustin and Lucas ran off to scheme whatever it is they want to do.

"So...Who do you think the letter is from?" Will said, turning his gaze to Mike.

Mike choked on his food, the sudden voice directed at him startling him.

"Oh- Erm...Probably that one girl in Science who stares at you a lot." Mike stuttered out, yet, he was the only one who stared at Will in Science.

"Wait, there's a girl who stares at me in Science? Who? We're all the way in the back Mike, I think I would've noticed." Will said, raising an eyebrow.

"Oh- Right, I mean that girl in- Spanish." Mike said, turning his head quickly away from Will.

"I..don't take Spanish, Mike." Will said, even more confusion showing on his face.

"I meant uh- GYM-! I GOTTA GO." Mike said, quickly shoving his food back into his lunchbox and getting up.

"Oh- Okay..." Will said, returning to his meal.

The day quickly went on after that, Lucas and Dustin were still plotting the entire day, but Will chose to ignore them. Soon enough, Mike met Will outside by the bikes, an awkward smile on his face.

"Hey! Still coming over? My mom bought some snacks for us if you're hungry." Will said, a huge smile on his face as he hopped onto his bike.

"Sure." Mike said, softly smiling back.

The two biked back in silence, a quick ride, but it lasted an eternity as long as they were alone. Mike dropped his bike down first, running up to the porch to beat Will. A childish tradition, but something he would never let go as long as they stayed friends, or died, for that matter.

"You always win, Mike. Can't ever let me win?" Will asked politely, laughing a bit.

"Nope! Gotta keep my winning streak going, what is it now...Everyday for 5 years?" Mike said, smiling largely.
