CW: A little homophobia :(

"Any plans for your birthday today Will?" Linda smiled as she began to clean up Will's arm from where his chemotherapy needle was just removed from. "You're eighteen now!" She exclaimed excitedly as she placed a cotton ball and plaster over his arm.

Will sighed softly, "No plans at all, I'm still waiting on people coming to visit me also." He told her as he drank from his water bottle. "My mom hasn't even been up yet."

Linda lifted her bag from the floor and pulled an envelope out, she handed it to Will and winked at him, "I had to pull a few strings but, happy birthday!"

Will took the envelope and opened it quickly, he pulled a letter out and began reading quickly. After a minute he gasped and looked at Linda, "You got them to let me go home for a day?!" He smiled excitedly as he stood up quickly.

Linda nodded and clapped her hands, "Yes! I told them all about your progress this past year and how well your remission is going, they decided it was time to let you visit home for a day after these past few months of being stuck here!"

Will hugged her tightly and sighed softly, "Thank you so much." He whispered as he pulled away from her, Linda looked behind Will and smiled.

"I think your first visitor of the day is here." She winked as she patted Will's shoulder and walked away quickly.

Will waved goodbye to her and turned around to be met with his boyfriend Mike who looking down at him with a big smile.

"Happy eighteenth birthday my love." He smiled softly as he kissed Will's cheek and took his hand into his.

Will leaned into Mike and took a deep breath, "I really love how you smell." He told Mike as he ran his thumb over Mike's hand.

Mike laughed and looked down at Will, "I forgot how much of a sniffer you are." He smiled as he kissed Will's forehead.

"So, how does it feel to have a boyfriend who's eighteen?" Will smirked as they approached the hospital room where Will had his clothes sitting on his bed for him to get changed in to.

"Hmm let me think, it kind of feels like you're only sixteen days older than me." Mike recalled as he flopped down on the bed and closed his eyes.

Will smiled as he pulled his pyjama shirt off and set it down before lifting his blue and yellow striped shirt. Mike opened his eyes and looked at Will, "I haven't seen this in a while." Mike teased as he watched his shirtless boyfriend pull his shirt on and glare at him.

"Don't be such a pervert Mike." Will said as he tried to hide his smile.

Mike threw his head back and laughed, "Says the one who's sixteen days older than me! You better hope the police don't arrest you for dating a minor." Mike joked as he watched Will drop his pyjama bottoms. It had been almost a year since Mike had seen Will expose himself like this. "Sexy underwear." Mike smiled.

Will looked down at them and rolled his eyes, "They were my last pair this morning, my mom still hasn't brought any clean clothes for me." He complained.

Mike stood up from the bed and stretched, "Well we can grab some before you come back here tonight okay?" He smiled as Will buttoned his jeans.
