All I Ever Wanted

Confessions

a/n: Welcome to the first real chapter of this story. It is as of right now the longest chapter with ~800 words. But now, have fun reading :)

Mike's POV

I woke up to a warm sunbeam shining into my face.

I was nervous because Will, Dustin, and Lucas were coming over in a few hours to play the new Dungeons & Dragons campaign that I have prepared over the last weeks.

I was really excited, but also very nervous because Will was staying the night. Lucas and Dustin couldn't stay over so it was only me and Will.

It was exciting to be alone with Will. But it was also kind of scary to have him sleep so close to me. We've had sleepovers before, but in the last weeks, I've been more and more shy and nervous around Will.

I went to my dresser and picked out some nice clothes. I wanted to look good for Will but didn't want to make the three suspicious.

As I walked down to the kitchen I was greeted by my mom and Nancy.

3rd Person POV

"Morning Sweetie!" Karen called happily.

"Morning mom, morning Nancy" Mike replied.

He sat down at the table and ate something, before going into the basement to prepare everything for the boys.

And Right After he finished the doorbell rang. Mike jumped up to the door and opened it.

Lucas was the first to arrive since he lived the closest to Mike. A few minutes later the doorbell rang again. It was Dustin and Will. Mike led them into the basement to start playing.

It was pretty late and the sun was already setting as Lucas and Dustin left.

As the door closed Mike felt extremely nervous. He wasn't alone with will since his feelings started going 'crazy'.

They both walked up to Mike's room, where he had prepared a sleeping bag for Will.

Another two hours went by as they were playing Mike's new Atari. They were both very tired and exhausted by now so they decided to go to bed.

Will took his pajama out of his bag and went into the bathroom to change, while Mike was changing in his room.

Will's POV

I finished changing into my pajamas and walked out of the Wheeler's bathroom. I was super nervous because I was alone with Mike... ...And maybe the fact that I was actually planning on telling him how I feel tonight.

I hope he doesn't hate me after this, but I can't keep it any longer. Maybe he does accept me, and maybe, just maybe he even likes me back.

Mike was sitting on the side of his bed, looking down in deep thought.

He quickly looked at me as I shut the door and walked towards him. "Are you okay?" I ask him concerned. "Yeah, I'm fine!" He replied with a shy smile. He was so cute when he was like this.

"Let's go to bed, shall we?" Mike asked. "Sounds good" I answer tired.

3rd Person POV

Fifteen Minutes passed and neither of them was asleep. They were both too nervous and excited to sleep, even though they were really tired.

It was quiet... ...very quiet until Will broke the silence...

(the skip from past to present is intended...)

Mike's POV

"Mike?" Will whispers. "Yes?" I reply in a tired, whispery voice. "I...". Will pauses for a few seconds. "Can I tell you something?" he askes in a shaky voice. "Sure, what's bothering you?" I ask him softly.

"So... ...I wanted to tell you for a while now, but I... I was too scared that you would hate me and abandon me, and I know that you wouldn't do something like that but I just couldn't stop myself from thinking..." "Just tell me!" I cut Will off.

"I like boys." "And I like you, Mike. In a 'more than friends' kind of way. I know you like Eleven and that's okay, but... ...I- I just wanted... ...had to tell you."

"I can't believe it. Will Byers, the boy I love so much just told me he likes me back. I never thought that he would be the one to confess something like this."

Still in shock, I just realized that I haven't answered him yet.

"I like you too!" I answer him in a soft voice. I can feel myself blushing more than ever before.

"Really?" I hear his soft, lovely voice say in a shy, but also happy kind of way.

"Yes, Will" I answer him with a little laugh. "Do you want to come up?" I ask him quietly and he happily replies "Yes!".

He crawls up into my bed and gets under the blanket. He's not even an Inch away from me and I take this opportunity to wrap my arm around him.

I gently kiss his hair and hear a slight giggle come out of the boy in front of me. Then I rest my head on the pillow right behind his.

3rd Person POV

The two boys slowly drifted off into a peaceful sleep and dreamed and dreamed about each other.

Let's see what the next days will bring us...
