    Summary

    Mel King was a creature of habit.

    There was a specific sort of choreography to her life beyond the chaos of the Emergency Department. A carefully controlled routine, a color-coded calendar, a rigid set of rituals that kept her grounded enough to keep showing up day after day, to keep on doing the work that was required of her to save lives.

    Everything was going fine for Mel. Her personal life was predictable, unexciting, and perfectly fulfilling, thank you very much.

    Enter Frank Langdon, agent of chaos.

    Summary

    And – that feels awfully revealing, so he adds, “I like the suit.”

    Mike brightens, and he’s just a step or two away, now, and Will could reach out and touch him. “I’m glad,” he says, “I was – I was hoping you would.”

    “Oh.” Will really wants to kiss him. “Well, I do.”

    Mike beams. “Good.”

    “Good,” Will echoes, feeling at a loss for what to say, but it doesn’t seem to matter when Mike’s grin only widens, and then his hands are on Will again, like they always seem to be, lately, and Will has no protests when they’re only a few inches away from each other.

    Mike has been acting strange, and, if Will didn't know any better, he'd almost think Mike was flirting with him.
    Thankfully, he knows better.
    Kind of.

    Summary

    Will doesn't know how he’s ended up in this situation, truly. He’s toying with the possibility that he actually tripped over and died when he got up to answer the door and this is some pre-death hallucination, because there’s no way that he’s really in a situation where Mike Wheeler is sitting on his bed and asking Will to kiss him.
    “You- you want me to what?” Will chokes out once he’s stopped coughing – because Mike had chosen to ask that particular question when Will was taking a sip of water, and he almost fucking drowned on it.
    “Kiss me,” Mike repeats, confirming that Will wasn’t hallucinating the first time. “For practice.”

    or;
    user kissingpractice finally writes kissing practice.

    Summary

    “I’m just…thinking.”

    “Well, can you think out loud?” Will gripes, sounding tense and unhappy even as he settles back against Mike’s chest. “You’re making me nervous.”

    Mike laughs a little. “I’m not sure I should; I don’t want to freak you out.”

    “Mike,” and Will sounds supremely unimpressed, “I just took control of three Demos, two of which were miles away, and proceeded to snap their limbs and kill them with my mind. Not only that, I just told you that I did it by drawing strength, in large part, from being your friend. You’re worried about freaking me out? Really?”

    “Yeah, and I’m the guy who watched you do it and thought that it was the hottest thing I’d ever seen in my life, so what does that say about me?”

    There’s a long, shocked silence.

    “See, this is why I don’t think out loud,” Mike jokes weakly.

    --

    Mike falls a little bit more in love with Will because, at this point, who wouldn't? He just saved Mike's life, after all. Unfortunately, the others don't quite see it that way, and it's getting to Will a little bit. Mike intends to remedy that.

    Immediately following the ending of season 5 episode 4: Sorcerer
