Summary
That’s just how they were. Achilles and Patroclus. Bowie and Mick Jagger. Will and Mike. Companions. Partners.
That was, for the most part, anyways.
There were little moments here and there, where the air shifted, and their little game of telepathy faded out into blistering confusion. Their comfortable silence would swell into a thick, budding tension that Mike could feel from the top of his scalp to the tips of his toes. Sometimes it was the brushing of a hand, or an accidental kick of the feet underneath the lunch table, or lingering eye contact in moments shared alone. Silent conversations exchanged between quiet glances, questions floating through the air around them, energy thrumming between them, hot like a live-wire to the touch. It was almost like a game. Tether the edge close enough, and eventually one of them will snap.

Summary
“Everything's going to be fine, please don't freak out.” Nancy starts to say, which causes Will’s eyes to widen.
“That’s…not really reassuring, you know that right?”
Nancy huffs a laugh, “Yeah, it isn’t, sorry.” He hears shifting through the receiver, and he thinks maybe that's all she's planned to say.
“Mike’s in the hospital.”
Will sucks in an involuntary breath, letting the air back out, shaky. He nods repetitively, a little numb as he tries to process, before realizing Nancy can’t see him.
“Okay.” He aims for level but his voice cracks mid-way. He’s almost whispering, “Is- he okay?”
Mike's in the hospital, which kickstarts a drive to Boston and a worried Will as he thinks about Mike, the past, and love, all while conveniently held up by New York traffic.
