Summary
Those protective instincts kick in and Mike can’t help himself as a crazy, irrational idea takes root in his mind.
An idea that has absolutely nothing to do with seeing Will practically naked in a speedo two nights a week for an entire year. Nope. Definitely not.
“What if I joined the team with you?” Mike blurts, reddening.
Or:
Will and Mike join the Hawkins High swim team in their senior year, spend waaaay too much time together in teeny tiny speedos and one thing leads to another at the pool…
Setting: Post Vecna-defeat (except El lives because she deserves a better ending, just like our boys do), their final year of high school but I’m aging them up to 18 because the content is explicit. (I head canon that the total devastation of Hawkins resulted in their normal high school trajectory getting delayed because that makes more sense than what the Duffers did.)

Summary
There is no one Mike and Chance hate more than each other…
…Except Will’s new boyfriend, Carlton.
So, together they devise a plan to ruin his relationship with Will.
Chance is doing it because he wants Will back. Plain and simple. Chance never stopped loving Will, and it pains him to see him with a man that doesn't deserve him.
Mike is doing it purely out of spite, no other reason. Totally not his unresolved feelings for his childhood best friend, Will Byers. Pshhh. Absolutely not. Because Mike doesn't have feelings, that would be ridiculous! No no, see he's just petty and vindictive, and wants to see Carlton’s entire world burn around him while Mike stands there holding the matches! Breaking up him and Will just… happens to be a happy benefit of that!
They each have their own motivations for stealing Will from Carlton. They're doing the whole wide world a favor, really. But in order to do this, they have to put aside their differences and form a united front against Carlton… and through a series of hilarious hijinks and unfortunate events, slowly fall in love in the process.
You know what they say, the enemy of my enemy is my best friend.
