Summary
"Wait, why don’t we just practice together?"
Will's jaw slacks open. There's a bit of a pause—a small fleeting moment as he studies Mike, stunned.
"It could be like, a nightly thing."
"You want to... kiss each other goodnight?"
Oh.
"Well, when you put it like that, it sounds kinda-"
“Gay?” Will scoffs.
Or: It's summer of 1990—the hottest, most grueling on record. Luckily for Mike, he's invited to stay in Montauk with Will over break. But what starts as a moment of vulnerability turns to something more. Will wants to learn how to kiss, and Mike—eager to help his best friend—offers to be his test subject.
It was a spur-of-the-moment decision, okay? Plus, Mike wants to practice so he can know how to kiss the girl he totally met on their first night here.
She’s not fake. Not at all.

Summary
“Looks like I bit you.” Will tilts his head to get a better look. All Mike can do is stare at him. His fluffy hair at the front, clumped pieces at the back where he’d slid his fingers in a mere few minutes before. His pretty green eyes that look hazel or even brown in this light, the dark circles he gets when he drinks framing them like intricate paintings. A satisfied, bloody smile.
Mike isn’t satisfied. He swallows thickly, choking down the words 'don’t you want more?'
Or: Will dresses as a vampire for a college halloween party, but Mike thinks his costume isn’t bloody enough. Will lets him fix it. Mike goes into a crisis.
