“Where were you?” Mike asks, impatient. He feels emotions boiling inside him, festering and transforming into something foreign to him. “Uh, I was just hanging out.” Will’s eyes turn defiant before adding, “With Robin.” Of course, Mike knew this already. He seems to be incredibly aware of Will’s whereabouts as of lately. It’s been the whole reason for his internal turmoil. Yet, having it confirmed by Will himself somehow makes it so much worse. “Oh,” Mike lets out. “Why?” Will’s eyebrows scrunch up, head tilting. “Because I like her?”

Or:

Will has been hanging out with Robin, non-stop. Mike does not have a problem with it. Really, he doesn't.

Mike having a novel dedicated to Will and Will says, "This is amazing! Did you write this?" And Mike responds with, "Yeah, well... Carlton commissioned it. He basically told me what to write."

i actually don’t believe mike stays a repressed gay man for the rest of his life. just look at the yearning in his eyes… i give him one week post-canon, tops.

hi guys!!

chapter 1 of my byler fic is officially up! i’m already over halfway finished with the entire fic, which means i’ll be updating every 3-7 days. thank you so much for taking the time to read and support my work, it genuinely means the world to me.

Summary:

After years of distance, unsent letters, and business left unfinished, Mike and Will cross paths again as adults. College changed them, but some bonds never really disappear. Reconnecting means facing old hurt, old love, and the question they never stopped asking: what if it’s not too late?
