Secret to Him- Will Byers //Soulmate AU//
Requested by: none
Tagging: @stanbrak because I know he'd want me to.
(A/N) Short, sweet, and gay. Like our holy boi Will.
It was a common accurance, you passed out on his bed. On the days he isn't completing a campaign with at Mikeâs or even his own home, you gathered a bag and slept over.
It always made him happy. Seeing you walk up to his front door. He described it as happy. He knew it was something else. Something he'd never reveal to anyone else.
It would be a secret to him.
Joyce never told them to quiet down, neither did Jonathan. No matter how loud. They didn't want to disrupt the energy of a Will Byers they never got to see anywhere else. A smile of Will Byers that only (Y/N) would let them see. What went through his mind as you completely entranced him?
It was a secret to him.
It was a secret to him that while walking through the woods at night he caught you staring up at the stars, their light casting a silver and blue halo onto your skin. Breath clouding in the air, pink lips lightly turned up. That he thought you had been a true god all along. Magic forcing you perfect and flawless.
It was a secret to both of you that he walked up and stood beside you, nudging your finger with his own. Wrapping his hand around your cold one. His eyes staying trained on the stars, realizing that he couldn't find beauty in them anymore. You set the bar far above anything else.
Did that realization scare him?
No.
It was a secret to him why his heart sped up and his eyes closed as you tightened your grip.
It was a secret to both of you why his eyes opened. A dull warmth on his cheek spreading to everywhere else. Why when he turned his head he leaned forward and closed your lips in his.
His secret was beauty. Beauty that you took hold of. Nothing compared to you. Beauty that closed his throat when you smiled. Beauty that calmed him and sped up his heart at the same time when you hugged him closer to your body, rocking back and forth in dance that sung a song to both of you. The lyrics?
It was a secret.
A secret he was fine with hiding. Because your secrets were his and his secrets were yours.
It was a secret to him that the mark on his hip bone wasn't yours, and the mark on your arm wasn't his. Oh how he wishes it was.
Your eyes open. You smile. He would never trade you for someone else. No matter the marks of their skin.
He knew the time would come for you to choose. Would you choose the same?
It was a secret to him that he saw he end of his world. A girl with an eerily familiar pattern on her neck.
âWill?â
âYeah?â
âI met her Will. I met my soulmate.â
He waited in silence for the inevitable. Will didn't know a kiss could be so life changing.
You chose him.
âWhy would you...?â
It was a secret to you.
A secret you two shared.
Your love would always be a secret to him.
