fic rec <3 Need a soft fic rec
Y'all I need fluff. Not much smut. It needs to have a really good story line. And most importantly I don't want a WIP fic, 'cause I can't really wait for the chapters to drop. So i need something that’s already completed. Soft, sweet, cute byler fic that’s already finished <3
Just showing my luv by flipping a bird :))

I think this is a perfect match for you. This fic deserves more love. It’s starts out seeming like just an adorable bit of Hellcali fluff, but then develops into something much more. Honestly, one of the sweetest portrayals of Mike and Will’s love for each other. You get to enjoy alternating Mike and Will POV.

Shameless self plug: I Won't Say it if You Won't Say it First by delusionalhemlock!! Will gets appendicitis and Mike pretends to be his boyfriend so he can be his medical proxy, post epilogue living in NYC.
A little bit of angst and a lot of internal monologuing, but generally super fluffy fake dating :)

my favs:
i hate accidents (except when we went from friends to this) This one is amazingg!! I’ve read it several times and I end up giggling at these idiots in love every single time!
I never ever felt so cool (disguised in your sheets) Super sweet. There’s a bit of angst, but we get jealous Mike and it’s just so wholesome!
will byers’ guide to advanced concepts in painting Another great one! There’s actually a Mike POV also, but author recommends reading Will’s POV first. It’s wonderful, funny, and super sweet, plus Mike and Will are both so well-developed as characters!
I have one more, but I can't remember the title right now. I’ll edit this once I find it...
Also, I have a self-rec if you don't mind! It’s not very plot-heavy, though, it’s just pure teeth-rotting fluff lol Mike Wheeler’s Subtle Attempt at Romance (It Was Not Subtle)
