His best friend’s voice was low, slight tremor of anxiety in it barely distinguishable. It was raspy, untrained, and his fingers stumbled slightly on the strumming pattern as he focused on the lyrics, and it was the most beautiful thing Will has ever heard. -

"Unlock it!" Will yells, louder than Mike has ever heard him speak. And Will has yelled at him before.

Will tries, to no avail. "Fuck!"
Mike looks down at the tile floor. God, he must've really fucked up if Will can't even stand being in a room with him for five seconds.
"I think they left," he pipes up, crossing his arms and resting them over his knees.

Summary
“I like this, Will,” Mike thinks aloud.
“What, the afternoon? I think I prefer evenings, personally.” Will gives a last ditch at brushing off the tension they’ve created, wonders if he ignores it that Mike may move on and they can both avoid the drama this will inevitably cause.
Mike leans over and nudges Will on the side of his ribs. “This. Being with you.”
Will sighs. “Yeah?”
“Being alone with you. More specifically,” He clarifies.
It’s 1800s Regency-Era England, and what began as Will’s earnest mission to support his sister soon spirals into a tangled web of unspoken feelings and societal pressures all because of one Lord Michael Wheeler.

“Stop doing that,” He mumbles, then, “What about bacon?”
“Stop what?” Mike whispers back, like a tease, breath fanning. He plants one deliberate kiss, just at Will’s jawline. “This?”
“Mike,” Will pulls in a gentle whine, to which he laughs back at, silent and more like a stuttered breath. “Stop. Bacon?”
“Yes,” He finally pulls back, sliding his hands from the counter, and to Will’s arms. He nods once, sighing. “Bacon is fine. I’ll wake the devil.”
