Will woke up and his attention immediately went to the white powder that was outside his window. It had snowed in the little town of Hawkins. And it was the weekend. This called for a snow day.
Will rushed out into the hallway. Grabbing the phone and dialing in the few numbers he knew of his heart. The first ringing 4 times as a girl's voice answered the phone.
"Who?" She sounded annoyed, but that was as usual.
"Erica! This is Will, is Lucas home"
"What are you nerds doing today? Gosh"
There was muffled shouting coming from the phone before a more familiar voice spoke.
"Hey Will!"
"Hey! Have you seen the weather!"
"Obviously! I'll call Dustin you call Mike"
"Deal! Meet at mine"
Will hung up the phone and dialed the number he learned first. Mike's. He learned Mike's number before even learning his own. That's how much time they spent together. The phone rang one...two...
"Hey! Who is this?" It was definitely Mike, yet he always answered the phone annoyed.
"Hey it's Will, snow day?"
"Of course! Where are we meeting?" Mike's voice was immediately softer.
It was something he had always done. His voice was clamer around Will. That's one reason Will had fallen for the boy. His dark curls and soft smile didn't fail to make Will happy. His tone softened around the smaller boy. The boy who had been afraid of his fathers loud voice.
"We're meeting at mine"
"Okay! I'll be there in a few minutes!"
Will hung up the phone as he turned to the kitchen. His mom was standing there, cooking something. Her head turned to her son and gave him a soft smile. It was bright. She was a bright person. Always wanting the best for her children.
"You already made plans?" She asked, flipping one pancake.
"Yeah!" Will said, stepping up to watch her cook.
Joyce shook her head jokingly.
"Well, you go wake up your brother or he's gonna miss breakfast"
To say that Will was excited was an understatement. He was practically jumping off the walls. He ran into his brother's room, jumping on his bed and shaking him awake. Repeating the same words over and over again as he yelled 'wake up'.
His brother sitting up in bed, his eyes fluttering.
"It's a snow day!" He yelled in his brother's face, definitely waking him up even more.
"Wait- actually?"
"Yeah! Come on, breakfast is ready soon!" Will said running back out into the kitchen.
He sat down at the table, his feet swinging as he sat on his spot at the table. He ate his pancakes almost too quickly as Jonathan had just started when he finished. He sprinted to his wardrobe. Taking out all of his snow stuff before putting them on. His doorbell rang as he heard a certain voice. His favorite voice. Mike.
He ran back out into the hallway and out to his front door. His clothes made noise as he did. Mike was also dressed in his snow day intire.
"Will!" He shouted.
"Mike!" Will laughed both of them running out into the snow.
"Don't get too cold!" Joyce said closing the door finally being able to eat in peace.
The two boys were playing around, throwing snowballs at each other. Mike's aim was terrible but a few managed to hit Will. And Will's aim wasn't great either. He would throw and run making them land off to the side.
Will sat on the ground making a snowball as he got tackled to the floor. His face hitting the cold snow as he turned in his friends grip
They're faces were so close. And Mike still has no idea what came over him that day. But he leaned down to the boy's touch. Their lips meet, causing both their stomachs to flip and turn. Their faces got hotter from the kiss they shared.
Mike was the one to pull away, his breathing hitched. Yet he didn't hate it. He loved it. He loved kissing this boy. And Will returned that feeling by leaning his head up and kissing the boy again. His eyes closed and cheeks flushed.
Their kiss was long. Yet it felt too short. They wanted it to last longer.
"You just stole my first kiss" Will laughed as he pulled away.
"Can I steal all your kisses?" Mike asked.
"How smooth, now get up we're building an igloo!" Dustin said from behind them.
They both sat up. A little embarrassed that they're friends had seen them like that. But they didn't seem to care as Dustin started shoving the ground they had laid on. The beginning of their igloo.
Time flew by as it started to get dark. The igloo had formed, big enough to fit two people. They just needed to fact check that two people could actually fit.
"Will and Mike, in you go!" Dustin coed.
Will and Mike both made it in successfully. The igloo holding up. They turned to look at each other, their eyes meeting as Mike pulled the smaller boy in for a kiss. It lasted only a few seconds before Lucas cut in, telling Mike that they had to get home.
"Love you!" Mike said before leaving the igloo.
"Love you too!" Will shouted after him, crawling out of their igloo and walking inside with a huge grin on his face
Is it only me who wished it snowed more where I live? No just me?
