They are subtly hinting at this idea that Will doesn‘t have to say things outright and spell it out in order for Mike to understand because Mike&Will can understand each other without words:

miwip wednesday ft a lil doodle hehe...

So here he is, still awake and blatantly staring. Watching the rhythmic rise and fall of Will’s chest—one of Mike’s shirts on him since none of his own clothes are in Hawkins anymore. 

Mike has spent a lot of time staring at Will in his life, and once it finally clicked why he liked doing it so much, he’d become hyperaware. Constantly catching himself, trying to look less when other people were around, to go unnoticed, to be subtle. To figure out what amount of staring was normal between friends—sometimes it feels like everybody else already knows things like that, and he just missed the memo. 

Will lets out a soft sigh as he shifts again. His head falls to the side, angled towards Mike, and the hand that had been resting on his stomach now lays by the side of his face. He’s got a better view of Will now for sure, and Mike wishes he didn’t feel like he was doing something he wasn’t supposed to. 

Because even in the low light, even with his eyes closed and his hair all messed up from twisting around in his sleep, Will is beautiful. 

His fingers twitch ever so slightly, a blink-and-you’d-miss-it sort of thing, but Mike’s gaze is drawn to the movement. He doesn’t understand anything anymore, he doesn’t understand Will anymore after the last few days. But god, he wants to. He wants so much. 

Most of all, at this moment at least, he wants to hold Will’s hand—like when they were little kids and that was something he was allowed to do. 

He thinks Will is cute 🥹

Mike Likes Cute Things

Dustin, Lucas, Steve, Max, and Robin all use the word “hot” to describe people that they’re attracted to in S3.

For Dustin, Lucas, and Steve, it’s in reference to Phoebe Cates, who Dustin compares Suzie to.

Dustin: “Think Phoebe Cates, only hotter.”

Lucas: “She’s a genius and she’s hotter than Phoebe Cates? No girl is that perfect!”

Steve: “No no. No way. Hotter than Phoebe Cates? No.”

It’s implied that they all view Phoebe Cates as the pinnacle of hotness - a common opinion at the time as a result of her role in Fast Times.

Similarly, Max uses the word hot to describe Ralph Macchio. Another actor that was popular at the time as a result of his looks.

Max: “Yeah he’s the Karate Kid. […] He’s so hot right?”

Finally, Robin uses the word hot in reference to girls when she tries to convince Keith to give Steve a job at Family Video. She bribes him by talking about all the ladies he’ll bring in.

Robin: “And these ladies… These ladies are hot. They’re so very hot.”

This is all to say that most teenagers are attracted to people that they consider “hot.”

When Mike finds out about Suzie though, he doesn’t ask Dustin if she’s hot. Mike asks…

“Is she cute?”

Mike is the only one to use this word. He’s the only one who is primarily concerned with cuteness rather than hotness, and his word choice is so telling. Unlike many teenagers, Mike is drawn to cute things still.

Things like the little teddy bear with the bow tie at the mall…

…and, ya know, his best friend, who happens to be strategically placed right behind him throughout the entire shot…

… in bright red shorts…

… as if he’s Mike’s version of a certain someone.
