    Summary

    “Did I do something wrong?” Mike questions, mouth twisted in a frown, eyes less wide than they were a few moments ago, sleepiness gone. His arms stay at his sides, although his fingers fiddle with his sleeves. “What did I do wrong?”

    Will frowns back. “You didn’t do anything wrong.”

    Mike doesn’t look like he believes him. Will doesn’t blame him. “Then why do you keep leaving?”

    The world ends, and then some. Mike and Will find each other again, amidst the debris and distance.

    Summary

    “Hey, Adam, what’s twenty-four divided by six again?” Emma is sitting on the bed of their father’s new impossible job for Adam: an old, rusty pickup truck. Emma’s legs are crossed, math homework on her lap, hair is free from the ponytail she had wrangled it into that morning all by herself.

    “What times six is twenty-four?” Adam asks in return. Emma likes doing her homework in the garage while Adam does whatever new chores Robert Parrish cooks up. It’s the only place Adam can help her with it, and Emma might only be eight years old, but she knows better than to ask their parents for help on homework.

    Summary

    “I don’t like it when you call me that,” is what he ends up blurting out after an entire day of trying to plan the perfect way to approach the topic. But then Benzo had palmed the top of his head, shaking his entire body in that familiar way of his, and he felt warmth and sunshine spark on his tongue, but then Benzo said “Good night, Little Lady,” and the warmth sputtered out and he couldn’t stop himself from speaking.

    Benzo reeled back a little, blinking some, before looking a bit hurt. “Ah, sorry,” he chuffed. He was always a little awkward when it came to feelings, but he loved him, and he’d bear through this conversation for as long as he wanted to have it.

    “It’s just-” he sputtered, like a dying light, before the spark caught and he could continue his train of thought- “I’m not.”

    “Not little?” Benzo raised an eyebrow all the way down at him, several feet between the two of them in height, which, rude, but so not the point right now.

    “A lady.”
