Summary
Looking back on his life, Mike felt like he probably should’ve figured out his feelings for Will a little sooner. It was something that felt so obvious, so inevitable.

Summary
Gently, gently, Mike urges him forward.
This is it; this is happening.
He can hardly breathe and Will’s nearing face is the whole world. His eyes are still open, startled and huge, the last thing Mike sees. Their noses brush, chilled from the water that gushed over them in the bathroom and from the frigid November air, but the first press of their lips is so warm.
“Oh,” Will sighs into the tiny space between their mouths, tremulous with their breathing. “Oh, Mike—"
Will saves Mike's life, and there's nothing to be afraid of anymore.

Summary
"Hey, I noticed something yesterday when we were in my room. And again last night when I, you know, carried you to bed. I know you said you didn't wanna talk, which I totally understand." Mike was sort of stumbling over his words.
"What do you mean?"
Mike looked away from Will then, his eyes focusing on anything but Will.
Will gripped the blanket that was still wrapped around his legs.
...
Mike stopped himself again, scratching the back of his neck. "Like you are disappearing, I guess. I don't know. I guess it just reminded me of when I thought I lost you all those years ago, and when you were living in Lenora."Will took in a shaky breath. "You won't lose me. I'm not withering away-"
Will is at his wits end holding in the biggest secret of his life, his love for Mike. Will Mike hate him if he knew? Will he reject him completely? Will they still be friends?
Mike's been acting differently too though. He's been quieter, he's been initiating interactions more and trying his best to read every bit of Will he can. His expressions, his breathing, his body language. Why won't he just open up to Mike? Why is he noticing more things about Will he never noticed before?
