Summary
It's been a few months since the group has escaped the circus, and things are going well, for the most part. They've got jobs, hobbies, relationships, and they've all jumped back into life with more vigor than ever before. It's good. Almost. Jax thinks that's a sign, in a weird way, that perhaps all of this isn't as worthy as it seems. That he's not as worthy. Not that it matters.
And so, on one random Sunday night, Jax decides he's going to take his own life.
Or
Author wanted to write a character study about Jax coping in the real world while also learning to see himself as a person. -

Summary
As Jax walks into the restroom and shuts the heavy white door behind him, the noise from outside fades into muffles. Shuffling to the sink and leaning over, placing both hands and resting all of his weight on the beige counter, he hangs his head low. His gaze drifts up to the slightly rusted mirror infront of him. As he stares deep into his reflection, a feeling of disgust slowly washes over his face as he lets out a long, sorrowful sigh.
He breathes shakily and can feel his arms trembling over the porcelain, attempting to drown out his thoughts with the sound of running water.
After a minute, he looks back up at himself. No, he's NOT doing this. They all mean nothing to him, and he means nothing in return.
".. This is stupid.."
tldr; Basically, Pomni finds him the night of the fight and it changes the whole direction of the plot.

Summary
The first time it happens, Will classifies it as a little accident.
When he wakes, the morning sun is burning through the window onto their faces, and Mike’s cursing as he stands to close the curtains, stumbling all the way.
“Scoot over,” he grumbles, voice dry, and for a second Will can’t do anything other than sigh like a lovesick idiot. It’s a second too late for Mike, because he grumbles more words Will doesn’t catch under his breath and then physically pushes Will towards the wall to lay beside him, arm over Will’s middle. A second of silence passes, then Mike sighs, only to whine: “Fuck, my head hurts.”
Will can’t help it: he breaks down laughing, much to Mike’s offense.
---------------
Alternatively: five times Mike kissed Will, and one time Will kissed back.

Summary
After a year of distance, Will and Mike are alone together again—and despite the snowstorm, the space between them turns out to be the hardest thing to survive.
“Never have I ever… been kissed.”
Clearly, he didn't drink. The only person he’d ever even thought about kissing was sitting two feet away from him—and painfully, obviously unavailable.
“You really haven’t?” Mike asked quietly. “Ever?”
“No,” Will said quietly.
Mike studied him, like he was trying to understand something he hadn’t realized was missing before. “Not even once?”
“No,” Will said again. “Not even close.”
“I just… I don’t know. I guess I thought—” Mike muttered, scooting a little closer, slow enough that Will could’ve pretended not to notice. Their shoulders brushed. This time, neither of them laughed it off.
Mike swallowed. “I just think it’s kind of unfair.”
“Unfair?” Will echoed.
“Yeah,” Mike said. “Like… you should get to know what it’s like. At least once.”
