Summary
“Love takes many shapes, sometimes it can feel like bliss, and other times it can feel like hell. As women, we must endure all of them to survive."
For as long as I can remember, I have only wanted one thing in life: true, unconditional love. Romantic, familial, or friendship - it didn't matter; I was desperate to be loved in any way possible. In the fairy tales I was read as a child, true love was depicted as being treasured, seen, accepted, and adored by someone who expects nothing but the same love in return. Growing up taught me that in real life, love is far more complicated than that.

Summary
Not wanting to hold Till back from reaching his potential as a musician, Ivan breaks up with him for the last time under the false pretense of being fed up with their tumultuous relationship. Neither he nor Till knew he was pregnant at the time, but once Ivan learns of it, he fears the baby would only hold Till back more, so he decides to have it and raise it entirely by himself.
Ivan and Till accidentally meet again at the grocery store 7 years after separating; Till meets the little girl he didn't know he had for the first time and immediately loves her more than life itself. To avoid having to justify Till's absence, Ivan had lead her to believe Till was just busy with work rather than them being broken up as they really were, which comes back to bite him as they have to improvise acting as if they are still together despite not having seen or spoken to each other in several years.
Stuck needing to pretend until they can get a moment to talk alone to decide what to do, Ivan and Till are inevitably drawn to one-another, Till never having wanted to be left and Ivan not truly having wanted to leave him in the first place. They're brought back together by their little girl, for good this time.

Mike had kindly offered up their place during dinner.

The 18-month gap between s4 and s5 told from Mike's POV with minor other POV's as the story progresses. The gap has been lengthened to encapsulate more time passing. They start at 16, but by chapter 6 they're 17 1/2 with them turning 18 chapter 32/34.

Summary
“’Morning,” Mike grumbled, voice low from sleep.
“Noon,” Max corrected, as if she hadn’t only woken up thirty minutes before him.
“Wow,” he replied, squinting at the light. “Nobody thought to wake me?”
It happened casually after that, so casually it almost didn’t register at first. El laughed at something Lucas said, then turned toward Mike and leaned in, instinctively, easily, pressing a kiss to his lips like it was the most logical way to say good morning to him.
.........
or: Mike and Will have been together for a year and a half when El comes back. The problem is, El assumes she and Mike are still together. The bigger problem is that Mike doesn’t realize Will thinks he might choose her.
