    Summary

    "It was like I got so wrapped up in the whole idea of being a boyfriend that I didn’t stop to think about if I actually liked any of it. Maybe I just wanted to be really focused on it so I didn’t have to think about how empty and surface-level it all felt.”
    “It?” Will asks quietly.
    “You know, all of it. The fights, our conversations, the things we had in common.” Mike finally pauses, hesitating. “Or, maybe I wanted to be really focused on it,” Mike says, slowly now, “so I didn’t have to think about how none of it ever felt empty or surface-level with…”
    “With who?”
    “With… with you.”

    While everyone waits around for the world to end, Mike and Will finally have a long-overdue conversation.

    Summary

    “Are you over him?”
    “What?” Will’s eyes widened at the sudden question. He watched a look of panic pass over Mike’s face but he didn’t look away from Will.
    His voice was close to a whisper, “Your crush…are you over him?”
    Will was tempted to say yes, yes he is fully over him and can try to find his Vickie, but Will was never good at lying to Mike.
    “Does it matter?” He hated the way his voice began to tremble.
    “Yes”, Mike refused to break eye contact, “your feelings matter, Will.”
    He sure makes it hard for Will to get over him.
    “I’m…I’m trying.”
    Mike studied Will’s face, when did they get so close? He became aware of how close their knees are from touching, their hands rested on the couch next to each other, the ghost of a touch waiting to happen.
    “How do you know they’re not like you?”

    OR

    Mike and Will talk after Will comes out.

    Summary

    “I should’ve been first,” Mike said.
    “What?” Will asked.
    Mike balled his hands into fists. “I should have been the first person to tell you that you weren’t gonna lose me.”
    Will laughed. He couldn’t help it. This was what Mike was so upset about. What a damn perfectionist. Mike was so kind, he cared about Will so much that he couldn’t stand to think anyone else might act more supportive than him.
    You dork.
    “Before Mom?” Will challenged. “And my brother?”
    “No! No, obviously, they would tell you first but I should have been third. At least third!” Mike pouted. He actually, honest to God, pouted.

    ***
    Or: Mike gets upset that he wasn't the first person to verbally support Will's coming out, and the conversation spirals into a direction that Will did NOT expect.

    Summary

    "So. . .I wanted to talk about, uhm. . . earlier? I guess?" His voice was uncertain, slightly shaky. 

     

    Will froze for a moment. Should he run? "Oh, okay. . . What about earlier?" It's okay. Just breathe. He took a very quiet deep breath. 

     

    "Just. . Uhm. ." Why was he so nervous? It's not like it's a very hard question. Right? If he were just normal, it wouldn't be a hard question. "You said. .that you liked this guy." 

     

    Please. I can't do this.
