    Summary

    “No. No, Mike, can you hear me?” He nods, ever so slightly. It’s enough for Will. If he’s dying— if these are truly the last words that will ever be spoken between them— there’s only one thing he can say. “I love you. I’m in love with you, Mike, please. You can’t go. I love you so much,” Will whispers, cradling his body to his chest.

    Will confesses his feelings as Mike takes his last breaths— and then Mike decides to be a stubborn asshole about it and survives. Will is left to deal with the aftermath of his choice, navigating an awkward new friendship.

    Summary

    “Wait, so—” Lucas’s voice was choked, disbelieving. “You jumped off a cliff? On purpose?”
    Mike didn’t reply, too busy shoving his panic down as hard as he could, but the non-answer was as bad as an answer. “It’s not a big deal,” he finally managed.
    “Uh, I’m pretty sure it is.” Now even Max was worried, why was everyone so worried? It. Didn’t. Matter. And he did not want to talk about it. “Like, the definition of a big deal.”

    Summary

    No one ever talks about what happens after.

    No one told Will that the monsters would never really leave him. No one told Will how being taken and possessed would sit in his stomach like a coiled-up vine. No one told Will how he'd never feel like himself again.

    No one told Will what to do, now that the worst is over and he doesn't feel any better. No one told Will how to handle the after, the in-between of not dying and still feeling dead.

    No one told Will how to feel alive, so he figures it out for himself.

    (Or; A study of how Will handles— or doesn't handle— the aftermath of what happens to him.)
