Summary
The second year of college was supposed to be simple—shared apartments, late-night talks, the kind of quiet normalcy they’d fought so hard to earn.
Mike and Will have always been inseparable. They are roommates now, like it was always meant to be. Like nothing could touch them anymore.
Except something has.
Will has been seeing someone—Andrew—for two years. And somehow, Mike knows nothing about the guy. At least not in the ways that matter. Not in the way Will tells him everything else.
At first, it was just small things. A hesitation, a flinch, the way Will would go quiet whenever Andrew’s name came up—if it came up at all. Then there's the unexplained bruises, the tension in every stolen glance, the avoidance, and the way Will seems to shrink into himself when Andrew is near.
Mike can feel it, something is wrong.
Will has always needed Mike. That’s never changed. But now, whatever he’s hiding is pulling him under—and Mike might be the only one who can see it happening.
The only one who can stop it.
If Will lets him.
