Summary
It’s when he registers how manly Mike looks now, his mouth falling agape in silent awe before his mind reacts, that it hits him. This is no longer puppy love—Mike is a man, and he hates himself for feeling what he does. It shakes him; the way Mike really grew into his face.
He remembers how his high cheekbones used to dominate his features, seemingly squeezed onto a child, but now look regal, masculine. Mike used to always complain his nose is too long—that’s nothing new; but Will’s raw urge to trace a finger down its bridge is. The kind of urge that makes his skin feel too tight; his gums itch; his eyes dilate.
It’s been so many months closed off in one house. Will might as well be going insane.
