Summary
“But it was like—looking at a piece of art, you know? Like, just looking at someone and thinking, how do they even exist? That level of… awe, almost.”
Will thinks about Mike in the back of Argyle’s van. About the jut of his cheekbone, the glimmer in his eye. The curve of his lips. Still, even through all that—hiding something. Just like Jonathan said. A beautiful mystery, wrapped up in one of the most complicated packages Will’s ever seen. “Yeah,” he murmurs, resting his chin in his palm. “Yeah, I get it.”
“Wheelers, huh?” Jonathan murmurs, with a slight smile. “Got some kinda spell over us, man.”
“God, tell me about it,” Will groans.

Summary
“Thank you, Mike,” Joyce says with as much sincerity as she can in her kind-of-fucked-up state. “Thank you for being there for Will, too. I think—” she hiccups, and Mike wipes her eyes with the sleeves of his jacket. “I think you’re the bestest friend he’s ever had.”
The younger boy smiles back at her. “He’s the bestest friend I’ve ever had, too.”

Summary
Mike's eyes focus on the drawing, and a slow smile spreads across his face. "It's cute," he murmurs, the words slightly muffled but unmistakably fond.
Will raises an eyebrow, a playful defense ready at his lips. "Cute? I was going for 'cool' and 'strong.' Knights are supposed to be formidable, not cute."
Mike looks up at Will, his smile widening. "Yeah, but, it's cute that you drew it for me," he insists. The sincerity in his gaze is unmistakable, and it sends an unexpected flutter through Will's chest.
Will's cheeks burn with a blush, the compliment catching him off guard. "I always draw stuff for you."
"Yeah, and it's always cute. Just like you," Mike adds, his hand reaching out to gently boop Will on the nose.
...
Will, his cheeks aflame, stammers in disbelief, "Did you just—"
