Summary
"I love you, too."
Her breath stuttered in her chest. Four years. He'd held those words on his lips and in his heart for four years, refusing to tell her goodbye.
She had feared bitterness from him, or anger, or something, anything, that would come between them, because something always came between them, didn't it?
But in his first words to her, he had cut through every fear, every obstacle. It was as if he'd stepped through space and time and impossible heartbreak to say, I'm still here. I've been waiting. I never stopped loving you.
El and Mike try and fail, over the years, to find peace without each other, until El realizes enough is enough: she will find a way to bring Mike back into her life, no matter the cost.

Summary
A figure about four inches shorter than Neel walks forward, red-and-yellow dress swaying in the gentle breeze as she drapes an arm around his back. Her dark hair is pulled into a low bun, lustrous and full under the beat of the sun. As she turns her head to greet Mike, her sincere smile topples faster than a Jenga tower after the yank of the last block.
Mike’s throat shuts itself off from his lips as his eyes meet hers.
Because thirteen years later, El still has the most gorgeous pair of doe eyes Mike has ever encountered, and she’s caressing his new coworker right in front of him.

13 years after the events of the season 5, El is working at the local radio station and living happily with her long-term boyfriend in the UK.
So what happens when her partner's new friend and coworker happens to be Mike Wheeler, the love of her life and a ghost of her past? And what happens when he delivers some life-changing news about an important person from her past, one that has her questioning her current life and relationships?
