Summary
“You already booked the flight,” Will says after a moment, not quite a question.
Mike nods again, slower this time. “Yeah.”
There’s a beat.
“That’s… insane.”
“I know.”
“At three in the morning.”
“I know.”
“Without asking me first.”
Mike hesitates, just for a second. “…Yeah.”
Will lets out a quiet breath, somewhere between a sigh and a laugh, shaking his head a little as he looks down at his hands. There’s something almost familiar about this, in a weird, sideways way. Mike making a reckless decision and then showing up after the fact like, hey, so I did a thing, you’re coming with me, right?
It used to be easier to say yes.
It used to be automatic.
Now it feels like standing on the edge of something he doesn’t have a name for.
or; With college looming and everything between them already slipping, Mike asks Will to cross an ocean with him—and fix what they broke before it’s too late. But not everything goes the way Mike plans, not that he's complaining of course.

Summary
What exactly is Will supposed to say here? Hey, sorry this metaphorical wall is my fault. I’m kinda maybe definitely in love with you. Friends? Yeah, he’d rather jump off the tower than admit that.
But there’s one question that keeps circling in Will’s head, louder than everything else Mike just said.
Before he can stop himself, it slips out.“Why did you say it?”
or: the world is ending, Dustin is yelling from somewhere above them, and Mike decides now is the perfect time to figure out his feelings.

Summary
As much of a mystery as Mike was, Will had come to understand at least one thing. Mike needed to be needed.
Will felt like a lightbulb had gone off in his head when he’d come to the realisation.
The dealing, the sex, the taunting texts – it all made sense. People came to Mike to get what they needed, whether that be drugs, an orgasm, or the last word in a fiery exchange.
The goading messages were a test, Will had decided – a constant push and pull, Mike seeing whether Will would come back and defend himself against his harsh words.
In a way, Will was no better than the people traipsing Mike’s door at all hours of the night. He did need something from Mike, just the same as everyone else.Or:
Ending up on the infamous roster of the college drug dealer was not in Will's college plans. He'd had a list — a real one, written down — of how this year was supposed to go. Mike Wheeler was not on it. None of this was.
