    Summary

    “Do you think,” Will whispers, his voice so low that it is barely audible in the little space carved between them, “it's going to last?”

    Mike frowns. “What?”

    “The pain of loving you.”

    The words land between them like shattered glass. Mike stops breathing, his eyes taking on a haunted look. For a moment he looks like he might speak —his mouth even opens slightly— but the words never come.

    Drunk out of his mind at Stacey’s party, Will is forced to confront the truth he’s been running from: Mike is not his Tammy. Only this time, Mike is there to deal with the aftermath.

    Summary

    “I'm glad you're here.”

    Mike sniffled.

    “I don't want to leave.”

    Will's hand reached out, wanting to brush the hair away from Mike's forehead, but it fell short, stopping by his shoulder. He squeezed it lightly.

    “You don't have to leave,” he whispered instead. Then, quieter: “Please don't leave.”

    Mike and Will find comfort in each other, trying to hold on despite the ghosts of their past haunting their lives.
