    Summary

    “Have you ever…” Mike closed his eyes, letting his head fall forward for a moment, “Are you in love with Lucas?”

    Max rubbed her black eye, muttering a ow as she thought over the answer.

    “Yeah, I mean — look — don’t make fun of me.” She said, letting her hand fall in her lap, “He’s stupid a lot and makes me mad a lot. But he’s… he’s such a dork. In like, an endearing way, you know? And…”

    She hesitated for a second, expression falling. Mike could tell even though he could see her.

    “But being stuck for that long in that fucked up mindscape, all I could think about was getting back to him. So yeah, I love him.”

    Mike shook his head, fingers gently tugging on the strands of his hair. He’d cut it himself recently. It didn’t look half that bad to be completely onest.

    “No — I mean, are you in love with him?”

    There was another long pause. Mike could practically feel Max’s judgment coming off in waves. Judgment or understanding, he couldn’t tell, it always was like that with Max.

    A Scoops Ahoy AU where Mike comes out to Max, and the aftermath.

    Summary

    It’s not like anything changed much.

    Peter is usually great brushing off all the shit everyone gives him for being himself. It usually doesn’t matter what they think; what anyone thinks really.

    So why is it getting so hard for him to do that recently?
