Summary
Sometimes, I still order pizza without olives, he wants to say. Sometimes, I write to you. For you. Sometimes, you're the only person I want to call. I still have my watch. I saw a poster for The Cure and thought of you, two months ago. It’s on my wall. Do you still like horror movies? Everything reminds me of you. You’re all I think about.
Mike shakes his head. "I think about you all the time."
Will frowns. "Don't – don't say that."
"Why not?" Mike questions, shifting where he sits. "It's true."
December, 1993.
For the first time in four years, Mike and Will speak to each other.Bookmarked by mad_armtong

Summary
Marlene McKinnon is a mess. She can’t sleep, she’s almost certainly going to fail all her NEWTs, and she’s 99% sure that if they don’t win the Quidditch Cup this year James Potter will throw himself headfirst off the Astronomy Tower. On top of all that, there’s a war on, yet their professors seem determined to pretend that the biggest problem any of them are facing is finding a Ministry internship. Marlene’s final year at Hogwarts has barely started, and she’s already pretty sure it couldn’t get any worse—that is, until she shows up for her first Potions class and hears the assignment.
///
Dorcas Meadowes is a stone-cold bitch. At least, that’s what everyone says. She doesn’t need well-meaning professors or overeager classmates or teammates or boyfriends or friends. She doesn’t need anything except to be left alone, the way she likes, until the day she finally leaves school. And she certainly doesn’t need Marlene McKinnon, with her sharp tongue and her snorting laugh and her stupid shiny hair, who seems intent on ruining everything that Dorcas has been working towards for the past two years.PLEASE DON'T POST MY FICS ON GOODREADS/STORYGRAPHS/ETC.

Thinking it's the only way to bring himself back to life and get his friends back, he embarks on a cross-country road trip with his best friends from high school as they navigate loss, the dread of getting older, and what it means to have boys of faith, and maybe finding love along the way.
