    Summary

    “We're not getting back together.”

    Will frowns, even though his traitorous heart does a happy dance at the thought. “Surely you can't have screwed up that bad.”

    Mike shakes his head. “Will,” he says. “I broke it off."

    Interesting.

    Will is, without any doubt, fully awake now.

    The story behind "To make out? To date".

    Summary

    Will snorted at that, “A girl?” and blew a raspberry, starting to giggle right after that. “You were right, you know? Actually, everybody had been right. I don't like girls. But, you aren't. You aren't a girl, and I've been in love with you for, like. Ever.”

    Mike stilled. He felt cold, frozen. Even his fingers on Will's hand stopped shivering. He looked down at Will, really looked: he was still beautiful, even now so disheveled, blades of grass stuck in his hair, with streaks of tears wetting his face, eyebrows furrowed, unclear eyes now open wide and almost crossed as he stared adoringly back at Mike. They were moving all over Mike's face, as if he didn't want to miss a single spot, as if it was the last time he could ever look at Mike at all, and Mike– Mike was scared of his own thoughts.

    Or: something was wrong with Will - and at the fourth anniversary of his disappearance, something started to be wrong with Mike too.

    Summary

    Mike has finally made it as an author. But writing about your own past can get complicated, especially when fans start to draw conclusions that point Mike in the direction of the person he's been writing about all along.

    And living life is hard. Especially when you're doing it all on your own. But grief and love are a lot more similar than you might realise. They both tend to wake us up from the monotony of our lives.

    OR: Mike has a horrible time, which somewhere along the way turns into a wonderful time.
