Will and Mike were in Mike's bedroom, with no one in the house. Will was stroking his hair while cuddling with him, a blanket over their intertwined legs.

Will: “I love you..”

Mike wanted to say it back, but can't because he's scared of losing him. He hated himself for it, why couldn't he say say 'I love you'? It was just 3 words. Will had notice that Mikes expression became a bit more sad, he immediately noticed what was wrong as he lifted Mikes chin up, making him look at him.

Mike: “i-im sorry.. I can't say those words, I hate myself for it. Goddamnit, I'm sorry-”

Will cut him off.

Will: “Don't be, I understand why you can't say it, you're afraid of losing me, losing loved ones.”
