Summary
When he was lying back against his pillows, shucking his shirt and opening his mouth for Mike to kiss, Will was positively godlike. He was Mike’s savior, Mike’s redeemer. If the world was doomed, Will could save it with a kiss.
Mike and Will, at the end of the world.

Summary
When Mike first filled out the paperwork, he didn’t know if anything would come of it. He’d just arrived back in Ithaca after a spring break visit to the city. His neck was stiff from the weird nap he’d taken on the bus. It was snowing, in April. He didn't even have any friends to call up and announce his return, unless you counted his roommate, Jeremy, who greeted him with an indifferent head nod and a “hey, man” when Mike spilled through the door of their dorm room, shaking melting snowflakes out of his overgrown hair.
He trudged across campus the next day, past dirty iced-over snow drifts that seemed like they might never melt, and knocked on the door of his advisor’s office.
“If I wanted to transfer to another school next year,” he said, fidgeting with his backpack in his lap as he sat down in the squeaky vinyl-backed chair, “how would that work?”

Summary
“Okay. Umm… God this is… hard. Ok. Umm… You remember Nevada? You… Said it was hard to open up to people you care the most, cause they can… they can maybe not like the truth? You remember that?”
Will just blinked fast. Still half asleep.
“God.. You really are half-asleep” Mike let out an exhale. “Will, I need you to listen to me, okay?” He almost grabbed his hand again, but didn’t. “I’m gonna say a lot… And probably freak the fuck out. Can you… can you pay attention?”
OR
On a random Tuesday night Mike drives to NYC, wakes Will up and tells him everything.
