Summary
The defiant child inside him would rather be useless by Will’s side than useful anywhere else, and he was tired of fighting it.
In which Mike is scared but trying his best, never leaves Will during the final battle, and finally tries to be honest with himself. Some things go differently while others stay the same, but the two boys still can't reach each other. Many months later, still riddled with grief and an uncertain future, they try to get by, but too much is left unsaid. When Will sleeps over at Mike's house on the night of graduation, he asks to talk; many things get addressed - and then Mike slips up.
Or: Unfurling what has always been there. Everyone talks more, so blue and yellow can finally meet in the west.
