Summary
“But that’s the way it’s always said you have to be.” Gabe once told me. “My mom tells me it’s a miracle I’m alive. I have to do something big with my life.”
“That’s a lot of pressure.” I told him. “It’s okay to be in the background, and be insignificant for a while. Insignificant doesn’t always mean unimportant.”
“People tell me I’m important all of the time.” Gabe had sighed, picking at the food in front of him. “I don’t always want to be.”
At eight months old, Gabriel Goodman almost died of an intestinal blockage. Survival always comes with a price.

Summary
"So, theoretically, Micah could be seconds away from bursting out of the door behind him, demanding an explanation, forcing Gabe to look at him, stare into his piercing green eyes that Gabe loved so much - no, not love. He doesn't care for them. They're just eyes.
And they weren’t even a piercing green, not really."Gabriel Goodman is in love with Michelangelo Laurent. So then why did he have such a reaction to their firt kiss? He's certain that there's no way back from this. Because surely there's no way to fix it, right?
OR what happened while Gabe was feigning sick for three days to hide away from Micah following their firt kiss.
This is an interlude from Gabe's point of view from my main fic At The Centre of Everything (We Fade Away), throughout Chapter Eleven. Though it might make a lot more sense to read this that first, feel free to read if you just want some Gabe Goodman angst!
