Summary
----------------------------------------------------------------
“It’s not my fault you don’t like girls!”
The words rang painfully in Will’s head. It felt like a slap in the face, except he felt the sting in his heart. That kind of sentence spoken aloud already hurt enough, but to hear the words fall from Mike's lips made it infinitely worse.
Will felt the hot tears strain against the corners of his eyes. A fairy, a queer, a fag, a boy who doesn’t like girls—that’s all he’ll ever be, even to his best friend.
Will’s fists clench instinctively and through a fit of bubbling anger words begin to tumble from his mouth faster than he can catch them.
Words that he can never take back.
“Well, maybe it is!”

What if the rain fight ended differently? What if Will admitted that Mike is the reason he doesn't like girls? -

“And I know, it’s not your fault. Trust me, I haven’t forgotten.”
Shit. Mike was really hoping that would never come up.
“I know, I know, I know it’s not your fault. But you know what?” Will steps closer, “it doesn’t change the fact that it feels like your fault.” With a shove on Mike’s shoulder, he painfully adds, “it feels like it’s all your fault.”
When everyone suddenly masters the art of communication, Mike and Will give it a shot. They don't get it right on the first try.
OR: 5 steps Mike takes towards the truth, and 1 leap Will makes towards destiny.
