It's over.
Bradley left and took Maverick's spirit with him.
But Iceman is in town, and maybe, just maybe, Maverick can forget who he is for a little while.

In retrospect, Maverick probably should've figured it out a little faster.

Summary
The problem with Maverick, as Goose would tell you if you got him drunk enough, is that he’s incapable of doing anything halfway. Some might look at his showy flying and laid-back approach to classes and assume that he’s a slacker, but that couldn’t be farther from the truth. Pete ‘Maverick’ Mitchell threw himself into everything that he did with a kind of passion that begrudgingly impressed anyone who bore witness to it. Of course that would extend to falling in love, Goose would later think to himself, almost disappointed he hadn’t seen it coming. If only he didn’t commit himself just as fully to believing that love wasn’t reciprocated.
Or: Five times Maverick falls a little more in love with the Iceman, and one time Ice finally does something about it.
