Summary
“A card?”, Will asks, tilting his head a little, “What card?”
Sure, Mike thinks, as if this hasn’t been embarrassing enough already. He can see it in Will’s eyes, that he knows what this is about and he’s daring Mike to ask it out loud for whatever reason. To let this personal humiliation ritual reach its full-circle moment, making it clear that Mike is disappointed that he’s not Will’s Valentine this year. He’ll get back at him for this, someday.
Mike takes a deep breath. “You know, every year you write me a Valentine’s Day card and every year you give it to me four days before I’m supposed to open it. Why not this year? Why didn’t you give me a card?” There. He said it. He asked him. Lucas’ leg taps up and down anxiously, eyes still focused elsewhere but clearly monitoring what Will has to say.
Will shrugs, casual as ever, “Why didn’t you give me a card?”
Mike blinks, “What?”
Will looks at him as if this had been obvious all along. “You’re right, Mike, every year I give you one and every year I receive nothing in return. I just thought you might not want one anymore.”
