    Summary

    He takes a deep breath and considers what he wants to say.

    “That this is something we should consider and that it’s a chance that won’t come up again, at least not in the same way, and…” he squeezes Mickey’s thigh. “I think we’d be awesome parents.”

    ---

    Summary

    "How’s your support system?” The counselor asks him, her eyes happy and sad and full of pity all at once. It makes Ian’s stomach turn. She hands him a paper cup of pills and a bottle of water.

    “Not good,” he finally decides, and downs all the pills at once, chasing them with water.

    Summary

    Sometimes, on his early shifts when he starts at six a.m and the guy comes in at six thirty, like a whirlwind with a dirt streaked face or a bloody lip or a black eye, but ordering his coffee like he doesn’t look like he just got into a car crash, Ian thinks he hallucinates him. This little guy can’t actually exist out there in the world, right? He’s not actually part of society, is he? Surely, this angry asshole only exists in Ian’s diseased mind?

     

    Or in which everything is about the same, except that Ian Gallagher and Mickey Milkovich meet each other a little later in life - a little more mature, a little more stable - and manage to make a million mistakes anyway.

    Summary

    It looked like any other South Side house, with its roof caving in and barely hanging on by the seams—like a place he or Ian could have grown up, with a yard full of junk and kids running around while their parents sat drunkenly on the front stoop. It felt like a home— and Mickey knew that was what Ian wanted. A place for the two of them, that felt like that.
    -
    Or, Mickey surprises Ian for Christmas.
