Summary
“I love you,” Mike whispers, and Will just about stops breathing.
He looks more intensely at Mike, whose hair sort of looks like it’s glowing from the sunlight filtering through the car window. He’s perfect.
Will is sure that he’s dreaming. He must have died somewhere on the highway, and now he’s in heaven. This can’t be real.
“What?” he finally chokes out.“That’s what I never said to El.” Mike looks out the window, away from Will. “I never said ‘I love you.’ She says it to me in her letters, but I haven’t said it back in mine. I’ll tell her that I care about her or that she’s everything to me, but not that I love her, and that’s why we fought. I don’t even know why I didn’t say it. I love you. It’s not that hard to say. I can say it just fine now. I love you, I love you, I love you.” Mike’s voice breaks off.
