Ian Gallagher had everything in life perfectly balanced -- he was the youngest self-employed actuary in Chicago, was the reliable one his siblings turned to to keep their lives from combusting, and was on the verge of signing a client who would secure his new company’s future. That is until his new blue-eyed assistant turned everything on its head.
Or
The one where Mickey gets a job as Ian's secretary.

“Mickey,” Ian repeated quietly, butterflies forming in Mickey’s gut at the sound of his name on the man’s generous lips, as they curved upwards just a little like the two of them were sharing a private memory, except one where Mickey had amnesia. “It’s a pleasure to officially meet you.” Cubicle Wars, J_Q
“Ian wanders down the alley behind the Gallagher house, resisting the urge to go full Disney heroine and just spin around with his arms flung out. He is so happy it is making him dumb. His brain is just so satisfied, so wildly incurious about everything that isn’t Mickey Milkovich, that he can barely keep track of basic things like ROTC and the days of the week. Everything he does feels like biding time until he sees Mickey again.” Bound, ColdReign
“Yeah, it might be time to take this whole sobriety thing a bit more seriously,” Lip lets out a deep sigh. “I’m also going to get fucking shredded. Maybe buy a motorcycle.” “No, I’m going to get shredded,” Ian decides, just to be annoying. “How much more shredded could you possibly get?” Mickey asks. “You’re already at the gym twenty four fucking seven.” Ian Gallagher and all his Mistakes, Toraten
References to explicit scenes below the jump.
“Because on the other side of the door is Ian. His fist still raised from where he’d been hammering on the door just a moment earlier, his brows furrowed together and his jaw set, his coat unbuttoned and falling off one of his shoulders, twisted, like it had been thrown on in a mad hurry. His chest is rising and falling quickly; he’s out of breath. For a second, just from looking at him, so is Mickey.“The fuck are you doing here?” Mickey asks, but his throat is dry and his heart isn’t in the dismissive tone of the words. Ian looks at him, and the look is deep and blazing hot and Mickey can’t look away, can’t even breathe.And then Ian says, “I wanna finish what we started.”” Melánia, milominderbinder
“Pressed against his back, arm draped over his midsection like he was his own personal teddy bear, was Ian fucking Gallagher. He didn’t have a clue when Ian crawled in the tent, normally he would have woken up at that kind of thing, but he didn’t mind- shit, it feels incredible to have him there. Their co-sleeping at his house had been weirdly platonic, not wanting to fall into old patterns, so to have Ian molded against him like this, it’s so good.” By and By, @nowherenj
“And then something happened that Mickey wasn’t expecting at all. He opened his eyes, because Ian had removed his hand from his hip quickly, reaching it out in front of Mickey. At first he didn’t understand what was happening, then he saw Ian making a stop motion with his hand to a guy standing directly in front of Mickey. Then Ian’s mouth detached from Mickey’s neck, and very clearly he heard his boyfriend call over the music, to the man, “Fuck off.”” The Boyfriend Experience, anomalously
“He felt warmth cover his hand and his forehead dropped to Ian’s shoulder as his heart slowed its pace, only to pick up speed again when Ian’s voice filled his ear.“Thank you, Mickey.”” Risky Business, J_Q, Nicrenkel
“He feels his thighs shaking where Ian is gripping them, a steady stream of noises spilling helplessly from his lips as a gut-wrenching orgasm rips through his entire body. Ian follows him quickly, digging his fingers hard into Mickey’s thighs as he comes inside of him, head thrown back in complete and total fucking ecstasy.” To Feel This Kind of Thrill, @ianrightsonly
