Chapter Summary: Mickey opens up... a bit.
Author’s Note: Hello everyone! Sorry it's been over 4 years since my last update. Life happens, ya know? I'm not here to make excuses, but I am excited and happy to be back.
Anyway, on to the story. This chapter is Mickey's POV so here's a slight warning for Mickey-like language and attitudes. For example, Mickey's opinions on therapists are entirely his own. I personally couldn't survive without mine.
Hope this chapter is even a little bit worth the wait. Love ya!
