("You'll have to get over it. Eventually.")

"I can't do that. I love him."

("Do want Michael Mell or do you want to make your life better?")

"......but Michael-"

("Is going to hold you back. You can keep him until I find a reason to terminate the relationship smoothly.")

"That'll break him! I-I can't do that to him!"

("That's why we need to be careful about it. We'll cross that bridge when I deem it necessary.")

"I'm the only thing he has! What am I supposed to do?"

("Leave him behind for something new. He won't understand it anyway, your ambition for becoming more than you've always been.")

"............fine." He says it quietly.

("Enjoy it while it lasts.")

"I..........I will." Michael eventually comes stumbling back in, clean and in his sweats and ready to pass out.

"Jeremy, that was the best high sex I've ever had, thanks player 2."

"Me too."

"if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna sleep forever now, I'm exhausted."

"Yeah, me too."

"c'mere, put some pants on and cuddle me, you nerd." He smiles a little and puts his own sweat pants on before getting in bed and wrapping g his arms around his waist. Michael kisses his nose.

"Gorgeous." Jeremy smiles sweetly.

"Beautiful."

"Pretty. Bonito, muy guapo, el novio mejor, ay ay ay, te amo, mi amor!" he just keeps smoochin his face. Jeremy sorta giggles at that. He's so cute. He doesn't want to lose him.

"You're so cute, Jeremy, I can't believe I get to look at you every day."

"You flatter me."

"It's true. You are undeniably the cutest person in the world."

("This.... is going to be hard...")

("By the time you have to do it, it will be easy.")

("I hate that it will! It shouldn't be easy. He's my best friend and my boyfriend.")

("And he's drastically detrimental to our plans. ")

("How???")

("He will discourage certain things. He is not chill. He is anxious, depressive, and codependent. His relationship with you demands attention that you will not be able to afford him once you reach the top. ")

("........what will happen to him?")

("Most likely a spiral further into his self destructive habits that Jared will have to help him with.")

("Would he...... do anything stupid?") he's talking about the bad kind of stupid.

("Not immediately, but eventually.")
