Growling Will stood up, his own temper flaring. "And can't you get the fact that I was in love with him through yours? It doesn't take two weeks to switch this off. He'd already fallen out of love with me and was pining after someone else whilst I was still planning what I was gonna do for Christmas, how I was gonna make a family gathering to remember with the man I loved and my son, and we'd be great. And on New Year's we'd go out on a lake and watch the fireworks to celebrate the start of a full year as a family." As Will spoke he was getting more upset and though he was managing to keep a lid on it he'd never actually spoken this aloud to anyone.
"I was set. I was happy. And then he said he was in love with someone else, and my world crashed down, fucked up, and it's not getting any better." A tear managed to wrangle its way from his eye without it noticing. "I don't need you to make this any harder for me, I need you to make it easier. I need you to do what you set out to do and help me, just like I try and help you, because I can't do this otherwise!"
