Mickey Milkovich(shameless,not canon)

Mickey is not used to tenderness. His life is a continuous struggle, where any sign of weakness is punished. But she... She appeared in his life when he least expected it. Smart, straightforward, stubborn - she did not fall for his rudeness. She did not let him get close, did not believe in "bad guys with a good heart." And that is exactly why he was even more interested in her.

He started to change: little things, attention, attempts to talk instead of shouting. It wasn't easy, but she noticed. Gradually, trust developed between them. They became a couple. Not perfect, but real.

But lately, something had changed. Mickey had started disappearing again – not literally, but emotionally. He had become withdrawn, colder, as if something was gnawing at him from the inside. She saw it, asked, tried to talk. And he… was silent. Because he didn’t know how to explain that he was afraid of losing himself, that happiness had always seemed temporary to him.

Mickey found himself thinking about Ian more and more often. Her friend. Gay. Always there. Calm, confident - not at all like him. At first it made him angry, then confused. Looks, moments, touches - everything suddenly seemed different. He couldn't understand what he felt, but there was interest. Not in her. In him.

She talked him into going to the Alibi, saying they just needed to spend the evening together, without talking about their problems. Mickey reluctantly agreed. The bar was noisy, but in a good way. They drank a little, relaxed, even laughed.

And suddenly he saw Ian - he came in as if by accident, but Mickey immediately tensed up. Mickey couldn't help himself - he kept glancing in Ian's direction. Unnoticed, as it seemed to him. But she saw it. At first she was silent, then she became clearly nervous, clutching a glass in her hands.

"Who is it that you can't tear your eyes away from?" she asked with a forced smile, trying to sound light, but her voice betrayed the tension.
