Summary
You’re a fucking onion, aren’t you Mickey Milkovich? Layers and layers under that brittle shell.
Mickey and Ian come from opposite sides of the tracks, but strike up an unexpected and deep friendship. When their lives implode however, it’s tested to the limit – while also revealing that things between them are not quite what they seem.
Despite this being a ‘friends to lovers’ fic it deals with some very heavy and dark subject matter, so if you’re looking for a lite fluff-fest this ain’t it. That’s not to say there’s no fluff – I always balance out the dark stuff with sweet and comedic moments and actually the tone of most of this is humorous. But please be sure to read the tags so you’re not caught off-guard. I also use chapter-by-chapter trigger warnings.
There are two separate versions of this story: Mickey's here and then Ian's. This fic should be read first to avoid spoilers contained in Ian's POV Looking Through a Glass Onion.

Summary
"It’s been a long time. Probably too long, if you ask my friends. It started last year. I noticed you up in the bleachers a couple weeks into practice. You didn’t come a lot, at first. But at some point you were there every day. And I didn’t even really realize you were there for every practice until you weren’t. And it like… I don’t know. Started some sort of obsession.” Ian’s eyes widen as he realizes what he just confessed to. “I mean! It wasn’t like. I didn’t stalk you or anything. I just. I noticed you. More than before. And you just… never looked at me"
Or the one where they're both just idiots in love.
