I'm sooooooo happy that you updated this and it was certainly worth the wait!
I loved how caring and kind Brendon was towards Mikey, even though they'd only just met. It really showed us the sort of person that Brendon is. And the fact that Mikey was kinda shocked by him wanting to help made it really clear how used to being ignored/hurt Mikey truly is.
Awesome chapter and I look forward to more! :D
