To Look Through The Eyes Of A Stranger

Sure, Chance was an asshole, had bothered Will’s friends far more times than he could remember, he would probably always be a jerk. But now Will knew something else about him, related to him in some way. He knew what it was like to be… different. That type of different.

And Will was nothing but empathetic. One of his biggest flaws, though Mike once had said it was a strength. Will wasn’t so sure anymore.

He drew a small breath, blinking slowly. “Yeah… I get it.” Will shrugged.

Chance raised his head, locking eyes with Will for a brief second. A noise of acknowledgement came from the back of his throat despite not a single word being said. A silent understanding passed through them, Will could see himself reflected in Chance. As crazy as that sounded. After all, they were totally different, complete strangers, a nerd and a jock.

Who would’ve thought.
