“I’d make it happen for you,” he’s saying, before he can talk himself out of it, “if you really wanted to run away, Will.”

Wanting something bad enough that it felt like you were choking on its animal body didn’t mean that you could keep it. Sometimes, Mack thinks that he could have this lesson imparted on him a thousand different ways—twelve seconds on the clock and a missed one-timer, an Olympic silver medal in his Team Canada carry-on, having Will text him raincheck? Ed’s flying in and looking down at his stress-white knuckles in betrayal and wishing he was a good person—and he’d still find himself waiting for something to change anyway.

“I meant Smit. I wish I hated him, sometimes.”
In all the years that it had taken for this cut to fester and rot, this was the closest he’d ever come to talking about it with anyone. The steering wheel creaked under Toff’s grip. He didn’t say anything for a long time, and Mack had thought that he was trying to spare Mack the mortification of being drunk and talking out of his ass. Then, he asked, “Was the ring nice, at least?”
Mack closed his eyes and willed his stomach to stop turning. Pretended he was twenty again, sitting in Toff’s car while Will slept on his shoulder. Pretended it didn’t live inside him, this hurt and this violence. “It was nice,” he said, and he wondered if there was ever going to be a point when this felt bearable. “Ed’s lucky. Really lucky.”
