mickey frantically scrolling through his texts trying to find the one from mandy with her address in indiana

mickey shaky breathing as he puts it into maps and pulls up the route then shoves some clothes in a backpack and quietly sneaks out to the car so no one will hear him leave

mickey spending the whole drive there in complete silence, worried to even make a sound bc he knows if he starts he won’t be able to stop

mickey going up the stairs to mandy’s four floor walkup studio apt slowly, sad about how shitty his sister’s building is and that she has to do this every day

mickey knocking on the door and he hears mandy cock a gun and yell WHO THE FUCK IS IT and he’d laugh if he weren’t so upset and he says “me, mands” and his voice breaks and she opens it immediately and she’s almost in tears

mickey just saying “he broke up with me” and starting to cry and mandy pulls him into a hug and walks him over to her bed so he can sit down

mickey sobbing his eyes out and babbling about how much he loves ian and how much he did for ian and how could ian just fucking break up with him after mickey told him he wants to spend his whole life with him and mandy not really understanding what he’s saying but just rubbing circles into his back and letting him cry bc she’s never seen him this upset even when they were kids so she knows it’s bad

mickey eventually calming down and he’s really embarrassed about it and seems like he’s gonna leave but mandy cracks a dumb joke and everything is okay

mickey and mandy ordering a pizza and getting super drunk and mickey tells mandy everything that happened with ian and mandy tells mickey everything that happened with lip and “fucking gallaghers”

mickey and mandy telling each other how much they’ve missed each other and that they love each other and mickey begging mandy to come back home with him before kenyatta gets back and she keeps saying she can’t and he’s getting so frustrated but he can’t take any more rejection so he drops it and changes the subject

mickey and mandy eventually falling asleep cuddled up together like they would do sometimes after their mom died and one of them was upset

mickey and mandy milkovich fucking deserve better than season 5 gave them and they at least deserve to have each other in the aftermath
