[ Being ready for a nervous breakdown more than hits the nail on the head. Will had been successfully distracted long enough to get home safely and have it in peace at least.
He’s perched on the arm of the couch when the knock comes and gets up to open the door with a speed that suggests he was indeed waiting for it. ]
Hey!
[ He swings the door open and gestures Peter in. The hall lights are on, in fact all the lights in the open rooms are on. The fan is whirring quietly in bathroom at the end of the hall because he’s not tall enough to reach the switch but if the door isn’t shut then the light can’t be off. The bedroom door is shut but the spare is open revealing a mess of art supplies and drying paintings. ]
You can hang your coat if you want. [ He gestures to the coat rack on the wall that contains his Halloween varsity jacket and Mikes blue plaid shirt but is otherwise empty.
Will himself is in sweats, hoodie oversized enough to hide in. The bruise across his cheek is greenish in colour and the bags under his eyes are dark but his face is mercifully not puffy from crying today. He doesn’t draw any attention to it as he gestures to the living room. ]
Thanks for coming over by the way, I was sick of being on my own.
