   Summary

   Lucas looks a little hurt. "But you could have told us it happened?"

   Will resists the urge to bang his head on the table. Probably wouldn't help his case.

   "I mean, I couldn’t really— it was—" He looks at Mike, gives a tiny shrug and a head shake, something subtle enough to be not picked up on by the rest, hopefully. A hail-Mike. A please find a way to help me out of this lie.

   And Mike Wheeler, he does know how to answer a call.

   "It was me," Mike says.

   Will gets caught up in a lie about not being a virgin. Mike decides to help out. This surely will not spiral.
