I lose track of how long it takes. then, when it’s all over, the applause starts. the loudest applause you’ve ever heard.

tiny steps to the front of the stage. people throw flowers.

he’s brought us all together. we all feel that.

gideon: you did good.

I link our pinkies again.

me: yeah, we did good.

I nod to the other will grayson, up onstage. he nods to me. we have something between us, him and me.

but the truth?

everybody has it.

that’s our curse and our blessing. that’s our trial and our error and our it.

the applause continues. i look up at tiny cooper.

he may be heavy, but right now he floats.
