[A silent hope starts building in his chest when the door opens, Scott looking up from his spot on the ground to look at the worn out figure of his friend. He's not sure if he's seen him this defeated before and broken down before. It was always obvious that the biker was crying in the bathroom, but seeing the traces of it is a painful affirmation that only makes the mutant want to reach out more.
Luckily, he doesn't say anything. More words at this point would be too much, right? It's already a large step for Mikey to let himself be seen like this.
So, Scott quietly just wraps his arms around his friend, letting him bury his face against available neck. He's long grown past feeling embarrassed about this kind of thing. Not to mention that supporting Mikey is far more important. Just like how a lot of his friends originally helped him through so much shit, it's time for him to return that favor.]
