Author's Summary:
Mickey just needs to keep his head down and stay out of trouble at his new job. Still trouble always manages to find him and when it takes the form of his red haired boss, Mickey's not sure he can resist even if he wanted to.

Review:
I love everything about this fic. The roller coaster that is Mickey and Ian's relationship is beautifully done here, with the added value of Ian being Mickey's boss. It's long, it's plotty, it makes you emotionally invested in these stupid characters who have so many flaws and yet are so perfect together (whoops, spilling my feelings all over this review, haha). It'll make you laugh and it'll make you want to throttle characters because they are being stupi--whoops again.

Ian's the owner of an extraordinarily successful video game company. He and Mickey have never met in Southside though they're both from there, and Mickey ends up working at Ian's company. The attraction is instantaneous and the sex pretty much happens immediately. Of course then there's feelings and Mickey being skittish and misunderstandings and it's glorious. It really is.

This fic is just fun. The ending is unabashedly, almost ridiculously, happy. For all the ups and downs with Ian and Mickey's relationship (and there are many), you never really doubt that the two of them would stay together until the end.
