description: After Alex's betrayal, Mick wants to die from his broken heart and the guilt he feels for what Alex did. Beck can't stand to see the man he loves blame himself for Alex's actions. He tries to do everything he can to help Mick, but when Beck admits he's loved Mick for years, it's too much pressure for Mick's fragile psyche. Mick decides that what he needs is to distance himself from the memories and pressure. Instead, he buries himself in the new club and getting it on track to open on time. Except nothing goes as planned, and when Beck, after having quit his job as head of security for the club, is in trouble, he drops everything to help his friend. Beck has a condition of his own before he'll come back to work. Can Mick put his issues away and give Beck what he needs?
