    Summary

    In the spring of 1985, sleep-deprived and semi-reformed mean girl Stevie Harrington sees Eddie Munson in the cafeteria and thinks, ‘That could work.’

    The rest is, as they say, a coming of age.

    “So? Do you like anyone right now?” Max asks.

    “I don’t, not like that. I don’t exactly have a ton of options right now."

    Stevie has to actively push Eddie out of her mind — a specific image of him from the lakehouse. Sleep rumpled as the afternoon light streamed through the shutters, he kissed her forehead and called her sweetheart. They spent a full night and day at the lake-side cabin of Eddie’s shifty friend. Stevie cooked for them. Eddie played his guitar for her. It was an escape — a castle in the sky.

    Summary

    That made him freeze. There’s no way, right? It was just a coincidence, Finney and a baseball game. It didn’t mean anything. But he looked up at the screen and saw a painfully familiar face with two long braids of brown hair that matched his own. His little sister, Gwen.

    Summary

    “Do you want to go home?” He questions, leaning close and voice soft, and Will pauses, before nodding again. Mike lets out a breath, and lets his hand press against Will a little more firmly when he starts to sway in place again. “Okay, let’s go.”

    Then he looks up and is met with smug faces, and Mike flushes when he realizes his own hypocrisy.

    I don’t talk like that,” Max recalls, voice high-pitched and overly girly and – Mike definitely doesn’t talk like that.

    According to everyone in his life, Mike has a voice reserved just for Will. He tries to figure out what that says about him.

    Summary

    There’s one stack of texts, however, that catches her eye more than any of the others. Something so surreal she has to double-check she’s definitely reading correctly, that the time stamps are really what they appear to be.

    Evan Buckley
    43 iMessages

    Forty three texts received from Buck to Bobby’s phone since he had been gone. The most recent one dated just three hours before.

    Forty three.

    And he had only been dead eighteen days.

    This damn kid breaks Athena’s heart.

    ---

    In which Buck finds solace for his grief in Bobby's phone inbox, oblivious to the fact that Athena has had access to his texts the whole time. She holds off on reading them for as long as she can bear to. But when his behavior grows more and more concerning, it proves to not be nearly as long as either of them would like.

    Summary

    “What the hell are you talking about? What mixed signals?”

    Mike sighed, knowing he was walking a tricky line and so trying to pick his next words carefully. “Like stuff you’ve said or done that might be construed in a… gay way.”

    Tactical error. Shit. Shit.

    “Did you mean it in a gay way?”

    ---

    After confronting Will about his not-so-secret secret, Mike gets an answer he wasn't expecting. Oh, and a sexuality crisis.
