Summary
Even though Eddie's name has been cleared legally, he's still very much on trial in the court of public opinion. Dealing drugs isn't a lucrative occupation anymore, and getting a legitimate job in a town who still considers him a killer isn't much of an option, either. Eddie is beginning to think skipping town and starting over somewhere no one knows his name is the only chance he has left. Steve has another idea.
AKA: Steve gets Eddie a job as an anonymous columnist at a local newspaper.

Summary
Eddie calls him Princess, flippant but watching every second, and that motherfucker just scrunches his nose and says:
“Think I’ve grown up a little these past couple years. Like, how about…I dunno. Duchess, at least, yeah?”
And Eddie chokes on his own spit when Steve winks and turns back to Nancy to figure out their next play.
—Or: five pet names that don’t pan out (but definitely mean something), plus one that sticks (and absolutely means ‘I love you’).
Plus: timestamps of the very sentimental and domestic kind (so far).

Summary
“You should leave,” he adds, for good measure. There’s silence on the other side for a moment but Steve knows it’s not that easy.
“Please. Can I come up?”
Steve should say no. If he had an ounce of self-love, he would. The problem is the way that voice shifts his world, it’s like the floor is swept from under his feet, it’s like he was frozen upside down for years and is just realizing it now.
He should say no. And yet, Steve presses the red button on his intercom, opening the front gate so that Eddie fucking Munson can waltz right back into his life.
- Or, Eddie and Steve crashed and burned. But maybe, there's still a chance at something for them.

Summary
“Ellie finds herself choking back a sob — her palms, clutching the bruised skin of Abby’s throat, suddenly feel like they’re touching fire. Everything in her system recoils, a flash of internal war, and the sensation is so jarring it sends a painful shock of paralysis up her spine.
It’s a brutal, violent transformation, but being on top of Abby just suddenly feels wrong.
Abby is half unconscious under the water when Ellie feels her fingers slip.
And it feels like she’s killing herself.”
