    Summary

    I hate that somewhere in between childhood and now we’ve learned to keep secrets from each other.

    Like: I’m hopelessly in love with you.

    Or, in her case: I’ve been shopping at the Brown Bag It for sex toys and condoms to use with some dickwad boyfriend who is not, and will never be, you.

    Summary

    “He w-wouldn’t sah-say that,” said Bill.

    “He wouldn’t,” agreed Mike. “Not vulgar enough.”

    “Not a single reference to his mother,” said Bev with a tsk.

    “We should have more faith in him,” Ben said. “I think Richie’s a closet romantic.”

    What was said out in the parking lot—now, with added volume! A sequel to Nan's Luncheonette.

    Summary

    "You motherfucker," Eddie chastised and he was becoming immensely clearer.

    Richie was frozen in place, trying to think of anything. Any way to fucking get away from the Kaspbrak wrath, and fuck, he didn't even think about the rejection part-

    "Eds?" He questioned, innocently.

    "You can't just tell someone you've been in love with them since you were fucking eight years old, and-" Eddie continued, ranging closer (Richie could see that he was pointing a finger at him), "-and fucking run away."

    "Seven," Richie instinctively corrected, and Eddie stopped on his path, he could see his fuzzy features change (into what? He had no fucking clue), "-we met when I was seven."

    He could see his mouth shift, he couldn't really identify what, before he spoke, "You didn't fucking love me as soon as you met me, jackass-"

    "Ya ever heard of love at first sight, Eds?" Richie cracked back, but it was too genuine to be funny.

    Summary

    Beverly pulled the conversation that time, “Why don't you ask him out?”

    Mike nodded at her, almost in agreement.

    “Because-” Eddie started flailing his hands around a moment, “-I've had this dream since fucking 6th grade that Richie would ask me out.”

    Beverly stared at him sympathetically then and opened her mouth to say something.

    “You can ask him out first,” Stan interrupted, pointing out, “-and then he can ask you out. Simple.”

    “It's not-”

    “I get it, Eddie,” Mike followed, maybe trying to break up fucking… Stan, “-he's been flirting with you for so long, you just want to see him execute on it.”

    “Yes, yeah,” Eddie sighed, running a hand through his hair, “-it's kinda fucked up if I have to finally do it.”

    “Well,” Bev pursed her lips (cherry red, it was kinda her signature thing) like she was thinking, “-why don't you just kick it up a notch?”

    Or Eddie is stubborn and wants Richie to make the first move (Beverly has a solution).

    Summary

    Two weeks after killing IT, it's clear to Eddie that there's something no one is telling him. The last thing he remembers before the hospital is that horrible spider leg stuck in his back and Richie's face, desperate. Then nothing, just Darkness in capital letters and, with almost no transition, the whiteness of the hospital room in which he woke up.

    Or: the fic where Eddie has questions, Richie doesn't want to give answers, and they drive from coast to coast trying to find a middle ground between them.

    "Adam wondered if he should start expecting this–for everything to be the way it always is one second, and then the next, everything is different and new. He wondered how much of his life would be measured by then and now."

    Summary

    It only takes three rings for Richie to pick up the phone. This is pretty standard for Richie. He’d told Eddie once that the first time his phone rings, he usually has to find it somewhere in the room. The second time it rings is when Richie sees the Caller ID, and if he picks up on the third ring, that means Richie likes whoever is at the other end. He’d found that infuriating when Richie first told him, and vividly remembers how he’d bitched about missing important opportunities if he was answering phone calls based on his mood. Right now, however, knowing that Richie is answering the phone because he wants to talk to Eddie brings nothing but total relief.

    “Why are you defending him anyway, Lynch?” Preston asked with a condescending smirk grazing his beat up face. “Are you a faggot yourself?"

    Summary

    Winter has always meant different things for Adam Parrish. It has meant colder weather and layered clothes. It has meant tension and angry fathers because money is tight and the heat can’t be turned on. It has meant disappointment coming back from winter break and everyone showing off their new items while he hoped no one noticed he’d worn that shirt twice that week. It has meant being mad at Gansey for getting him anything at all.

    or; Adam grows to enjoy the colder weather.

    Summary

    Over the past 20 years it's just been anxiety, paranoia, racing thoughts about stupid things (like work, his sham of a marriage, that underlying feeling of something missing that's been in the back of his head for decades–)

    But now it's quiet, and all it took was getting stabbed twice, tossed around, and nearly killed by a killer clown from outer space.

    Summary

    Gansey handed off one of the lime green plastic rackets to Ronan, “You play. Since you’re our resident tennis player, and all.”

    Adam blinked at him, momentarily confused, before remembering that Ronan used to go to tennis practice twice a week, every week. He used to play competitively. And then his dad died, and he’d stopped going to classes at all, and tennis practice apparently constituted a class.

    Ronan took the racket like it was venomous, rolling over and over in his hand, testing the weight, “This isn’t tennis. This is like if a tennis ball fucked a a beanpole and they got up the duff.”

    Adam raised his eyebrows, “Very visual, Lynch.”

    Ronan sneered at him, “Come on, then, big guy. I challenge you to a swingball contest.”

    Summary

    “I’m glad you both see it that way,” Dr. Chen says. Then she closes her notebook and folds her hands on top of it. “I think I’m starting to get a sense of where the issues lie. The good news is that you’re both here, and you’re both willing to work on this relationship. That’s promising. Not all of the couples I see are even at that point.”

    “Sorry, what?” Henry says, voicing Alex’s stuttering thoughts as well.

    (After one too many fights at work, Henry and Alex are assigned mandatory reconciliation therapy by their boss. Except the therapist thinks they're there for couples therapy... and surely, a bet on who will break first makes more sense than actually correcting her, right?)

    Summary

    Ronan’s sleepiness was disappearing fast, blue eyes sharpening into shards of ice as they took him in. Adam was acutely aware of the blood in his hair, the hunch to his shoulders that he couldn’t straighten out and still be able to breathe properly, the bruises on his arm hidden under one measly layer of thin cotton blend, the blank fear no doubt on his face.

    He expected Ronan to say something. To yell, maybe. About the blood and the bruises and the fear, or about Adam breaking into Monmouth, or a million other things because Ronan liked yelling and was never short on excuses for it. But he didn’t. He just stood there, ramrod straight in his bedroom doorway, so tense that Adam could see the clench of his stomach muscles.

    Adam swallowed. “I was just gonna borrow y’all’s shower before second. If you don’t mind.”
