    Summary

    "Leave it," Eddie says, his voice pulled taut like a wire about to snap, tight enough to hum.

    Buck looks at him, and Eddie’s whole body has gone so rigid he looks carved from stone, but Buck will ruminate on that later. But he can't exactly leave his phone under the seat for the next eight hundred miles, it's got his whole life on it, every stupid photo he's ever taken of Christopher and Eddie and Eddie and Christopher and, embarrassingly, just Eddie, so many just-Eddies, an entire hidden album of candids he'll never admit to because they constitute evidence of something he's been pretending he doesn't feel.

    "I can't leave it, it's my phone. It's got— hold on, I think it slid under your seat."

    “Buck, don’t.”

    It’s as if Eddie doesn’t even know him, because Buck has never once heard the word don’t and responded with anything resembling obedience. So now he’s stretching across the center console with one hand braced on Eddie’s thigh for leverage, the other reaching blindly into the dark gap beneath the driver’s seat, and he’s aware on some level that his positioning is— that he’s essentially— that his head is—

    He’s in Eddie’s lap.

    Or,
    What's a little road-head between friends?

    Summary

    Andrew isn't a renowed author. Sure, he has his fans here and there, a few hardcore readers, but he's not famous or internationally known.

    So, when he stumbles across his own book in a place where it absolutely shouldn't be and in a language it absolutely wasn't translated to, he makes it his personal mission to find the person behind it.

    Summary

    “I’m obsessive about everything,” Neil protests, sitting in a booth with the four upperclassmen he can stand. “What makes this obsession special?”

    “Okay, we get the Exy obsession, because you’re legitimately planning on going pro, and we get the Kevin obsession because he’s dedicated to teaching you to go pro, and we even get the Minyard obsession,” Dan says.

    “Shh,” Neil pleads desperately, hoping beyond hope that nobody heard that.

    “But the podcast has nothing to do with Exy! It’s half about music, and you don’t even like music that much,” Dan says. “It’s literally just music and a really weird guy talking about his homicidal impulses, and it sorta sounds like a joke, but on a much more real level it sounds like it’s absolutely not a joke and I would call the authorities if this guy gave any personal details at all,” Dan says.

    “It’s mostly a joke,” Neil offers, but it sounds weak to his own ears.

    --

    In which Andrew has a podcast, and Neil falls in love with him twice.

    Summary

    The man turns and strides away and Junior is frozen to the spot. Andrew wants to yell, Don't make him wait!, and he wants to yell, Get as far away from him as you can!, but he says nothing, and after a moment the mother turns to the boy who still hasn't moved—looks like he's barely taken a breath—and says, "Come on, Nathaniel."
