Summary
“Are you staying?” he asked, his voice as quiet as she’d ever heard it.
She thought for one moment of what her mother would do if she knew Nana wasn’t home, or that she was alone in that big old house with the Munson boy. Trailer trash, her mother would say, sneering. And then she thought of how Eddie made her smile. How Eddie (not Jason, never Jason) made her feel seen. Important. Worth it.
One night, one joint and a pizza, and she already felt like Eddie knew more about her than her boyfriend ever did.
“Yes,” she breathed, letting a little of her teeth show, and suddenly she felt a lot braver than she knew she was.
Or: It's Spring Break of 1986 and Chrissy Cunningham discovers just how brave she really is.

OR: Wriothesley's love for the symphony offers him insight into the Chief Justice of Fontaine's innermost thoughts and desires.
How he wishes he were a part of them.
