Summary
Ever since the sewers, Eddie's been sick.
Eddie's been different. Since the black vomit spewed from the Leper's mouth, dripping into the corners of Eddie's lips and touching the tip of his tongue. The smallest drop. Slowly it festered and spread and seeped into his veins.
Eddie becomes a marionette for this new evil. It pushes him out, burying the true Eddie into a sunken, dark place.

Summary
Eddie knows he may be naive, but he’s not entirely dumb. It takes a minute or two, but it finally clicks for him, watching the tinge of pink spread on Stanley’s cheeks. He thinks about the look on Stan’s face when they took the pictures in the booth yesterday, how he couldn’t seem to keep his eyes off of Eddie.
Just like Eddie can’t seem to take his eyes off of Stan now.

Summary
Richie had no qualms about staying in New York. Eddie enjoyed his job as a driver, and panics whenever he so much as has to find a new doctor, let alone move across the country. Within two weeks after leaving Derry, Richie had ordered his agent to sell his penthouse in Los Angeles, bringing all of his things into a quaint townhouse Eddie had his eye on since moving into Manhattan years ago. Now it belongs to them, a place where Eddie hopes to start a loving family with his beloved fiance and childhood crush.

Summary
“What’s the problem? Are we planning on leaving the room?” Richie grinned, throwing a heavy-sounding duffle bag onto the mattress.
“Aren’t we?” Eddie asked. Of course he should have expected that they would be getting… intimate on this trip, but now that they were actually here, the thought of it was daunting.
It didn’t help that Richie patted the duffle bag with a cocked eyebrow and twisted grin on his face.

Summary
When the front door opens, an odd, chemical scent punctures Eddie’s senses. It makes him want to gag, a small groan escaping him before he composes himself. He tries to focus on the face of the man now standing in the entryway of the home.

Summary
Eddie thinks back on all of his previous worries, wishing Richie would have just rejected him and saved him all of this pain. This – what Eddie is feeling now – is far worse than anything he had ever feared.
All he’s been able to do is ruminate over the last seven months. Seven months that began so blissfully. Eddie sometimes wonders if it was all a dream. The visceral agony in his chest is reminding him otherwise. He couldn’t possibly feel this badly had something so wonderful not been taken from him.

Summary
What if Eddie can’t survive another year at Sonia’s? If he has to stay with her, he doesn’t know if he can make it without his friends. Even if she doesn’t kill him, would life be worth surviving just to wake up every morning knowing she’s downstairs waiting? Will Eddie suffer every night needing to imagine her last dying breath in order for him to feel an ounce of relief?
Would Eddie just be better off ending his own life instead?
The idea plants itself in his head so jarringly, he can’t comprehend anything else. His foot presses down more firmly on the gas pedal until it’s practically on the floor. If he makes one wrong move, jerks the wheel just ever so slightly to the right, he may not have to worry about Sonia ever again.

Summary
Lately, Eddie hasn’t been sure what he needs. He can’t even figure out what’s wrong with him or what he’s fighting. It’s only now that he’s realizing the more he looks at the Christmas lights and the Hanukkah décor, the harder it’s becoming to ignore. The only thing he can think to do is to tell the people he loves most.

Summary
Richie didn’t say he was asking out a girl, and Stan couldn’t explain why he was so happy Eddie would be single. So Eddie figured he'd have a chance trying to gauge them again after the deed was done, once he broke it off with Myra. See how both of them reacted. See if Eddie was the person Richie wanted to ask out. See if Stan was so happy Eddie would be single so he could have a chance with Eddie himself.

Summary
“Where were you?”
“I—” Eddie freezes. In all the time since he woke up in the car, he hadn’t once thought about what he was doing before. Now that he is thinking about it… well, he can’t recall. Try as he might, the last thing he remembers is waking up with Richie curled around him this morning, kissing his neck and promising to make Eddie breakfast. “Just went for a drive.”

Summary
“Can’t you see how much happier Eddie is when you just let—”
“It’s wrong, Frank. You should have never encouraged this, this is what makes kids sick in the head.”
“It won’t just make Eddie happier, Sonia. Things will be safer this way. Don’t you not think so?”
“How? It wouldn’t be right, Frank.”
“Sonia, think about how much… harder it will be if we… if you force Eddie to live that way. You know how boys are…”****
Sonia let's a good thing happen for terrible reasons.
