Summary
But losing Bombay wasn’t the only thing gnawing at him. If that had been the end of it, maybe Charlie could’ve found a way to deal with the change. Maybe he could’ve coped with Bombay leaving, telling himself they were growing up, that things changed, that he had to move forward. But losing Adam Banks? That was a whole different kind of pain.
OR:
"Charlie lost two of the best and most important people in his life when he joined the Warriors."

Summary
Eddie can’t move. Like this, Buck is illuminated by the sunlight streaming through the window; dust motes shimmering around his head, his hair haloed in gold. Beautiful, Eddie thinks. And to his surprise, he doesn’t feel any sort of guilt about doing so.
Except — he should. Because Buck is dating Tommy, and he’s happy, and Eddie would rather go to his grave repressed and miserable than ever take away from Buck’s happiness.
Or: Eddie starts to untangle his complicated feelings about himself, and Buck. Mainly Buck.

Summary
Casey Caliari turns eighteen in March, and so far, in his seventeen years, nine months, and eleven days of living, he knows exactly three things to be the absolute truth in the universe:
1. Plugging his nose and breathing through his mouth will instantly pop his ears after swimming practice.
2. His hair is red. Not strawberry blonde, not light, golden brown, red. According to his mother, it is completely owed to her Irish genes – they’re almost definitely the reason for his pale skin, smattering of freckles, soft green eyes, and tendency to sunburn, too. He inherited neither his half-Italian father’s dark hair, nor his tan complexion, nor his brown eyes, nor his lack of weakness to the sunlight.
3. Kindness and politeness are the key to everything good in the universe.So, when his mom calls him to inform Casey that their flight to retrieve him from Barton has been promptly canceled as soon as they booked it, he forces himself to take it in stride, breathing a sigh as he makes his lonely way to where he’s seen all the other “Holdovers” go.

Summary
“So, you know in horror movies when the girl’s like: “Oh my god, there’s something in the basement! Let me just run down there in my underwear and see what’s going on in the dark!” and you’re like “What is your problem? Call the police.” and she’s like “Okay!” but it’s too late, because she’s already getting murdered? Well, my story’s kind of like that.”
