Summary
Why did his body bring him here? What did it think he was going to do? He knows, of course. Even if he doesn't want to admit it. That if he hadn't stopped himself, he would've walked right up and knocked on their door, soaked and cold from the rain, like a pathetic stray dog on their doorstep, and begged them, please, tell me, why don’t you like me anymore?
Peter is obsessive. He's not the only one.

Summary

Summary
He could go home tomorrow and pretend this never happened. Invite Lucas and Max and Dustin over, play cards at the dining table and drink eggnog. None of them even know he's here.
But he’d look at the empty seat beside him, over and over, a tongue poking at the gap where a tooth used to be. But he’d toss and turn all night, not letting her slip from his mind in the hopes that she’d at least appear in his dreams.
But his heart pounds, insistent, as he stumbles around the town, like it knows something.
Four years ago, El vanished with the Upside Down. Now, Mike's heart pulls him to Iceland, desperate to find her.

Summary
Pope can see his mother study him.
“You two boys look out for each other, don’t you?” she says, and she looks like she’s comforted by the thought. Pope, on the other hand, is not, because this feels like it could head into dangerous territory very quickly.
(or, Pope is pining, JJ is hurt, and they're both kind of stupid).

Summary
The cold—an absolute shock to the system, like a thousand little sewing needles pricking her skin—reverberates now, in the present, when the WTAE Breaking News notification hits her phone:

Summary
He stands to the side and watches Kiara and Pope hugging their parents and sobbing, knowing that there’s no way in hell his father’s coming for him and even if he did there’s no way in hell JJ would want to hug him. He sees Kiara’s face crumple and her chest heave with silent tears as she desperately grabs onto her mom, and he feels nothing. He sees Pope bury his face into his dad’s shoulder, fingers gripping his shirt so tightly it almost rips, and he feels nothing. The lights around him flash and he can distantly hear the sound of people consoling one another and shouting out orders, but the noise just washes over him and he feels nothing.
When you're young and vulnerable and an idiot, dealing with the death of your best friend is hard, especially when your best friend turns out to be not so dead. The Pogues try to deal with John B and Sarah's death and navigate what this means for the group and for each other.

Summary
Sometimes, Eddie caught Richie staring. More often than not, he would make a face or stick out his tongue, and Richie would return it, exaggerated and playful. But other times, Eddie stared back. Richie could feel a blush rising in his face as Eddie held his gaze, level and calm, not curious or judgmental, simply looking. When that happened, Richie would always be the one to look away. He’d quickly turn to another one of their friends and crack a joke, which would make everyone groan or laugh or tell him to shut up, and it would take his mind off Eddie and the way his face got pink when he was outside for too long.
or: five summers that richie and eddie spend together.
