    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

    “And the Major?” Mom asks stiffly.

    “Asked me how my wish was treatin’ me,” Pete whispers. “Asked me if I regretted it.”

    Ray still wants the Major dead. Maybe even more than he used to. Ray would kill him with his bare hands if he could — but they’re too clumsy and his grip is too loose to do any real damage. That’s what the Major means, asking Pete if he regrets saving Ray. Do you still like your toy, now that it’s broken? Don’t you wish you’d left it on the ground with the strings cut?

    “. . . and?”

    When Pete smiles at him, it’s like the sun coming out. “Only regret is I didn’t kiss you sooner.”

    Months after the Walk, months of recovery, and Ray makes dessert to celebrate Pete coming home. Things spiral from there.
