Summary
Benny's envied what Ethan has with Sarah for the longest time. But now, two things have happened to Benny for the first time this weekend. One: he let a vampire feed off him. Two: A boy kissed his cheek and it made him think a little too hard about what it meant.
Worst of all for him; both instances were Rory.

Or, a chance encounter with his vampiric best friend the summer before they all go to college causes years of built-up angst and self-actualization to surface.

Summary
Ray had sworn he'd been a dead man. His ticket had gotten punched. Three warnings to forty-seven, and he was more than sure that he'd die. He was ready to give it all up for Pete. He trusted him with his idea in taking out the Major. And when Pete was ready to give his own life up to make sure Ray's idea happened, he knew he had to do the same.
He falls unconscious due to his gun shot wounds, believing that he has succumbed to his injuries. Despite that, Ray finds himself waking in an unfamiliar room and a hazy memory of what had happened once the Walk had ended. The only thing he's sure of? He loves Pete - that wouldn't change. But there was no reason he should be alive, not if Pete was the winner.
Not until he finds out that Pete's one wish was his life.

Summary
Philip has started to think that 90% of the important moments of his life have happened in the past few months. Meeting the love of his life, witnessing a triple homicide, almost losing Lukas, and then losing his mother. His weekly therapy sessions are helping, but not nearly enough.
It piles up. Philip wants to believe he's in good hands now — that he's content in the aftermath of what shreds of his confidence he's left to pick up. But he isn't. No matter how much he lies to Lukas, to Helen and Gabe.
And the week after Lukas kisses him at the party, he crumbles even further.

Summary
“I usually get this done at the salon, go into the city..,” Lukas trails off as he takes a seat on the closed-lid toilet, and Philip starts to pop open the box of bleach.
“Okay, so why am I doing this?” He asks, glaring down at Lukas all confused.
“Because we’re in a relationship so we do things together?”
Philip squints in mock anger.

Or, Lukas gets Philip to touch up his dark roots.
