   Summary

   He’s spiralling again. The cigarette has burned down to the filter, and Eddie has the uncanny urge to fucking eat it. Swallow down the toxic little stub; poison himself just a little bit more than he already is.

   He’s been in this mood for weeks, ever since the Homecoming game when he’d had to watch Hawkins High’s King and Queen reach their absolute peak All American Dreaminess. The Tigers had won, of course, but Eddie wasn’t there to see it. He’d lasted all of about 20 minutes watching Chrissy’s perky ponytail bouncing around as she cheered her heart out for her golden boy with his blue eyes and his cover-of-Bop hair and his fucking letterman jacket.
