Summary
The first time it happens, Eddie thinks it must be a stress dream.
He has them often. He thinks it might be kind of psychopathic if he didn’t, if he wasn’t a little bit haunted by open chest wounds, the inexorable pumping of blood over his hands, the taste of mud. Buck going limp in his harness on the ladder. Buck, crumpled and delirious under the engine. Buck’s mouth full of blood.
What he means to say is god, God, would it really be so hard for Buck to think before he jumped into a harness, over a cliff, into a collapsing basement? Think of Christopher, think of everything he has to lose? Everything he’d be leaving behind, putting on the table when he pulls that trigger?
or, eddie keeps waking up buried in his own backyard.
