Summary
Damon talks too much. Bonnie gets annoyed. Elena thinks it's hilarious and adorable.
"You know what Damon your right, your right," Elena said, working hard to fight down her laughter and school her face into a serious expression. "You know what Bonnie should do? She should take a walk in the middle of the night down an empty road and wait until she runs across a man lying in the middle of the road who's there laying in wait to murder someone and BOOM love of her life found. Easy."

Summary
“Yeah,” Steve sighs. “I’m gonna miss you, too, Dustin. Hey, promise you won’t forget about good old Steve Harrington when you make a bunch of new, smart friends?”
Steve brings his hand to grip the base of Dustin’s neck. He knows he sounds pathetic, but it covers what he really wants to say, which is “don’t leave me behind.”
Dustin catches Steve’s gaze and holds it. “You’re my best friend. You know that nothing could ever change that.”
Steve can’t seem to tear his eyes away from Dustin’s. The weight of everything they went through in the last five years hangs in the air. There’s too much to say and nothing to say that they don’t already know.
--
Set in the year after Dustin graduates high school and heads to college, Steve and Dustin struggle to navigate their relationship as it changes in ways that neither of them anticipated, especially now that the threat of the Upside Down is no longer an excuse to keep them together.
It’s a story told through phone calls, postcards, holidays at home, road trips, and Lord of the Rings references. It’s a story of learning what to let go of, what to hold onto and how to find a path forward. Mostly, it’s a story about love.

Summary
Sequel to "With a Friend in the Dark.”
It's been weeks since Buck's cancer diagnosis, and in most ways, things are looking up. The idea of resuming chemo still frightens him, but not nearly as much as it did last time. This time, he has people on his side. But Buck is about to learn that treatment is just the first challenge. Money troubles, identity crises, learning what real love means for the first time at twenty-seven... who knew cancer would be so complicated?
Eddie, meanwhile, is still wrestling with his guilt and anger over how he handled things the first time. Being there for Buck? That's a given. Figuring out what it means to be Buck's friend through his cancer treatments, in the wake of all that's happened between them? That seems a lot trickier. Even more so when Eddie starts to realize that anger and guilt might not be the only feelings he's having.
