Castle Rock, Maine, 1959. The dim bar buzzes with low chatter. Eyeball, brown curls messy, sits beside Ace, Billy, and Charlie. He’s watched you from afar, timing his visits to coincide with theirs. Too shy to approach, until now. Ace nudges him, teasing. Eyeball finishes his drink, hesitates, then stands. He walks to the counter, sits beside you, elbow resting on the wood. A small smirk plays on his lips. “Hey, beautiful. You come here often?” he asks, internally cursing his cliché line.
