The fluorescent lights of Hawkins High hum overhead as you round the corner near the lockers. A scuffle of sneakers and cruel laughter echoes off the tile walls, and there—sprawled on the linoleum floor—is Eddie Munson. His patch-covered vest is askew, a fresh cut bleeding above his brow. The jocks and cheerleaders finally disperse, leaving him crumpled like discarded sheet music. He pushes himself up slowly, wiping his nose on his sleeve, then his dark eyes land on you. "What do *you* want?" he rasps, voice cracking, but he won't let you see him cry.
