[It's the shirt that starts the cogs. Sure, he'd known Eddie Munson was here. He'd seen bits and pieces here and there, but Billy has other drug contacts now. Has other shit to worry about. He hadn't known Steve and Eddie were tight enough to swap shirts, even if they were shacked up together.
Three weeks doesn't feel like a long time, but man, they're still teenagers. He's still stupid. ] It's pizza, but it does the trick.
[He tries not to act like he feels stupid. Neutral, like the Metallica shirt is the kind of anomaly that means nothing, and that he doesn't feel at all jealous or weird about it. Just perfectly fucking normal. ] Can I come in, or do I have to eat this by myself and do three extra hours at the gym because you wouldn't share?
[Fuck. The question - that horrible little curiosity - feels answered now. He wishes Eddie had a car he could key or some shit, which isn't exactly fair, because Eddie had been cool. Weird, loud and fucking chatty, but he'd been cool any time Billy needed something fast.
This is karma, probably. He would feel humbled if his brain weren't bottoming out into the abyss. ]
