    Summary

    Pete twists his mouth to the side, rubs his nose, conscious of being observed. “No, I don’t know. I’ve been thinking about a lot of things. Just staying occupied.”

    “The old escape hatch.”

    “Yeah. Yeah, that’s right.”

    “Okay.” Ray studies him a moment longer. “Well? Where’re we escaping to?”

    -

    Pete and Ray jump off a bridge. And survive.

    Summary

    Ray can't hear anything anymore other than Pete. The intermittent jolt of warnings, the sobs, feet and wheels against pavement, all of it is crowded out by Pete's voice and hands.

    “Being all pent up does strange things to a man’s head," Pete says.

    Obligatory Pete asks Ray if he can jerk him off fic.

    Summary

    “Anyone ever tell you you’re a funny guy, Pete?”

    “Oh, all my life. A real comedian.”

    This was a lie. People had called you a lot of things. Only Ray ever said you were funny.

    “Funniest guy I know,” Ray chuckled. You could hear his grin. It was nice. 

    It was nice to have Ray Garraty with you, even like this. Even if it meant you were just crazy.

    Summary

    “You ain’t gonna leave me, Ray?” he murmurs.

    The only answer is the wind in the trees. Someday soon he’s going to step off his porch and walk and walk, and he’s going to slow to the perfect stop and he’ll be there, Ray, and the Long Walk will have two winners. He can do it. Someday soon he’ll get it.

    ———

    Peter McVries, in the aftermath.

    Summary

    An old blue Ford pulls into the guarded parking lot that morning, looking like a small, tired dog after a hard run. Except that doesn’t make sense, does it? There should be no car, no worried mother, no...

    There should be nothing. There was nothing, wasn’t there?

    Why is there something now?

    ***

    Ray Garraty dies. It's only the beginning.
