    Summary

    Ryan says, “We were out at this diner type place. And I think he saw his ex there, like—” he lowers his voice like Shane’s there to hear him, “—his abusive ex.”

    Scott stills. “His—?”

    Ryan nods nervously, looking to him for confirmation. They stand there, hovering, in the shadowed entryway.

    “His abusive ex,” Scott intones.

    Or,

    Shane moved across the country to escape his past — meeting Ryan Bergara and becoming a ghost hunter were just unforeseen benefits. Besides being his straight, emotionally unavailable colleague, Ryan is the only person in Shane’s life who hasn’t met Trevor. Telling him is a weight off Shane’s shoulders; It doesn’t hurt that Ryan actually believes him.

    Then they spend Thanksgiving in Schaumburg and it all unravels.

    It doesn’t matter, because regardless of how it starts, this is how Shane becomes aware of it.

    Summary

    It happens sometimes— he’s seen it before— the way they get caught in loops, walking through motions that remind him they were human once. That to a less hardened person might invoke some kind of sympathy. Sympathy will only get you killed these days. Still, Shane hates when it's kids. At least none of them seem new enough to be Screechers. He can’t fucking stand Screechers. They’re significantly faster and stronger, bodies more animated in their relentless quest for something with fresh blood and a heartbeat.

    “Fuck,” he grits out between clenched teeth before reaching to unholster his weapon. The nails at the tip of the bat are rusted from wear and the numerous bodily fluids it’s come into contact with but it regularly gets the job done. His fingers wrap familiarly around the grip tape and he’s contemplating the best place to start cleaning up when an ear piercing shriek reverberates through the still air. It’s coming from the direction of the house Sara and Ryan are currently scavenging. “God fucking damn it!”

    Summary

    “He didn’t say yes, but he didn’t really say no, mom,” Ryan explained for the fifth time. He bit his lip, wondering if he should mention catching Shane lying to him.

    “Well, what did you ask him?” Ryan blushed.

    “‘Would you like to go get dinner with me’” he muttered into the phone, and he heard his mom sigh with disappointment on the other end of the line.

    “Ryan.”

    “I know, mom,” Ryan laughed a little pathetically.

    Ryan wants to ask Shane out and confess his feelings, but he fails several times to get it out and there’s a couple of things he gets... hung up on.
