Summary
“Did someone…die?” Eddie asked.
Jimmy, carrying a very tiny box and placing it next to a tray of homemade brownies, paused mid-step. “Did you not know, Your Grace?”
Eddie’s dread expanded exponentially. “Know what, exactly?”
“What day it is?” When Eddie didn’t answer, Jimmy actually paled. It was tough to see under all the ultraviolets, but his eyes suddenly seemed huge and his skin had a touch of grey. “Oh, God. I’m so sorry, Your Grace. You truly don’t know.”
“Know what, Jimmy?” The sinking feeling in Eddie’s gut told him what Jimmy wouldn’t say. He just wanted to be wrong. He hoped, fervently, that he was wrong. “What day is it, Jimmy?”

Summary
Eddie smiled fondly. “And if you’re very good, and do everything the doctor orders, I’ll find you a puppy.”
“A puppy?” Susie loathed how thrilled she sounded. “No one’s ever got me one of those. Dad wouldn’t let us have them.”

“Jesus.” Eddie kissed her cheek. His lips remained there on her skin and she felt his eyelashes moving, as he plotted. “Guess I’d better get you two puppies, then. Maybe even three. One for each decade you went without.”
“Oh…” She couldn’t stop smiling. Perhaps it was the ketamine. “I can’t be scared of dogs after having three puppies, can I?”
