In Chapter 1: Freshmen Day he is mentioned by teachers in the Gym in Group 8.

In Chapter 5: The Lunch Bunch, he is first seen walking meeting up with Jeffrey, Hunter, and Heather during Lunch along with Cody, Daniel, and Douglas. After Heather asks them if them transferring to another Elementary School and being in separate Middle Schools is the reason why they haven't met, and he says she is correct. He later listens to the story of how Jeffrey and Hunter met.

In Chapter 6: The Upper-classmen, he is seen walking up to Jeffrey, Daniel, Alex, and Hunter with his sister Andrea. He tries to introduce her to the group, but he fails to do so when they tell him they already met her when they went to Baker Prairie together.

In Chapter 10: Trouble Makers, he is seen in Mrs. Sesser's Class Room talking to his sister, Cody, Douglas, Jack, and Willie until a conflict between Mrs. Sesser and Willie breaks out. He is later seen in the Principal's Office telling the Principal it's Willie's fault for starting the conflict and Mrs. Sesser should not be fired.

In Chapter 11: Getting My Way, he is seen in Mrs. Sesser's Room after it is revealed that she has lost her job due to mishaps with Willie. Willie denies the mishaps and Eric tells him he's an idiot before his sister tells him Willie did nothing wrong. He is then seen after school in the Cafeteria with them when they talk about celebrating Mrs. Sesser getting fired. He tells them they're going too far with this and they ignore him. They then walk off to egg Mrs. Sesser's house and he says to himself that it'll get ugly real quick.

In Chapter 15: Practice Makes Perfect, he is seen after school talking with Dawn, Andrea, and Daniel. They're in utter shock while they see Dawn walking away and then holding hands with Willie as they leave the school.

In Chapter 17: Level Up!, he is seen at the end of the chapter, standing with Jeffrey, Hunter, Daniel, and Andrea while Jeffrey and Hunter talk to him about their fan-made MySims game that they've created. He later walks up to Willie and Dawn and is surprised after he overhears them admit to his sister that they were using the idea of them dating as a front to mess with her.

In Chapter 19: Storytime (Part 2), he is seen for a brief moment, walking up to Jeffrey after Hunter walks away from them. Jeffrey is concerned that Hunter is acting a little weird, but Eric reassures him that it's probably nothing and that he's only going through a phase or something. He then tells Jeffrey to call Hunter after school just to be sure what's really happening.
