    Summary

    It didn't have to be you who helped her, or fed her, or stayed with her. In fact it probably shouldn't have been, given your promise, and the gaping absence that faithfully awaited you at the story's end – frankly, your mom's household finances couldn't tolerate more than a few days' worth of extra meals. You were just lucky – or, that's the wrong word; really, you were convenient, courtesy of your part in the play, and the sad little vestigial heart inside you that soaked in her kindness like it was the sun. Anyone might've; could've; should've.

    But, just for a little while, you had something that was just yours.

    -

    In which Kris tries, and fails, to admit they've lost already.

    Summary

    Noelle never thought of herself as someone that could get cheated on. And Susie is such a good girlfriend. She says I love you, she says, you’re so pretty, she steals Noelle ice cream and doesn’t let her pay the vendor back. And maybe that’s why it took Noelle so long to notice.
