    Summary

    Penny never saw Skip Wescott after the summer she turned ten. She left him behind — closed the door on that particular monster.

    Spider girl met him six years later.

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    “Tony once said that you’d kill for me.”

    Natasha gave her a look she couldn’t quite interpret. Then she shrugged. “I’ve killed for far worse reasons.”

    Penny thought about death — how it lingered on your body like sex. And she knew that if Skip were to die, she wouldn’t be the only one carrying his death.

    She thought about guilt. Thought about those other girls hearing he was dead. Their shoulders would slump in relief, and then their shoulders would curl forward with the guilt of it.

    She thought about her own shoulders at that age — how they had shrunk in on themselves.
