    Summary

    Noelle Holiday has everything she could possibly need. Good grades, good friends, she even has time to sing at gigs occasionally. What else could she possibly want?

    Or at least... that's what she thinks until she manages to stumble into not one but two people she's trying to vie for the affections of. The only problem is that they're both somehow in relationships already!


    Kris doesn't really know who they are. At least their roommate's... fine, and their relationship's going somewhere. They're not quite sure where yet.

    Things get a lot more confusing when their childhood best friend suddenly reappears in their life.


    Susie is just trying to learn how to be a good partner. She's not really sure if she's any good at it, but she hasn't been broken up with yet so she's taking her wins!

    Things have gotten a little more complicated though, since this really cute girl keeps showing up at her work.

    Summary

    It feels stupid, throwing pebbles up at Kris’s window. Like something from some lame old rom-com.

    Maybe it is stupid, definitely is, but shitty music is blasting from the living room, and there’s no way Kris could sleep through that. And.

    Susie doesn’t, exactly, want to go home tonight.

    (Kris and Susie and a slight moment of respite.)

    Summary

    “It wasn’t a big deal or anything, if you’re worried about that. We were just kind of friend-kissing.”

    “Susie, I don’t know what friend-kissing is supposed to be,” Noelle said.

    “It’s like. You know,” Susie stumbled, “like if you need to figure out how to kiss or whatever and you got somebody to help you out—and that guy helps you get better at it, it’s like—you know!”

    “I-I do?”

    “Yeah,” she stressed, “you and Kris used to do it all the time!”


    Or, Kris decides flirting lessons aren’t all that bad of an idea. Consequences? What consequences?

    Summary

    Noelle Holiday is entering her final year of High School. It's been four years since her sister's death. She's on her way to the fanciest college her parents can get her into, to get a degree in...something. Her father's in the hospital. She can't stop letting people talk over her. And finally, Noelle is hopelessly in love with another girl, and it's only a matter of time until her mother finds out.

    Susie Sauria is entering her final year of High School. Susie knows that she's never going to be able to make anything of her life. She has one (1) friend, and is reasonably sure they'd ditch her if given the chance. She's teetering on the poverty line. Her father's a jackass. She wants to move out, but that would require her to have a place to go afterwards. And finally, Susie is stuck getting tutored by the smartest girl in her class, and it's only a matter of time until that too falls apart.

    At the moment, they couldn't be more different. But through heartache and hardship, they'll find themselves inexorably drawn together. A lot can happen in one school year, and this is one that they're sure to never forget.
