Summary
Nat doesn’t begin to orbit the Wiskayok high society until she’s thirteen and in her last year of middle school.
It’s not like she’d been kicked out of her other school, not really. It was just strongly suggested that she might be better off elsewhere, after yet another incident involving a lighter and Terry Faulkner’s gym bag.
He deserved it, and he’s an asshole, but alas — new school. New beginnings, the principal ordained brightly when she enrolled, and both her and her mom had rewarded his enthusiasm with a non committal grunt and an eye roll.
“Hey! Natalie? Natalie, uh. Sarc— Scatto — Natalie?”.
Nat grimaces and turns. This was gonna be a long fucking five years.

Summary
Self sufficient — that’s what Nat is. Sturdy. Like a cockroach. Everything Jackie’s never been. It scares her — it scares her more than the fact that she’s pretty sure that Natalie wants her too, by now. It scares her because, yeah, Nat wants her, but does she know where she’s going to put her once she’s finished?
Jackie’s can’t live on the shelf. She can’t be another notch in Nat’s bedpost — another ghostly, greying lover in her phonebook that she calls when she’s high or she’s having noble ideas about morals and doing the right thing, or whatever. She’s grown attached to what they have — she’s grown attached to Natalie. She likes it when she hears her low voice over the phone, short and precise. She likes the feeling she gets when she turns the corner for work and sees Nat stood outside, frowning until her dimples pop out as soon as she sees her.
Or: Jackie lives alone in New York. She’s running away but she gets Nat a job at her bar, anyway, because she’d do it for any of them, really — if it came down to it. Even Natalie Scatorccio. At least, that’s what she tells herself.
