    Summary

    If you told ten-year-old Natalie Scatorccio that she’d end up being best friends to the point of regular hangouts with Laura Lee and Lottie fucking Matthews, she’d laugh in your face. No, seriously. The Jehovah’s Witness? The prissy, rich, stuck-up, filthy fucking rich girl?

    If you told ten-year-old Natalie Scatorccio that she’d end up being best friends with Van Palmer, she’d probably look at you funny. Not because she can’t see that happening, but because that is her best friend, and you should probably go talk to five-year-old Natalie Scatorccio instead.

    If you told ten-year-old Natalie Scatorccio that she'd end up having a big, fat, lesbian crush on, once again, Lottie fucking Matthews, and that she'd have to either get over her or get with her in two months, she'd probably pass away on the spot.

    or: it’s the summer before college. nat and lottie refuse to talk or think about their evident feelings for one another, van thinks she might explode, and laura lee is probably a lesbian, but she has to be a counselor at bible camp so she doesn't really care about that right now.

    Summary

    Nat takes a chance to look around again, distracted by the thought of the missing Spider-woman in the space. Did she just up and leave while Nat’s suspended up here and, ugh, technically helpless?

    Nothing looks remarkably red and blue from where she hangs, and Nat’s about to accept her fate now—dead at eighteen, Rutgers freshman, soccer playing time of zero—when she feels someone else’s touch wrap around her limbs, and thank God it’s not another slimy tentacle.

    Nat starts seeing New Jersey's Spider-woman a little too many more times than she'd like.

    Summary

    “Oh, fine.” Natalie replied. “A little warm for fur, isn’t it?”

    “It’s faux. Don’t get any ideas about red paint.”

    “Hm. Okay.” Natalie nodded, then sucked in a breath. “So, you’re a lesbian, though?”

    Lottie straightened and shut the fridge door, then turned back to Natalie. She had a bottle of water in her hand. “Don’t be reductive, Nat, I could be bisexual.”

    “…are you bisexual?”

    Lottie looked at her like she was stupid. “No, I’m a lesbian.”

    Or,

    A year after moving in with Lottie, Natalie makes a discovery about her roommate that sets off a chain reaction of catastrophic proportions.

    Summary

    “You know that song, that’s like ‘you’ve got a fast car, I want a ticket to anywhere, maybe we can make a deal?” Jackie says quietly when Nat returns to the porch.
    “You mean the song called: Fast Car?” Nat follows her gaze to the truck. The last piece of her old man, and the only one really worth keeping.
    She returns to look at Jackie, noticing the gym bag stuffed with clothes and cash.
    “You’re not serious,” Nat scoffs with a laugh.
    “Look, I don’t know about you, but I’m not ready to throw in the towel and die in fucking Wiskayok, New Jersey.”

    --

    Follows roughly 10 years of one Natalie Scatorccio and one Jacqueline Taylor cohabitating in a Chelsea apartment while they learn how to be adults.

    Summary

    Lottie and Nat never really talked in school, nothing beyond polite exchanges during soccer practice.

    Lottie seems untouchable, polite, popular, and beautiful. But beneath the perfection she was raised to hide every crack, taught that love is conditional and appearances are everything.

    Nat, on the other hand, knows all too well what it’s like to be surrounded by ugliness. Her childhood was a mess of shouting matches and slammed doors. She’s sharp, sarcastic, and more fragile than she lets on.

    With no big vacation plans or social calendars, Natalie spends her days smoking, cleaning swimming pools, and trying not to think too much about the future she doesn’t believe she has. Lottie stays in town, left alone once again.

    Over shared cigarettes, late-night drives, and comfort afternoons that feel like forever, they accidentally fall into something that feels too big, too beautiful, and far too temporary.
