    Summary

    “You gonna sing tonight?”

    Nat scoffs. “No.”

    “C’mon, it’s fun.”

    “I’ll stick to writing songs and not singing them.”

    “Come on,” Lottie says, leaning over to nudge Nat’s shoulder. “Singing is a great way to let out pent up feelings.”

    Nat nods, watching Van gesture towards the audience of tables filled with other drunk people cheering and singing along, Tai among them, watching with obvious heart eyes.

     

    That’s exactly what I’m afraid of.

     

    “I’m good.”

    Lottie puts her glass down on the table, empty. “Suit yourself.”

    Summary

    Nat turns to look at her again, face pinched in righteous anger. “If you didn’t want to be here, you didn't need to come, Lottie.”

    Lottie runs a hand through her hair, fingers clenching at her roots. “You don’t fucking get it, do you? I want to help you, Nat.”

    “You want to help me?” Something desperate, a moment of possession, flashes across Nat's face at Lottie’s words. “If you want to help me,” Nat growls, leaning in close enough to press against the bars, “then get me the hell out of Wiskayok.”'

    Summary

    The lights are bright and a pure, dazzling white; Jackie’s voice drips honey; the beat thumps on, light drum hits and hi-hats; her midriff is smooth and visible above the belt loops of her low-waisted blue jeans; the young girls in the crowd squeal as she sways innocently in front of them; and Shauna is one bass strum away from snapping.

    But in Nat’s darkened pupils, recognition lingers, long, defiant and impossibly persistent:
    “I know that’s not the kind of music you want to make.”

    Or:

    It’s 2005, and Honey Atomic are going through a bit of a sophomore slump. Golden girls who charmed the world with innocence and bubblegum are waning in a market that wants edge.

    And worse have it, their bassist Shauna is seriously crashing out, harboring secrets and resentment from her childhood best friend, and the band’s lead singer, Jackie, and drummer Taissa, and masses of fans who suddenly seem like they would really care to know.

    That’s until she meets Nat, lead singer and guitarist of a new feminist punk band that makes every manager in the pop world cry.

    Nat doesn’t pretend she’s not crashing out. And Shauna can't stop looking at her.

    Summary

    Nat’s memories are blurry from this point onwards, only the weight of Ben, Mari, the frog scientist and the guide in her stomach, but they're alive, they're out, and that's all that matters. 

    Lottie hadn't thought of it that way. 

    Lottie had wanted to stay, had kicked and screamed at the hands that tried to pull her away. She fought so hard to stay that it took Nat dragging her into one of the huts and holding her cheeks in one place as she pleaded, begging Nat to leave her behind. 

    “I won’t be well. I won’t be me. The me that was made out here. They'll send me away. I'll be skin and bones. Please, Nat. Don’t make me.”

    “None of us is going to be the same. You won’t be you, but you won’t be alone. Lottie, I promise. You’ll never be alone ever again.”
