Summary
Something in this space between her and Kris has shifted— an old fracture testing the tension of new bone tissue. It's just seven days. One hundred and sixty-eight hours. Really, that's no time at all, but it hasn’t been just her and Kris since they were children, back before everything went wrong. Since then, there has always been some outlying third factor: Susie, or Dess, or the SOUL, or the distance between them.
They're inches away, hands close enough that she can feel the heat radiating off their skin, and she doesn't know how to close the space.
(or: one week and five dates where noelle tries to define what she and kris are.)

Summary
“So, about your, uh… girlfriend,” Monster Kid stammers. “Are you guys, like… fighting? She’s way scarier than usual…”
From across the schoolyard Susie shoves Snowy out of her way remorselessly, almost crushing the apple juice in her hand from the might of her grip. Everyone stares fearfully as she passes.
“I’m working on it,” Kris says.
Kris has never been witness to a functional relationship, but they'll fight tooth and nail to set their own example.

Summary
Susie was, admittedly, not the brightest bulb in the shed, but even she could notice it. The tension brewing in the air whenever they all hung out, electric, stifling, threatening to overflow. Ever-present in everything, from barbed quips to stolen, terse glances when they thought she wasn't looking. That playful banter, those private conversations. Kris and Noelle had been doing this constantly, trying to be secretive and failing miserably. It was clear to anyone who took a closer look than usual what was going on.
Kris and Noelle were in love.
In which Susie is a Kriselle shipper, completely oblivious to the fact that it's her both of the people she's shipping are after.

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
“Susie,” Kris’s voice deadpans from the other end of the line, “if you don’t call me back in five minutes, I’m killing myself.”
Noelle stares.
Susie coughs. “They, uh. They don’t mean that.”
Susie makes her first friend. Somehow, they're even more insane than she is.
