    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.

    Summary

    If asked, most would say that Jackie Taylor and Natalie Scatorccio have nothing more in common than their love of soccer and their shitty grades in math class.

    Jackie herself would insist on it.

    They keep finding themselves bonding in confined spaces anyway.

    Summary

    “Was it Lottie?” Jackie asks, voice stifled with something strange as she steps forward. Natalie shakes her head, pressing back against the wall with a grimace. “No, dude-”

    “No, was this-” Jackie raises a hand and brushes her thumb over the hickey living where her neck meets her shoulder. It flushes red under her touch. Natalie exhales something shaky and divine and it makes Jackie want to press into it more-

    But Natalie’s reaching up to catch her wrist.

    or

    Jackie tries to find the right guy and fails. Natalie and Jackie become friends, so Natalie is there to pick up the pieces. Shauna tries to teach Jackie the value of not hiding.
