Emily: I can’t stop crying. I’m trying to stop thinking but it doesn’t work. I don’t expect stuff to happen, You can’t control it, you can’t control anything. So, I’m at this stupid open day and everyone’s snotty and rude. Then I see someone. I’ve never even spoken to her at Roundview. It didn’t seem to matter, because then everything got really fun. And by the time we were on our way home, we were telling secrets. I wanted to move my hand. I wanted to move it so much. And then she moved hers. I wish I told Naomi how easy it is for me to love someone. We’re all lonely, and all we want is for someone to, you know, pay attention. And tell us we’re beautiful. And cute. And say that they want to —

Naomi: I’m sorry! I’m so sorry!

Emily: You ruined it! You don’t want anyone to care! I could be dead in a second. Everything’s so fragile. Didn’t you realize that? We were special!

Naomi: I was scared.

Emily: You’re always scared. Naomi: Emily! Emily!
