It’s December, and Caitlin spends most of her time at Corinna’s if she’s not at photography class or school. Caitlin finds Corinna a soothing presence and feels truly seen and appreciated by her. Caitlin notes their similarities, both dating boys who aren’t the typical norm for their community. Caitlin also admires the silver bangles that Corinna wears, each one a gift for a year of their relationship.
At home, Caitlin’s mother is still writing to Cass each week and buying dolls off of the QVC channel. Cass sometimes calls the house around dinnertime, remaining silent on the line. In photography class, Caitlin, her mother, and Boo work on taking better pictures, and Caitlin feels proud of the first portrait she takes. Cheerleading continues to be a source of tension for Caitlin, since she isn’t as committed to it and would rather be smoking with Corinna. Caitlin spends most of the rest of her time with Rogerson, and feels “pulled in all directions” (129).
Before the Winter Athletic Ceremony, Caitlin smokes with Corinna, and knows she needs to leave soon to be in time. Caitlin sees Cass on TV, feeling “a slow, creeping chill crawl up the back of [her] neck” (131).
