Summary
I tried and failed not to balk. “So what if they play it a ton? It’s a good song, like you just said. It’s a great song, actually-”
He laughed again. It was a kind laugh. “No, I’m kidding, Katie, I promise ya. You’re right. It’s great.”
“Well, I think so.” My face was getting a little warm, but it kind of felt like when Evie poked fun at me. “It’s maybe a little sad, I guess, but still great.”
“Yeah, I know what you mean. It’s kinda pretty, y’know?”
—
Through a series of parties, afternoons at the DX, and other encounters, Katie and Soda’s relationship starts to take shape.

Summary
The gas station was busy with the usual afternoon rush. Soda was manning the pumps, so Steve went to the register and rang up candy bars, pops, and whatever other after-school snacks the hoard of kids surrounding them wanted. Johnny grabbed a bottle of Pepsi and a stool, took a seat beside Steve, and watched.

The last time Steve and Soda see Johnny.

Tex McCormick Catches His First Fish by neufer

Summary
The spot they picked had plenty of room for the three of them. Pop started to show Tex what to do, while Mason moved to where his line wouldn’t get tangled with Tex’s. He didn’t pay much attention to them and just let his mind focus on nothing except for what he was doing.
But then after a few minutes, after Tex had successfully cast his line by himself three times, Pop picked up his pole and tackle box and the gunny sack to keep the fish in and started walking. And that sure caught Mason’s attention.
-
Tex's first time fishing doesn't go the way Mason thought it would, so he does what he can to make it better.

Summary
Steve knew Soda was trying to cheer him up, but he just sighed and looked back down at his arm. He thought it was stupid because he didn’t know why he’d gotten so upset in the first place. He should’ve been able to handle anything from his dad, no matter how cruel. He should’ve been used to it.
And he wasn’t sure that his dad would even be that mad about the tattoo. He started to convince himself that the old man wouldn’t even care, or maybe wouldn’t even notice. It didn’t matter. It was pointless.
-
Steve's in a bad mood after getting his tattoo, but being around his friends helps.

Summary
She told herself then at the time that it was to get back at Bryon, to get back at Tim, to get back at Tulsa and everyone in it.
But looking back, she suspects that maybe a part of her, just a small, little voice inside of her, didn’t wanna go it alone.
“Let’s send him a photo reel,” Angela said, finally looking at Mark. “He’ll be horrified.”

Or: After the events of That Was Then, This is Now, Angela decides she’s done with Tulsa. But she can’t make a clean break- whether she likes it or not, Mark Jennings has invited himself along for the ride.Bookmarked by neufer
