Fangirl

Cath and Nick chat about their upcoming assignment, which involves writing a story with an unreliable narrator. Cath wrote hers from Baz’s point of view; she thinks about telling Nick about her fanfic but does not. They still collaborate on writing, and Cath enjoys spending time with him.

Wren and Courtney start a new diet called the “Skinny Bitch” diet so they can be “skinny bitches on the weekdays” and “drunk bitches on the weekend” (85), which worries Cath. Wren teases her about her library “dates” with Nick, which Cath does not want to talk about, even though since her breakup, she has been more interested in both Nick and Levi. Cath tries to get Wren to visit their father. Wren claims she has to study, but Courtney says there is a football game and they do not have to be sober until Monday.

Before her drive to Omaha to visit her father, Cath goes to downtown Lincoln, hoping to catch Levi at the Starbucks he works at. He insists on making her a special drink of his own creation.

At home, her father is working on an advertising pitch for a company named Gravioli in the dark.
