Chapter 9 Summary: “Even Hell Has its Factions”

At the party the next day, Grace tries to fit in, but every group seems forbidden. They’re all in cliques that don’t mix, from a super muscular group to another dressed in all black tones with rich jewelry. Instead, Grace focuses on the black velvet decor, candlelight, and food. Flint waves to Grace then sticks out his tongue at her, causing her to laugh. Macy starts to tell her something about Flint and then coughs, ending her words.

Macy leads Grace over to her group of delicate people in long, flowing dresses, jewelry, and gemstones in their hair. Grace believes everyone is looking at her with “scorn and suspicion” (76), but Macy’s friends hug her and treat her nicely. Macy suddenly takes Grace to get a drink when one of her friends starts complaining that her dad “Foster brought a—” to the school (79). When Grace asks about the giant sports thermoses, Macy states they’re filled with water in case a pipe breaks. Grace is suspicious, but Macy distracts her by introducing her to Cam. He’s sweet and cute and asks Grace questions about her life. When Macy and Cam start giggling and kissing, Grace walks away.
