Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Noah stays at the beach with Arianna and her friends for the rest of the winter break. One day, he returns from a visit with Nate to find Arianna cooking a recipe he taught her. Afterward, he tosses the football with Mason. Then, Payton shows up with her new baby, Deaton. Arianna avoids them because of her miscarriage.
That afternoon, Noah is hurt when Arianna tells him that she’s going to the gala with Chase. Noah confronts Chase afterward, insisting that Arianna is his and that they are happy together. Chase argues that he’s just trying to be supportive of Arianna. Shaking with frustration, Noah wonders if he should just give up.
Arianna’s mom drives her to her doctor’s appointment. On the way, they talk about what Arianna is going through. Arianna can’t imagine that her life has changed that much in a semester, but her mom suggests that maybe she’s the one who’s changed. At the doctor’s, Arianna goes inside alone. She tells her doctor how hard everything has been for her. She feels like she’s living in a fog and is just pretending to be okay for her family.
Back home, Arianna avoids Chase and goes down to the beach to get some air.
