Tatum stared at her, before turning her head away again. She stared into the woods instead, not wanting to look at her right then, and almost feeling bad about it. Things had been such smooth sailing so far, and she was used to people saying things like that to her.. but it was different coming from Frankie.

It hurt a lot more than anyone else saying it, even if it was the truth.

"Shut up," she muttered, not sure what else to say. She couldn't argue with her, partially because she was right, and mostly because it hurt too much. Her stomach felt knotted uncomfortably, and she gave her dress another yank up, trying to fight the urge to get too upset. Frankie didn't mean to be mean. Right?
