NINA MONTGOMERY is too good for drugs. Too clean, too pristine, too much of a Sunnyvaler to even try. Which was ironic, because her boyfriend rarely stayed away from them.

Timothy Kalivoda has had a few too many bad experiences with illegal drugs for the young age of 17. Nina handled them and brought her boyfriend back to earth every time, and she was yet to leave his side. She made excuses, he made promises and they got on with their relationship like nothing ever happened. But when he spiraled again or mixed with the wrong people for even just one night, it would happen all over again. Timothy had never done so much that would put him in a dangerous physical state, but he had gotten high enough on pills and crack that Nina worried it wouldn't be long until he did.

KATE SCHMIDT likes drugs too. But not how Timothy does. Never like Timothy does. She kept it small, a business of sorts, just to keep her spirits high, and her time at high school the best it could possibly be before the time runs out.

And there's a reason as to why Kate doesn't do drugs like Timothy. A one-sided lovesick reason as to why Kate sticks to the more playful side of drugs, rather than the extremes of ketamine and ecstasy. And she can assure you, it has absolutely nothing, no way, to do with Nina Montgomery and her shitshow of a boyfriend.

Kate would be lying of course, because for as long as she can remember, she has been desperately in love with Nina ─ her best friend's, brother's girlfriend. And because she's been so infatuated with the girl since the eighth grade, Kate strongly believes that Nina can do so much better. Of course, she'd never tell Simon (Tim's brother and her best friend) this ─ although Kate can't be certain that he wouldn't agree. But it's what she thought. Nina needed someone that didn't stress her out to the point she couldn't sleep properly at night unless she knew Timothy was at home with his parents. To the point where her grades had dropped so much because she was spending all of her time with her very needy, drug-addicted boyfriend. It was a travesty that Timothy hadn't been locked up yet. To Kate, it was a travesty at least.

AND SO NO ONE was more pleased to hear that Timothy Kalivoda had officially OD'd than Kate Schmidt was. Maybe she would like that to be worded differently? Of course, it was awful that the boy was declared legally dead for two whole minutes, but he lived and it meant that Nina was finally done with him. She couldn't deal with the stresses of visiting him in hospital, or the frightful feelings she felt for those two minutes when Nina believed her first ever love was actually dead. Like as dead as a dodo. Unreachable. Ceasing to exist. So she broke it off. Told Timothy it was all getting too much. And Kate had never been happier.

Nina was heartbroken of course. She truly did love Timothy and she had to keep constantly telling herself "This is what's best" and "He understands" and "It just wasn't meant to be" just to keep her sane. She knew the tears would all be dried out eventually, but it still hurt to let him go.

On the other side of the feelings spectrum, Kate Schmidt was lit up with the joyous thought that Nina Montgomery would finally get the love and appreciation that she deserves. All Kate had to do now was get Nina to notice her. Which hadn't happened before. For all Nina knew, Kate Schmidt was just one of her boyfriend's (wait, no, EX-boyfriend), brother's friends. They attended different schools, lived very different lives, in two very different sides of town. It was a real wonder how Nina and Timothy got together in the first place. But if they could, there's is hope that Kate can too.

Kate just needs to pretend she's broken-hearted too, and then maybe Nina will turn to her for comfort, and it's just a smooth-sailing relationship development train from there!

WRONG! Insert demon town and three dead serial killers into the mix and that might just be a little difficult . . .

─ i really don't like this summary like is so messy help-

─ i have nearly no notes for this fic, honestly and i left the above blank because i think it would be cool for you to develop nina as a character yourself :)

─ you can kill kate, or not, i don't mind. but make it as sad as hell if you do

─ nina knows of kate, like she's heard simon mention her a few times, and because they go to different schools, i imagine that they talk for the first time officially at heather's vigil, where kate tells nina that "her boyfriend just broke up with her too" with hopes that they can bond over their shared broken hearts. but that's a lie, and is just something kate made up because she wants nina to feel like she's not alone

─ simon and nina have a good relationship!!

─ nina gets involved with all the sarah-fier-serial-killer-deena-and-sam stuff because of both kate and simon

QUOTES ──
❛ can someone please enlighten me as to why i've been dragged into this god-awful, horror film worthy of a mess?! ❜
