Part 2: “Jack”

Part 2, Chapter 10 Summary

Alexis and Jack meet at a coffeehouse. Alexis is angry that he has not seen her in three weeks. Jack points out that they had broken up when Finn died, though they were still sleeping together. Alexis accuses him of leaving her alone with her grief. He realizes as she is speaking that she’s repeating things Sylvie has accused Alexis of. Jack calls her out for having a gathering with all her friends directly after Finn died rather than being with Sylvie and taking care of her. She makes excuses, but Finn tells her she is immature and leaves.

Part 2, Chapter 11 Summary

In an attempt to reassure his parents that he is okay, Jack goes to a party in St. Charles. When he arrives, everyone avoids him or whispers about him. They keep repeating that college will be a “fresh start.” He leaves the party, but the teammate who invited him, Kyle, catches up with him and apologizes for the guests’ strange behavior. Kyle says that seeing Jack probably reminds them of Finn and that they have realized that if a tragedy could happen to Finn, then it could happen to anyone.
