Author's Note:

... Dear Calvina

Can you believe that this has been on my hard drive since February..? Er, well, since you've betaed for me before you probably can ;) The basic idea for this story has been nesting at the back of my mind every since that first time you played me the song, but since then I also went to a Lucinda Williams concert and heard her play the lovely Right in Time, and Skuf showed us that wonderful Stand By Me vid - so by now I guess this really qualifies as a multi-fandom fic. Anyway, I hope you enjoy it <3

Thank you so much, isis, for betaing!

Summary: During their first ever disagreement, Chris knocked Jodie to the ground with a fist to the face. It was surprise more than anything that made Jodie's knees buckle and sat her down hard on the rough school yard asphalt.

... Chris kissed her for the first time four months later, out behind the birches where the teachers couldn't see them.
