Fangirl Chapter 26 Summary

  • Cath's back in Professor Piper's office, where she's going to tell her professor once and for all that she just can't write the story.
  • However, that's not what she ends up saying; instead she ends up thanking Professor Piper for the second chance.
  • Professor Piper asks Cath if she knows what she wants to write about, and Cath says she can't come up with anything.
  • Professor Piper says Cath doesn't have to create her own worlds, like Gemma T. Leslie. Instead, she suggests that Cath write about a place she already knows.
  • They decide to meet again in a few weeks, when Cath's started writing something.
  • Back in Cath's room, Levi insists on carrying her laundry basket to his truck for her; they're about to drive to Omaha, where he'll meet her dad.
  • Cath insists on carrying it herself, and they have a discussion about feminism versus chivalry. Ultimately, Levi surrenders and lets Cath carry her own laundry.
  • On the drive home, Cath considers how someday she's going to kiss Levi's jawline, which she finds exceptionally foxy.
  • She's still bumming about the Professor Piper story, and Levi asks her what's wrong, so she spills it.
  • It's snowing, which turns into blizzarding, and they have to slow down.
  • Levi tells Cath he thinks she has the story inside her—after all, she can write for a million billion hours when it comes to Simon and Baz.
  • He also tells her she needs to write it to keep up her GPA and keep her scholarship.
  • She kisses his fingers and his cheek, which is a pretty bold move for our Cath.
