   Summary

   It's been nearly ten years since Veronica left Sherwood Ohio and all of it's bad memories behind. Her life isn't perfect, but it's a life she didn't think she'd ever live to see and isn't about to complain. But when a familiar face suddenly comes back into her life and she can't hide the truth, how will she handle the fallout? And how is she going to manage having Heather Chandler and her enigmatic ways thrust back into her life?

    

   A super slow burn Chansaw fic with a healthy dose of ABBA throughout, because who doesn't love ABBA? (spoilers, it's Veronica)
