Chapter 552: Chapter 552 Cracks

Back to Kat's perspective

----------------------

Kat completely froze. Lily's mouth on hers. Lips locked together. Kat's mind shut down at the same time as it exploded into a million questions. She would never know if she reflexively extended the moment or if the perception change was completely in her head but nothing seemed to move. Nothing could move as she desperately tried to scramble her mind into anything resembling working order. Kat.exe had crashed and wasn't willing to reboot.

Then all of a sudden the warmth on her mouth left and she started to hear sniffling. Kat's mind came aware just enough to see Lily, tears in her eyes pulling away but she couldn't make any sense of it just yet. Kat stayed staring, unmoving. Unable to properly deal with the thoughts thrust upon her as Lily backed up slowly looking Kat in the eyes the whole way as the tears started the flow further.
