Katie nodded. “Oh.” She didn’t know whether she was happy for that or not. “I guess I started acting funny right before I planned to. I was waiting until we got to the Three Broomsticks so we could talk,” she told Lucy cryptically.
“A few hours? Wow, it didn’t feel like I slept more than a few minutes,” Katie muttered.
Katie smiled at Lucy affectionately when she kissed her. “Thanks,” she said graciously. When Lucy was gone in search of water, Katie tried to adjust herself on the bed to get comfortable but couldn’t find the strength. She was still straining and squirming when Lucy returned.
