Katie frowned. She didn't doubt that Lucy could hold her own. In truth, Lucy wasn't someone that she wanted to duel with. She might have been tempted to just use a Confundus Charm on Lucy if she didn't believe Lucy would be able to defeat it and her afterward. Though, she was feeling desperate to make Lucy see it was a bad idea to stay around her.
She swallowed hard. Katie was truly touched that Lucy wanted to remain with her. But, she was afraid for Lucy's safety. What if something happened to Lucy because of her? Could Katie live with herself?
Katie's eyes got glassy. "Oh Lucy..." She trailed off giving her girlfriend an affectionate look.
Reaching out her hand for Lucy, she wanted to feel close to her.
