Katherine chanced a glance over her shoulder as they walked off down the corridor but saw not a single eye in their direction. All the better. She held tightly to Eward's arm, not feeling as if her own feet could hold her, at least not yet. The cool breeze on the patio did nothing to comfort her, only making her colder and reminding her of the bleakness of the day, and she shifted just closer to Eward, needing the warmth of his body to keep her sanity.
"That...that's wonderful," Katherine stammered, her chest aching and throat seemingly closed up and choked. Her breath came in raspy, short, shuddering gasps, but quietly. "I...I am happy for you." And she truly was, but her voice would not make itself sound so.
