Lost, Drifting - Chapter 6 - Nothing Left to Lose
"I should not have kissed you, it was not proper."
"Did you not enjoy it?" It was Anthony's turn to stare at her as if she was standing on the brink of madness. Instead of staring back at him with her usual fire, she avoided his eye, twisting the hem of her sleeve in her fingers. "Was it bad?"
"Bad...?!"

The day after the festival, Anthony and Kate take a walk and finally have a much-needed conversation.
Look at me, updating in less than a week. Happy Labor Day, I suppose.
We finally get that conversation everyone was dying to see, with Kate trying to knock some sense into Anthony's hard head. Apparently this is as much slow-burn as I could get done, lol.
Next chapter we'll be seeing another important conversation, this time between Anthony and our beloved Nurse Mary (Am I diving waaaay too deep in Mary's backstory here? Yes. Do forgive me).
2.5k of it is done, so I hope to update soon.
To all who commented in AO3 or reblogged this post, I love you all so much. The comments kept me alive here! So many wonderful ones, I almost cried.
To @harnitbee and @ladystanbury thank you for your helping hand and patient listening, I would have gone mad without it. You two are the absolute best!
I hope you enjoy this chapter!
