"Hey…" Faye said faintly. She looked at her girlfriend and barely touched her face. Her hand felt heavy as lead, her fingers weakly brushing against Princess's jawline while her pulse beat a slow, tired rhythm against her ribs.
"What happened?" Faye muttered. Her throat felt dry as bone, her chest rising in a small, quiet huff as she tried to gather her thoughts.
