Chapter 10: Bad Day

"So, no leads today, huh?" Kitty looked up from her previous spot, a sympathetic grin on her face.

"No, not today," his voice was low, almost sad. He pressed his knees to his chest, thumb pressed to his bottom lip as he continued to watch her.

"…sorry," She mumbled.

"Bad day, right?" He nodded.

"I suppose…" She sat, leaning her body against his, nuzzling her face into his neck.

"Any better now?" She whispered in a voice that he could only describe as angelic.

"Yes…a lot better,"
