Chapter 5: Aftershock

Lucy couldn't believe what she was seeing!

Robbie and Mary were in the kitchen…kissing!

"Oh my gosh!" Lucy said silently to herself as she felt tears come to her eyes. She dashed back upstairs.

Meanwhile, back in the kitchen, Robbie and Mary were still kissing. Though, they weren't kissing by choice.

"Robbie…" Mary began to say, but Robbie cut her off.

"No, Mary! Don't even bother trying to talk your way out of this, because you can't! How many times do I have to tell you that I don't feel that way about you anymore!?" He screamed and stormed out of the kitchen.

Robbie left Mary in a state of shock.
