[The shock doesn't keep her from feeling a wave of nausea at the fact that Eddie insists he hadn't seen anything. Knowing everything is inside of her head only makes it worse somehow. Maybe her mom is right, and she deserves to be punished for not being perfect. But no matter how much she starves herself, no matter how bony she gets because she throws up what little she does eat, it's never going to be good enough.

Laura Cunningham will never accept that she has a broken daughter. And Chrissy is going straight to the hospital, where the doctors and nurses will tell everyone she's crazy.

Thankfully, Eddie provides her with a distraction. He's driving like a bat out of hell, but she pays that little attention. Instead, her eyes are on him, brow furrowing.]

You kissed me.

[Her mangled arm is really starting to throb in pain, but she tries to ignore it in favor of reaching up to touch at her lips with her good hand. She thinks she can still taste him, actually. The taste of cigarettes mixed with something a little more bitter, but there's an edge of sweetness there to him too. though maybe that's her strawberry lip gloss.

He kissed her, and she realizes that's what she felt when she was lost in her own mind.]

I could feel it. You kissed me, and I saw you. I knew I had to get to you, that you were safe. So I jumped toward you, and then I woke up.

[If she's angry or upset about him kissing her, she doesn't sound like it. There's a pause though, as she realizes how fast he's driving.]

Should we be going this fast?
