Chapter Text
AUTHOR'S NOTE
I wrote this story because I think it's important to cherish moments long after they’re over: the kind of virtuous memories you replay, rethink, and try to outrun. Katie’s voice has always lived in that space for me. This story sits in the aftermath of one night that shouldn’t matter as much as it does.
To everyone reading: Thank you so much for reading!
TRIGGER WARNINGS
- Underage drinking
- Emotional distress
- Impulsive behaviour

DEDICATION
This book is dedicated to all the KatieFeely fans. You are the ones who see all the tension, the silence, the almost‑moments, and decide where the real story lives. This is for everyone who loves the tension, the miscommunication, the almost‑something between these two characters.
If you are someone who relates to Katie or Patrick regarding mental health illnesses, eating disorders or domestic abuse, always speak out. You should never have to suffer alone.
