Larry nods and tucks her hair behind her ear. “I know.” With a sigh, he pulls her into another hug, resting his cheek against her. “Part of me wants to just work nonstop so I don’t keep thinking about it,” His voice cracks, his words thick with emotion, “And another part of me just wants to lay down until it doesn’t hurt anymore.” His fingers massage the back of her neck gently, just trying to keep going.

One moment of solace would be the end of all control. “But I can’t even think of practicing law right now..” He and Ally had sterling reputations, and he knows that if he tried to practice law or go into court, he would have a massive breakdown and the years he and Ally spend building their firm would have all been a waste. Juries didn’t look too kindly on things of that nature.

       “I know, trust me, the last thing on my mind right now is practicing law. I’m sure our associates will understand, and they can handle it. That’s kind of why we pay them.” She states. At this point in their career, their names were already set in stone, they didn’t need to take as many cases as they did. It was their love for what they did that kept them going. 

The blonde revels in the warmth of his frame and leans against him as she breathes in his calming scent. “I’m just trying to keep going. If I stop, I won’t be able to hold it together.” She admits softly, a sigh flowing out past her lips as she lifts her head to press a kiss to his cheek. “Okay, coffee… I’m going to get on that.”
