Seth Redford Share Posted December 30, 2020 "Knowing that band's reputation, they'd sue us from beyond the grave," Seth joked as he grabbed his beer and pushed himself up to go shower up and change into his lounge clothes, "If you don't have any strong preference I'm kinda feeling Mexican tonight." @Morrigan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Alice Gregory-Redford Author Share Posted December 30, 2020 "I can do Mexican," she nodded to him. "Actually sounds fucking amazing." @Dragon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Seth Redford Share Posted December 30, 2020 "Get extra tortillas," he said over his shoulder as he walked into their bedroom. He kicked his shoes off by the door and went into the bathroom to strip down. He took a while in the shower, at first just finishing off his beer and enjoying the water before actually scrubbing and rinsing down. By the time he came back out Alice had started a movie and was settled on the couch. @Morrigan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Alice Gregory-Redford Author Share Posted December 30, 2020 Alice had chosen to bundle up with the heating pad on her leg. She felt miserable but she'd never say it out loud. When Seth sat next to her she leaned into him and settled her head on his shoulder. @Dragon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Seth Redford Share Posted December 30, 2020 Seth adjusted to let her lie against him, kissing the top of her head as he got fully settled and kicked his legs up on the coffee table. @Morrigan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Alice Gregory-Redford Author Share Posted December 30, 2020 Eventually the food would arrive and Seth would go to grab it. It was as they were eating. "I think I need to take a leave at least until my leg is healed," she finally admitted reluctantly. "I feel like walking on it all day is just make it worse." @Dragon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Seth Redford Share Posted December 30, 2020 "So take it," he answered without much thought, "we work hard to accrue that fucking sick leave." @Morrigan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Alice Gregory-Redford Author Share Posted December 30, 2020 Yeah," she huffed as she settled into the couch a little more heavily with an angry huff. @Dragon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Seth Redford Share Posted December 30, 2020 "Are you alright?" Seth paused from eating to look up at her. @Morrigan Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Alice Gregory-Redford Author Share Posted December 30, 2020 "I don't want to take a break," she said to him. "As long as all my fuck ups don't cause me to miscarry then I'm... never mind. Fuck." @Dragon Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Alice Gregory-Redford Author Share Posted December 30, 2020 "I don't want to be on a fucking desk Seth," she nearly snapped at him. "And I know I want kids but fuck..... fuck.... fuck...... what am I supposed to do? I am going to lose who I am. What I am." @Dragon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Seth Redford Share Posted December 30, 2020 "Who said anything about a desk?" @Morrigan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Alice Gregory-Redford Author Share Posted December 30, 2020 Alice looked at him from the edge of her eyes. "Lie to me baby. That'll make me feel better." @Dragon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Seth Redford Share Posted December 30, 2020 "You're not gonna end up stapled to some desk," he frowned. @Morrigan Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Alice Gregory-Redford Author Share Posted December 30, 2020 "Maternity leave is basically retiring. You're never going to treat me the same in the field anymore," she said looking up to him. "You pushed me out of the way of that shot." @Dragon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
