♬ the pianoman's thirtieth song ♬

[lawyerlarry.livejournal.com]

[Larry is look for a Fred. He's been thinking about her ever since hearing her song, but he knows to give her space sometimes. Now that it's getting late though, he thinks it's time to find her. He checks her room, but there's no answer. He's got his journal open with him in case he hears from her over it. Before making his way to Caritas to see if she's there he decides to check the kitchen.

He finds her there making coffee and steps in. He watches her quietly for a bit, waiting for her to notice him. When she doesn't he moves closer. He worries about her a lot and he knows she worries about him, but he thinks they also have a mutual understanding that each other really is okay in the long run. And he knows he'll be okay as long as she's there. He doesn't think about how he would be if she wasn't, because he doesn't like thinking about her not being there. It actually makes his heart hurt to think about it.

When she does finally look up and see him, he smiles warmly. And something comes over him and he starts walking closer to her as a song starts it's way off his lips...]

[She's been leaning up against the kitchen counter for a while now, watching the coffee as it dripped slowly into the pot and listening to the gurgling, popping sounds coming from inside. It's almost as loud as her head.

She's just finished filling her mug to the brim when Fred catches sight of Larry entering the room. It doesn't surprise her now when he starts to sing. And she can't even muster shock when she hears her own voice matching his as her hands lock around the warmth of the mug]

[Finally fully yielding to the impulsiveness of the moment, Fred puts her coffee aside with her free hand as something motivates her to encourage Larry into a small twirl.

Even if he is taller than her]

[he laughs and holds her in his arms as they twirl, before holding her hand up in the air to make her twirl on her own.]
