Have fun!
Seeing as I'm being blocked across the board on most if not all my accounts by some of you, instead of growing up and dealing with this mess like the adults we are, then I wish you luck and have fun!
Had fun while it lasted, but this cold shoulder I've got? Not worth it.

Nick shook his head. βI looked into that, asked the seller and they claimed it was a guy, but the name of Andrew. I hadnβt even mentioned his name, so thatβs when I figured his bullshit claims where actually bullshit.β He cuddled into Caroline and inhaled the smell of her perfume. βI feel a lot better. Want me to help?β He spoke, looking at the pile of laundry.
βIβm not surprised. It was a battle when they divorced and were separating their finances. He actually tried to spend the money that was hers.β Caroline loved working with Andrewβs ex but he was another story.Β βAlice actually sent me a retirement gift. Sheβs a client I will miss.β She turned her head and kissed Nickβs cheek.Β βIβm glad. If you want. I have Tyβs uniforms in the wash now. Although his home jersey might be beyond saving this time. The mud, grass, and dirt β¦ and the smell.β
Nick nodded. βI know, I remember. He was a fucking mess, still is by the wayβ he smiled. βShe did? Sheβs such a lovely womanβ he leaned into the kiss a bit. βIβm going to donate to their club to get fully kitted out, these uniforms are not surviving these kidsβ tackles.β He spoke with a chuckle, although heβd played with the idea for a while. βI plan on going upstate, soon, for a couple days..β

Nick paced back and forth in the living room, his phone on speaker and resting in his hand as he spoke to a client. β-No, but listen..β He shook his head as the voice on the other end interrupted. βLook, Andrew.. stop interrupting and have some patience for like ten minutesβ He spoke. βYour numbers are going down because youβre spending without keeping an eye on your account and thatβs not something I can help you with.β He spoke and nodded as the male voice continued to speak in a panicked and angry tone. βOf course Iβve seen your papers, but thatβs the thing, Iβm your lawyer, not your bank. I canβt help you with your own spending. Maybe consider selling that car you just bought?β He frowned and glanced up at Caroline as she walked in. βLook, if you canβt see where youβre wrong, then maybe you should contact your bank and while youβre at it, find yourself a new lawyer.β He said before hanging up. βIdiot.β
@carolineard-rpβ
Caroline could hear Nickβs voice as she ascended the stairs from the basement with a basket of clean clothes. She glanced into the living room to assess the situation before entering. Nick was pacing, which was rarely a good sign but he didnβt appear tense, just agitated. She decided to risk it and entered the room with the laundry. As she passed Nick he ended the call and she chuckled at his endearment for the client. She had recognized the clientβs voice by the end of the call. βAndrew having financial troubles again? I once threatened to lock him out of his own account. He wasnβt amused. I definitely havenβt missed working with him since retiring.β She placed the basket on the couch and began to fold. βShouldnβt have answered the call.β
Nick dropped his phone onto the coffee table and looked at Caroline. βFinancial troubles he claims he didnβt do - he did though. Brand new car, a CCXR $ 4.8 million.β He spoke, shaking his head. βI should force him out of his account. Heβs entitled and doesnβt have a bit of shame in him.β He spoke, as he walked over and wrapped his arms around Carolineβs waist from behind and rested his chin on her shoulder. βI shouldnβt have, no but I got to say a few things Iβve wanted to say for a while.β He chuckled.
βTwo years ago it was the new condo and brand new vacation home. It appeared out of nowhere according to him.β Caroline had taken Andrew as a client because of Nick. βForgot he has an ex-wife, two teenagers and a business with a failed merger.β She leaned back into Nick as he hugged her from behind. βDo you feel better now.β
Nick shook his head. βI looked into that, asked the seller and they claimed it was a guy, but the name of Andrew.

Nick still felt some embarrassment, simply because he didnβt always manage to control it. He watched as she straightened his tie and collar before he rested his head against her hand. βI just hate this situation so muchβ¦β He only allowed himself to speak of this part of him with Caroline. He didnβt want to have anyone else see him differently but he could let it be shown to her. βBut I knowβ¦ and I love you too, a lot.β He whispered before inhaling deeply. βMy responsible boy. Letβs go, so we wonβt be late, although, a part of me would gladly skipβ¦ completely..β
βI know you do sweetheart. I wish that I could just snap my fingers and none of this would have happened. But thatβs not possible.β Caroline pushed back lightly against Nickβs cheek as he relaxed against her hand.Β βYou are ready to face the demons Nick. And if youβre not, you have Riley there and Erin to help you get through it. No one will judge you or be angry with you if you canβt make it the whole day.β She nodded and gave Nick a quick kiss.Β βThat he most definitely is. Ems would probably love it if you played hooky for the day. Parker too Iβm sure. Donβt forget weβre bringing Ems home with us tonight.β
βBut you canβt and... thatβs just okay, this was meant to happen somewhere along the way, I suppose.β Nick spoke before letting out a soft breath. βI cannot rely on them forever, you know thatβ He spoke, returning the kiss. βI know she would, I know they both would and itβs been amazing being able to do it with them hanging around.. Havenβt forgotten that, donβt worry. She made sure to make a note for that too..β He spoke with a smile.

Nick frowned when his vision suddenly changed and Caroline appeared in what always seemed like a dream - the same one every time. When he finally and fully noticed that heβd been zoning out and was looking at her, he almost felt embarrassed. He swallowed hard before placing his hand over hers and gave it a light squeeze before inhaling deeply. He gave her a soft, apologetic smile. βSorryβ¦β He muttered before turning to look at her.
Caroline squeezed back as best she could and shook her head.Β βDonβt apologize.β She told him the same thing every time. When Nick turned away from the mirror she reached up and adjusted his tie and shirt collar before bringing her hand up to rest against his cheek.Β βI love you and I am so proud of you. Iβll only be a phone call away.β She glanced over at the bedside to check the time.Β βWeβre going to be late if we donβt get moving. Tylerβs already gone to Frankβs where Jordan will pick him up after work. He biked over and he sent me a text when he arrived.β

Nick laughed with a light shake of his head. βOh, right, I see how it is.β Nick looked at Riley and smiled. βI can imagine theyβre gonna look great.β He said before he protested with a raised hand. βI didnβt say she wasnβt getting attention. I said the attention sheβs craving, Riley. What sheβs craving and what sheβs getting canβt be compared. I know you two do a lot to give all the kids equal attention and one on one time, sheβs just jealous and that makes her crave attention.β Nick smiled. βThanks.β
Riley wanted to defend her words but Nickβs raised hand had her closing her mouth so he could continue.Β βSorry. Itβs a touchy subject for me because Iβm so lost on what to do. I donβt understand how she can be craving something that she hasnβt been deprived of, you know. Sheβs not getting less than Carly, if anything sheβs getting more.β
Nick nodded. βI get it. We wreck our brains to find the good reason for what we have and havenβt done - what weβve done good and what weβve failed at and trust me, I have those feelings myself. Let her stay with us for a night or two, let her just be in the center, let us tire her down a little bit and, you know... maybe sheβll change. Maybe weβll talk to her about it. Youβre doing everything the right way. When Jordan and I lost Val, I think most of the focus went to that, instead of Tyler and he did show the signs...β

Nick let out a soft breath as he looked at himself and his outfit in the mirror - there was nothing wrong with the outfit, as a matter of fact it was perfect, the same suit and tie-kind of outfit he always wore to work. The problem? The situation he was finding himself in. First full day back was a huge leap and it was giving him anxiety. He knew what kind of effect his office was going to give him, heβd been getting them without even being in the office. His fatherβs face and a gun aiming directly at his face were the images that filled his head when he got closer to the room.
Sighing, Nick ripped the tie off and tossed it aside to get another one - heβd lost count how many times heβs changed ties for this outfit, something he did when he was nervous. After getting another tie and tying the knot, he stopped, froze almost in his spot and just stared at himself in the mirror. He could hear his heartbeat in his ears and somewhere along the way the beating heart mimicked the sound of the gun fire that happened that day. Like a snapped finger, he could see everything - details had faded now but some were still clear as day and those were the ones that were haunting him and keeping him from sleeping a single night in peace. These flashbacks were also the reason for him being absent from the present moment and not able to hear anyone if they were speaking to him or calling for him.

Caroline watched Nick silently from the doorway of his walk-in-closet. She leaned against the door frame and just silently observed him. She sighed each time he discarded another tie, he was down to only 2 unused. Finally when he left the current tie on for longer than 30 seconds she straightened up and walked up behind him. She stood to the side so he couldnβt see her in the reflection.Β βNick.β She spoke his name in a normal tone when he showed no sign of knowing she was there. After a beat she repeated his name. Still his focus was on his reflection.
Caroline took a small step to the side so that he would see her in the mirror. She reached out and gently placed her hand on his arm.Β βBabe?β When his eyes shifted and locked onto her reflection she gave him a smile.Β βWelcome back.β

nickharrisrpβ:
βDoes she now? Has she considered maybe the fact that sheβs just like us in that regards?β He joked. βAre we? I mean, maybe a littleβ¦ Yea, sheβs doing that thing, so he had to sleep at hers to get up with the sun toβ¦ do that.β He shrugged. βSheβs gonna get all the attention she craves back home, weβll give her all the attention she needs and more - nope because sheβs stubborn.β Nick shook his head. βNo, itβs fine. I can handle it..β
βSheβs probably aware yes. Thatβs why sheβs trying to pawn the blame off on your genes.β Riley replied with a laugh.Β βHeβs excited for it though. And I think pictures would look gorgeous at the Park with the sun coming up. Imagine the light that will be present.β She tensed when Nick brought up Emily craving attention.Β βSheβs not starved for it dad. Both Luke and I still spend one-on-one time with her as well as time as a whole family. Sheβs still just jealous. Parker is the oneβs whose individual time is being encroached upon and he was actually the one who made the suggestion.β She nodded.Β βOffers out there if you change your mind.β

βWell, you do you, Iβll be around somewhere. I do have a client meeting later in the day out of the firm somewhere.β He shrugged, glancing back down at the file in his hand. βWhat? Iβm allowed! Yea, I canβt wait to hear all about it from her.β He gave a smile. Nick looked over at Riley and sighed. βPlease just donβt make it annoyingly often, everyoneβs expecting something with the looks theyβre sharing, the questionsβ¦β He shook his head lightly. βIβll likely come around..β
βDonβt I always?β Riley replied with a joking tone.Β βWho schedules meeting on a Monday? Thatβs insanity.β She leaned over slightly to peek at the file. She didnβt read anything than the first sentence.Β βYouβre lucky Iβm giving up my night with Ems so that she can stay at yours for the night.β In actuality Riley was thankful to have a night off from her middle child, plus she had a fun evening planned for their one on one time Wednesday.Β βI promise not to get to the point of annoying you. I havenβt yet, have I? I do know how to respect boundaries.β
βYea, you do.β Nick gave a little head shake and a shrug. βI did, I might be a little insane.β He said before looking at her. Heβd basically done it to get out of the office and away from the firm for an hour or two and heβd likely pick up on the habit later on. βItβll be great to have her over, Tyβs going to his mother for the night, so itβll just be us three.β Truth be told, Nick had recovered a lot quicker due to the will he put in for the sake of his grandchildren, they gave him the added boost to keep fighting and getting better. βYou havenβt, itβs just getting to the point that everyone is asking and expecting something out of itβ¦ you know?β
βMom say I get that particular habit from you. Iβm more than okay with that.β It had taken Riley a lo g time to realize that sometimes she needed to just close a door on everything and focus on what needed to get done. βWeβre all a little mad here.β She chuckled. βJust one night? Oh wait, Jordan is doing that thing in the morning in the Park. Pictures or something like that. Her and Erin were talking about it Friday. But I think Ems will truly benefit from not having to battle for attention. Youβd think after 6 months weβd have worked through that. Nopeβ¦ I can tell people to fuck off for you. Politely of course.β
βDoes she now? Has she considered maybe the fact that sheβs just like us in that regards?β He joked. βAre we? I mean, maybe a little... Yea, sheβs doing that thing, so he had to sleep at hers to get up with the sun to... do that.β He shrugged. βSheβs gonna get all the attention she craves back home, weβll give her all the attention she needs and more - nope because sheβs stubborn.β Nick shook his head. βNo, itβs fine.

When this is the best sonogram from your six month checkup because you don't want to know the gender ....

Nick felt for Riley, heβd never tried it himself, at least not as bad as she was describing it, but he understood. βScentβs just stuck in your head, itβll fade.β He smiled softly. βI canβt wait, I get to brag a little with her.β He said with a chuckle. Nick looked at Riley and pretended to reach for the handle to open the door. βIβm fine, Riley. I justβ¦ need to get busy with work and Iβll be fine. I just gotta get used to being back, thatβs all.β
βYeah and it will be there all day β¦ trust me. Maybe Iβll just hide out in my office all day. I do have a lot of paperwork to catch up on from going home early on Friday.β Riley rolled her eyes.Β βBrag away. Sheβs excited to share this with you especially since Parker didnβt want to play softball this year. Itβs her thing now.β She nodded in understanding.Β βI get that dad, but you know Iβm still gonna ask from time to time because I care. My office is still a safe space for you if needed.β
