December

We got back home a little while ago. Quinn and Nyla are making sure Astoria is okay and me, James, and Marshall are finalizing the end of the contract.

"Okay, so how much would all of this come out to?" I ask Marshall but he shakes his head.

"No, you don't have to pay me. You guys have already been through so much and I couldn't-" I cut him off.

"Absolutely not, this was more than you bargained for and I will not let you leave empty-handed." I press as I write a check for 1 million dollars. I rip the paper out of the pad and hand it to him.

His jaw drops and he shakes his head, pushing the paper back into my hand. "I can't, that's way too much."

James takes the paper from me and shoves it into Marshall's briefcase. "Lewis is right. You've done more for us than you had to so you deserve this." before Marshall can say anything else, J speaks up again.

"Actually," he digs in the file cabinet before pulling out a packet. "I was thinking, how would you like to be our primary lawyer?" he asks, causing his jaw to drip once again.

He looks between both of us before asking, "Are you guys serious?" James nods and shortly after, I do as well with a small smile on my face.

"O-Of course. I-I don't know what to say. It's an honor working with you guys, thank you, thank you so much." he gets up from his seat and pulls us into a hug.

"I have some things back at the office to finalize, but ill keep in touch. Thank you again." he grabs his briefcase and his jacket before leaving the office.

I fall into my seat and swivel back and forth softly. "So, we didn't talk about making him our primary." I look over to James who sits on the couch at the corner by the window.

"Oh please, like you weren't thinking the same thing." I chuckle softly before standing up from my seat.

"Well, I have to go take care of Astoria, try not to have too much fun with Nyla." I wink and he looks at me confused.

"What? You thought I didn't notice?" I let out a heavy laugh at his face. I mean it was pretty obvious.

The looks they gave each other, them always going everywhere together. Doesn't take a rocket scientist to notice the chemistry.

I leave the office and head up the stairs to our room. I see Astoria sitting up on the bed with Nyla and Quinn on each side.

Once they notice me in the doorway, the girls get up. "We tried to bathe her but she wanted you to do it." I can't help but smile a little.

She trusts me. I know I figured that out a while ago but I just can't help but love her even more every time.

"Thanks, guys." they nod before leaving the room. I walk over to Astoria and help her off of the bed.
