WORDEN'S POV
Papers after papers, and more papers. That's all my job was before this case became too much for the guys on level 13, I was only a level 7 guy. Now here I am, at Lyn Reacher's trial.
Usually it takes inmates months to get their trial, but so many people want to know what's going to happen to her, so three days later; the trial of Lyn Reacher.
It was hilarious to see her sitting here in the bright orange jumpsuit. Her hands cuffed on the table, her eyes looked angry and scared. She had it coming, she was just to naïve to know it.
The judge walked in and everyone stood up, she raised her hand signaling is to sit down. She cleared her throat, "Ladies and gentlemen, I suspect that we have all the evidence we need today. Let's try to make this quick please." She said.
Lyn began to tremble at the intimating judge sitting above her. She looked over at me from her table, I smirked and held up the tape recording of her confessions.
"Detective Worden, would you please?" She asked.
I nodded and stood up. Adjusting my tie, I grabbed the tape recording and began. "Your honor, this woman," I pointed at Lyn, "Fully confessed to me everything that had happened."
"Is that so?" She raised and eyebrow.
I nodded, "Yes ma'am, I have it all here."
Lyn stood up, "Objection!"
"Stand down!" The judge yelled, "You have no right to speak without a lawyer."
Lyn shook her head and sat down and began to cry pathetic tears. I played the tape recording of all her confessions to everyone in the room. This was always being aired live, so everyone was listening.
The judge sighed, "Alright Ms. Reacher, do you have anything left to say before I speak to the jury?"
"No." She gave up, she knew it was hopeless.
The judge nodded, "Lets listen to what the jury has to say."
A man stood up, "Guilty." He shrugged because it was obvious.
The judge nodded, "I sentence you, life in prison." She banged the hammer, "Court dismissed."
Lyn was taken out of the court room, we made contact one last time. I smirked and waved goodbye to her, and walked myself out of the courtroom. Oh, it felt good to win.
CLAIRE'S POV
"Louis, are you sure this is safe?" I asked, laughing.
"Of course it is, love. Haven't you been cliff diving before?" He crossed his arms.
"No," I looked down thirty feet below me, "Never."
"Well first things first, you have to put a swim suit on." He smirked, "Come on. It's just the two of us."
"I know, but-"
"Come on."
I rolled my eyes and took off my shirt, when he said swim suit he meant bra and panties. I didn't have a swimsuit, we were in Ireland where the hell do you buy a swimsuit?"
Once I took my shirts off Louis wolf whistled causing me to blush. "Your turn, Tomlinson." I mimicked his arm crossing and he just shrugged.
He threw off his shirt and and pants, "See? Easy."
"Because you're a man." I turned toward the water and looked down.
Louis wrapped his arm around my waist and grinned. "Why are you smiling?"
"Because I know you'll kill me." He joked.
"What?" Before he said anything, he picked me up and threw me off the edge.
When I landed in the water, I made sure to get a large breath in. I stayed under for a good ten seconds, before Louis jumped in. He thought something was wrong, revenge.
He was swimming around calling my name. I swam over to him and pulled his leg so he went under the water. When we both resurfaced, he was coughing and I was smirking.
"Okay, I deserved that." He admitted, "You know, this reminds me of the lake when we were camping."
"How long ago was that?" I asked.
Louis shrugged, "Five months ago, I think."
"Damn." I couldn't believe it's been that long.
"Claire, you know everything is over now, right?" He said.
I nodded, "I know it, it's weird, though."
"I know." He got closer to me, "But now we're free. Liam's living his life, Ed is too. Now we can."
"What are you going to do though?" I asked, "I mean later on."
Louis grabbed both my hands and intertwined our fingers, then put them out to the sides. "Whatever the hell we want." He connected our lips, causing me to smile a bit. Louis pulled away again, "But, you know, having a Louis Jr. wouldn't hurt."
I busted out laughing, "It wouldn't hurt, but it would be lots of work. You know that, right?"
He nodded, "Do you know what one of the best parts of having a child is?" He asked.
"What?" I asked with a stupid grin on my face.
Louis' famous smirk crossed his face, "Making the baby."
