    Summary

    The way she’s let loose reminds him of the old days, getting tipsy after hours in the D.A’s office. She always gets a bit more giggly when she’s on the left side of sober and her happiness is palpable.

    He feels as if he’s barely seen her this week.

    With all the shit with Mike, Forstman, Logan, Cahill, and god knew what else breathing down his neck, it isn’t as if there’s been a lot of time for pleasantries. And Donna has also been busy, working on her play while managing tasks for him and his clients, but he can’t remember the last time they just…sat together. Talked. Had a drink.

    So this is nice, even if they are hanging out under the guise of a dumb bet.

    “Your drink” he announces when the bartender slides two glasses their way. He picks it up and places it into her hand, leaning in a little too close to be considered appropriate, “Try to actually enjoy this one.” Unlike the first two, which she’d finished in record time.

    The skin of her arm erupts in goosebumps as he trails his fingers along it and Harvey smirks.

    It may be a dumb bet, but he still wants to win.

    Summary

    The Chicago Ballet Company is proud to present its casting for their 25th anniversary of Tchaikovsky’s The Nutcracker.

    -
    "I know you're leaving the company, but must you do it in the most destructive way?"

    Eddie blows the smoke from his cigarette to mingle with her own icy breath. "You think I'm leaving?"

    Chrissy hugs her arms around her chest for mock warmth, "Aren't you?"

    Eddie chuckles, "It's not like there's anything keeping me here."

    Her lips part as if to say what about me? Ridiculously selfish for her to keep him when she knows that Eddie is far too talented for only small roles. Just because what? She’d miss him?

    Chrissy digs her nails further into bare skin. "Just stay until the end of the season. Please."

    Eddie sighs and gives her a soft smile, "If my prima wishes it.”

    Summary

    After what seemed like a long time, she said, “Maybe you don’t thrive there either.”

    Jaime opened his mouth, fully prepared to make a joke about enjoying the silver spoon he was born suckling–thank you very much. But it wasn’t true. He’d hated his limited, cultivated upbringing–always being around the right people, doing the right things.

    He’d been struggling to thrive in captivity his whole damn life, and it had taken Brienne Tarth less than ten minutes to figure it out.
