Hey guys.

So...my other story, Keeping Promises, is nearing its end. In the midst of writing that fic, I had an idea for another fic, but with a pairing I've barely ever written (apart from 1 one-shot a short while back). I love these two in real life of course; they have the most beautiful relationship. However, I wanted to try to write something about them in fanfic form, with their on screen personas.

So here I present, the prologue to my upcoming Langson fic, entitled 'Conflict of Interest'.

Enjoy xoxo


Conflict of Interest

Prologue

"I thought you didn't date lawyers." An amused smirk was on his lips as he gazed down at her. The remark was so out of the blue, causing her to roll her eyes as she stretched her arms over her head. The sheets covered her; hugging around her chest and slender frame. A single bronze leg peeped from under the crisp, cool, white fabric.

"I don't – not normally." She shrugged. She brought her arms down to hold the sheet, the other hand being used to brush the hair out of her eyes. He grabbed hold of her hand and moved it away from her face, before trailing his hand back up her arm and over her shoulder, up her neck before he was finally able to cup her cheek. She leaned into his touch, a soft yet contented sigh escaping her lips as she looked up at him again. Extremely tall and handsome, with a hint of a five o'clock shadow and short, slightly shaven hair that gave him that charming, handsome, boy next door kind of look. He was covered by the sheet from the waist down, and protective, strong, muscular arms were draped around her back and over her waist.

And the kindness, the love, the fire – all was present in his beautiful green eyes as he looked at her, and she swallowed hard. This was something she refused to allow to happen, something that terrified her so deeply to the point that she was now fighting the urge to jump up and run away from this, away from him.

She wondered how the hell this happened. He had just been in their squad room probably a month and a half or so ago, defending one of the scumbags they had just arrested, and of course she had to maintain her professionalism despite her heart going crazy for the handsome lawyer. She had always seen him as the enemy, someone to run as far away from as she always felt that he was a sleazebag lawyer that could not be trusted. She was for the victims and was the one meant to put the bastards away. He, on the other hand, was the one who worked to help them walk free – even though that very, very rarely happened. Still, the two of them had always been on opposite ends of the legal spectrum. Despite him helping to acquit her of murder those years earlier, even though it was all one big set up, and despite him ultimately helping her through the adoption of her son, they had never been friends or anything because, as said, she always saw this man as the enemy.

So how did they end up like this? How have they now been sneaking around like this?

And how the hell was she starting to fall in love with him even though she told herself not to do so?

"Trevor."

"Hmm?" he mumbled, his lips brushing against his forehead. He placed a delicate kiss on her soft skin; she closed her eyes briefly before opening them to look at him again.

"What have we gotten ourselves into?"


And there we have it, the short prologue for my upcoming Langson fic. Please, let me know what you all think about this. Feedback would be greatly appreciated as I'm not too sure yet about it. So...thank you guys! Until next time xoxo
