Chapter Twelve

War Room…

Ten minutes later…

Larry was sitting at the end of the table, thinking about the events of the past couple days and wondering how to move forward when this whole thing is over.

'How could I have ever been friends with him?' Larry thought rhetorically, as he already knew the answer but he still couldn't help but wonder.

He was so deep in thought that he didn't notice Megan coming in with Colby and it took Colby shaking his shoulder slightly to get the man's attention.

"Apologies, Colby, I did not hear you or Megan coming into the room." Larry apologized

"It's okay, man." Colby said with his best smile, "You are going through a tough time right now, I understand."

"Thank you, I appreciate your kind words." Larry said

"Will you be okay, Larry?" Megan asked, worried about her boyfriend

"In time, I will be Megan but right now in the concept of time, I can say that I am not." Larry answered honestly

"Don't worry, I don't think you will ever run into Philbrick again when this whole thing is over." Megan said, secretly hoping that she was right

"Thank you, now what's the news about Don?" Larry inquired, concerned about the agent's well being.

"He's doing well now, and we will be able to see him tomorrow, as he still needs some rest and Charlie and Alan, along with Robin, wanted to have a talk with him before he would start sleeping again." Megan said, smiling when she said that last part and Colby was smirking as well.

"Well, that's a sight that I would like to see." Larry said in amusement

"How about I take you home, as there isn't anything else for me to do here," Megan said

"Yeah, I can take care of things here anyway." Colby offered

"Home, I love the sound of that." Larry said as he and Megan walked out of the room.
