May 11, 7:34 P.M. Wright and Co. Law Offices
Phoenix walked inside, and instantly collapsed onto the couch, which was conveniently by. Maya walked in after him, and upon seeing his collapse onto the soft cushions, she walked behind him and asked, "Nick, do you want me to hang your sport coat for you?"
The lawyer sighed, "Of course, Maya."
She did just that, and sat next to him on the couch.
Phoenix groaned, "I don't understand it. I mean, why did I even get to represent him in court? This case would have been over if I would have stayed put!"
Maya yelled, "Nick! Don't think so negatively about it! Look at the bright side of things! After all, he isn't guilty!"
Phoenix slammed his hand on the arm of the couch. "He very well may be guilty! We just have to wait however long it takes for those Feds to investigate!"
Maya begged, "N-Nick, promise me that you won't complain like this all night... I really hate it to see you like this."
Phoenix wiped his forehead of what little sweat was left on it from the trial and agreed, "Maybe I should stop whining at get things done."
She suggested, "Nick, maybe we should get ready for bed."
He said, "Sure."
Phoenix knew that part of the law office had living space, which had been made by Mia so that she didn't have to rent an apartment. After her murder, Phoenix adapted the space to his specifications.
He walked into the bedroom and into the bathroom, and closed the door. Maya simply got in front of the television and began to watch the program that was on at the moment. She really didn't understand what it was about, but it appeared to be about a science teacher yelling at his students.
Phoenix dragged his fingers through his spiky hair, and thought, "What was I thinking when I became that guy's attorney?! Then again, he would be in jail right now if I hadn't intervened."
The lawyer took off his famous suit and got into more comfortable attire; specifically, a T-shirt and shorts, and exited into the bedroom.
He saw Maya sitting on the bed in a light blue, terrycloth robe, and she was drinking some sort of liquid from one of the office's coffee cups. Although Phoenix didn't want to admit it, to him, Maya looked very cute in light blue.
Phoenix asked, "What are you drinking, Maya?"
She replied, "Black tea."
He yelled, "Black tea?! Since when was it a good idea to drink a caffeinated beverage before bed?"
Maya gasped, "Nick! Tea makes me feel relaxed! Now let me have my tea, and we can go to bed!"
He sighed, "All right..."
She quickly drank her tea, placed the cup in the lobby, and hopped into the large bed in the center of the room, and Phoenix joined her shortly thereafter.
The attorney turned off the lights and said, "Good night, Maya."
He kissed her. She giggled, "Oh, Nick. You're so cute..."
Maya then ran her fingers through his hair and lightly kissed him. Both of them then fell back onto their pillows and fell asleep faster than you could say, "Mystic Maya! Did you just kiss Mr. Nick again?"
