Blake Watson

"Is this okay?" She says, pulling the spoon up towards my mouth as my head is resting on her shoulder, my arms around her waist from behind.

I try what's on the spoon as she stares at me, nodding at her.

"It's good, really good. You're getting better." I smile.

Holly smiles back, "Thank you. Luckily this time I didn't burn down the kitchen." She jokes.

"Oh yeah." I joke as well, "But don't worry, it's great." I say as I kiss her cheek.

"Can you go set the table? This is almost done." She asks.

"Yeah." I walk away from her, giving her hip a squeeze.

I make my way towards our round dining table, setting the plates on it, over the two round tablecloths we bought a while back.

"Holly babe, do you want to have wine?" I ask her.

"Sure, I'll get it." She replies back from the kitchen.

I make my way to it again, grabbing the two plates she had served already and taking them to the dining table. I place them down as I watch Holly come back with the bottle of wine.

We both sit down, starting to have dinner and I open the bottle, pouring both of us a bit on each glass.

"How's the case going?" She asks me after a couple of minutes.

"Alright. Harry's the one that has the hardest part, you know what I mean?"

"Yeah. But how's it going with Sienna?"

"Good, she's nice enough to be around." I pause, before saying. " But, I don't know."

Holy places a hand on the back of my neck, " What do you mean?"

I shake my head, "I mean that I have the feeling she doesn't know anything about what might have happened. I think no one but Brooke does, and the only thing we can get out of Sienna is just how Brooke might have been with her or with the people around her."

"But isn't that helpful to actually know in the end if Brooke is somehow the one to blame?"

"Yeah, don't get me wrong, she has given us some information about how Brooke is and how she was with her mom, which only makes her more suspect. "

"So what is then baby? What's bothering you about all this?"

"I just...Harry has the most important part, and I know he's capable of doing it, and I just–I kind of wish I would have been capable of handling that too, you know?"

She frowns at me, "Do you feel like what you're doing isn't enough?"

I nod, letting out a sigh, "yeah, for the most part."

"Oh, baby. Has my dad said something?"

"No, it's not that. I just feel like Sienna just doesn't have much to offer to help with the case." I state.

Holly just looks at me, "Well, but you said her information was helpful. Look, you might not see it now because you just feel like Harry has to deal with the hardest part, but what you are doing is enough. Is enough for what you have been assigned. And you've figured things out, and you will continue to figure things out. For what you have been telling me there's a lot more to be discovered, and I'm sure Sienna has a lot of helpful information that will help you guys or she wouldn't have been someone to investigate to begin with. Don't think just because you're not investigating Brooke it does mean other people won't have something useful for the case. Honestly Blake, you're doing fine, and just how you tell Harry, you have just started. And also you helped my father with other things involving the case, so don't ever say that you're useless because you're not, okay?" She smiles me. Lovingly, caringly, and I can't help but smile at the sight of her.
