Katherine fidgeted in her seat as they waited for the jury to deliberate. She had no idea what the verdict was going to be, but she knew that she had to stay positive. She didn't really have that much else. She had no idea what she would do if it didn't or how Matt was feeling right now. Katherine sighed and moved closer to Matt. She knew she shouldn't, but she needed to talk to him. To comfort him. It was the least she could do.

"How are you holding up?" she asked leaning in closer.

"As good as a dead man walking can be."

"Don't say that. You never know what's going to happen."

"I know that no matter what happens I'll always be haunted by this. I might as well be in jail."

"You have to believe Matt. Things will come together eventually. You'll just have to wait and see."

Matt sighed and turned back around.

"I just hope you're right."
