He Heals Me

Oh Brother Part 3

A/N: This is going to be a long one guys. Bare with me *in my Teyana Taylor voice* I decided this one will have four parts and I'll try to have the next part out tonight or tomorrow.

Larry POV

You know? I have been sitting in my car for the last five minutes outside of the center. Would you like to know why? Of course you would. It's because it didn't occur to me until five minutes ago that I was about to walk into work with a two day old black eye and busted knuckles. How in the fuck am I going to explain this to Dr. Lynn. I have been wracking my brain and the only thing I've thought to tell her is the truth. Thinking she'll understand given the circumstances, but also scared as hell that she'll change her mind about me. Change her mind about me and Kina. Change her mind about me working here. Change her mind about me being good for Kina. We were in such a good place the last few days and now it feels likes that's continents away and will never come back.

I'm a psychology major for goodness sake and I let an imbecile bait me into a fight. Not only that, the imbecile is one of the reasons my "patient" and girlfriend is here in the first place. I'm fired for fucking sure. What will I tell Kina? What will she tell Kina? Aaaagghhhhh why did I not think this through?!

I have to get out of this car. Kina will be here soon and I know that Dr. Lynn will want to talk before we begin if she she's me. I'm going to need a miracle.

Author POV

Larry walked into the building and passed the reception desk as Charlotte made a quiet gasping sound instead her usual overly flirty "Good morning". Larry thought to himself, 'Damn I look that bad". He didn't bother looking at her to see if his assumption was right. He kept moving towards Dr. Lynn's office in the observation room. He took a deep breath before opening the door and taking a step in. He saw Dr. Lynn in her usual place, at her desk, arranging clipboards and sifting through paperwork. He cleared his throat and said good morning, hoping not to draw suspicion so soon. He was still kind of holding on to the hope that this might end up okay.

Dr. Lynn didn't look up from her work and returned his greeting without much thought. She knew Kina was due any minute and hadn't quite gotten all of the material together for today's exercise.

L- Dr. Lynn?

Doc- Yes Larry?

L-*deep breath* I think you should look at me.

Now this was a rather odd request coming from Larry so Dr. Lynn dropped her papers and turned toward him giving him her undivided attention. She looks closely at his face and her face drops for a moment. You can see the wheels turning, but her face gave no indication as to what she would say. Larry begins to feel his face heat up under her stare.

Doc- Larry, did Kina do that to your face?

Larry's head shot up at that. How could-why would she think that? Kina would never do this. Right?

L- No! Kina did not do this. Why would you ask me that?

Doc- She's been violent when out of control before. It was provoked and mostly in defense, but it can not be ruled out at this juncture.

L- Well no. She did not do this. She is not out of control as you put it.

Doc- So then, what happened?

Larry explain to Dr. Lynn about the altercation with Jordan at the store and how Kina reacted to everything. She seemed surprised at what she was told. She shook her head when he tried to make a joke of Jordan looking worse than he did. He probably could have kept that part to himself, he thought.
