Laurie never really understood the men you’d go after, or necessarily the men you let go after you.

but he assumed flat out saying that wouldn’t be the best option.

“mhm, of course.”

He hums at your request to help tighten your attire in order to not look messy in front of your newly man.

“you look beautiful you know? You are beautiful, you don’t need all of this.”

but he does so anyways, even if he is clouded with pity for the boy. Because he knows it wont work.

He will not let it.
