"Oh." Harper said quietly, putting a hand to her stomach. "So.. so.. why is Ripley.. doing all this?" |

"I mean...he could be doing it just because. He's kind of a terror like that." Griffith shrugged slightly. "But he could also be doing it because... well... because Lawson was my brother, and considering his brother ended up in jail on Lawsons' behalf, that's reason enough for him. Either way, it's not good news for us." |

Harper looked a little confused still but didn't want to press further. Not tonight as least. "Right. Obviously." she nodded a little, rubbing her stomach as she pursed her lips, thinking about the events just a few hours ago. "Dixon and Darcy..." |

"I know...I know." Griffith sighed. "But, I mean, I don't want to risk staying here much longer." |

"...I don't either." Harper said quietly, biting at her bottom lip. |

"I'm sure if we explained just how dire the situation is, they'll understand." Griffith said, moving his hand to gently grip at Harper's knee. "They want you and our wee ones safe just as much as I do." |

"I know they do but that doesn't mean they won't be upset..." Harper said quietly, biting her bottom lip still anxiously. |

"I know, but... we don't have many options." Griffith said, moving to lean his frame against hers. He placed his head at her shoulder. "They'll just have to take it as its doled out, and we'll just have to make it as comfortable for them as possible." |

Harper took a deep breath and nodded a little, grabbing his hand and holding onto it. "And Flora?" |

"Flora's tough...she'll cope, besides, I don't think she wants to hang around here much longer if those goons are attacking the house with the baby in it." Griffith said, squeezing Harper's hand. He raised her hand to his lips and gently kissed at her knuckles. |

"Yeah, true." Harper said quietly, squeezing his hand. "Darcy won't be as upset. He'll be upset for Dixon, I guess, and sad we have to leave Harriet behind." |

"Mm, it was already going to be hard, but I guess it's going to just be...harder." Griff sighed before looking over at Harper. He gave her a weak smile, leaning over to place a kiss at her cheek. "But we'll talk about it more later, okay? Let's go get our share of pizza before those boys get home and demolish those pizzas." He suggested. |

"Yeah." Harper chuckled some and went to get back up, holding onto his hand still. "It'll... it'll be alright, one way or another." |

"It will be, it will be." Griffith smiled as he got up. He idly swung Harper's hand as they headed out of the room. |

Harper followed him, keeping a hand on her stomach and rubbing it gently. She needed to remember to relax and not stress out over things so much. "Mmm, feeling quite hungry now." she laughed some. |
