Chapter Text
William leaned against the cold walls of the office,Henry looking down,hands intertwined with each other as the tired man ran a hand through his hair,William letting out a soft chuckle as he played around with the metal ball in his hands,looking at his dear friend,Henry throwing his head back as William watched
"Are you sure about this William?..."
"Most definitely"
William said back,throwing the metal on the air as he catched it quickly before it fell on the ground,his eyes closed feeling the tiredness consume him as the other man slowly walked towards him,William playing with the gadget on his hands
"Are you really,really,sure William?"
"You know the answer already Henry,I'm serious about this"
William opened his eyes looking directly into Henry's,the taller man towering the shorter
"I don't want to do anything with the franchise anymore,my hopes died along with Michael when he got murdered that day" William spoke making Henry look at his friend with hurt eyes,William lost so much that day,he lost his son,he lost a part of himself yet,he was trying his best everything for his firstborn,he would keep the company alive no matter what if it meant to catch Vanessa red handed
"My only goal is to get that woman arrested,if I fail…" William cut himself short,Henry knowing the answer he didn't talked back,only adoring his friend,his business partner
"I will go after that woman myself personally"
"William…"
The air on the room was tense,gathering all over William and Henry's head as the blonde put a hand on William's shoulder,a gesture of telling how he will be by his side and support him no matter what,even if it meant death
,William smiled looking to his right,eyeing the small red fox plushie sitting on the desk,he looked at the piece of fabric empty before he leaned into Henry's shoulder,inhaling the man's scent he started to tremble
The gadget he was playing before fell to the ground,hands shaking,eyes watering,trying to bit back pained whines and cries as William wrapped his arms around his friend,
"Oh Henry,what am I going to do?" William whispered knowing there would be no answer,crying silently as Henry patted his back,the both males being in complete silence as the only sound that came out were muffled whines and cries
Henry knew,he had to stay strong,for his daughter,for William,for Michael
William lost the strength in his legs long time ago was now holding into Henry for support,the blonde ran a hand through William's hair trying to soothe the man's pain
"It's okay,Im here,everything will be okay"
