what if. what if. richard stops by the office because he and katherine need to go over some documents. and he refused to compromise with katherine and do it at some point after she finishes work because that's too late in the day. so he's there and sadie watches him and katherine arguing as they do in katherine's office and then katherine walks out for a moment for some reason or other and sadie knows it's stupid but she steps in, pretends she's looking for katherine and that she's surprised richard's there, and they exchange cold niceties. and she asks richard how he's doing with the whole thing and richard tells her to cut the bullshit and sadie doesn't even stammers, she just does. her face shifting away from awkward pleasantries while richard's looking over the documents. and richard goes "what i donât get â and thatâs the only thing, really, because everything else makes perfect sense â is why she'd risk it. her career, i mean. our marriage? sure. but her job?" and sadie bares her teeth at him.
she knows she needs to consider her words but she's been wanting to tell richard something really nasty for a while now so she goes "you know, i think she's right about you."
and richard looks up and smiles unpleasantly and says "oh?"
"yeah, you're not really worth it."
and then katherine comes back and gives sadie a what the fuck are you doing look and richard's like "i know i signed that NDA but you gotta keep her under control, don't you think?" and sadie had NO IDEA there was an NDA involved in the divorce but considering the fact that the stuff richard knows about them at this point could end katherine's career it makes sense, she just wonders how much katherine paid for it, and katherine just goes "i think you're at a very high risk of losing that money you got for your troubles, so i'd watch myself. are we done, by the way?"
"yeah, yeah, we're done."
"good, so you can get the fuck out of my office."
and when richard leaves katherine turns to sadie and just says "we're not talking about it. i'm not telling you," and sadie knows she's referring to the question she was just about to ask about the NDA. she nods. katherine's still visibly angry at her for talking to richard. and sadie swallows, licks her own lips as she clenches around nothing because katherine's so hot right now, bullying richard and looking at sadie like that, and the fact she paid for an NDA, and the thing richard said about her risking her job and getting to tell richard he's a loser, and sadie's head is swimming, and she knows it's fucked but the only thing she can say is "do you want to fuck me?"
and katherine's like, "now? really?"
katherine hesitates. she steals a glance down to sadie's lips, her neck, whatever is visible of her chest. "can't now," is what she says, though, and sadie's so confused her mouth is hanging open, and she blinks, and then katherine adds, "NDA's only valid if we're done."
"and you didn't think to tell me?"
"no, not really. is that a problem for you?"
they lock eyes and stand there and neither can admit that yes, it is, so sadie ends up saying "no, that's fine."
and that's how they take the longest fucking break they ever took from each other <3
