It all started with that goddamn comment. Laurel had never felt so irritated and irked by a sexist remark. She normally just brushed them off as misogynistic ignorance. But Frank and his arrogant smirk brought back that voice in the back of her head that made her question her abilities, her talents, her worth, and she hated that. It kept nagging her about the true reason she was one of the four: the four, now five students that had the fortune of working for the most renowned and talented defense attorney in the business. Professor Delfino was everything that Laurel hated in man. Frankly (no pun intended) she thought he was the run of the mill douche bag. What did he even teach?! What disgusted her most was the idea of knowingly defending a guilty client. It was something Laurel thought she could never do, and he acknowledged it with pride. She couldn't exactly pinpoint the feeling. Shame maybe? But in that moment, Laurel felt as if she would voluntarily suffer the wrath of Annalise Keating every class than be ridiculed by Frank. As her name was announced along with Connor, Michaela, Asher, and Wes, she felt his eyes on her accompanied by that infuriating grin. Laurel knew she would be lying if she said he wasn't attractive with his arrogant demeanor, true Philadelphian accent, and well kept beard. But no way in hell, would she act on that.

After Frank finished explaining the importance of the murder book in relation to the St. Vincent murder trial Asher and Connor started theorizing why Wes was part of the "Chosen." She was sick of the snobbish comment; they all deserved to be there, even Asher, the standard privileged fraternity "bro." Though when Bonnie wondered aloud in response asking:

"Why are any of you here?"

Laurel could feel her condescending glare, followed by a knowing sideways glance from Frank. He was doing that a lot actually, only Bonnie seemed to notice, countering it with her icy demeanor. If only Annalise would learn her name, she would no longer feel like the weakest link, an idea the voice in the back of her head brought up.

After another successful day in court, watching Annalise do her dance with legal jargon and loopholes, Laurel jumped at the opportunity to write up the prep questions for Eloise, Max St. Vincent's daughter, and their star character witness. That of course, earned her another smirk and stare from Frank, who she was finding more attractive by the day, not that she would admit it to anyone.
