Erin-
Jamie Reagan stood on the steps his sisters office building and took a nervous gulp before he started to head inside. He had just gotten inside the building when he decided to turn around and head back out. He had been outside for about 15 seconds when he decided that he really did need to talk to her and headed back inside. Jamie was back out about 5 seconds after he got in. In and out, in and out, in and out. He did it three more times before he made it onto the elevator and headed towards Erin's floor. The process had taken 10 minutes, and Jamie was sure that the coffee he and cupcakes he had brought Erin weren't too fresh now. He finally arrived on her floor and was headed towards her office. He was about to change his mind yet again when Erin looked up from her desk and saw him through the window. Busted. He didn't have a choice now. With one more nervous gulp, he headed towards the lion's den.
"Hey sis!" Jamie said as excitedly as he could make himself sound as he entered her office.
"Hey Jamie! What are you doing here?" Erin asked happily. Her eyes drifted towards the treats that her brother was holding.
"With… cupcakes and coffee." Erin's voice drifted accusingly as she gave him a look that said "Really? What do you want?" She was used to this kind of thing from Danny, but Jamie didn't usually resort to bribery.
"I just came by to see my sister. It's been awhile since I've been here, and we really talked. 3 and a half years actually. Figured it was overdue. What's new with you?" Jamie asked as nonchalantly as possible.
"Seriously? Coffee and cupcakes, and all you wanted to do was check in on me?" Erin accused, still not convinced.
"What? A brother can't come see his big sister to see how she's doing?" Jamie asked offendedly.
"Not when your last names Reagan." Erin muttered.
"OK, fine. I need your advice." Jamie admitted, throwing his hands up in defeat. Erin raised her eyebrow curiously.
"Oh, come on, it's not like you don't know what it's about." Jamie exclaimed. Erin just grinned. Of course, she knew. There was only one reason Jamie ever asked for advice. Not that he didn't ever ask for favors, but when it came to advice it was always on the topic of a certain spunky blonde. Jamie just rolled his eyes.
"Okay, fine! You were right. I have feelings for her, I have for four and a half years, and they just keep growing. I know she feels the same way about me, but I don't know what to do. I love her, Er. I mean, I got arrested because of a fight over her. There's nothing I wouldn't do for her, but at the same time, that doesn't mean I want to give up what we've got going! I can't imagine the beat with anyone else. I can't imagine life with anyone else." Jamie explained. Erin listened to his rant in amusement.
"I know. You love her like Danny loved Linda. You've got to talk to her though. You have already wasted four and a half years, and if I were you, I wouldn't waste another day." She explained calmly. She knew he probably would be too stubborn to listen, but she could only hope that one day he would get smart about it. Erin knew they were inevitable, and personally couldn't wait till she wasn't the only adult women at the family dinner table again. It had been far too long since that ninth chair had been occupied at Sunday Dinner, and everyone knew that Eddie was the perfect person to fill it.
So, despite her frustration at her brother, Erin continued to listen to him rant. She enjoyed seeing him so happy and knew that in the end it would be worth it. As Erin put her frustrations behind her, the siblings continued to have a good afternoon together talking about love and relationships. After all, Jamie and Eddie really were inevitable. It was just a matter of time, and everyone knew it.
