Pairing: Hank/Evan

Spoilers: None

Warnings: Slash, incest

Author's Notes: Poor Hank. I would feel sorry for him, but he shouldn't cheat. Review.


It's been three days since Evan left and Hank is a wreck. Luckily, there's been no emergencies, so he hasn't had to leave the house. Boris is gone on some trip or something, so he hasn't ran into the older man either.

His life is falling apart around him and he can't believe it. He's falling to pieces without Evan and he doesn't know how to stop it. Doesn't know how to stop the downward spiral. He knows one way, but it's impossible and he doesn't get his hopes up because he know that they will only be crushed in the end. Evan isn't coming back.

"Hank?" Oh, great. Had he slipped so far into his depression that he's actually hearing Evan's voice?

"Hank." This time the voice is accompanied by a soft, warm hand stroking his cheek. He must be more insane with pain than he realized......

"Hank, look at me." Evan's voice is firm and he opens his eyes to meet the blue gaze of the one person who could put his world back together.

"I'm sorry." Evan says, eyes flicking down for a moment.

"No, Evan. I'm the one who's sorry. I knew I was hurting you and yet I kept doing it. I'm just glad you're back. You are staying, right?" Hank reaches out and clutches at Evan's shirt, afraid that if he lets go, Evan will be gone again.

"Yeah, I'm staying. I just.........I need you, Hank. Always have." Evan settles on the couch beside Hank.

"I need you too." Hank pulls him in for a sweet kiss.

"I love you." Evan whispers after they break the kiss.

"I love you too. Always and forever. I'm not going to hurt you anymore. It hurt so much to cause you pain. I'm so sorry." Hank bows his head.

"I know. It's okay now. It's over." Evan soothes.

"Don't ever leave me." Hank hugs him fiercely.

" I won't." Evan returns the hug.

All is well again, but is it happily ever after?
