I think I forgot to say that I don't own Royal Pains, Hank, Evan, Emily, the Hamptons (too bad) etc.
Hank was still mad at his younger brother when he left the last patient of the day and drove to Emily. His mood didn't get any better in the car. Every driver around seemed to be crazy today. They were either too slow or too fast. "Oh come on!" He said in frustration. Calm down, Henry. It's not their fault.
He arrived at Emily's house, but didn't leave the car. What's wrong with Evan? He's always different, but this... I wish I'd understand you. Hank sighed and got out of the car, when he saw Emily's car coming. "Hey, it's the first time I'm too early."
She got out of the car and smiled at him. "No Hank, it's the first time I'm late."
"Well, it's never too late for this," he said and kissed her long, longer than usually.
"Wow! What was that?"
"I had a bad day. Too much?"
She put her arms around him and pulled him to the door. "Not enough." She smiled, kissed him and pushed him in the house without leaving his lips for a second.
Hank loved her lips. They were warm, full and soft. His hands ran down her spine. She felt so good. "Skip Dinner?" he asked, his mouth still on hers.
Emily's phone rang before she could answer. She looked at the number, smiled at him and answered the call. "Dr. Emily Peck." She mouthed him not to leave and walked to another room.
Hank looked after her, but as soon as she was out of sight, his brother was back in his thoughts. Evan had changed a lot in the last weeks. He often looked restless... Evan has always been kind of hyperactive, but this new restlessness was different. It must be deep inside of him, because Hank had seen it in his eyes more than once. Then again he found his brother more and more quiet. Sad. He's sometimes so sad. I should call him.
He reached into his bag and got his phone. Evan had called him earlier, but as soon as Hank had answered, the call was cut off. That's just so Evan! Just thinking about that silly behavior brought the anger back. But still... he wanted to call his brother. But how could he call Evan without letting him know, he was worried? He didn't want to make it too easy for him. Evan should still learn his lesson. Hank thought about a silly reason to call at home, something that had nothing to do with Evan, but would give him the chance to hear his little brother.
His thoughts were interrupted by Emily. She was back and smiled at him. "Sorry, it took so long. He just wouldn't stop talking."
"A patient? Something important?"
Emily looked up like she had been caught doing something forbidden. "Uh..no! No, just your eh my... my insurance agent." She flushed and turned away from him. "Let's cook."
Hank was confused. Why was she so nervous? "Emily, who was it?"
"Sorry, Hank. It really was my insurance agent. He just had some bad news. He leaves his company and I get a new agent."
He wasn't sure what to think. "Oh, and I guess you were very happy with him..?"
"Yes! He is not just my agent, he's a good friend and a patient and moves to Boston." She knew that she had made a bad mistake, but she tried to convince him that it was as she said. "I'm sorry for my strange reaction. I was shocked... somehow."
Hank decided to let it go. ...false snake... that was what Evan had said... maybe he's right.. but he is jealous that I can't spend as much time with him. He kissed her. "It's okay, baby. Let's cook and then I'll help you to forget your agent." They kissed again and Hanks frustration of the day was gone. It was easy to relax with Emily.
This chapter took a couple of days. Evan-stuff comes easier to me... Dunno y:)
