"You're sure this is what you want, staying at a hotel until your visit is over?" Andrew checked, holding his phone in his hand. All of her brothers were now standing around her hospital room as she packed her bag.

"Why doesn't she just stay at my place while Alana and I are on our honeymoon? Luke is staying with Derek, so my place is empty." Lyle's voice echoed from the phone.

Stuffing a shirt into her bag, she zipped up her bag that was sitting on her hospital bed. "Your sister is standing right here." She called over her shoulder so her brother could hear her through the phone. "And I appreciate all of you wanting to lend your homes, really I do. It was harder than I thought to leave and it's going to be hard to leave again. So I'm going to need some time to adjust before I go, okay?"

The room was silent for a moment before her brother Derek chimed in a simple, "Okay. But you need to come see all of us before you leave. No running off like you did last time."

"I promise I will see all of you before I leave." She assured, looking all of them in the eye. "I just need a few days to wrap things up."

"I'm with Derrick. We'll be back by the end of the week, so I expect to see you then." Lyle's voice rang from the speaker.

"Oh trust me, I'm not going anywhere until those test results come in." Jill told them, locking eyes with Derek who only nodded and then disappeared out the door.

"I will hold you to that." Lyle paused. "Tell Hank I said hello."

"I will." And just like that, he had disconnected the call. Jill was left leaning against the bed, deeply sighing. "Well that went better than expected." Andrew stepped forward, standing at the end of the bed. "You have to understand that none of us were happy when you left the first time."

"If it had been my choice, I would have stayed a few more days to wrap things up, but they needed me immediately and my boss expects me to go back."

"I know." Andrew added softly. "And I will talk to all the family about it. Doesn't mean we won't miss you, you know." She gave him a tired smile, just as the nurse walked in with a wheelchair. "I think that's your ride."

She resisted the urge not to roll her eyes as she grabbed her bag off the bed. "Mrs. Casey. It's so good to see you again." The blonde haired nurse wrapped her arms around her.

"Callie."

"Hope you don't mind, but Haley was a little tied up with a patient, if you know what I mean." The nurse winked, as if there was a mutual understanding between the two of them.

"Oh, this place hasn't changed a bit." Jill remarked with a wide grin, as she sat down in the wheelchair.

"You know it."

"I wish I knew what the two of you were talking about." Andrew announced, walking closely behind them as they made their way down the hall. For the most part, everyone was busy doing their jobs. Two EMT's came flying through the hospital doors with a head trauma in tow, which brought back some memories for Jill. She watched them go by in an instance and the rush of adrenaline filled her chest, causing her to take in some shallow breaths.

"You okay?"

Jill shook her head to get rid of the not-so-distance memory of her car accident. "Yeah. Seeing that head trauma, I guess it just brought up some old memories."

"Have you had these flashbacks very often?" Callie checked as they continued on to the parking lot.

"Actually, this is the first time I've had them in a really long time. Maybe it's the trauma that came in, or maybe it's riding down the hall in a wheelchair. It just brought back something that I haven't thought about for awhile."

"Okay well, I'm trusting you know what to do if things get any worse."

"I do." Jill nodded as they crossed the street into the parking lot. As soon as the car came into view, Jill stopped her. "I think I can walk from here. Thank you, Callie."

The young nurse pulled her into another hug after Jill stood up. "It was really good to see you again, Jill."
"It was good seeing you too. I'm sorry. Callie, this is my brother Andrew. Andrew this is Callie, the head nurse at Hamptons Heritage."

"It's nice to meet you."

"You too. I've heard so many good things about you." Callie shook his hand back as he used his car remote to unlock the silver Civic that was parked between a forest colored truck and a white pickup.

"Only good things I hope."

"Don't worry, nothing bad." Callie smiled reassuringly as she touched Jill's shoulder. "I should get back to work. You take care."

"Thank you." Jill watched her leave, taking a second look at Hamptons Heritage before hopping into the passenger side.

"So, I got your email." Divya walked into the guesthouse later that afternoon. Hank had just poured himself a steaming cup of coffee, and turned around at the sound of her voice.

"Oh good." Hank looked relieved as he took a gentle sip. "Do you think you'll be able to come?"

"I should be able to. Since I'm taking the day off, my schedule is free for a family dinner." Walking casually towards the counter, she took a seat on the middle stool. "Does that mean that you and Evan-"

"No, we still have our differences." He raised an eyebrow, then cupped his hand around his mug. "Just know that we're working through things."

"So is that why we were having a family dinner?" She carefully inquired. "By the way who all is coming to this family dinner?"

"You, me Evan, Paige-" He rattled off with a casual shrug. "Speaking of brothers, I'm wondering where mine is." Just as he uttered that, Evan walked through the door with a bunch of grocery bags in hand.

"Sorry, I'm here. I was just shopping for what feels like an army of people." Setting the grocery bags down on the counter, Evan looked up at Hank with a confused glance. "Why are we having a family dinner?"

"I just asked that same question." Divya replied, both looking over to Hank for an answer.

"That's just something you two are going to have wait until tonight to find out." He pulled out his phone that was buzzing in his pocket, and excused himself from the conversation."This is Hank-"
-

Jill opened the hotel door wearing a white short sleeve shirt and dark blue jeans. "Hey, thanks for picking me up." She told Hank, opening the door wider so he could step in while she grabbed her pink sweater from edge of the bed.

"Of course. How are you feeling?"

"Considering I just got released from the hospital this morning, I'm actually feeling pretty good." They walked down the floral tan and red carpet. "I have to admit, I was a little surprised when you called to tell me that you had something planned for tonight."

"I thought you should have at least a couple homemade meals before you leave."

She smiled."So I take it you're cooking then?"

"I put something in this afternoon."

"Wow, you really know how to make a girl feel special." Jill teased, pushing the down button for the elevator. "I want to know what happened to me taking it easy?"

"I literally got through the front door of the hospital and knew that what I prescribed wasn't going to work. I considered that at least if you came for dinner, you'd be surrounded by two doctors."

"Okay, so now we know why you invited me to dinner." She feigned being shocked by his motive. "How do you really feel about me coming back?"

"Honestly, I'm a little shocked. I wasn't expecting your phone call for at least another two or three years from now."

"Yeah well, I wasn't expecting to come back so soon." She mentioned as he allowed her to enter the elevator first. "But when my brother mentioned he was getting married, things worked out where I could take off for a week and come back to the Hamptons."

"Well, I'm sure everyone will be glad you're back." Hank mentioned as the gravitational pull brought them down to the main floor of the hotel.
