*Y/N'S POV


The tornado stopped after a couple more minutes, everybody was out in the living room again. Hank and I drove back to my house. He dropped me off as I have to fixed my house and he has somewhere to go. After a couple of hours, I heard my phone beeped. I looked at it and saw it was Hank, who messaged me.


HANK

Me and Judge talked again. No shouting, I promise. We're on good terms again. Can I stay over with you tonight?

Y/N

Yeah, sure. I'll prepare dinner for us.


I began preparing some spaghetti with meatballs when I heard a knocking sound at my door. I went to open the door and saw it was Hank with a small bag on his hand. 

"If you need to wash up, go up my room. You can use my bathroom there." I told him.

"I will. Thank you for this." Hank said as he closed the door behind him.

"You're welcome. Come down if you're done. Dinner's almost done." I said as I walk in the kitchen to finish dinner. I began putting the cooked pasta in the sauce and began mixing. I put the spaghetti in the plates and put some meatballs in it. I placed the plates on the table and I began cleaning the kitchen while I wait for Hank to go down, as soon as he went down, he got a red wine from my fridge and two wine glasses. He opened it and pour us in the glass as we both took a seat facing each other.

"Thank you for this, Y/N." 

"You're welcome, Hank." The two of us began eating and we began talking about his father.

"Dad talked to me about Lisa." He said and I stopped my action. I began playing my food with my fork without looking at him. And I can feel that he is looking at me, trying to read my mind.

"What did he say?" I asked softly.

"He was sorry for belittling my marriage. He said that no marriage was good. He even asked if me and Lisa could work out and make each other happy." I grabbed my glass and took a sip of my wine and finally look at him.

"Hank, are you sure about the divorce?" I asked him.

"Y/N, what do you ask me that?" 

"What do you think about Lisa?" 

"All I know is she's still doing it with her so-called friend."

"Hank." I called out to him and he directly looked at me. "Are you sure with the divorce?"

"Yes." He simply said without a doubt. "I've been thinking about it for the past 6 months. I tried working it out with her, but she kept doing it. I don't want to be hurt anymore. To be honest, I haven't felt hurt this past weeks, because it was you who ended the pain that I've been feeling. You changed my pain every damn time with love, and that made me feel very happy. And Lauren notices it. I love you, Y/N, I do. In order for us to work, I have to finally end what's meddling our relationship, which was Lisa and I's divorce." He said as he held my hand across the table. 

"I love you too, Hank. Just promise me you'll finish the divorce then after that, we can maybe see where will that lead us." I said and he smiled big. 

"I promise, I will." He said and we continued eating.


~THE FOLLOWING WEEK~


Hank asked me to accompany him and Judge at the lake. I know it's Wednesday and it was the Judge's time for chemo. I told Hank that I'll meet him there since I'm finishing a trial today. After the trial, I went to the lake. Glad I'm only wearing my slacks, black sandals, suit and blazer. I removed my blazer and roll up the sleeves of my suit as I walked to the lake house. When I went inside, I saw Judge and Dr. Morris playing chess with a machine connected to Judge.

"Hey Judge, hey doc." I said.

"Hi Ms. Y/L/N." Doc. Morris said.

"Hey Y/N, here to visit me like what you do to Mary?" Judge joked and we all laughed.

"Judge, I always visit you like Mrs. Palmer. How're you feeling, judge?" I asked as I patted his shoulder lightly. I felt him tap my hand that is on his shoulder and looked at me with a smile.

"Been better." He said. "Henry's outside. Go look for him." I nodded and I patted Judge's shoulder before I left to see Hank sitting on the double deckchair. I got my hair tie and made a messy bun as I walked near him. 

"I guess you were waiting for me, mister?" I said as I walked near him while finishing y messy bun.

"You look very sexy." He complimented as he looked at my whole outfit.

"Hmm..." I hummed in agreeing as I take a seat beside him.

"And you, you look problematic."

"Always." He said as he leaned in to give me a kiss on the lips. I answered back to his kiss and I wrapped my arms around his neck.

"God, I love you." Hank said.

"I love you too." I said and he moved his kisses to my cheek and in my neck. I slightly moan at the feeling of his lips, when I heard my phone rang. I got my phone from my pocket.

"Hank, I'm going to answer my phone." I said.

"Answer it honey, I don't care. I'm busy." He said while he carried me into his lap and I gasped. 

"Such a naughty man." I said. Then I answered the call.

"Hello?" I answered then, I widen my eyes at the news. I patted Hank's shoulder for him to stop and as soon as he stopped, I walked near the shore and I put my other hand in my forehead with the news that shocked me. "Okay... Bye." I said as I ended the call. I put my phone on my pocket and I put my hands on my face as I sighed with a heavy heart.

"Honey, what's wrong?" I heard Hank said as he went near me and turn me to face him.

"My witness got killed." I said and I sighed. "Fucking hell!" I groaned as I began to pace.

"Hey, hey. You need my help? I can help you with your case." Hank offered.

"Babe, I got this. You've got a lot on your plate, with judge and your divorce. I can do this." I smiled at him and he also smiled back.

"You're a strong and an intelligent girl. I believe in you." I went to kiss him on the lips and I felt him wrapped his arm around my waist, while the other hand, caresses my face.

"I'm feeling better already." I said softly.

"Then, you get a lot of kisses." He said and I chuckled. Then, we heard another phone call, but it was Hank's. I broke the kiss, but he manages to get his phone while he kissed my neck. 

"Hello?" Hank answered the call. He put his head on my shoulder and I began massaging his head. "Okay, thanks." Hank ended the call and he looked at me. 

"Who is it?" I asked him.

"The verdict will be tomorrow." He said.

"You want me to come with you?" I asked him. He only nodded his head and I hugged him to me. 

"You'll be fine, Hank." I said and I felt him lay a gentle kiss on my neck as he hugged me tightly to him. 

"I will be cause you're here with me."
