Who? Brendan & Kate
Where? Kate's apartment
When? Saturday evening.
What? Brendan's checking up on the new aunt, and they chat about serious things for once.
Rating? PG-ish, will update if needed.
Working Saturdays was becoming far too much of a habit for Brendan's liking - he was practically bounding out the door once they were off-air, narrowly escaping the discussion about whether or not he would also do Sunday. (No, a million times no!) He pulled off his tie and suit jacket, chucking them into the passenger seat as he got into his car and pulled out of the parking lot.
Honestly, he was just driving along, humming along to some tune on the radio... just driving. But instead of finding himself heading to his own apartment, before he realised what he was even doing, he was on the freeway heading toward Kate. He wasn't even sure if she would be in, and it wasn't as if he could call her now (at least not without crashing!) so he would just chance his luck. As he moved into her neighborhood, he had a thought and made a stop at a 7/11 to buy some ice-cream, chocolate and soda - it seemed necessary. He wasn't sure if she would have ate properly, but he could always phone something if needed. A few minutes later, he was pressing her buzzer and shuffling from foot to foot like a nervous teenager. Would she think he was strange, just showing up out of the blue? Would she even be there? Either way, he just needed to see if she was doing okay.
