This sounds like what is known as a "file association" issue. Your computer's 
desktop is perhaps associating .py files with the python2 executable. I do not 
use Windows, but I believe you can adjust these associations.

However, the first question (to verify that this is the issue) is: if you 
deliberately invoke python2 and execute your code with it, does it behave the 
same way as when you currently double click on the file?
