Reid knew he loved Morgan.
Morgan knew he loved Reid.
And when they laid together and cuddled, it was like the world disappeared.
Nothing else mattered when they were together.
The safest place in the world for both of them was in each other's arms.
And they both knew that.
So they laid there, smiling, noses touching and fingers interlaced with each other. They laid like that all night…listening to the radio.
Morgan had confessed his love after Reid was rescued from Tobias Hankel. For weeks after that, Morgan helped Reid with his Dilaudid problems. It had now been 4 successful months since he stopped using.
They both laid there, listening to music, in the dead of night.
When I feel you close to me
It's easy to believe
To the depths and back again
To find that I'm still needing
Feel the fear dissipate
When you are everything you are
Feel my soul come awake
You carry me away
Reid snuggled a little closer to Morgan.
When I hurt, when I bleed
You're holding me
Feel you scratching at the surface
Under my skin [2x]
Oh, under my skin [2x]
Morgan held Reid close, kissing his forehead.
Oh the sweet serenity
I'm beautifully addicted
You are more than I can take
I crave you undiluted
You calm the ache, I come awake
When you are everything you are
Feel the fear dissipate
You carry me away
Reid was sad when he heard the song refer to drugs and cravings. But he knew he could live without them, he had for 4 months now. Now all he needed was Morgan. Morgan kept him sane…Morgan made him feel wanted and loved and alive…
When I hurt, when I bleed
You're holding me
Feel you scratching at the surface
Under my skin [2x]
Oh, under my skin [2x]
Oh, yeah
Morgan loved Reid. He loved him so much. He would do anything for him, even if that meant never leaving his side. Reid nuzzled his face into Morgan's neck and smiled. Morgan hugged him tight.
Could I be lost?
Could I disappear?
Could I be lost?
Would you find me here?
Could I be lost in a secret place?
Could I rest in the shadow of your face?
Reid kissed Morgan's neck. Morgan giggled a little at the feeling of Reid's lips. He loved his little genius.
Oh the sweet
(Could I be lost, could I disappear?)
Serenity
(Could I be lost, would you find me here?)
Beautifully
(Could I be lost in a secret place?)
A part of me
(Could I rest in the shadow of your face?)
"I love you" Reid mumbled into Morgan's ear. Morgan laughed and kissed Reid, kissed his boyfriend, kissed the love of his life.
"I love you too, Pretty Boy." He smiled into the kiss. They laid on Morgan's bed, cuddling one another, wrapped in each other's warmth. Listening to their own heartbeats in their chests. They slowly fell into dreams, as the song came to an end.
When I hurt, when I bleed
You're holding me
Feel you scratching at the surface
Under my skin
Under my skin
Oh, under my skin
Oh, under my skin
Oh, under my skin
Oh, under my skin…
