Luke Snyder and Reid Oliver were in the kitchen of the apartment the doctor had once shared with Katie Snyder and her son Jacob but now lived in with Luke since Katie had married Chris Hughes. They were sitting at the table which was completely covered in papers and books. Reid was rubbing his temples in exasperation while Luke was babbling excitedly.
"I reserved the Luther's Corner's Church for the ceremony, in case it rains and we can't have it at the Snyder pond." Luke said, smiling. It had been four months since Reid had proposed to Luke and two weeks until the wedding. Reid was now seriously regretting his romantic impulse to pop the question. "Reid, are you listening to me?" Luke asked.
"Hmmm? Did you say something?" Reid asked, startled.
"Reid, come on. This wedding involves both of us. Can't you at least pretend you want to go through with this?"
"I'm sorry, Luke. But if I look at one more picture of seating charts or listen to one more god awful band, I'm going to go out of my mind."
Luke sighed deeply and said, "Fine. You know what? Never mind. I don't know why I ever thought you'd want to get married? Hmm, maybe because you asked me." Luke stood up and started to gather all the papers together.
"Hey! Luke, Luke stop! I didn't say I didn't want to marry you. You know that I do," Reid said, standing up, grabbing Luke's hands, and pulling him closer. "I just can't deal with all this pre-wedding, girlie stuff."
Luke glared at Reid, but the ends of his mouth twitched at Reid's words. "You seemed to like all this pre-wedding, girlie stuff when we trying out foods and cakes for the reception," Luke said, pouting his lips.
Unable to resist Luke's adorable face, Reid grimaced and said, "Fine. What do you want me to do?"
Luke grinned, wrapped his arms around Reid's neck, and kissed the older man. "Promise me that you won't back out on this?"
Reid slipped his arms around Luke's waist and lightly kissed him. "I promise. I love you and I do want to marry you. I meant every word that I said to you when I proposed. I don't go back on my word. You know that."
"Yeah. I know that," Luke said sheepishly. "So do you want me to just do everything and surprise you at the wedding?" Luke smiled.
"No. I'll help. For some unknown reason, I actually do want to be a part of this planning process, but just not tonight. I can't do any more of this today. I have a surgery in the morning and my head is all full of who's sitting next to who and what music is going to play while people who don't get along try not to kill each other."
"Alright. No more tonight, but we really do need to do this, Reid. The wedding's in two weeks," Luke said.
"I know," Reid said and he smiled slightly. "Can we do something else now, though? Like watch baseball or something?" Reid said, pulling away from Luke and turning around.
"Sure. But baseball wasn't exactly what I had in mind," Luke said slyly, grabbing Reid's hand.
Reid smirked and followed Luke to the bedroom.
