Five Years On: Part 2
A/N - exactly what the title says, some people wanted more of my story Five Years On so here is the part two of a planned 3. The first story was the proposal, part 2 is the preparation for the wedding. ATWT is not mine and neither is Luke or Reid, believe me if they were there would be no doubt about the endgame. Enjoy!
Reid was sat on the sofa in his and Luke's apartment or as it had become known lately Wedding Planning Central. For the past two hours Luke, Lilly and Lucinda had been talking about colour schemes, often asking Reid's opinion but he barely had time to open his mouth to respond before they had moved onto the next one.
Reid glanced at his watch, thankful that the time for escape had come, standing up he gathered his jacket from the arm rest of the chair and started towards the door.
"Where you going?" Luke asked, Reid sighed,
"To crack open someone's skull, it's a damn sight easier than this!" and he left. By the time he got out of his car at the hospital car park he regretted the way he had spoken to Luke, he loved him, that's why he was marrying him but for the last 3 months they had barely been alone, between Luke's work and his position as Chief Of Medicine there wasn't time to breath during the day but the nights were normally their's but with the three L's as Reid had started to call Luke and his mother and grandmother planning everything down to the last brain numbing detail they hadn't been able to just crash on the sofa and watch a movie or go out for dinner then walk home hand in hand. In a way their planning everything was good because it meant that they were able to have the wedding soon and that's what Reid wanted, to be married to Luke. As he reached his office he decided that he had been awful so he pulled out his cell phone as he sat at his desk, praying that Luke would answer.
"Hey." Luke's voice said over the line.
"Hey, Luke. I'm so sorry about the way I acted, really, I am, I just miss you.""You're really sorry?" Luke asked and Reid could tell from his voice that Luke was pulling the puppy dog eyes even though he wasn't there to see them.
"Yeah I am Baby."
"I miss you too, all this planning, its getting in the way of us, the little time we have alone together is so important."
"God, Luke what have you done to me? I never thought I could feel like this about someone."
"I know the feeling, how about this then, tonight is us, me and you, movie on the sofa, few beers, pizza and then early to bed?" A sly smile found it's way onto Reid's face,
"Early night?"
"Yeah. Then one final push next week and then all the planning is done and you will have two weeks left as a free man."
"Well if living as a free man is not being married to you then I don't want to be a free man anymore."
"I love you Reid."
"Love you too Lukey." Reid was just about to hang up before Luke said,
"Oh Reid, there is something I need your help with."
"Yeah?"
"Yeah, names."
"Names?"
"Yes, is it going to be Snyder - Oliver or Oliver - Snyder?" Luke said with a smirk on his face, he very much doubted that Reid was going to change his name so you can imagine his surprise when Reid said,
"Oliver - Snyder."
Well? What did y'all think? Let me know!
