Introductions

Luke smiled as he walked out of Oakdale Airport. He was home, finally. He had missed Oakdale. He had missed his family and his friends. And he had missed Reid. He was over the older man, but Reid was entertaining. Not that Siva was boring, but Luke missed Reid's sarcastic., impatient attitude.

"Wow. Oakdale is small."

"You have no idea. Everybody knows everybody and pretty much everybody is related."

"Really?"

"Yep. It's a small, close knit place. I think you'll like it."

"I'm sure I will. So, are we getting a taxi or what?"

"No, my Grandmother said she would send a car for us. And there it is."

"That's a Lexus."

"I told you I came from money."

"Yeah, you just never said how much money."

"Come on Siva. Let's go meet the family."


The Lexus stopped outside the farmhouse.

"This is where you father's mother lives, right?"

"Yep. We'll go in and John here will drop our stuff at the apartment."

"Ok. Thank John. Bye."

"Goodbye Siva. Goodbye Luke."

The young men got out of the car and waved goodbye to the driver.

"Ready to meet the family?"

"Yep, let's do this."

Luke's family loved Siva. Faith and Natalie were a little bit in love with the handsome, older man, as were the rest of the women in the family. The men in the family were just happy that Luke was finally happy.

"So, where are you staying?"

"I got an apartment down town. Near the Lakeview."

"Nice. When can we see it?"

"Soon Mom. We're not even set up yet. We still have to unpack. You can come and see the place next week. You all can."

"Oh great. We can't wait."

"We should go. I promised Siva I'd show him around the town."


"And this is Java's. It's just a coffee house, but you can get snacks as well. And they have the internet."

"Sounds fun. I could actually go for a coffee right now. What about you?"

"Yeah. Me too. Let's go Siva."

Luke ordered their coffees and Siva found them a seat near the door. Minutes later, Luke sat down.

"That took long enough."

"You're too used to Starbucks. This is real, proper coffee."

Siva just laughed at his lover and took a sip.

"Not bad."

"Told you."

"So, when do I get to meet some of your friends?"

"You can meet one of them now."

Luke stood up and approached a couple that had just walked into the coffee house. Siva felt jealousy run through his body as Luke embraced the taller man.

"Siva, this is Noah and Richard. Guys, this is Siva."

They all shook hands and Noah grabbed chairs for him and Richard.

"So, how did you two meet?"

"We were in the same course in UCD."

"Sounds fun. You been together long?"

"It was fun. We've been together nearly three years. What about you?"

"We've been together for three years. Living together."

"You guys. That's great."

"It is. I've finally moved on."

"I'm sorry. Moved on?"

"Sorry Siva. Noah and I were together for a couple of years. We broke up before I went to Ireland."

Siva gave his lover a tight smile. He clearly didn't like the idea of having coffee with his boyfriend's ex.

"Luke, we should go. We still have to unpack. It was lovely meeting you two."

"Uh, yeah. Nice meeting you too."

Noah and Richard were clearly confused at the other couples abrupt departure. As Siva led Luke down the street, the smaller man winced at his boyfriend's tight grip. He shouldn't have told Siva that he and Noah dated. He was gonna be in so much trouble.


A/N Done. R&R please. Next chapter, Siva has an accident while decorating.
