Not as long as I hoped, but still... =D Enjoy!
"Dr. Oliver I'm glad I caught you before you left." Reid had just finished his shift and hoped to make an escape without a nurse asking him to look at a walk-in or with some stupid question about his orders for patients. There's always one he pulled on his jacket hoping Bob would see he was about to leave since another attending was about to take over in like five minutes. Bob of course blocked his only exit. "A nurse informed me Luke Snyder came and asked for me." Reid nodded slowly, usually he had a habit of forgetting little things like people asking for members of staff, but the encounter with Luke Snyder in all honesty he looked forward to the next.
"Uh, yeah he did say something about paperwork with his Foundation and permanently donating money to the Hospital." He patted his pockets remembering that Luke had asked him to pass on information to Bob; he found the paper slightly creased. "Dr. Oliver, explain why exactly was I not informed of Luke's presence." Reid resisted the urge to roll his eyes at the question. "Because Bob, you were in a meeting with the Hospital Board, and I've been told numerous times that interrupting you and the Board would be considered rude." He straightened his jacket and closed his locker with a snap. "I have been trying to improve my manners since everyone keeps bringing it up. A lot." Bob glanced at the bit of paper before tucking it neatly into his lab coat. "Oh yeah he also said he would drop of the paperwork another time."
There was a brief silence as Reid picked up files to take home. "Is there anything else?" he just hoped to God that Bob would thank him and so he could go home. "Yes one final thing, just be wary of Luke Snyder."
Reid's eyebrows rose slowly at the words his expression must have tipped Bob to continue. "He's had a difficult couple months, so just be careful around him."
"Bob, what the hell is that suppose to mean?" Bob simply patted Reid's arm in thanks leaving his question unanswered, Reid stood there for several seconds completely dumbfounded it was a rare thing to happen.
What was the secret about Luke Snyder he seemed perfectible normal to him and he did not exactly have the most normal family. Hell some of the people in Oakdale made Reid seem like his childhood was the most normal thing as they came.
Still he could not get past what Bob had said, was it normal for people to tell others to be very wary of someone? It was either as if whenever Luke Snyder was involved everyone became over-protective or like Katie completely avoided the subject.
