Reid/Tyler
"Reid, no, I can't take that."
"Take it, Ty, it's a gift."
"But, Reid... it's your dad's and—"
"My dad's not going to need it six feet under."
"He gave it to you, though."
"He gave it to me to give to the person I love, and I'm just doing as he told me to."
Well, that had Tyler opening and closing his mouth a couple of times in an attempt to comprehend what Reid had just told him and speak at the same time.
"Take it, please?"
"But all I did was take you to dinner. It's not fair—"
"It's our fucking anniversary, Tyler, not a competition to see who gets the better gift."
"I know, but—"
"Do you love me?"
"I—what?"
"Do. You. Love. Me?"
"Reid, don't be stupid, you know I do."
"Then, take it, shut up, and get naked in my bed already."
Tyler sighed and held out his hand hesitantly. Reid took it with a surprisingly gentle hold and slid the ring onto one of his fingers before running the pad of his thumb over the carvings and jade stone in it.
"Reid... you don't have to—"
"I want to."
