Chapter 4: Black eye and steamy looks.
Luke was sitting on the couch in his own little world thinking about Reid when suddenly the door bell rang. Luke looked up and stood up from the couch and walked over to the door and answered the door. Luke was surprised to see Reid there. They just made eye contact and didn't say anything for a few seconds.
"Ah, what are you doing here?" asked Luke
"May I come in?' asked Reid
"Nice place" said Reid when he walked inside the house
"What do you want?' asked Luke
"About earlier at the Lakeview" said Reid
"Yeah what about it?"
" I want you to forget what you saw" said Reid
"Noah's the blind guy not me"
"Just don't mention it to anyone Okay. It didn't happen." said Reid
"Tell me the truth about that man's daughter then maybe I'll keep my mouth shut" said Luke\
"I told you Dennis Judd lost his only daughter, he's having trouble getting over it"
"How, how did she die?"
"There was a brain tumor, it was a terminal case. The tumor was located in a place that was virtually impossible to reach during surgery"
"I take it the operation wasn't a success" said Luke
" That all depends what you call a success. I gave the girl a year of life that she wouldn't other wise had"
"A year? So why did he call you a murderer and why didn't you defend yourself"
"What would you liked me to do Mr. Snyder, fight him risk hurting my hands by pushing him in the face
"The guy lost his only daughter she was 6 years old when she died. Could you even imagine that?"
"You know what I think"
"No and I didn't really care to"
"I think you think you deserved that attack" said Luke
"Can we drop the subject I told you what happened so just drop it" said Reid turning to leave
"But what ever you think you deserved or didn't you're a great doctor"
Reid turned around and faced Luke shock written on his face.
"That I am Mr. Snyder and since I've told you everything and you hopefully keep it to yourself you don't have to worry the rest of the day that I'll accidentally kill your boyfriend when I crack open his skull."
"You know what thank you thank you for that mental image here's a thing you don't know Noah's not my boyfriend any more so you don't have to worry about me getting in your way today or ever again" said Luke with a slight smile.
"The two of you broke up?" asked Reid
"Yes"
"Well it's not like I'm not surprised you didn't give the guy much room to breathe. He felt like he had to take care of you most of the time. You're guilt overwhelmed him"
"He said that?"
"He didn't have to it was obvious"
"You know what I think you should leave now"
"Oh what did I do hit a nerve"
"Get out of my house" said Luke as he grabbed Reid by the shoulder's and pushed him by the door.
"I've been pushed enough for one day Mr. Snyder I'd advise you to take one very big step back" said Reid anger but also kind of sexy.
Their faces just mere inches away from each other's there eyes planted deeply into each other's. Luck gently cupped Reid cheek with the black eye and gently soothed it.
"What are you doing Mr. Snyder?" asked Reid calming down and a bit out of breath,
Luke didn't know what he was doing but he liked the feel of Reid's soft skin/ One minute he was pissed off with Reid and the next he was bringing his lips closer and closer to Reid's until he was kissing him. It didn't shock him that he was kissing him it shocked him that Reid was responding back to the kiss and that he was wrapping his arms around Luke. They stopped kissing and looked at each other both wrapped in a tight embrace.
"I should um.. Go I have to take care of my eye before it swells more." said Reid
"Take care." said Luke with a smile.
Reid left and Luke closed and locked the door he leaned against the door and slid to the floor he rested his back against the door, he put his fingers through his hair and smiled.
