Chapter 12: Outside Hospital
Luke ran out of the hospital.
"Wait" said Reid running towards Luke and grabbing his arm
"You are such a coward" said Luke facing Reid
"Bob told you what's going on?" asked Reid
"Yeah, because you obviously can't speak for yourself" said Luke getting upset
"I was planning on talking to you about it" said Reid calmly
"No, no, no, Reid don't lie to me. I already feel like an idiot as it is."
"You're not an idiot"
"Then why did I take a chance on you?"
Luke was really laying it on thick with Reid for the first time. Opening himself to him.
"I never had a chance did I?" asked Luke sounding hurt
"Luke" Reid softly said
"No, not with competition like that" said Luke before turning away and about to walk away but before he could Reid grabbed him and kissed him just as hard as he kissed him the first time back in the hotel room in Dallas. Even though Luke was angry, hurt, upset, he couldn't help but kiss him back with everything he had in him.
Luke stopped the kiss and they looked into each other's eyes.
"What was that for?" asked a very satisfied and confused Luke.
"For you to shut up and listen to me for once."
"I'm totally lost."
"I'm not selling you out because I'm not letting you go. I don't care what Bob wanted from me I'm not choosing. You both mean too much to me."
Luke was speechless and just smiled at Reid. He moved closer to Reid and gave him a soft kiss on the lips. Luke grabbed his hand and both walked away from the hospital.
