Luke and Reid were laying in bed in each other arms naked after having incredible sex. Reid was in total bliss. I'm so happy having you in my life," He kissed Luke on top of the head.
All of a sudden a bight light entered the room.
"What the fuck," Reid said.
Luke got out of Reid's embrace and started walking towards the light.
"Luke, where are you going?"
'Where you can not follow. I can't be in your life Reid. I'm dead." With that Luke went into the light and it disappeared. Reid was in the bed room all alone.
"LUKE!"
"Reid, Reid, Reid,' Katie was shaking Reid who was in bed asleep. Reid woke up startled. Katie ran her hand on Reid's shoulder. 'It's ok sweetie it was just a bad dream.'
Reid pushed Katie's hand away and turned his back from her. 'I told you Katie to leave me alone."
'Reid I have for four days, but not today."
"Why not?" He snapped. Reid then heard hangers hitting each other. He sat up and looked towards his closet. He saw Henry going through his clothes. 'Henry what are you doing in my closet?"
'Looking for a suit for you to wear at the service. I think this one." Henry took out a black suit and a white shirt out of the closet. He then quickly turned around. 'Did you just call me Henry."?
'Yeah, that's your name. What service are you talking about?"
Then it dawned on Reid that it was the day of Luke's memorial service. Four days ago Luke had been killed in a terrible car accident. His car exploded with him in it. At first the Snyder clan and Reid didn't believe it was Luke, but after a thorough investigation by Margo and Jack, with finding Luke's engagement ring on the body and also Bob Hughes ran DNA and teeth X-ray's three times for accuracy. All the results were conclusive. Luke Snyder was dead.
Luke's parents had decided to have Luke's body cremated since his body had been badly burned in the accident. Even though he was dead they didn't want to bury their son in that condition. Almost all of Luke's ashes were going to be scattered at the Snyder Pond. The rest would go to Reid and when he was ready and the time was right he would take them to Dallas where their romance had started with their first kiss.
'I'm not going," Reid lay back down and pulled the covers over his head.
Katie and Henry looked at each other. "Henry can you go in Reid's bathroom and start the shower for him. He likes the water steamy hot and also he needs a shave. His shaving kit is under the sink,"
'Right away Bubbles,' Henry headed to the bathroom.
"I'll make you some breakfast," Katie got up off the bed.
Reid sat up in the bed. 'Did you hear a word I just said? I'm not going,"
"I did, but you're going, even if I have to drag you by your tie or Henry has to carry you,' Katie said sternly.
"Kat..."
Katie sat back down on the bed. "Reid I know how hard it is losing someone. When I lost Brad I didn't want to go to his funeral, but I knew if I didn't I would regret it. You will regret not going to Luke's memorial. I will be there with you thou and also at Snyder pond.'
'I should have gone with Luke that Night."
'No Reid, No. I know this is a terrible thing to lose the person you love most in life. I wish you didn't have to go through it, but you can't think that way. Luke would want you to go on with your life, to live it.'
Tears started falling down Reid's face. "How do I do that?"
"It's not easy, but you take it one day at a time and I'll be there with you,"
Reid hugged Katie and cried and she did to with him
Reid finally got ready for the service with Henry's help. Katie made them breakfast at which no one talked the whole meal and then they all headed to Luke's memorial service.
Reid had wanted to sit at the back of the church, but Lily wouldn't here of it. "I want you to sit with your family Reid who needs you and who you need.' She said teary eyed. She grabbed his hand and led him to the front of the church where the rest of the Snyder clan was sitting. She sat down by Holden and patted the empty seat next to her. Reid sat down.
The service had been some what lovely. Everyone talked of Luke and their memories of him.
Everyone laughed at Casey's story of having to one time pretend be Luke's boyfriend.
Holden talked of how courageous Luke was with everything he went through in his life.
Both Reid and Holden had helped escort Lily off the podium when she had broken down in the middle of talking of her loving and caring son.
At one point Henry and Paul had escorted Noah out of the church for when he was just ranting and raving that if he and Luke had still been together he'd still be alive.
After the service everyone headed to Snyder's pond where they each took a handful of Luke's ashes and sprinkled them on the pond. Reid was the last one to sprinkle Luke's ashes on the pond. "Good bye my beloved." he said as a tear fell down his face.
Some where at Sea on a boat a man was storming through the corridors and he was furious. As he headed to the room he had visited everyday the last few days, some one came out of that room.
"How is he Gerald?"
'He's got a concussion and he's bruised. He'll be ok though. I sedated him as you ordered.'
'Good,"
"What of Hugo?"
The man sighed. "I took care of him. I told you guys at the beginning, if he tries to escape find him, sedate him and take him back to his room. You guys are not aloud what so ever to hurt him, the man said sternly with anger.
'I understand sir.'
'You and everyone else on this boat better, or you'll face the same fate as Hugo just did."
'Yes sir,"
The man walked passed Gerald and entered the room.
A young man was laying on the bed he was handcuffed to it. He was only wearing black slacks. The shirt he had been wearing had been torn with his attack with Hugo.
The older man walked up to the bed and saw bruises on his stomach and arms he had a few on his face and his bottom lip had been bleeding.
I'm sorry for what happened. I have taken care of the person who did this to you. You have to know I have never wanted you hurt."
"I wish you would understand what I'm doing is for your own good. I hope in time you will know why I'm doing this. In time you will forget about Oakdale, those you loved and Dr. Reid Oliver.
There was a knock at the door.
'Come in."
A man came into the room.
'Yes Victor.'
"Sir I just wanted to tell you will be in Malta in half an hour."
'Excellent were ahead of schedule.".
Victor left the room.
The man looked at his captive and ran a hand through his blond hair. 'Welcome home my son."'
